I have installed it recently and am trying it out. There are a lot of things there so for now i probably just scratched the surface of it's capabilities. So i can't say definitely if it satisfies my needs.

But i have gained feeling that all programs i looked at dont have capability for something like tags. GNU Cash has account hierarchy (which i like) but i didnt find tags or equivalent.

Example use case for tags would be if i want to specify for expenses if they were "wants" or "needs".

And that is messy to try to do in hierarchy, because if i put it in root than both children will basicaly be duplicated (whole sub tree), and if i put it in leaves than i will have sub account for "wants" and "needs" in every leaf account.

    I am interested what do you use for tracking your expenses and other things like income, lending, investing, ...

    All apps i tried don't have a lot of features or those features are buggy (or they at least seem so).

    Have you found some app that does all that you want or do you use spreadsheets or some other solution?

    I can't find some lightweight dm compression layer. Only one i found is VDO and for some reason it uses a lot of memory to operate (on the order of 500 MiB). Why is that? My idea was to use it on a normal laptop/pc that does not have a lot of memory to waste. Only other alternative is btrfs, but it is already slow by itself (compared to other fs like ext4). Idealy what i would want is something like ext4 on VDO (only compression with VDO, and of course there would be LVM in there), only problem with this is that VDO is heavy on memory.

    That's interesting, haven't considered that. Although I would want to run most things in CTs/LXCs and not full VMs for performance reasons. And Proxmox has more DIY feel which i kind of like. If I fail with Proxmox, might give QubesOS a try.

    I would do everything in VMs, mostly Linux and probably one Windows. Proxmox would be only for managing VMs. I want everything in VMs because it's more flexible for partitioning storage and i can have both Linux and Windows runing at the same time (which can't be done with dualboot). I am student of computer science so i use it for programming, both for college and side projects. Sometimes there are a lot of programs i have so OS kind of gets bloated, not so much from performance standpoint but just mental overhead of having 10, 20, 30 programs and having to keep in mind what program needs what dependencies, env variables, etc.. so i want to kind of group them to VMs and CTs.

    I am trying to install and setup proxmox on laptop and use it as daily driver. I want to make network setup that can use both ethernet and WiFi, whichever is available and i want VMs to be able to access LAN because some things dont work otherwise (like NDI). I have writen config file that makes 2 bridges and every VM would have 2 interfaces. I havent installed Proxmox yet because i dont want to mess things up (it wouldn't be first time :) ). My question is does this config look ok and are there some recomendations.

    /etc/network/interfaces

    auto lo
    iface lo inet loopback
    
    # Ethernet interface
    auto eth0
    iface eth0 inet manual
    
    # WiFi interface
    auto wlan0
    iface wlan0 inet manual
    
    # Ethernet bridge
    auto vmbr0
    iface vmbr0 inet dhcp
        bridge_ports eth0
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0
    
    # WiFi bridge
    auto vmbr1
    iface vmbr1 inet dhcp
        bridge_ports wlan0
        bridge_stp off
        bridge_fd 0

    The benchmark with 1B rows in this blogpost seems irrelevant for comparing performance of different programming languages.

    It seems like the execution time of a program would be dominated by loading data from the file. And a lot of people posted solution with specs of cpu but not specs of disk (hdd, ssd, raid) although that seems more relevant.

    Why would they compare languages and solutions in this way?
