Being stuck before computer display until very late in the night tends to feel much worse than same amount of hours during the day. If it’s not gradual and you just turn computer on in the night – it feels like display hits you in the eyes.
f.lux is a software that adjusts color temperature for display to be easier on your eyes and brain at night.
For an operating systems that is multi-monitor capable for a very long time, Windows is surprisingly bad at herding its windows across larger and/or multiple screens. I had switched to the two display setup (again) this year and while Windows 7 has some new hotkeys they were completely lacking for portrait+landscape configuration.
After some searching and comparing Winsplit Revolution came out on top as about easiest and robust utility to move and resize windows.
Sometimes I am reminded that Internet is much more welcoming than world outside of a computer screen. Usually it’s bad kind of a cue.
Last week the fourth birthday of this blog had passed and I spent some days pondering this post. I think the phase this blog has entered is trivially recognized as The Slump that sooner or later sneaks up on some (most? all?) blogs.
And the problem with writing in and about the slump is that it seems like a bunch of worthless excuses prepending blog’s demise. So just to make it clear – this post is no excuse and this blog has no demise in sight. ;)
Thanks to zoo of version control systems spawned on my computer I found myself often in need to adjust or add/remove environment values in Windows. Native editor is functional but about as far from convenient as it gets.
I was pretty sure there are tools around for that and Rapid Environment Editor seems to be very popular choice.
there won't be good photos of me until bald years https://t.co/bpThlAAIep maybe not even then :)
@Rarst bbq sauce, wing sauce, sour cream, and mix your own.... Flavored mayo is (eg herb garlic aioli)
@Rarst if you like the product/service from a co whose practices you don't like, perhaps it creates disharmony for your soul?
@Rarst Same! Never given the time. Even with the justifications.
