I’m on my 4th Thinkpad T-series - T520, T530, T450s, T460s - each one was a a winner. I ditched the T5XX series when they borked the keyboard layout by adding a numpad. Used to run Ubuntu, now I run Debian, stable or testing depending on point in release cycle at install time. I plan to take another look at Ubuntu now that they gave up on Unity. A coworker is happily on the T470s (first USB-C in the series). I always get 1920x1080 since my eyes are accustomed to it, but multiple coworkers are happy with 2560x1440. Used to get the Nvidia cards, now very happy with the integrated Intel graphics. In general, last year’s hardware requires almost zero messing with Linux to make everything work, whereas with the latest hardware, be prepared to solve a couple minor issues. Ubuntu’s font rendering or Infinality are both amazing and better than macOS or Win10 to my eyes.

I’m ridiculously excited to eventually upgrade to a T480s because it’s the first in the series to offer a quad-core CPU. They’re selling the quad-core with Intel graphics which is exactly what I want. I hope Lenovo did a good job with the thermal engineering...

Thanks to all the open source developers that deliver this totally rad experience on Linux, Debian, and Gnome <3

Anecdote: I hired an Odin Project "graduate" in early 2015, somebody who had gotten a CS degree 10 years earlier but never done anything with it. The Odin Project had prepared him to hit the ground running on modern web software development, and also prepared him for evaluation for our job, with an impressive capstone project. He was a successful hire without a doubt.

Honest question: is it really that difficult to make your site not broken by ad blockers?

(Your response worries me in that it is an exceptionally convenient argument for sloppy developers not to fix their sites)

Panniers are very luxurious for the reason you cited. Where they fail me is when trying to combine a bicycle leg with one by bus or subway - the backpack wins in these cases because I don't need to remove/re-attach my Ortlieb pannier (which gets to be really annoying even despite Ortlieb's really nice quick release mechanism on their urban models).

I love that if you google "unbeardily," all the results point to this story. Do you think it's a "trap street"?
