> Linus' cynicism is what lead him to reject oft-requested distros like Fedora (which he wrote off as a "meme") I don't think this is uncommon behavior for the name of a product to effect who is willing to try it out.

For most use cases. There are a set of odd behaviors that turn some people away. LinusTechTips is doing a set of videos where they (Linus & Luke) installed Linux based OSs on their home gaming desktops. They are QAing Linux as "the

> Sounds a lot like Nix's philosophy of totally sandboxed/declarative package builds They are similar but I think of Nix as being closer to Dockerfiles than to Bazel. Nix describes how to compose and build things, of multiple b

If you have further questions ask them and I can see about writing a full blog post which touches on everything I know.

Valve does quite a bit more than just proton. 0. They manage the most popular games store in the western world. 1. They provide a community forum for your users. 2. Host downloads of games (sometimes 100s of GBs). They distribute the conten

I have similar feelings except with please.build.

by gravypod 5y ago
For a build system to be hermetic compilations (or other things) should only see declared dependencies. The least hermetic build system is Make. If you have a target that depends on `a.h` nothing is stoping you from reading `b.h`. More herm

I recently (last few months) upstreamed changes to a project maintained by the SQLite owners. The process was fairly straight forward but the difficulty of creating the patch was much higher. I needed to learn a bunch of things that I didn&

Nothing scientific, just observing ~20 listings by my apartment (that I would love to live in some day). I would however offer that if anyone can give me unfettered access the data of multiple MLSs I could generate some visualizations. I r

If you're already in the market of buying/selling homes and you find a good contractor for your area (if you plan on making any changes) then it can be low touch. Zillow, in many cases, just bought and instantly relisted the prope

I am not an analyst but this is my armchair understanding of the market: 1. The construction of new homes was limited in late 2019 early 2020. This was due to covid and labor shortages and supply lines being blocked. 2. Demand for homes ros

Formatting and readability are two separate concepts (as other replies have pointed out). I'd like to specifically point to a fantastic example of what we mean when we say "readability": https://www.youtube.com&#x2

If you spend $100/month on a thing and I, in a city, spend $500/month on the same thing it could still make strictly logical financial sense to live in the city. Suppose you and I both save 30% of out net income. If I'm makin

There's a few VR reviews on YouTube. Many things break for a lot of the user base. One reviewer has been through three headsets and a bunch of controllers. The RMA process is good.

Is there a way to generate automatic bindings for rust/js code from the AST of the language and a list of definitions to specify? I'm imaging how powerful a Bazel ruleset for this could be. Something like js_rust_library(... d

Yea, fully agreed. I don't care about the existence of an office. I do care about the costs associated with me needing to be in the office. I recently ran the numbers for current job and, assuming I spend $15/meal + $1/cup

That's a good point. I think I'll start doing that. Hopefully it (in a small way) nudges the industry.

There is also Bazel + rules_docker if you need to build many images with many languages and want some consistency and more advanced build features!

Once there's a framework keyboard with a standardized arrow key layout I'd probably buy one. It's an amazing step forward and I want to support the company's effort.

I think a good benchmark for most APIs is if someone, who isn't a subject matter expert, can come in and understand the facade the system exposes. For most LDAP/SSO/IdP/etc systems I'm completely and utterly lost wi

2FA would help prevent escalation of privileges in some limited situations. If you had my sudo password you still wouldn't be able to do anything unless I click the button of my 2fa device.
