My current laptop I bought used and didn’t realize that HD wasn’t 1080p, but rather 720p… (1080p is apparently FHD), whoops. I’m currently using a Latitude 7290 for reference and it more than meets all my regular needs (other than the screen resolution…). I have been using a tiling window manager and moving to apps that don’t waste as much space on my screen to try to help compensate.

Assuming Desktop is 1080p is probably reasonable, but there are a ton of good used business laptops that are still 720p, so it’s probably going to stick around for a while (also, why encourage e-waste).

For reference, my laptops specks are:

1. i7-8650u
2. 32 GB RAM
3. 2TB SSD

As long as I stay out of VM’s and do my development in lightweight editors and containers, this hardware could technically last me a while (also, I think the 7x90 series Latitudes are some of my favorite laptops).

The concern for code duplication is valid, but as the article mentioned it is also a while off until the Nova project is mainlined. I honestly never thought of how the work to bring in Rust to mainline may in effect lead to a more complete deprecation of older hardware as we start to change API’s older/unmaintained components aren’t updated. On the flip side, trimming out older stuff might save maintainer work going forward.

Honestly, pretty effective, I used to balance the mattresses on my head when working in a dorm. Many societies used this approach to move things, and with three of them the have the definition of a geometric plane.

I believe Mozilla was heavily involved with the creation of Rust, although that has now been transitioned to the Rust Foundation; not sure if that impacts them and/or what other projects they might have

Rust’s cargo is great, I’d say it would be best to make the switch sooner rather than later once your code base is established. The build system and tooling alone is a great reason to switch

But you spotted it

SEEEEEEE!!! I told you

I usually wear deodorant (which generally has an antiperspirant in it), but there are days when I don’t/haven’t; in this limited experience I’ve noticed I would generally smell worse if I haven’t been active. It seems like being up and moving around and sweating from ‘labor’ rather than sitting and sweating (not sure how to word that) is less likely to significantly smell. With all that said, I do try to shower after the gym or when I return inside after working on significant outdoor projects.

P.S., another data point to consider is the individual’s age, as hormone levels (generally tied to age) could also influence perspiration

Ticks are terrible; creepy just as little things that get on you, but then they also carry all sorts of diseases which really drives up the paranoia after every hike
