Other places where you can find me

How many bureaucrats does that $1300 have to pay before it reaches the ambulance driver?

The US healthcare system is notorious for bloat. Taxpayers pay more for healthcare than countries with free healthcare.

I follow the daily best posts on hacker news https://hnrss.github.io/

This exposes me to quite interesting blogs (mainly tech, but not always). If I find someone worth following, I’ll add their blog to my list as well. That’s how I’ve been building my RSS feeds over the years.

From the non tech blogs that I’ve found there, from the top of my head, these are nice

https://going-medieval.com/ - medieval history professor’s blog. She’s quite witty, and makes super interesting posts about the daily lifes of people in the middle ages.

https://brr.fyi - blog from an IT guy working in a scientific research center in Antarctica.

Depends on the effort.

If you want a newbie friendly one with syncing: Feedly

If you care about open source and controlling your own data (but don’t care about syncing). Maybe liferea? There are tons of options.

If you care about syncing and don’t mind self-hosting: miniflux.

I use miniflux, but requires some tech knowledge to set up.

I have a RSS reader that I check everyday for articles / blogposts from websites I subscribe to.

The interesting stuff gets saved in Wallabag to read later. It syncs with my phone, and I can read offline whenever I got some time to kill.

Disappointed that he spends so much time these days uploading footage of chickens and commenting on political stuff. It was better when he just stuck to tutorials.

The Unix philosophy is not something that every Linux user / developer abides by.

Emacs is a good example of it.

It’s just great software. Suports every useful language and is very easy to write plugins for.

If I remember correctly, codium does not support remote connections to servers or kube pods, which is a killer feature of vscode. Otherwise I’d switch to codium.

What are you on about?

African countries have been flooded by Chinese goods, to the point that it has killed the local manufacturing in Africa. Look it up.

They don’t have the service industry the west has, so the only thing they can offer in return are raw materials, which China is happy to take.

Lemmy seems to hate went a western company exploits natural resources in Africa, but when China does it, they are somehow saving those poor people from the goodness of their hearts.

China isn’t really desperate for cheap natural resources as much as they are desperate for markets to export their manufactured goods.

Thus killing local manufacturing.
