I think the Git problem that needs solution is, ahem, the problem people solve with extra tools when using Git? That is, forges (GitHub, GitLab, Gitea, …). Issues, PR discussions, &c need to be managed with the code (questions like “is

I am aware of the Python library ecosystem. Feel free to compare the examples with Qalculate’s syntax.

Doing units in Python is a pain. No easy RPN/stack mode. No flexibility in parsing. Vector, matrix, and date maths require weird syntax. No good concept of infinite number. Stuff it. I’m just reformulating https://qalculate.

It's the simplest thing you can do, short of LFS. Packages are vanilla; the user is expected to do all configuration in the way intended by upstream. There is no dependency resolution for packages; you typically do a full install of th

(not the person you’re asking, but I have an opinion) For beginners who want to learn how things work — Slackware. That distribution guarantees the beginner will soon graduate to a non-beginner status, or understand that it’s not for them

Gokapi requires an externally-visible IP. It can be self-hosted, but is hardly local-first. Also, why not nginx and a `~/Public` folder if we have an IP.

You add yet another account you need to manage, and it's very easy for your private information to be visible in screenshots/casts, in a cloud managed by the makers of a screenshot app.

Why not dropbox or whatever place you use to share files normally? a screenshot program does not need a cloud.

Upvotes are worthless, and SO is unnecessary in this flow. Write a blog post or a gist, don't deal with SO mods.

Mine, on the other hand, does not power on as of this morning. (and I was not as happy with it as I was with the various Thinkpads I owned)

Yes, that's clear. I'm not very familiar with how quicklisp works. I thought that “updates once a month” implies a separate update channel (distribution, ...). Looking at the relevant issue, https://github.com/quic

What kind of mitm? The attacker cannot modify what you get. You leak the list of packages you download, but I don't think https by itself would have helped — host and filesize would be known, and that should be enough.

Weird how different people can be. The only thing I found compelling in the “great features” list is snappiness. Otherwise, - subject-verb isn’t a universal improvement; Vim provides both through visual mode with an extra keypress, kak&#x2F

Emacs’ TRAMP works well (it’s been available since at least '99, and has been built-in for as long as I can remember), and supports most everything (ssh, ftp, docker, whatever you can get at with rclone, ...). It also works fine with d

I don't get what your site does from your description. Buying and selling used books is what bookshops do. Places like abebooks do that on the web.

I don’t know. The problem does look big, but we’ve all recently seen the Neovim community rewrite a similarly-scoped ecosystem in Lua in couple of years. Logseq seems like a rewrite of a large part of Org, and was also doable. Also, tons of

I thought you somehow differentiate “hacker” and “hacking”, because you are not making sense otherwise.
