There's a setting that will allow you to double-click to open a file from the multibuffer which I find more natural:

  { "double_click_in_multibuffer": "open" }

Re GPU usage: noticed this myself a few months back and decided to poke around. Recommend turning off the minimap if you have it enabled. There seems to be some over-rendering that is exacerbated by it. It's actively being investigated and improved upon (0.192 was a great step in the right direction) but, even still, I've found it (currently) has a big positive impact once disabled.

Hiya. No questions but just an fyi: the version of `@fresh/init` mentioned in the article (`2.0.0-alpha.30`) fails to run. Looks like latest at this time (`2.0.0-alpha.33`) runs successfully.

If I understand this correctly, the `BroadcastChannel` API solves a similar purpose.

New comment by sisk in "Why “alias” is my last resort for aliases"

sisk — Wed, 05 Mar 2025 14:59:49 +0000

zsh also supports the "alias anywhere" concept (their term is "global alias") by using the `-g` flag.

   alias -g ag='2>&1 | grep'
   some-command ag 'words' # equivalent to: some-command 2>&1 | grep 'words'

This is possible with this newly released version. Just add this to your config.

New comment by sisk in "The hidden complexity of scaling WebSockets"

sisk — Sat, 25 Jan 2025 15:57:53 +0000

Websockets are bidirectional while SSE is unidirectional (server to client). That said, there's nothing stopping you from facilitating client to server communication separately from SSE, you just don't have to build that channel with websockets.

sisk — Tue, 14 Jan 2025 19:04:39 +0000

For GasBuddy, specifically, it was used for an opt-in feature known as "Trips" whose purpose was to show you driving insights such as those mentioned in the article (hard braking, hard turning, hard acceleration). Not enabled by default and looks to have been removed at some point.

New comment by sisk in "Kamal Proxy – A minimal HTTP proxy for zero-downtime deployments"

sisk — Sat, 21 Sep 2024 15:12:11 +0000

For the first part of your question about the other replicas, docker will load balance between all of the replicas either with a VIP or by returning multiple IPs in the DNS request[0]. I didn't check if this proxy balances across multiple records returned in a DNS request but, at least in the case of VIP-based load balancing, should work like you would expect.

For the second part about updating the service, I'm a little less clear. I guess the expectation would be to bring up a differently-named service within the same network, and then `kamal-proxy deploy` it? So maybe the expectation is for service names to include a version number? Keeping the old version hot makes sense if you want to quickly be able to route back to it.

Price will come down and, in the meantime, compounding pharmacies are filling the gap in addressing stock shortages and high prices. Just be sure to use a reputable pharmacy if you decided to go that route.

> The private key is much easier to set up than stunnel's TLS certificate, "dd if=/dev/urandom count=4 bs=1k of=key" and you're good to go.

The spiped documentation recommends a key size with a minimum of 256b of entropy. I'm curious why you've chosen such a large key size (4096b) here? Is there anything to suggest 256b is no longer sufficient for the general case?

Many of the gl.inet routers can run vanilla OpenWRT out of the box—the linked router above (Beryl) included[1]. Be mindful that not every one of their routers can as some run unsupported chipsets that require a custom build, but many do. Can always check for support on the OpenWRT page for gl.inet routers[2].

Just here to second the recommendation. I'm in no way affiliated, I've just happily used several generations of their routers for this exact purpose.

EDIT: Wanted to point out that their newest and most powerful travel router with (upcoming—in the latest v23 release candidate[3]) support from mainline OpenWRT is the Beryl AX (GL-MT3000)[4].

To add, modern u-boot has enough UEFI support that you can get away with using it instead of this full tianocore-based implementation.

New comment by sisk in "Tips for analyzing logs"

sisk — Tue, 13 Dec 2022 18:23:30 +0000

Loosely related: a few years ago I wanted a simpler alternative to some of the more feature-full log viewers out there so I threw together a tiny (50kb) app that might be useful to some folks in here.

All it does is consistently colors the first field in a line from stdin so you can quickly see which log lines have the same first field.

I used it in combination with the parallel[0] command to prefix log lines by replica name when tailing logs across machines: https://github.com/jasisk/color-prefix-pipe
