Came here to say the same - fork.dev is awesome.

I used to be a CLI git guy but haven't used it in years now

I share this. I quickly grow irritated by Fry’s elaborate language when in written form.

Like any skillful rhetorician, he constructs with an eye toward the intended medium. When that's prose, it reads a lot more smoothly than here.

That's right: his books are very readable.

(With a couple of his novels I felt that if he had made them a bit less entertaining and a bit more pretentious and if he weren't already famous as an actor and comedian then probably they would be taken seriously as "literary fiction". I'm thinking of "The hippopotamus" in particular.)

Same experience here in the UK. My 2016 Model S P90D that I’ve had since new is now valued at ~$30k. 12 months ago it was ~$55k. It has lifetime free supercharging, free premium LTE connectivity (maps, spotify etc) and £0 annual taxes (due to tax laws here, a newer equivalent EV would now be due ~$500 a year). It’s done 50k miles and charges at 130-150kW, range is 180/220 miles in winter/summer.

Whoever buys it when I sell it later this year will get an amazing car.

Hmm you obviously had a bad experience with your Tesla, I want to contrast it with my experience - I bought a new Model S in 2016 and still own it now. I owned ~10 cars prior (both non-premium e.g. Ford/VW and premium cars e.g. AM/BMW) and it is the best car I've had both in terms of running costs, failure rates and practicality (luggage space, good for family etc). I've now 8 years old, covered ~60k miles (I don't commute in it) - still has ~85% range it had when new and has been back to Tesla perhaps 4 times total in that time. That said, I've heard a lot of horror stories from others re. Tesla ownership - thankfully, I've not seen it myself.

Musk's antics have turned me off the brand a little but based on my experience, I'd buy another.

I would love this paired with sharing photos of certain faces in (eg our children with my wife). Perhaps a dynamic album (with a list of faces) that I could then share.

This is on the cards. Thanks for reinforcing the importance :)

So the shower drains through it and the 'wrap around' pipe is the input to your hot water tank?

No, it preheats the cold water connected to your shower. Warmer cold water means you need less hot water to achieve the same temperature in the shower.

Ah yes, that’s much neater and more localised. Thanks

Can I use this to replace some rsync cronjobs I have? I'd love to convert them to 'streaming' rather than updating every few minutes when the cron fires.

This is extremely similar to my DevOps role. Company about 250 ppl, 4 DevOps engineers.

As a ex-product lead (full stack dev) and head of engineering, the “we developers want only to code” winds me up so much.

Just because your code worked once and now another dev has (badly) applied a framework upgrade, doesn’t mean it’s DevOps’ job to find out “why the build is broken” and fix the incompatibility between your old code and the new framework.

Agree with this. Twitter is by far and away my favourite platform for consuming stuff from (mostly) others in my industry and OS intel on things like the Ukrainian war.

I can’t remember blocking anyone in recent memory and follow ~350 people. I’ve also had some of my best customer service experiences there, typically from places that, without twitter, I’d have to phone and spend hours on hold.

My simple rule for anything on my phone is that I’m extremely tight on what app I give notification rights to. I can count on one hand how many apps have that ability and twitter most definitely isn’t one of them.

Interesting post. Would you share your tools and personal tracking techniques here?
