  • Yup, for a solo project that you don’t want to share I would even argue that a forge is close to pointless.

    Any ssh remote will work as a backup, you can run the ci/cd task on your own computer just fine (very likely faster even), you obviously don’t need to send PR and request code review to yourself and if a TODO.md isn’t enough to keep track of tasks there’s a billions lightweight task/note tracker.

    I use github because I’m a lazy and it works fine as a backup but I don’t need 99% of the features for my pet projects.





  • The EU has been designed so that no one in any position can abuse his (or her) powers or at least make it extremely difficult to do so, with an added layer of mistrust between the states requiring even more checks and balances so it can lead to some ridiculously complicated processes since not much can be done without a majority consensus.

    Deciding to leave twitter or not will lead to a barrage of comments from all the countries, so I’m not even surprised that even that decision has to be carefully managed.

    I’m poking fun but for all it’s flaws the EU has achieved a surprising amount of things.





  • I doubt you need more than a notepad app. It’s what I used the last two times I had to move between countries and it was more than enough for me and customs. I simply wrote down important stuff as I put them in numbered boxes.

    Spreadsheet are overkill, a note app is easy to access on your phone at all time and can be easily shared with someone.

    Here’s a sample of what I ended up with:

    • 15 - camera stands / shoemaking tools / notepads / trophies / guitar cable / weaved basket X2 / cooler bag / curtain rings X 3 /

    • 25 - Nespresso coffee machine, Italian coffee maker, plates & dishes, kitchen utensils.
    • 26 - casserole, dishes, plates, kitchen stuff
    • 27 - casserole, cups
    • 28 - wedding dress, photos, various cat stuff, photo bag


  • Well, I do believe twitter makes people less intelligent^* which lead to Americans electing Trump (twice even), which eventually impacts me somewhere down the line.

    ^* Because the focus on short sentence and the engagement algorithms favours highly polarised angry one liners that trigger primal emotion and is a successful assassination of any intelligent discourse.

    And I say that having seen the progressive brain rot of my parents after they retired and started doomscrolling on twitter and being bombarded by more and more extreme messages, until it became a constant stream that can be summarised roughly by “brown people = bad”.
