I’m pretty sure all the apps like old school Caffeine, amphetamine, keeping you awake, all of them use the built in caffeinate under the hood. Personally I like keeping you awake because I can use it at work without App Store, so my setup scripts install it along with other brew formulas

Personally I use lists heavily so I can have Ruby/professional feed, and a sports feed, and be able to read them in peace and right mental space. I don’t really know what to do about following although I rarely look at that feed. Maybe I should follow everyone in my lists then?

Following that line of thinking, what should they have done with rv? Build it and bill RC for that time? Never try to come up with new ideas/improvements? There’s no reasonable answer. Building rv on the side is bet good for community, and it could always move into RC umbrella if successful

Thinking like search engines processing slugs and doing analysis on them. Seems like the indexing would be more accurate, or maybe it’s far more advanced than I understand

Would be intrigued to hear more/follow along as you figure that out. Maybe a good podcast episode?

I think removing is more sensible (human thinking) but wouldn’t removing also be more logical for text indexing?

What would that look like? Instructions to source directly from GitHub instead of Rubygems? Or a step further? GitHub only seems marginally safer from (various) issues due to Microsoft restructuring

I was a speaker at that Houston one, traveling 2 states over, and I contemplated backing out. Certainly did not feel good about it
