TIL that git has project-scoped excludes. Useful when you're using some tool that other people in your team are not using, but it makes sense to store its configuration within the project.

`echo ".your-tool-config.json" >> .git/info/exclude`

The fact that it is impossible to have both a company (with VAT EU where you want invoices) and a private profile (where you don't want them) on Amazon is totally beyond me.

Honestly, there aren't many computer-related activities that are as enjoyable as uninstalling MS Teams.

Uncloud looks super promising in this space. The power of docker without the overhead of k8s

> no central control plane to maintain. Each machine maintains a synchronised copy of the cluster state through peer-to-peer communication

I'm starting to really dislike lack of ability to log in with a regular password in favor of "we just sent you a login code".

If your rationale is that passwords are unsafe, please add a passkey option then 🙏

Looking at you, booking.com (and TBH, many others)
