This is a valid point. File explorer is not something that is used very frequently so moving it to the right makes sense.

While that's true, it's sad that the default expectation seems to be "you provide support for me and keep maintaining this thing, and once you can't anymore, you'll find somebody else who does, so that I can keep benefiting for free from all your work".

The default expectation should be that there is nothing promised beyond what's in the license. Anything beyond it needs to be clearly stated, but in the absence of any such statement, don't assume or expect anything.

Note that this expectation is clearly stated in most FOSS licenses. Usually right at the top, IN CAPITAL LETTERS. Having to write an extra blog article that basically says "I really mean what is in the license" is redundant, and it's sad the this has do be done and is even being argued about.

Will the United States Empower Zelenskyy to Negotiate an End to the War?
Great work already! I do have one nitpick, however. Instead of handling click events, it seems to be using a more direct mouse input and acting on the mouse button being pressed. In webpages, this is the difference between onmousedown and onclick events.

This is extremely frustrating, perhaps it was done to give the illusion of speed, or it's a side-effect of the immaturity of the GUI framework? If you click and hold on the tab close button on your browser, and then move your mouse away and depress the button, you have the possibility to abort the action.

Another side effect of this seems to be that the GUI does not respond to presses from a touchscreen (on laptops), which does not behave like a mouse input, but still fires click events that most applications happily accept.
Mozilla bug 13474: external processes/filters for textareas (2002)
In-flight surgery with a coat-hanger and silverware
You’re a curious person and see that the back door to a closed restaurant was left unlocked. You should let them know, but make sure you find out how big of a screw up the closing manager caused so s/he can be dealt with or the process fixed.

You open the door a little and peak inside and see the office door is open. “This can’t be,” you think as you walk into it.

You bet there’s a safe left unlocked and customer reservation left unprotected on the computer, “how irresponsible can these people be…”

If their security is this bad, you wonder what their food safety processes are.

It’s a slippery slope, and maybe well-intentioned, but that doesn’t change the fact that you’re not allowed to wander into this restaurant’s back door or be there when it’s closed, and now that you have, how do you prove you didn’t do anything malicious if the only evidence there is is of you in the restaurant when you’re not supposed to be?

Maybe you can make an appealing public good argument against criminal accusations based on your stellar clean record, but how do you protect yourself from civil suits, which they have every right to spin up if they have damages and can link you to them?
Extremely impressive for a personal project! Great job, if it were mine, I'd be exceptionally proud of it.

I think the heat you're getting here is from the very slick website that makes Lapce look more finished than it is. It might be a good idea to adjust the text to manage people's expectations.

Great job!
Honest question, is there a reason why one wouldn't be able to install Lapce via cargo, e.g., `cargo install lapce`? (I don't know much about distributing Rust applications so be patient with me if it's a dumb question.)
I am not a lawyer, but for example, cracking a game is against the EULA and likely illegal. Releasing a cracker is much worse.
> what will happen in developed country if it can't get gas to produce fertilizer

In Netherlands various farmers invested to switch from gas to alternative sources. These farmers are now way more competitive than before. Netherlands leads the way in technology around farmers. Farmers have huge expenses, these expenses can be reduced by investing. Some invested, some didn't.

What would help is to have more guidance around this. That not every person (and e.g. farmer) needs to figure things out on their own.
Yeah in South America you are much more free to get robbed or murdered.
(I'm talking about Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, not sure what's your preferred country).
The most straightforward way is inflation-linked bonds. It will pay a coupon linked to inflation.

Obviously these must have gotten more expensive since inflation rose. But it will protect you against higher inflation. You'll lose in case of deflation/lower inflation.

Be sure you understand the product before getting into it.
Decorating the Alps with mathematical drawings (2014)
Why do you prefer to wait longer to be paid?
When I lived in France, gas-powered "heating mushrooms" were a common sight in most restaurants and cafés. They basically generate radiation heat so people can comfortably sit outdoors in the early spring / late autumn months. I always thought that this seemed like a capital waste of energy, basically "heating" an unenclosed outdoor space. In the grand scheme of things those heaters probably don't make much of a dent in the overall energy consumption (but who knows), I think we should ban them though as it really sends the wrong signal. Not only a problem in France, in Germany I see them everywhere as well.

“We Cannot Remain Indifferent” – Russian Star-Ballerina Quits Bolshoi Ballet
First thing I tried was ctrl+shift+f to grep through a project, which didn't work. I see the functionality is there, though. Both Intellij and vscode uses this shortcut, so harmonizing with them would be nice. Also the code completions are not clickable with a mouse, and using the "down" key also doesn't do anything.

Anyway, development-wise these are minor issues in a project of this size. Nice work!
At the moment EU but we have done some pilot projects in other regions (Australia)
That seems like a big statement, I still use ST - albeit not for everyday work (I shifted to JetBrains tools), but if I want to knock up a quick script then I will > subl file.ext to quickly knock something up.

If I have big files to open, or I want to do some text manipulation, then ST is what I reach for.

