Why is this a thing? What a huge time sink for me. I’d rather continue learning the course than having to stop to figure out why an IDE is doing what it’s doing. I guess it’s par-for-the-course for an IDE, since it can do so much. While working on the Udemy Django I had to …

Bad WordPress search!
Mentioned this before, but didn’t have a reference. But I searched WordPress for Udemy and I got 2 pages As you can see this is the last page of a udemy search, it’s dated 7/30/2020. However if I search for Pandas an older post containing Udemy from June appears. As you can see Udemy is …
Update grub after Manjaro
Because I dual boot Linux, after a new install, I always get around to changing grubs timeout to at least 20 seconds. In Manjaro I use this command: sudo nano /boot/grub/grub.cfg export theme if [ x$feature_timeout_style = xy ] ; then set timeout_style=hidden set timeout=20 # Fallback hidden-timeout code in case the timeout_style # feature …

Signal
Don’t know why I didn’t mention I’ve been using the Signal android app for many months now. KeePass has a creation time entry that says 5/14/2020, Bitwarden reports updated Sep 25, 2020. I guess I don’t always associate android with computers…even though it is an OS. Also they have a Linux desktop program that you …
NextCloud DDNS
Decided to logon into my Nextcloud server, which I rarely do, but it seems that my NextCloud DDNS is either down or no longer exists. So I can’t login using that method. So I have to re-familiarize myself with the process all over again. So I chose a new DDNS dynu, but now I have …
Podcast sizes
This is probably something that to most people is not worth talking about. Podcast sizes IMHO are often unnecessarily large. Especially voice podcasts. Why are these voice podcasts which are mostly used to convey information, and usually played once so large? For voice…IMHO, a high bit rate is not necessary and contributes greatly to the …
Apple M1
Not a lot to say just acknowledging that the Apple M1 chip sounds very interesting!
