Probably because you have to be able to crimp that connector as simple as possible, without too much tooling OR training needed.

You literally can train anyone, as non-tech as possible, to crimp 8 wires with a $5 tool in 5-10 minutes.

Not only that, but it's also fairly potent, allowing you to pass variables from one request to another, transform response, inject .env vars etc.

If all of your team is using Jetbrains products, you can also add the http files to the version control so everyone could have the requests ready to use.

In other words: it's a beast

BTW, you might also find useful to know that you also have a very powerful SQL environment as well ;)

Is it just me or having the xdebug integration as a pro feature seems ... odd?

Edit: mysql is a pro feature too!

Most likely, no.

Not using the mobile version that much, so I can't give feedback on that, but the desktop player is getting worse and worse for the past few years: searching, discovering (by browsing), library/playlist management etc.

It's like the Spotify guys are not even using Spotify anymore :)

@retrocryptid: probably you're looking only at the images from the article, but it seems it's a full keyboard. And it's symetrical AND programable so you can customize it as you wish.

Back in the day we made fun of this nonsense, now we freakin glorify it with libraries like Tailwind & friends...

> Instead of thinking of that as the "problem" -- maybe it's an "opportunity".

This reminds me of that meme where the hero have an alcohol „opportunity” ^_^

They actually _did_ change it a few months ago.

You can turn on the autocomplete-by-enter by openening dev tools -> settings (f1) -> preferences -> console -> „accept autocomplete suggestion on Enter”

Lol, I was applying asking for my regular rate.

The short version: I was working on and off on upwork for the past... 10 years or so (since they were called elance). Didn't had too many projects (less than 20) and only applying there only for very small gigs, when I had some breaks from my regular clients (a couple of times per year).

Some years ago, one of my client went out of business and I wanted to give upwork a serious go, as I already had _some_ projects there, the account was verified and such.

Start applying on jobs that matched my skill set, asking for my regular hourly rate (hence the audacity). Looking backward, my requested rate wasn't even that high, but that's a story for another time. :)

Dunno how they work now, but back then they had a certain amount of credits every month that you could use to apply to jobs. IIRC, you could apply to 10-15 jobs every month with those credits.

Which I did.

I applied to about ten jobs, on most didn't had any replies from the client (they either closed the job or picked someone else), but the gist is that I didn't get any job.

One day, I get an email where the gist was: you weren't able to get any clients with your credits, so we don't need you. Same as OP, tried to contact them, but the decision was final and that's that. Fortunately, I didn't loose anything but some internet points :)

You go through an addmission process that's pretty much similar to an employement process (several interviews, technical interviews, tests etc).

After you get in, most of the jobs you get are strongly limited to your particular skill (so you won't be able to see what coding jobs are available if you're a designer).

Then, the customer aquisition process is slightly different, as you don't talk straight to the client while you're „bidding”, but with a recruiter, who deals with selecting the right candidate for a job.

Finally, for most of the jobs you don't even have to _apply_, as recruiters constantly send you messages for potential jobs.

Now, upwork & freelancer are mostly a race to the bottom; I personally got banned from upwork for having the audacity to apply to jobs and not winning any (because I didn't wanted to work for peanuts).

Depending on your budget, take a look at the MoonLander/Ergodox [1] or Kinesis [2].

You can also take the DIY path, with stuff like Dactyl, Sofle etc.

Mostly related to hosting requirements, thus hosting pricing.

For a PHP application (CMS or anything else) you rarely need something more than „upload these files on your FTP”.

For other languages you need access to CLI. And know-how on how to do this. And (sometimes) elevated access to install stuff.

The only downside of O365 is that custom email domain requires you to have domains from godaddy.

Man, that pink background with black text feels SOOO good...

Depends _very_ much on how you define productivity.

Is your job moderating a big forum? Then no, you can't really bost anything.

Is your job writing about various topics? If this requires documentation, with a bit preparation before hand, sure, you can be super productive.

Is your job coding? Offline manuals will get you a long way (assuming you don't depend very much on 3rd parties like APIs or package managers).

Now, if we exclude the 1st point, yes, you can, here is how:

1. Get a good pair of headphones. Not necessary with active noise cancelling, but ones that do a good isolation of environment.

2. Download all the tools you will need: manuals, documentations, libraries and whatnot. (back in the day there were lots of site downloaders like httptrack)

3. Download some sounds. Be it music, white noise or whatever suits you.

4. Start doing stuff.

Hint: if this is one-time, long trip, you could use that time to read a book to elevate your skills ;)

Optional implies that user do something very intentional to disable JS.

But there are some cases where things go south without user direct intervention. Just to name a few:

- some edge bug that will render your whole site as a gorgeous white page - some browser extension that mess up with a site - some network configuration/condition that prevent JS loading correctly (think of a broken DNS)

Then you don't have too much of a choice: gitlab all the way :)

We ran an gitlab instance for about eight years and it worked flawlesly[1] for a team of ~20, with quite a few active repos (i.e. constantly pushing), some of them being generously large, running several pipelines on most of them.

PS: gitorious was aquired by gitlab, not gitolite. My bad.

[1]: once we pumped up _LOT_ of RAM into it that is

You may want to give more details about your usecase: do you need _only_ git hosting or other features too (e.g. issue tracker, CI/CD pipelines)? How many users will use this setup? Do you have a dedicated machine or you run it locally (e.g. in a docker container?? Hosting locally or in cloud?

IIRC Gitolite was aquired by Gitlab a while back, Gitweb is not really a git hosting, it's more like a web view of your `git log`

Gitlab needs at least a couple of gigs of RAM to run well, double/triple that if you need CI/CD.

I have no experience wiht gogs/gitea.

I think GitLab somehow acts like this: they have a fully open source product, that you could host yourself for free, then you have a lot of extra functionality that works only for paying users. (tho I'm not sure how that works, if you have access to the code or not etc)

Almost all WordPress premium plugins.

You may want to NOT underestimate one's ability to add TONS of if/elseif/else (or switch/case) statemens in order to put things on track...

There are various cases of „programming hoorrors” stories where you have a calculator implementation that, instead of doing the ... you know, math, will actually go through all X combinations.

Not necessary _longer_ but could include letters too.

You may want to check it the 1Password. Although not free, it provides 2FA integration on both browser and phones.

On the other hand... it may not be the brightest idea to have both password manager AND 2FA in the same baseket, but it may be a good compromise for a lesser secure-demanding services (i.e. those that, if breached, won't affect you in any way other than internet points; think forums, reddit and such).

You should rely more on autocomplete/suggestions.

Typing on a screen it's harder because you can't touch typing (since you don't have any home row bumps); you must gaze at your keys, therefore your eyes HAS to move back and forward between the keys and the whatever text you type.

Curling to that URL gives you this:

    $ curl http://digitaloean.com/  -I
    HTTP/1.1 301 Moved Permanently
    location: http://host.agck.com/

Which basically contains an affiliate link to Vultr.

If you do a whois on that domain you'll see it has nothing to do with Vultr.

If you think about it, The OA wasn't cancelled, was... _finished_, since they ended up in current reality.

Altough I'm sad that the show ended, I'm pretty happy on _how_ it ended.

Every single time I read about how safe and secure FOSS is, I think about this small issue: https://github.com/MrMEEE/bumblebee-Old-and-abbandoned/issue...

Yes, I know it's a decade old, but it's a great example of „open source is better/safer/whatever”.

You only had to hold it differently and you'd have no issues ^_^
