I wish there was more info on the homepage... what is special about FydeOS? is it a chromium clone ? an RTOS ? Does it support Networking (it seems to support some sort of graphics, as it mentions builds for various intel chips). We have so

yeah - the 'data display' part was the real killer feature :-)

Dactyls look interesting too (1). Personally, I'm thinking an 'electric eraser' mounted as a thumb stick would be good too. 1. https://github.com/trentrand/ergonomic-keyboard

Hmm - I'm not sure those sorts of things would require a fork per se, but I can see making it more familiar to windows/mac users could be a good thing. I was just curious as I was a big KDE fan back when I used Linux full time, an

What exactly would change ? Only thing I can think of 'normal' users using is ctrl-c/ctrl-v which already work in KDE (even ctrl-win-arrow for virtual desktops could be configured without a fork.)? Different icons/shor

Umm...unless I added wrong - that ~ $5700/month, which is 68K/year. While commenable - I don't think your surviving on $60K/year ??

Gotta Love Derek... "Things I won't work with" actually got me to read some of his other stuff about how drug development and trials work.

Yeah - I find it 'odd' that people think they should be able to get a job in a month or with only sending out 20 resumes...Things have been so good the last 10+ years, that seems to be the 'new normal' and now its tighte

Gotta plug my fav's - odroid h2/3/4's ... Low power, fairly cheap, x86 based, onboard NIC (sometime 2), NVME/Sata and large memory support for lots of containers/etc. Also, low power draw! :-) I've been lo

Ohh...thats a name I haven't heard in a while... along with the purdue compiler construction kit funny how CLang basically blew right by them in terms of option as a 'base' to build languages on.

Yeah - Stratus rocked :-) The 'big battle' used to be between Non-Stops more 'software based' fault tolerance VS. Stratus's fully hardware level high availability. I used to love demo'ing our Stratus systems

PyPy seems soo underrated.... So much work, and so little recognition :-/ I was looking forward to trying it out but moved off python before the libraries I used were compatible (sqlalchemy I believe was the one I was really wanting..

yeah - the bls data still looks pretty good...as long as you check 'software developer' and not 'programmer' :-P guess BLS likes title inflation at least...

Might want to look at PyPy too: https://pypy.org/features.html

by mech422 2y ago
I suppose - though we still seem to have interest in a 'faster' python, and its more compatible then a lot of the alternatives. They had just gotten SQLAlchemy(?) working with it when I moved on to other stuff, so I never got a ch

Oh! How is it for a dev. box ?? Can you get gcc/clang/rust/python ? Does it have a decent browser and code editor? It sounds like fun to play with - I've been wanting to try something new...
