The Man Who Killed Google Search

Jump

  • Wow, that's really neat.

    Thanks for letting me know about MetaFilter and its transition to NPO. This really seems like a great move for the site.

    I've heard of the site before, but haven't had the chance to try it before. Guess a bit late is better than never, right? :D

    • How many of you actually use the headphone jack on your phone?

    Jump

  • I use it daily, to connect my phone to my car AUX input and my various (very expensive) headphones.

    • What operating system do you use on your main computer?

    Jump

  • Linux full-time on all of my machines since 2007 (various distros over the years, of course).

    • Hypothetically speaking, if Reddit back tracks on their API plan and meets all of the communities expeditions- would you go back to Reddit?

    Jump

  • No, I won't return.

    This whole episode taught me the importance of diversifying the online communities/platforms that I use, and how NOT to rely on a single platform controlled by a for-profit entity.

    From now on, it's communities based on open platforms first for me, and proprietary ones the distance second and only if I really can't avoid it.

    • Programmers using Spring (Java) professionally, how did you learn it?

    Jump

  • If you want a book that does a really good job of explaining the basics and laying the foundation of Spring from the ground up, then I recommend Spring Start Here. It's the book I wish I had when I started working on Spring (Boot) projects all those years ago.

    • What distro(s) do you use?

    Jump

  • Debian with KDE for my trusty X230 ThinkPad and Kubuntu for my desktop (mostly due to more up-to-date drivers for my gaming needs).

    • How are you going to avoid using reddit?

    Jump

  • Easy, I just deleted my 10+ years Reddit account.

    No regrets, and am now having fun exploring the fediverse.
