I think the industry needs to rethink extensions in general. VSCode and browser extensions seem to have very little thorough review or thought into them. A lot of enterprises aren't managing them properly.


Absolutely. I have not installed useful browser extensions because Mozilla isn't the maintainer. E.g. the Google container.


I've always thought c suites probably give each other applause and tell each other how great they are. Now I know it's true.


I've watched it happen at two orgs now. Lay off 500 people because you fucked the company for 2 years then congratulate each other for making the decision to write off all the accumulated debt by getting rid of all operating costs. Then come up with some new bullshit vision. Rinse, repeat while extracting wealth from gullible investors and treating staff as expendable.


Purdue doing the Chinese a favor. Nobody wants to go to West Lafayette.


It’s great place for grad school. Very little to do other than study and lab work. Play soccer with the grad students, float on the river in the summer, shoot potato gun cannons in corn fields, but otherwise there’s nothing better to do than work on a PhD.

I’d recommend it for grad school. But then yea time to move on.


I ran Hugo when I launched my blog last year. I made 18 total posts. Probably 3/4 of those had issues when trying to publish due to issues with Hugo. Found it so frustrating.


I recently moved off Hugo as well to a DIY Python static site generator for my own blog. The trouble I had was I found it frustrating to have to learn how to do something the Hugo way when I knew I could quickly code it in a language I was already familiar with.


I found Hugo to work well for the most part. Seemed everytime I went to publish id run into a new error if I wasn't consistent enough about posting. I moved over to Docusaurus for the new year and off of Hugo.

Thanks for the work you do, really inspirational honestly.


I've been getting Singapore traffic like crazy


Same. Not Wordpress, but Cloudflare tells me my main traffic (by far) is from Singapore and the US, and in numbers that are clearly bots.


Does that actually exist? I know there are reddit type clones, but I'm yet to see anything that allows me to setup a niche server and only that.


Yeah, there quite a few. Like old-school phpBB is still around[1]. Or, take a look at the list on Wikipedia[2].

Not sure if you're looking for a hosted solution, though. A lot of those would involve you running your own server.

How I miss my script kiddie days of being 15, downloading "nulled" versions of vBulletin off of Limewire and throwing them up on pocket money paid cPanel web hosting account waiting for it to upload on my parents 56K.

Exploit ridden PHPNuke & e107 CMS too.


We had similar childhoods - though I did phpBB. Never had an audience for the forum, but it was cool just having and styling it. Good times.


Discourse also has a (first-party) ActivityPub plugin now!


Indeed! NodeBB is exactly that, and federates over ActivityPub.


I enjoy my 1:1s with my manager. It's pretty relaxed, open ended conversation. Recently she asked us all to just do a summary in OneNote of what we did for the week, so that kind of gives us things to talk about. Typically we talk about personal life, family things for about half of the meeting and work the other half.


Step 1....I'm assuming this is what's happening with my company too.

We announced April offices are back open.

Step 2. will be hybrid for supervisors/managers

Then returning everyone.

My guess is all back to normal by October.


That assumes that the great resignation in tech won't still be continuing as people jump around between companies, or more hard to say and probably less likely, yet another strain cropping up.
