  • “Hard” (high contrast) should use the bg0_h value for the background: #f9f5d7 or rgb(249,245,215).

    This is a light “off white”. If you have blue blocking mode or a night color mode enabled, the yellowing effect will be exaggerated.

    For what is worth, I don’t think gruvbox makes a good light theme because it’s pretty low contrast especially compared to a lot of more recent themes. I say this as a die hard gruvbox dark user.






  • Bold of you to assume people/companies test backups more than once.

    Case in point: I once got instructed to “enable EBS snapshots” for customer deployments to meet a new backup requirement. Disaster recovery was a completely different feature we only kind of got to a couple years later and afaik, remains manual to this day.


  • Well, that explains why corporate is so intent on them. They’re creating the perfect little KPI-driven stooge.

    Heck, now I’d like to see a study on KPIs (as a concept) as a reality distortion lens. It would seem like they have inadvertantly created a way to calculate a reality alignment index for a given KPI. Is it reasonable to conclude that using KPIs to measure performance is, in itself, unethical behavior?

    To go a bit further: Is there a correlation between the number of KPIs and the likelihood of creating scenarios in which the only desirable outcome lies outside reality? That is, how many KPIs does it take to get sufficient competition between priorities that it effectively requires hallucinating a solution to achieve a sufficiently aligned result?