"Completely destroyed" is a bit much, maybe shifted to a different use-case for some people, but for a quick editor that offers a pretty damn good environment to work in I think it still has its place.
Especially in such a situation that status quo is directly financing army of dictator who openly states that all Europe all the way to the Atlantic ocean should be demilitarized, denuked and 'neutral', ie free for grab to anybody, but absolutely definitely maybe not by him. And as we saw in past few weeks he properly walks his talks, so its either acting or being weak and stupid.
Alright, let's look at historical data - who was more successful at fleeing Nazi Germany? The ones who had jewelry in their pockets, or the ones holding a fat bag of reichsmarken? It is THIS obvious.
ok, i’m glad you’ve found an editor that better suits your needs. remember, this is a preference, not a competition. personally, i much prefer the responsiveness & lower memory footprint of sublime, and couldn’t tolerate trading those off for features in atom/code.

maybe this is just the new vim/emacs war :)

Is it "simply" a cloud-connected pilot wire controller? I don't really see anything about what I understand about virtual power plants.

Also, why is a Linky meter necessary, shouldn't it work with any electricity meter?

On another note I don't understand how pilot wires aren't more widespread outside of France. I bought my radiators in France because I couldn't find here anything that would be easy to control, and anything controllable at all was 5 to 10 times as expensive.
Do not put your emergency fund into btc.

Emergency fund should be approx 6 months salary, both easily accessible AND reliable. With the amount of apps refusing to serve customers money and crypto nutjobs manipulating the market, BTC is neither.

I'm in the UK, so I have a 50/50 split between a regular bank account and premium bonds. Once I hit that 6 month salary between the two, it's a split (80/20 as I'm younger and more risk tolerant) of whatever I have leftover every month between a global index fund, and UK GILTs.

Simple, no worries, and basically everything I've seen reccomended since the 1950's.
Yes! Daily meteo has a big impact on the domestic heating consumption
True. But the lack of political will and corruption at all levels is what hampers the process. In my country which lies slightly north of Lithuania, that is huge problem. There, similarly as in Germany former heads of government have lucrative positions in Russia-connected gas companies still.
If you can handle a gun, it is much easier to defend yourself against a bunch of robbers, than the entire state apparatus.
> You don't. Emergency funds are for emergencies.

^^^^

This, this, this and THIS !

Emergency funds = cash = it goes into a boring bank account.

Full stop. No arguments.

If you have to "sell" or "close" something in order to get it, it is NOT emergency funds.

If there are conditions on your access to it, e.g. "n Day Access" then it is NOT emergency funds.

Your emergency funds are sacrosanct. Put them in the most boring bank account with the most boring bank you can find, maybe with two banks just to be safe (if you live in the UK, put it with NS&I where the account is 100% guaranteed by the government, i.e. over and above the £85k guarantee that is available with normal banks).

If you have spare cash sloshing around after you have put a decent chunk aside in your emergency accounts, then you can invest / chase interest rates with that. But DO NOT mess around with your emergency funds.

What is the service you are building? I am trying to build something similar and would love to compare notes.
I'd be pretty interested in a super cheap pen plotter type printer (one that can do multiple pages like a normal laserprinter) and just take regular ballpoint pens.

I hacked my 3D printer to do that, and used it to make our wedding invitations and they turned out beautiful, much much nicer than printing the graphics.
We may not know the long term effects of many new things but our standards for health and safety testing along with increased ability to detect and treat many health problems early definitively give us a big leg up over past generations.
I have to double check this, but the approach should be theoretically sound since we are quite strict with what functions are considered to have known call-sites: Function has to be internal (as in no visibility from outside) + no indirect uses (so no saving a pointer to the function somewhere). This should be enough to solve the problem you are thinking about.
Cap notes. Relatively stable, decent yields and easy to sell when you need to.

Do your research on which is the best yielding. In Australia, at least when I last checked, it's LFSPA.
I personally keep it as FD ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed_deposit ) in different reputed banks. Might sound a bit extreme to divide money into multiple banks but during mid of 2020 in India one of the major banks had stopped its customers from withdrawl of money for period of time (https://www.businesstoday.in/industry/banks/story/yes-bank-c...). 2020 was already an year of crisis and such kind of limitation by the banks had created a lot of problems for the people.

Stocks are not a good option obviously. Current situation is a testament of that. We can see the situation in Russia now where the stock market itself is shutdown (obviously these are exceptional circumstances) but people loose total control over their investments for unknown period of time.
I think your timing is great. Electricity is getting very cheap in Europe sometimes. Being able to hit this "sometimes" as often as possible, combined with reduced grid fees through load throttling, can make heat pumps economical.

If heat pumps become economical, it's a game changer.
Especially since there are much better alternatives - the infra red heaters would heat just the patrons, not the whole air around them, and I'd wager are much more efficient.

And you can always just give out blankets.

The Secret to Happiness at Work
Great, and the if the project you make for a bit more than six months of lots of dedication succeeds people might realize you are an expert in something and try to hire you into a job that is more than full-time and/or doesn't allow other programming with a very nice offer. I would expect you to take that job, but Internet haters will disagree.

