I think if you need to measure this kind of thing, you're missing the point in the first place. I don't want to be chasing some absolute productivity metric, I want a setup that doesn't break my flow. For many people, reaching for the mouse breaks their flow and feels wrong, which is oftentimes worse than being a second slower, because it takes you out of the mental frame you were in.

For me, using my mouse while I'm working feels natural, so trying to change my workflow to learn how to navigate everything by keyboard would be a huge amount of extra effort just to maybe possibly save a little bit of time in some situations.

How I Start: Rust 6 years ago

It was really helpful doing some first steps with rust.

One suggestion: add a warning for macOS users that psutil::host::uptime is not available on macOS. I had to figure that out myself and it was quite frustrating.

I figure you didn't know that, and it's not like the article claims otherwise, but it would be useful to add I think.

The reason for the discontent wasn't "lack of freedom", it was britain forbidding western expansion of the colonies. We wanted land, the british wanted good trade relations with the native americans who supplied them with valuable fur.

Dunno, to me that still sounds like "lack of freedom", it's just a matter of how you want to frame it.

But that's more an issue of identity confirmation.

I believe there has to be a reasonably high bar that a person has to clear before a company should be even allowed to assume they are who they're claiming to be, but once that bar is cleared no information regarding or directly linked to the person in question should be withheld from them.
