Remarkable has that built in. They offer their own cloud service that makes it trivial to sync your files.

My flow is: 1. (Optional) Upload something on Google drive. 2. Copy it on remarkable. It syncs automatically on cloud. 3. Edit as I wish. 4. Upload final copy to Google Drive


The culture refers to commits like: "add tests" "track new files" "test passes" "tests compile" "temp" and not to logically independent changes.


Bram has unfortunately died.


This is great advice.

Remember, though. You can still get it, even if you do all that. Having cancer is not a moral failure. Even kids may get it.

Realizing, not in a philosophical way, one way way or another, that we will die, is something that changes you. Fewer reasons to accumulate fame and money. More reasons to make yourself happy in this life.


You cant really be happy if you completely lack money either.


At some point, it is good to die, to make room for the next generation, no matter how great you are. Others deserve a shot, too.


No. Nothing is worth the utter destruction of a person. People have an endless capacity to learn and grow, and there is no limited room for people that's getting used up; the universe is a very big place. Longevity will certainly lead to some interesting challenges; bring them on, they're worth solving and none of them are worth killing people to avoid. And preventing people from living is absolutely equivalent to killing them.


Personally, for me I'd say "no". But I decided not to have kids, and I don't think you can have unlimited reproduction and immortality. It would be interesting to give people the choice between eternal life and kids. Like in the Highlander, your "prize" for having kids is mortality.

Have you heard of long running holdbacks? Even if not, rest assured that for major features, they are very commonly run.


You can destroy many people lives without physical violence.


Certainly! I know a guy who got laid off recently, and he has a child with a sensitive medical condition who was relying on the guy's no-longer-existing health insurance for essential medical treatment.

Should the managers who organized the layoff go to prison?


That's more a feature of the messed up way US ties health insurance to employment, isn't it? Very few layoffs venture close to criminal territory, more part of how business works.


Probably


You can buy the book and then download it DRM free from Anna's archive. That's what I do with the Remarkable tablet.
