iOS dev with a background in hardware (where I used Perl daily to parse millions of lines of test data). Funny, just used perl the other day to parse an iOS repo for deeplink path handlers. Love it.

Browsed through to see what the hype is. I think it needs more timestamps. "Updated at ...". Readers need to know how up to date the information is and if it's still trustworthy. I understand railway systems don't change much but it's still helpful to keep track of time and dates.
Recently got a 14" mbp m2 Pro for work. So far 3 months in, I "think" it is the perfect work/personal laptop (excluding gaming).

I was at a YC startup in the mid 2010s for around 4 years. The most funding we got was a series B round but nothing more after.
Near the end, I had a happy hour or dinner with one of the co-founders. He told me that if he had to choose again (giving up his engineering job vs. starting up the company), he doesn't know if he would choose the start-up route again.
Just some food for thought. It's great playing the CEO or the founder and betting on yourself but at the end of the day, the financial trade-offs could be life changing (especially given the salary/stock options provided by top tech companies).

Came here for dmail, a gmail competitor. Semi disappointed but still liking this security feature though.
I agree with Dewan's comments. It sucks for people who don't drink or who choose not to drink. I think the tech industry should be more aware of that when it comes to events, prizes, etc. However, sometimes in life you're given the short end of the straw. Like for ex. I am a short person but when I go to Europe, the urinals are quite tall for me. It's something that I have to live with because that's the way things are.
There will never be a drastic change in this culture. Majority of people don't want this change. We'll just need to be more mindful of others in the future.

Remember the days when AMD was like $3/share and Intel was like crushing it. The world really has changed in the last decade.
Not too interested in any of these mods but will give Rockbox and FreshOS a look. Thanks for posting this.
Fwiw, can anyone answer is it difficult to revert Rockbox back to original OS?
