Surprised no one just said Samba or NFS over a tunnel (Tailscale, WireGuard, etc).
Or by “sharing” do you mean keeping files synced between the two for replication?

Ironic because it constantly screws up escaping on macOS. I have a feeling when it says Bash it’s actually using zsh (default on modern macOS) and it doesn’t even realize it.
I’ve witnessed it do Bash) echo "Done" then claim a task was done without actually doing anything beforehand.
I’m mostly into it for the strong typing, self-documenting nature of it. In my own GraphQL APIs I’ve done a pretty great job of avoiding common pitfalls.
I’m a Ruby on Rails developer currently developing a service that’s basically ripped out of another Ruby on Rails app and the legacy data is just crazy bad — a lot of it has to do with poor validation but it’s understandably easy to get to that point in a dynamic language like Ruby if you’re not careful.
I also manage a REST JSON:API and it’s just so bulky and horrible to deal with. The tooling is barely there and it’s way overly complicated compared to GraphQL — the concept of “only query what you need” is fantastic.
I’ve been blocking Facebook for years but I have to say as a developer I’m absolutely in love with GraphQL. I really can’t stand having to continue development on REST APIs (though I’m equally obsessed with Conditional GET Requests as of late).


This reminds me of a legacy Rails 3.2 app that used a fork of the official Ruby on Rails only for one commit that backported some one-liner bug fix. This was at an old job in the Rails 6 days, getting it on the latest official version was definitely an adventure (no unit tests + tons of spaghetti code + a dash of currency conversions stored as Postgres floats).
I’m a programmer myself but my wife isn’t a programmer, that was my motivation for questioning.
Can programmers only be with other programmers or am I missing something?


I hate Microsoft with all my heart but I think it’s smart to have some sort of general computer skills.
I grew up having to take keyboarding and learning about office software (Apple’s suite at the time but later Office in community college).
From what I hear the kids can’t even type, never mind actually navigate a filesystem or troubleshooting basic issues.


It won’t because I have Google completely blocked on my network.


I run a side business and have been AWS-free for years. I love when all my competitors go down during AWS outages — my clients are the only ones still online in their industry.
Even with autofilling it on iOS, macOS you still have developers that need to fuck with form fields using JavaScript because they think they’re smarter than you.


I haven’t used Windows in like 20 years but it’s funny they still haven’t gotten around to fixing percentages. I remember stuff like this from the Windows XP days.


SMS/email-based 2FA should die.


I’m on Linux and I was going to shit all over Windows but realized I could use this on a few servers that I fuck with and constantly break.
It just hasn’t been my experience at all as a developer. I’m sorry you’ve been forced to keep legacy code around for the sake of not breaking things.
Yeah that was kind of my point.
I’ve never seen that before. Finder is usually smart enough to close any of its windows showing its files/folders before unmounting.
Even worse, don’t use the suggested Samba, NFS without a tunnel either! You should probably have the default ports blocked at the router.
