His Laundry Files are excellent as well.

Sure, but money talks louder.

Could work around it with stunnel until it's resolved

It would map better to a Django app rather than Flask

Also it literally means "dry".

Interesting. I'm familiar with Israeli tech companies and it's odd they wouldn't buy in.

בהצלחה!

Oh, that's pretty clever. Thanks for the explanation!

I still have fond memories of building a kernel in winter on a P4. No heater needed. Make menuconfig, because the TCL part was too heavy...

As originally built by him, it was indeed just a php website.

In many, many circumstances, code that "does the thing [well enough]" is more than enough. Not everyone works on avionics or pacemakers.

I run Disa as a Messenger replacement

It streamlined the process significantly, lowering the total "handling time" from a couple of hours to ~10-15m in total, which freed up time to tend to custom commissions from clients.

I don't have serious hard numbers before that, as the CRM saw its first commit around sale #6.

My wife has a small business similar to yours, and I ended up building a micro CRM for her, complete with scraping (some of our vendors don't offer an Api), reports, invoicing etc.

Login is a legit surname, though[0].

Absolutely agree with this, I've come to realize I was addicted to the feed. It took, and still does, a significant effort to control the effect (mostly by regulating access on a scheduled basis).

A couple of PB per week, I'd guess

I never turn off BT on my phone, since I don't want to tinker around with it when I get into the car or turn on a wireless BT headset.

I'd definitely get one just for the WiFi boost and the ability to turn it into a caching accelerator proxy for my guest/honeypot VLANs.

If you're logged in, you can blacklist specific topics on Google's Ad Settings page[0] quite easily (you can also turn off tailored ads completely).

I'm usually well into #3 before I realize I'm in too deep

Copied & pasted from an old HN post:

There are three new fields in your profile, noprocrast, maxvisit, and minaway. (You can edit your profile by clicking on your username.) Noprocrast is turned off by default. If you turn it on by setting it to "yes," you'll only be allowed to visit the site for maxvisit minutes at a time, with gaps of minaway minutes in between. The defaults are 20 and 180, which would let you view the site for 20 minutes at a time, and then not allow you back in for 3 hours. You can override noprocrast if you want, in which case your visit clock starts over at zero.

Can't those be "disabled" via the app manager? I'd flash a custom ROM if I had to deal with FB being a "system app"(!).

It would just raise an OSError/IOError/TypeError/ValueError and exit (unless caught).

"oh, this config shouldn't be linked to /dev/null..."

I feel lucky to only have reached item 4; I wouldn't feel confident beyond it, anyway.

Consuming 135g (a cup, give or take) of sugar daily is pretty crazy, nutritionally speaking.

So your code assumes that the network/storage/DB are fault-free? You don't emit logs?

I don't see why not!

Probably not even then. Gaia/Sayshell seem way more fun :)

I think it should be named "the Brickolator" :)
