I have my ergodox ez setup like this.

asdf and jkl; all have dual functions when held

a/j = ctrl

; = alt

a turns ijkl into arrow keys (like wsad, but I have a left handed mouse)

k + j = copy, k + l = paste

and so on for symbols, brackets, etc.

The goal is to move from the home row as little as possible. I attempted to gather statistics on most used keys when programming at work, which was mildly successful.

Here's my layout, optimized for left handed mouse use: https://configure.zsa.io/ergodox-ez/layouts/JwoW9/latest/0

I think most containers also run "bare metal", they just are more isolated as far as process/memory/fs, etc.

Having worked with and without Docker for various web apps, it removes some dependency management and server setup at the cost of another layer (or two...) of complexity. It's not always worth it to go to containers.

Docker seems to make the most sense in cloud environments that scale horizontally.

What benefits would you get exactly?

Eh, most aftermarket seats are geared to keeping you in the seat during from lateral momentum. Less comfort than OEM.

OEM GT sedan seats are probably your best bet. Big Lexus, Mercedes, etc. sedans.

For my typing SaaS, I found firebase hosting/realtime DB a ginormous time saver.

And since it hasn't taken off (and probably won't ever), it just costs me a pennies a month since I'm under their free limits, plus the domain.

having worked for multiple dod contractors that did prototypes, lots.

Sad part is lots of the good ideas get culled when some head honcho doesn't like the dpt. it came from, or where the funding came from, because politics.

Lot of warfighters/ppl who are actually going to use the systems/products give us good feedback and then some O-6 comes on and doesn't like it or doesn't understand it.

I created an online typing training site: https://typefast.dev

Granted, it launched at the beginning of this month and I'm only spending minimal amounts advertising it. 200 signups, only a fraction actually bother using the site after signing up.

I created it after using another online typing site, which charged quite a lot, and said to myself: "I can do this, and charge a fraction of what they do". So I did, pretty much my only more-or-less complete project after probably a dozen good-hearted attempts that I gave up on eventually.
