The move was for his partner&#39;s job. He had a *really* hard time getting hired from AK, because companies that weren&#39;t already employing someone from AK didn&#39;t want to do the paperwork to hire just one person. 2026-01-21T18:33:29+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsrl5cvmwr3vf6y9fu5ysgtalr796h5hcqmnt6cgdaameuldux40fczypgpatz2gate5lh6nsm0ggpt7taqy2r8ztar0jhtkzyeqels2902k7t5usa In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsxav7fnvad3kplr8u2dxe8lehjt3x8qdpe5sw68rtqvms0lfdayjsxyxw0v'>nevent1q…xw0v</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Are you giving up on Git? It definitely gets complicated in all its workflows, but a small subset of features goes a long way for a solo developer.<br/><br/>My short list: init, status, add, commit, diff, branch, merge, checkout, log. And switch is helpful for modern workflows.<br/><br/>People get intimidated by reset, rebase, and merge conflicts. But a solo developer can go a long time without needing those, or running into conflicts. 2026-01-07T23:27:07+01:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsr2jlnkpztweef9lmhnxywl7hagzvlg8cy3590r6r4gutfsanwxsszypgpatz2gate5lh6nsm0ggpt7taqy2r8ztar0jhtkzyeqels2902k4vkg3f In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs9ky4rtypeqkvr8atumxa9eama2gdjlzx5x4yjt2twev868wh52zqr99nkx'>nevent1q…9nkx</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I&#39;m team pourover and latte at home, but I&#39;ve been looking for something other than pourover for traveling and camping.<br/><br/>I think I&#39;m going to give this a try:<br/><br/><a href="https://aeropress.com/products/aeropress-go-travel-coffee-press">https://aeropress.com/products/aeropress-go-travel-coffee-press</a> 2025-08-28T16:55:38+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqs0mtqw0vexmuncalhvrdckuy94q8dx2jv3qtvrkflqf6zj8xc7gtszypgpatz2gate5lh6nsm0ggpt7taqy2r8ztar0jhtkzyeqels2902kvw64kw Yes AeroPress I&#39;ve heard only good things about your product and want to buy one, but no I absolutely do not want want to receive &#34;AI content&#34; through text messages from you. 🤦‍♂️<br/> <img src="https://cdn.fosstodon.org/media_attachments/files/115/106/783/486/632/250/original/ba3591bcb6e54f90.png"> <br/> 2025-08-28T16:10:40+02:00 https://nostr.ae/nevent1qqsq47pcgh75jw2hku7yvgpaxf0e2nl68v6r9gfa0cl6wngzd7e8jkczypgpatz2gate5lh6nsm0ggpt7taqy2r8ztar0jhtkzyeqels2902kfljh8l In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsrcyyxj99yw87c3h5n770nv3c7mt5p5kzrgexlucte9jnt5snu20sc279hg'>nevent1q…79hg</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>I started out bike touring in the northeast, and thought I could never do longer rides in the west because I struggled with my knees on some climbs.<br/><br/>It was really nice to discover that the climbs in the west are much longer, but almost always much more gradual.

I&#39;ve never heard wolves before.<br/><br/>One of my highlights was chipping ice chunks from the lip of a crevasse on one of the glaciers in the middle of Baranof Island, and listening to the sound of the ice chunks falling into the abyss of the crevasse.
