Yes, this also gets me mad, but the strategy works I guess? I recently bought an iPad for my wife and I ended up getting an Air (M2) instead of the basic one just because she wanted to draw and sadly the iPad doesn't support a Apple Pe

Does anyone know if postmarketOS has a stable (or stable-ish?) port for a modern-ish tablet that supports monitor output and has a good keyboard via pogo-pins? It would be a great device on-the-go to replace my Chromebook Duet 3 (that I rea

`nix-shell` (that is what the OP seems to be referring) is always slow-ish (not really that slow if you are used with e.g.: Java CLI commands, but definitely slower than I would like) because it doesn't cache evaluations AFAIK. Flakes

I think OP was saying to look at when the package was build instead of explicitly adding a timestamp. Of course, this would only work if you speficied `requests@1.2.3` instead of just `requests`. This looks like a good strategy, but I would

I don't get this argument. It is clear that if it wasn't for DetSys making a better installer, we wouldn't have one, period. And now there is some movement from NixOS to bring the new installer as a replacement of the old one

There is also `nix-alien` (I am the author BTW), that automates the process of listing all program dynamic libraries (as long they're not loaded at runtime) and creating the `shell.nix` file with `buildFHSUserEnv`. And also `programs.n

I don't know, if anything the Scala situation seems much worse than the Python situation. The language looks completely different and there is no easy migration path (not that Python had one, but at least the language was almost the sa

Safari have only 2 platforms (actually one since they share pretty much the same kernel and much of the user space code) to support vs Firefox needs to support 4 (macOS, Android, Linux and Windows). I would be surprised if Firefox was the m

Yes, pretty much. While I don't concur with Mozilla 100% of the time, it is still the only major browser that I can have control (e.g.: by still having Manifest V2 extensions available). Also most of controversial choices in Firefox ca

Ok, I think this is a much fair opinion. It is true that I vaguely remember `core.match` being used or discussed at the time I was working with Clojure, so it could be as well that the library has too many quirks or issues to be used in a p

Not sure if I understand this complain, I was a Clojure programmer and from what I remember most of the constructions in Clojure ARE defined as macros or functions. Special forms (that are the Clojure "keywords") are small enough

by kokada 2y ago
Do you have a list of those reasons? I find it curious that I really enjoy `match` in both Scala and Python. While it can be argued that Scala is a completely different beast than Clojure, Python is much closer (in the sense that both are d

This is one of the things that may make me serious consider another Android tablet (especially one with a nice keyboard+touchpad accessory connected via e.g.: Pogo pins). It would definitely be a game changer, and a high-end Android device

I don't recommend using Nix inside PRoot unless this is your only option (e.g.: Android, since there are no user namespaces). The reason for that is that Nix is syscall heavy and using it in PRoot will be slow, really slow. As someone

Yes, I know. This was like in ~2016 and even at that time you would need to build a custom image to fit OpenWRT in 4MB of Flash (I could fit LuCI and a few packages at the time, but I messed a lot with OpenWRT settings and every change I wo

This would be a dream a few years ago. I remember setting up a GargoyleFW[1] (a custom firmware based in OpenWRT) when I lived in a shared house and people would use the Wi-Fi to streaming/torrent and make the whole Internet sucks for

She lived with an iPhone 64GB up until last week and I expect that her tablet storage needs to be even smaller (e.g.: no photos). So yes, 64GB is fine. > Or just don’t get one. This is actually what I am going to do: wait until there is

She basically wants to draw notes and do some doodling, so it is not like it would make much difference and the price delta is huge between the base iPad and the iPad Air.

Would be nice if Apple also introduced a new base iPad with at least support for a decent Apple Pencil. I want to buy my wife an iPad, but she wants to draw and the Apple Pencil USB-C doesn't support presure levels, so it is either a b

Considering it is Apple they could also be using a proprietary profile that side-steps this issue, especially since they created their own Bluetooth chip (Apple Hx). But again, I don't know if this is true or not since I don't hav

Yes, LE Audio is supposed to improve the situation in multiple ways (e.g.: lower latency, lower battery usage, multiple channels, etc) but sadly there is still no headset that supports LE Audio without hacks (e.g.: my wf-1000xm5 supports it

Not really, the main issue is the Bluetooth profile[1] here. HFP is the profile used for bidirectional (i.e.: when you're using both the headset and microfone) while A2DP is the profile for unidirectional audio (i.e.: when you're

Go also has `errors.Join` since 1.20, and one of its uses is exactly this one: to be used in deferred close that can possible raise errors so the errors can stack each other: https://stackoverflow.com/a/78013962 . >
