As someone else mentioned here, I'd wager a large part of Synology customers were people who'd have had the technical ability to setup their own NAS server but didn't want to bother, instead electing a "setup and forget" solution. I know that's who I was when I bought my first Syno DS several years ago.

A few months ago I realized I'd outgrown it so I looked into the next Synology solutions, and all I saw were overpriced, outdated hardware that weren't worth DSM's ease of use. Got Ubiquiti's UNAS with a couple of HDDs, a Beelink mini PC, and for a little time and roughly the same budget of a DS, got something far superior in specs and basically matching in ease of use.

Reminds me of how some people mocked me for having O'Reilly and such massive reference books when I started learning Python and Ruby. "But everything's online!" they claimed. Sure, but nothing's faster than browsing the index for what you're looking for and then skimming the section you're interested in, as opposed to going back and forth StackOverflow threads and random blogs. Currently renovating my house and I again bought 400+ pages reference books of plumbing and electricity, largely sparring me the need to endure endless YouTube videos littered with skits, sponsorships etc. Just straight to the point, factual information.

I have a SRAM eTap groupset on my roadbike and really enjoy it. The batteries are super convenient, I only charge them "defensively" once in a while and have never actually run out on a ride. If I had, I could have swapped the one of the front derailleur, which is significantly less used, with that of the back derailleur, and ride another few hundred (thousand?) kilometers. You could even carry an extra battery just in case. From what I understand, to charge Di2 you need to fully stop and couldn't even charge with a portable battery while moving, but I could be wrong. Seems like SRAM isn't as feature-rich, but is more straightforward and reliable.

Is it just a coincidence that there was an article about this very thing a few days ago here?

Does 5.2 add anything on top of 5.1? The core team added the webpacker gem back in February this year but I haven't checked out yet what they're planning with 5.2.

I don't understand from your comment whether you are aware that Rails 5.1 introduced generators to automatically add Vue, React and Angular (and Elm subsequently)? It sets everything up neatly and allows you to selectively incorporate reactive components where they're needed in your application, without having to go all the way to separating front and backend completely.

Check out Working Copy, which I use extensively but I'm not sure it's what your looking for exactly (I'm not affiliated). I think there's iOctocat if you're just looking for a way to browse github repos.

So refreshing to see a themes website that looks different and is way more functional. Thanks for this! I just wanted to point out that (at least for me) the filters are reset when I try to "order" by Featured, Popular or Newest.

Keep up the good work!
