Ente is as close as you can get to Google Photos with E2EE right now. I recently migrated there. The migration wasn't painless and involved some scripting to handle albums and duplicates but the service itself is really good. Can recommend!

I really hope this happens. NFC payments are the only thing that keeps me from switching to GrapheneOS. Seeing how the situation with big tech unfolds, it's not impossible that I will decide to give up this convenience though.

So I'm going to say what I always say when people complain about semantic whitespace: Your code should be properly indented anyway. If it's not, it's a bad code.

I'm not saying semantic whitespace is superior to brackets or parentheses. It's clearly not. But it's not terrible either.

As someone who codes in Python pretty much everyday for years, I NEVER see indentation errors. I didn't see them back when I started either. Code without indentation is impossible to read for me anyway so it makes zero difference whether the whitespace has semantic meaning or not. It will be there either way.

I absolutely love the videos on this channel, this one being one of the best published yet. I'm literally blown away by the level of detail and clarity. I think I'm going to watch it more one time...

Exactly this worked for me. Just be consistent until it sticks. It can take months, easily. But it works in the end. 10:30 pm - 6:00 am is now baked into my mind and I usually just wake up naturally like 10 minutes before the alarm. I actually love it 😁

So, your original comment sounded very relatable and I never heard about an AQ test before. Just took one and got 34. Well...

(For the unfamiliar: 34 out of 50, over 32 means you should probably go and get a real diagnosis.)

You are only starting to think that NOW?

The article is very interesting but the fake cursors are infuriating and make it nearly impossible to focus on the content. It's a clever joke but without a way to disable it, the author is just sabotaging his own content.

In case anyone is curious (like I was) what the "gold foil wrap" actually is, here you go:

Multi-layer Insulation, or simply MLI, is a type of high-performance insulator that uses multiple radiation-heat transfer barriers to restrict the flow of (heat) energy. In simple terms, it’s a form of thermal insulation made of multiple layers of thin sheets that is used to cover spacecraft and other space equipment in order to reduce heat loss by way of thermal radiation.

This is really interesting and I would probably never read it if not for this post. Thanks!

I don't have any answers unfortunately. It looks like the implementation is just half-assed because making it good isn't actually in Google's interest.

If you install one of the supported apps (e.g. Ecosia) it appears as an option in the menu. I didn't find a way to use FF yet.

I've been playing with NixOS in spare time for a few weeks now and I'm afraid I don't have a very good news for you. It looks like the learning curve is just very steep. It took me quite a lot of time to get to the point where I have any idea what I'm doing. Some beginner friendly resources which helped me:

In general, I recommend checking out people's configs on GitHub. You can learn a lot by example.
