This could actually be a pretty big deal

1. The Eclipse foundation has been making alternatives to VS Code’s “killer apps” (Docker, Python, Go, C++, SSH, Live share, etc). AKA the closed source ones exclusive to VS Code offical that make all forks of VS Code a huge downgrade. The Eclipse foundation is also running the extension store that powers VS Codium.
2. “why not just use VS Codium?” (With the killer extensions made by Eclipse)
   • VS Codium is great, but because of manpower limits, they always have to be “downstream” of VS Code. They can’t rewrite any of the core systems.
   • As someone who contributes to VS Code, and loves VS Codium, many issues I have with VS Code have been open on github for +7 years, with hundreds of comments and thumbs-ups. We can’t even sort the file explorer view by last-edited and folders-first (but we can do folders-first alphabetical). Thats been open since 2017.
   • Theia looks like it could finally be the hard fork I’ve been waiting for. A hackable editor, trying to be open source, where all my extensions work, and the community can actually make a PR, get it merged, and extensions are not excessively sandboxed.
   • Will it be that? Only time will tell, but the Eclipse foundation has a pretty good record. They’re definitely prepared for long term support.

Use e2e for all communication you can

He got convinced, its now Auxolotl!

Theres going to be an official reevaluation once the governance has finished bootstrapping.

I read it as “a pin nix” like appendix with a lisp

Agreed, I made a thread for it. You’ve got some good names!

You should learn the nix lang, flakes, zero to nix, etc and try not to get bogged down in the Nix/Aux stuff. Be prepared to wait for things to settle down on that side.

Sadly no AFAIK, even ignoring the licensing issues.

Just commenting here to ping you that I found a new major alternative! I’ve edited the comment but TLDR; search “.NET Avalonia” and see what you think

I mean, manual approval technically does work. I kinda wanted something that would scale.

While I’m really glad to hear about it, I think it would work great for DDOS detection, I don’t know that it works for preventing spam accounts. I’m pretty sure puppeteer with GPT4 could check that box no problem.

PoW sure, but like what’s the tool name. Rolling my own PoW sounds not-smart. I’ve messed with metamask a bit but last I check isn’t real practical for mobile.

[TOTP] Simple to setup / create, doesn’t depend on 3rd party …

Actually I’m worried its a bit TOO easy to create. I don’t need a bulletproof/airtight system but what’s stopping highschooler from installing bluestacks, downloading the AUTH app, and then handling 10,000 TOTP requests for different bot accounts.

The “front page” of most instances are not interesting to average people or to professionals (e.g. local gov that wants to go open source, like those switching to Mastodon).

Part is lemmy’s hot-sort is basically broken as a ranking, another part is bad language filters, another part is that major communities here (fediverse, Linux memes, star trek memes, science memes, etc) are off-putting to out-of-group people because of so many in-group jokes. Its a hard fix.

Same (sunlight alarm clock, getting up super early to compensate, and male) but also I have a heater on a timer-socket. When its super hot and bright its hard to stay in bed.

Same haha.

I’ve already started it twice for lemmy, but didn’t put in heavy effort yet. I’ve got a wrapper for nix that helps with common issues, but its on the messy side.

There are so many small GUI apps I want to make but I refuse until I can get Tauri to build an appimage and macos app within nix. It was more than a year ago since I put a lot of effort on that though. If you’ve got any tips/pointers or examples for tauri I’d be happy to hear them.

Yeah, university is almost certainly going to expect you to be able to install Unreal or Unity, which just isn’t possible AFAIK on NixOS. NixOS is very all or nothing. You can’t just remove the restrictions for one project and hack something together to hit an assignment deadline. Theres still lots of pain points with LD_PATH and 3rd party binaries.

That said, you can use nixpkgs on non-nixos and still get reliability for Godot and other open source tools. For your case, I highly recommend dual booting, and then using nixpkgs without going full blown nixOS.

Sadly it still causes system instability even if you NEVER need the feature.

You might not need numpy at all, but Pandas needs numpy and Opencv needs numpy. Sometimes pandas needs one version and Opencv needs a different version. Well… python only allows one global verison of numpy, so pandas and opencv fight over which one they want installed, and the looser is forced to use a numpy they were not designed/tested for. Upgrading pandas might also upgrade numpy and break opencv. That causes system instability.

Stable systems like cargo coupld upgrade pandas, have pandas use numpy 1.29 without touching/breaking opencv (opencv would still importing/using using numpy 1.19 or whatever). That stability is only possible if the system is capable of having two versions of the same dependency at the same time.

I feel like they missed the most important point in their abstract and top of their conclusion; why is urban agricultural producing more carbon. The TLDR conclusion is “urban garden = bad”. But if done correctly, theres no way a rainwater compost local vegetable using handmade wooden tools burns more carbon than air-freight across the Atlantic.

Its not till much later that they say “If our UA sites sourced all their materials from urban waste, all three forms of UA would be carbon-competitive with conventional agriculture”

And FYI to OP, if you can’t install two versions of the same library at the same time (ex: numpy 1.25 and numpy 1.19) then the answer to “has its dependencies under control?” is generally “no”.

• Deno (successor to NodeJS) is “yes” by default, and has very very few exceptions
• Rust can by default, and has few but notable/relevant exceptions
• Python (without venv) cannot (even with venv, each project can be different, but 1 project still can’t reliably have two versions of numpy)
• NodeJS can, but it was kind of an afterthought, and it has tons modules that are notable exceptions
