The real question is: is there a market for privacy-respecting tech services (think Apple's new stance on E2E privacy or laptops like Purism), such that consumers themselves can vote with their own dollars?

Wth happened to pip-tools? The Python ecosystem is a mess...

I said goodbye to VirtualBox the day Docker's Mac/xhyve story rolled out.

Not a single link to Vue.js
