I actually also do this and get into funny episodes because people think I work for the company when giving out the email address in physical stores.

One time I actually got my phone fixed faster because the receptionist thought I was Samsung worker (samsung@m.....pt) and their store were Samsung partners.

Anyway, I also do not receive any spam on the custom ones.


In Portugal, you basically open the app, scan fingerprint to give permission and get a new card.

You can even scan the card via webcam or copy the details to clipboard.

The virtual card also limits itself either to single transaction or single store so it can't be used even if compromised on store level.

It's pretty simple process (<30sec) and it's really useful.

You are fully ignoring that a lot of unions and government labor laws in EU actually focus on a better life for the worker.

It's really not always about the money...


Even if it this worked on Linux, would a chrome running in flatpak sandbox be able to escalate privileges?


Exactly what I did. 2 desktops at home and office, sync via dotfiles for OS config, documents via Nextcloud and src via git.

A laptop (xps 13 9360) for traveling or working in remote places.

Even have a yubikey on each desktop and one for travel. All storing the ssh keys.

I don't use the laptop for months, open it and update the packages and dotfiles before going for a travel and that's it. Ready to go.


> sync via dotfiles for OS config, (...) src via git.

This is something other than just having your dot files in git, and system config in git via etc keeper?


i just keep my personal dot files in git, not system config.

Systems are slightly different, at work i have two 27 inch monitors and at home i have one 30 inch, and I do play some paradox games on home computer on ocasion


I've been using sway for more than an year but recently got an issue where all QT applications randomly close and can no longer start until I restart sway.

The screen sharing works fine with xdg-desktop-portal-wlr and with Fedora moving fully into pipewire I'd expect things to get even more stable under wayland.

One thing I'm missing is a decent screen recorder (gif/mp4). For screenshots one can use swappy, it works perfectly.


Thank you. I use most of this, I've been using it for years and I just don't talk about it because it's hard to argue when people just want to force an idea that k8s is "really the best way of doing things".

Also, haproxy is one of the most reliable software I've ever used.

I wouldn't call it the best way; Rather a good way because Kubernetes does encapsulate the really good bits from scalability, development, security and reliability aspect. It's not a panacea but if you have team bandwidth to run k8s cluster, it's definitely worth a look.

<3 HAProxy. It's a solid piece of software tested to the teeth over the years and is great; Here's the thing: You can run it as your preferred ingress controller too :) https://www.haproxy.com/blog/dissecting-the-haproxy-kubernet...


If you won't hire anyone using vim, you might not want to hire anyone using VS Code, I would say since most of "modern vim" users share LSP usage.

But better yet, if you will hire people based on their tools and not their skills, you might want to stay away from that department.


That is exactly diametrically opposite what I said. And I did not discuss “tools” just the vi/vim cult.

I don’t have a problem with someone using vi/vim so long as it isn’t a cult.

I don’t care about tools or how many ways someone can write code to identify a palindrome or generate Fibonacci. I care vastly more about how people think, how creative they are, their attention to detail, resiliency, philosophy when faced with failure, ability to learn, approach to facing areas where they might be weak, ability to communicate, organizational skills, honesty, humbleness and more.

Notice I could not care less about coding speed or someone being a code puzzle database or how quickly they can enter 300 lines if code. In the context of what real work is about these things are as irrelevant as what brand if shoes they wear.


I suspect the key phrase there was "insists on." And I can see where they're coming from. If choice of editor is so important to someone's programming style that they won't accept anything else, it makes me suspect their priorities are misplaced.
