The docs project is part of "La Suite"[1]. They choose Grist[2] as the spreadsheet which is made by an American company but open source and there is a significant contribution from the French it admin.

New comment by toinebeg in "JetBrains is shutting down "Code With Me" in all its IDEs"

If anyone need a replacement I suggest https://mob.sh/

It's a git based system where you use a common screen sharing between participants and since It's git based, everyone can use it's IDE.

It's based on the mob programming technique coined by Woody Zuill so no multiple people editing at the same time and more discutions

I hurt my right wrist on a bike fall, it's long term injury. I found that my left hand is much more compliant with touchpads than mice so I found an old Logitech T650 in second hands.

With solaar on Linux, the thing work flawlessly. On Windowsthe device is not supported by the official firmware so no gesture or click. It's a shame !

I had kind of the same path but with GitKraken and Sublime Merge but I kept Sublime Merge around as it ease complex interactions too.

I have only praise for Sublime Merge.

Well not on hope and well wishes, more on planning and political will. As the oil, If your gas station is filled it's not only a thanks you the money you give the oil company but a large infrastructure work and political and geopolitical framework that make it happen.

Well if your dependent on oil to make your car run, the people who have the power to block oil distribution have a huge leverage.

I don't get your argument, we have a huge dependency on the oil distribution infrastructure. A switch in transportation system is a switch in the type of infrastructure, not a freedom vs control thing.

Is this tool useful when you are working with a managed cluster from a large provider like gke ?

Ask HN: Ideas for Casual DOM Manipulation

toinebeg — Tue, 04 Jul 2023 16:58:17 +0000

Hi HN,

I'm working on a short talk I will be doing soon. I want to desmonstrate to a non-coder public that when you access a webpage, you actually download a some data that you can interract with and modify. This is pratices I do without thinking but I see people don't have that knowledge. I will show small js one liners, css rules or gui interaction with the standard dev tools. I will also talk about plugins, [tamper/violent/fire]monkey, ublock, user stylesheet...

For now I have the following :

- delete paywall or modals from the dom with the inspect tool (you can do the same in Ublock also).

- change the input type from password to text to see a recorded password

- change color from the devtools then apply them with user stylesheet (using a plugin)

- identify resources (sound, image) from the network pannel and download them in your user folder

- find image links by inspecting stylesheet to get background images

- modify url arguments (pagination querystring, explore a site by it's url)

- show several privacy and adblocking plugins.

Do you have any ideas in the same vein I could use to enrich the presentation ?

New comment by toinebeg in "Ask HN: Does the Scrum Framework Work?"

toinebeg — Thu, 30 Jun 2022 19:56:27 +0000

My main take after practising Agile and Scrum for a few years is that there is more in Agile than Scrum. For Scrum to work you need to enrich it with other ideas.

There are less than 20 authors in the manifesto, go check what they were up to. Next to the management framework, there is a lot of engeneering techniques and ideas. A sibling comment talked about XP whose technics work well along scrum, but there is also clean code, refactoring, crystal methods, agile as a cooperative game, liberating structures, devops (no, not the job offer),...

They all had blogs (archive. org is your friend for some of them), wrote books and gave talks. I like to get lost on http://wiki.c2.com/ where I found lots of insight about how to make the thing work. So yeah, I think it work pretty well when you learn how to use it.

The lines exists. There is a project of a cooperative rail company who want to exploit this route with the existing infrastructure.
