That's a really clever name for your cat? How did you settle on that? :
I didn't, and I hate it, but we rescued it.
Do you think there would be a benefit to being able to weight proposal votes like we can post upvotes?
Benefit? Maybe. Ideal? Nah. The real issue though is not enough people have stake and actively using it.

Well yeah, I guess there is that. I think my sister used to have a cat named Oreo.
I would have named her Potato or something a bit funnier. I like to call her Fatty Patty.
Yeah, Oreo would be funnier if she were a ginger cat or vice versa.
Here's another question. What's your favorite tool for SSH access? I'm still using Putty, but I feel like there is probably something better out there.
Favorite? SecureCRT by a landslide.
What do I use? ssh command line with a good ssh-config so I can just type ssh witness03 and that's it.
I used SecureCRT for a decade, but when I switched completely to Linux a year or so ago, I stopped as it is too difficult to keep up with. There is a Linux build, but it only for Debian based, and not always the latest version. I believe I can easily get it from the Arch Aur, but I just stopped bothering. It is really nice, but I find myself just using
ssh hostand I haven't really missed it much. I wrote a long post on SecureCRT here but the search is garbage so I couldn't find it.Ah, okay, that makes sense. I'm still mainly using a Windows desktop, but I guess I could do it from the command line or powershell. I'll look into SecureCRT too. Thanks!
SecureCRT isn't cheap, and I'd only recommend it if you use it a lot daily.
There are a few tricks you can do to make life easier. I am not sure on Windows, as I use Linux for this, on Windows I'd be using SecureCRT.
Okay thanks!
Truer words were never spoke. What would it take to get you to fix that?
Really not on my agenda to deal with. I have my own way to find things when it is important.
The entire chain has to either be indexed, or use HiveSQL/HAFSQL but HiveSQL will be paid soon and HAFSQL doesn't have full text search on comments so it is incredibly slow. The search being used by PeakD is suppose to fix that, but I find it never works. It uses a third party ELK stack that I am not sure is maintained.
Google is the alternative, which works sometimes, just use site:peakd.com at the end of your query, but a lot of content on hive is not indexed, so it fails a lot as well.
The only solution that works is to use sql searches, but it is slow and it would be stupid slow if a lot of people started using it at once (like through a front end that did that).
I am too often left to scroll through my back catalog when seeking answers I have already made or referred to. God forbid I have to find a post by someone else I didn't rehive, or worst of all, a comment on someone's blog. I suspect I've spent a week scrolling through catalogs in these last few years, trying to save time by finding such posts rather than writing them anew.
