A lot of sandboxing ability is there (LSMs, virtualization, namespaces, firejail, bubblewrap, xdg-desktop-portals...), but it's not so well integrated, many applications haven't been written with it in mind and you'll basical

Hydra is the CI/CD platform executing jobs (the nixpkgs/NixOS job is defined in nixpkgs itself). Having lurked for some years in the NixOS community I think it's too early to insinuate wrongdoing. It's no guarantee, but

Got any ideas what you would like to see instead/how to solve these pain points? I've looked into running my own hydra instance recently. It's possible but I don't have the machine that I could host it on for my purposes

It's kind of weird and sad we had to experience this big tech nonsense, but recently I have felt very optimistic about the future of the internet. Perhaps the past 10 years give or take were just the sputtering before the engine runs s

Well as long as we can't formally enforce security and end to end verify hw+sw we'll have to live with varying amounts of trust and checks. Wrt reproducibility: NixOS minimal ISO is now 99+%, GNOME ISO at ~95% (measured heuristica

One has to wonder whether we can reach a "permanently" stable equilibrium (universe permitting), where we can have our cake and eat it too, or whether we're doomed to eternal oscillation. I won't have children that might

Poor people are built differently, e.g. often afflicted by superstition/religion. This cultural narrative is a psychosocial adaptation to a high death rate to induce survival of the population. It often includes niceties such as coerci

Yeah it's been getting on my nerves as well. I use a different mobile frontend now with filters (goodbye CNN and~80 others). Gotta look for a more cross-platform way some time. I think HN may have gotten some wrong attention unfortunat