Now the project someone chose for its high amount of free unguaranteed support goes off a cliff of no maintainer..

In my experience, I value projects with minimal maintenance over years by a large number of more selfishly invested contributors over the "excited just to be here" projects.
Except for the scroll bar. I vaguely remember from many years ago (maybe it was on Windows or some Linux desktop at the time) that you could put it there. NextStep seems to have used it like that by default, judging from screenshots.
My favorite tactic that I currently deal with at $DAYJOB is an offshoot of this — consensus by intimidation.

Get everyone in a zoom call with every manager and C suite, do something glaringly unpopular that only affects rank-and-file employees, and then ask if anyone has any questions, comments or concerns to a room of crickets.

And then for the vinegar strokes close the meeting by taking about how much you value transparency and openness.

Every single time he’s like suprised pikachu when everyone complains to their teams and it becomes office drama or to their direct manager instead.
If you call numbers I call for sources. If I'd give in to my subjective observations, I'd state the opposite. I have never played Wordle, nor did I talk with anyone about it, nor have I heard anyone talk about it (in person ofc). I don't use Twitter though...

Maybe you're right, but I'd like to see proof of this. After a quick search I found than:

- Flappy bird was downloaded 50M times [1]

- The dev made 50k a day [1] which implies that those 50M were not all 'dead downloads' but actual users

- About wordle, every article I find just states 'more than a million daily players' [2]

So, to make this short, I think you're just picking random numbers that fit your subjective perception. If you can provide proof that says otherwise I'll gladly back off. In the meantime it'd be nice if you don't make any more comments about how many times wordle is bigger than flappy birds then you already did. Your turn.

This +10 (if I could). Whether you really enjoy a bit of mentoring, are just trying to be a nice old man, or it's officially part of your job, you have to be picky about who you mentor, and what the mentoring relationship looks like.

First cut: The kid must have decent emotional maturity, appreciate your advice, and really benefit from it. Definitely don't let yourself be tagged "mentor" until those are clearly established. You ain't signing up to be the long-suffering parent of some teenage rebel.

(That said, my experience with younger folk has not been nearly so bad as Dave3of5's.)
How I got to this? By asking Google "Thunderbird edit reply in external editor", then I've followed the bread crumbs:

=> <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=259633> (18 years old), duplicate of,

=> <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=241583> (18 years old), duplicate of,

=> <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13474> (23 years old), bug still open...

BTW, I used to use `It's all text`, the Firefox addon that allowed one to edit text-areas in external editors, but it broke a few years ago... (Coincidentally or not, that was the time I've also dropped using MoinMoin and other wikis... Also coincidence or not, that was the time I've started using Chromium more...)

The other recommended addon is `exteditor`, but it seems that, just like `It's all text`, it also doesn't work in latest Thunderbird: <https://github.com/exteditor/exteditor/issues/74>...

Is it that hard to ask, in 2022 when we have so many good text editors, to be able to use one instead of the built-in ones?

Perhaps nobody wants this feature? Searching the Mozilla Bugzilla instance shows another story...
I don't know if Brave itself is a cryptoscam. A lot of crypto are blatant scams, true, and another huge chunk are interesting purely as a way to speculate financially.

I don't think the BAT tipping ecosystem fits that pattern: Brave is a normal ad agency that sells adspace for normal money. Second, the BAT they give to users isn't new mints by Brave, it's bought from the open market with a cut from Brave's normal money ad revenue. This means there's always a buyer for the coin, and the sums offered are linked to the normal economy. Means the creators who get tipped BAT can reliably cash it out.

Speaking of things that could keep up with inflation, such as stocks, gold, real estate, Treasury bonds, etc, stocks are by far, the most liquid one, with T+3 days of cash out time. Look for unit trusts (index funds), if you don't fancy picking the stocks.

That said, these troubling times are even more riskier to invest. Perhaps, the best you could do is to prepare for potential supply chain issues with gasoline, LPG, etc.

I happen to stay in Sri Lanka nowadays, where the inflation crossed 16%, and the there are many issues with lack of essentials. Supermarkets don't sell more than 5kg of sugar, me having to drive 20km because the three gas stations I drove past didn't have petrol, and soaring prices of pretty much everything.

I thought to stock up the essentials to last a couple months or so, expecting the imminent worse conditions.

In Europe, though, I don't think things to get this extreme, but my suggestion would he to stock up. Not hoarding piles of toilet paper, but make sure to have a reserve can of petrol, extra medicine, and the essentials to last a month or two. Food prices went up about 20% in just last month here, and that annualized return of 240% I'd much better than the appreciation of gold, real estate, stocks, etc.

I would have loved for Sublime to win here but it lost. Sure there are still users of it but let's not debate here. All youtube videos and pictures I see lately from programmers are using VsCode. In fact, I haven't seen a single Sublime open in a video tutorial for over 2-3 years now. It's not even funny. Speed is important but not when we talk about a second (I'm generous here).
