Working for Google for free?

Yes. Decimal time almost happened in France during the revolution, but fixing all the clocks was impossible so people kept their standard clocks, so they kept the old habit...

My advice in the situation when someone wants to "free RAM": "You bought it, better use it."

It always felt strange that people buy lots of RAM but want it to be kept unused...

Same as:

    find . /

Don't get why there's quoting here.

I like the simplicity of passwordstore. But keepassx* are good too. I'll never trust an online solution, and probably almost never trust a browser extention.

Which is close-source (or I didn't find it in their github repo).

In someone lands here seeking a maintained compiler for Python, there's a lot, on top of my head:

- Pythran (https://pythran.readthedocs.io) (ahead of time compiler) - mypyc (https://mypyc.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) (ahead of time compiler) - cython (ahead of time compiler) - Numba (JIT) - Pypy (An interpreter doing JIT compiling) - Nuitka (Ahead of time, IIRC)

At this point we should build a "Awesome Python Compilers" repo ... oh wait, it obviously already exists: https://github.com/pfalcon/awesome-python-compilers

It's a good habit which ensures pip runs with the same interpreter as your `python` command.

One example (but there's many): On Windows a `pip install --upgrade pip` can't work as the OS would lock the `pip` executable, while a `python -m pip install --upgrade pip` works as the OS would lock python instead.

I also encontered environments (CI runners, things like this) with `python` and pip installed, installed but no `pip` shortcut.

I don't see the dumpster fire here:

$ python -m pip install west

That's it, no venv, no sudo.

pip will install it in ~/.local/ so you'll need a:

    PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin"

to get it to your path.

A deadly virus caused a mass vaccination? We already knew.

True. There's a demo prooving it: https://wiki.mobian-project.org/doku.php?id=wake-mobile

(Tested on my PinePhone on Mobian: it works!)

Just the built in managers. Other are worse: they do vendor locking for profit.

Upgrading dependencies is also a way for me to resolve issues, so I don't fight it.

Why you no host? (https://yunohost.org/) ;)

As the author, I'd add logtop:

    tail -f /var/log/nginx/access.log | cut -d' ' -f1 | logtop

as a live updating replacement for a |sort|uniq -c|sort -gr|head

man locate

Just choose one that pleases you / make sense for you.

I mean, email is federated, let's use it this nice feature wisely and stop trying to get everybody on the same service.

To answer your question I'd vote for Tutanota or Protonmail.

I'm using a Pinephone since ~6 month now, and I don't feel the need to turn back, if one anecdote do weight in your stats :D

This is typically the kind of idea that I don't understand: docstrings are here so the developer can state what *needs* to be stated here (the *not obvious*) the why, the how, the known limits...

Taking a comment as an example, compare:

    if is_even(x):  # if x is even

and:

    except UnicodeError as err:  # Can happen on malformed IDNA.

One is not usefull (but can be derived automatically), the other one IS usefull to understand the code, but *can't be derived automatically* (without a deep understanding of the used libraries behind the various calls in the try statement).

You're not alone :D

As I use Debian in production ($DAYJOB, https://afpy.org, https://hackinscience.org, https://mdk.fr, ...) it make sense to also use Debian to develop (which I use since Woody), so I have Debian on my laptop and even on my phone (mobian exactly) :D

Next target of music industry: Firefox & Chrome, because they also allow for listening their music on Youtube.

Shameless plug : I wrote a tool to watch DNS updates at the authoritative nameserver : https://github.com/JulienPalard/dnswait

DNS propagation is a lie!

I'm still using r2e (rss2email), that's all I need.

Some even transforms them to servers: https://youandjerrycan.org/

as the author of https://github.com/JulienPalard/dnswait I agree \o/

I also use Pricacy Badger from the EFF.

The API is being worked on: https://github.com/django/django/pull/14843

We just need a compose key, stop trying to do better.
