this feels like a breaking change akin to macOS changing the Command key to bringing up a start menu because it confuses Windows users. platforms have differences, and this one is actually so tiny and inconsequential it feels like any ameliorated confusion will be offset by confusion of people that rely on it and use it. is this really the barrier to adoption?
i’ve been using FitBod for ~4 years now. started with a similar setup, and now i have to go to the gym to challenge myself. it will suggest progressions over time, but you’ll find what’s right for you over time. it really depends on your goals, which in my experience will change over time if you stick with it. keeping a log and generating workouts is most of what i use the app for.
you also don’t just increase linearly. increase reps then weight, but then go down in weight to work on technique. don’t give into ego lifting and use your full range of motion. setbacks are also normal. practice self-forgiveness, but come back hard next time.
i went from an overweight slob who never worked out to being the guy most people assume is an athlete. this is just my experience, but progress is possible.
other commenters have hinted at this, but the main point of most of the good advice is this: don’t use the system Python install (ie the one from apt) for development. uv is my go to, but the idea behind *conda, pyenv, asdf, etc is the same. the underlying OS shouldn’t be an issue; you should be able to ship the code between OSs and build just fine, ideally.
generally speaking, i think it’s good practice to find several recipes and compare and contrast them. you’ll find opinions and get a sense for what the writer’s priorities are (quick, fewer dishes, what they usually have in the pantry, etc) and can figure out which writer has similar priorities to you. or just synthesize a recipe from those sources. this does require some technical know-how, but i think this is a good skill to have.
the first issue is familiar to me as my first laptop had this issue, while running Windows XP. the fans were going out and simply couldn’t move enough heat. the solution then that mostly worked was one of those laptop stands with fans built in. it worked most of the time, but a real solution might mean cleaning out the chassis and maybe replacing the fans.
for the second, i didn’t really have trouble setting up the Nvidia drivers just following the docs. sorry if that isn’t helpful; i’m stuck with Nvidia for my ML/CUDA stuff.
this is my experience as well. we have a bespoke wrapper around Jenkins, and the more we can test locally the less time we have to spend waiting for the system to fail. it’s one of the reasons i’ve adopted just to script things locally as if it was CI.
good lead. it’s just the one project for now, and to my surprise it’s actually a dependency for the ollama-rs project, so i feel somewhat obligated to keep it stable.
i switched to Linux in 2013ish to get away from my gaming habit and go all in on programming and computer science. that may not work these days as all the games i play work on Linux ha
i guess in these situations i think of my aunt, who is in her 80s. she has an iPhone. should she buy a NAS and host Immich? i don’t think “make backups” is the simple advice it appears to be for the vast majority of people
i think it’s easy to make comments like this from the peanut gallery, with the benefit of hindsight and a self-selected group of users who will agree. but Apple should be legally obligated to address this. the solution can’t be “this idiot didn’t spend his nights and weekends doing 3-tier backups and high availability infrastructure diversity!”; that’s not scalable. if we just accept that companies can do this, they will continue to. but this has been on the front page of HackerNews. it’ll probably make it to Tim Apple’s desk eventually, so we’ll see what shakes out.
i think the alternative is to use grep args. but ya know i’m living in the future using nushell’s open command and ripgrep so the argument is just kinda adorable
