Nix has an install step to use a package, AppFS does not -- not having a step is easier than having one. If you want to use a package, you just use it. Additionally, I'm the author of AppFS.net just redirects you to AppFS.rkeene.org -

AppFS [0] solves a similar problem but with much lower learning curve and overhead for using it, since it removes the install step altogether. [0] https://appfs.net/

Keep in mind that this number does not include people who are not looking for work, for example people who have given up looking for work because they have not been able to find a job.

Lots of things break if you move "C:\Program Files" to a different drive (and make it a mountpoint), updates try to RENAME from a temporary directory into it, but fails because it's a different filesystem instance. IIS used

The alleged violation is using the IP after the lease expires and before the issuance of a new lease. I don't know if that's true, since most DHCP clients request a new IP long before their lease expires to avoid this.

Hmm, not really in the same way -- to do this with linker scripts you would need to rename some of the symbols in the library being consumed. What you can use, to a limited extent, is dlmopen(). Shared objects in Linux are just really late

Outside of the web, I already use a tool called HashCache [0][1] to ensure that I can repeatedly fetch the right upstream source tarball for a Linux distribution I maintain. A simple script I use to download is here [2], and example usage

Assuming that hash is base64 encoded, this solution would conflict with RFC 2616 (and this approach caused Let's Encrypt to fail sometimes too [0] !) [0] https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/may-19-2017-ocsp-and-iss

Tk, and especially Themed Tk (Ttk) mostly fit this. It even has 3 geometry managers. I've ported some code from Tk to run on the web (including working correctly in Lynx, as much as possible) [0], and the problem is still impedance mi

This isn't a stylistic choice for Fossil, it's a technical one. In Fossil, all clones have identical artifacts (modulo private ones) so rewriting history by changing the set of artifacts creates a much harder synchronization prob

I have the same sorts of issues on Android -- I frequently have to kill the 1.1.1.1 app because it no longer passes traffic, but it seems to work fine on other Linux systems that are not Android.

AppFS is similar and I already have a Docker container called "rkeene/appfs" on DockerHub.

I agree (although I use Linux, not macOS). I tried to use nixpkgs in an existing Slackware installation and... it worked but has a bunch of warts, especially GUI applications don't respect my desktop settings

rundll32.exe is just a way of doing FFI from as a command -- there are few different options on UNIX-likr systems for that. The most obvious is ctypes.sh [0]. There are, though, even more sophisticated options than just FFI, like the Witch

Yeah, this kind of check is useful since I sometimes dock my phone and use it with a keyboard, mouse, and 27 inch display and sites and native apps that expect the mouse cursor to be a very precise finger are annoying to use. Selecting tex

As a counter example there's COMDB2 which has zero downtime upgrades, because the client (library) maintains the transaction state and can replay it when the server comes back online.

You can also just cross-compile targeting whatever you want, including RHEL. I wrote a tool [0] which will take any system and create a cross-compiler toolchain for it, this is what I use to compile for Linux, HP-UX, Solaris, BSD, etc on Li

BtrFS is the only filesystem I've ever lost data with, and I've used a lot of filesystems over the decades (UFS, VxFS, JFS, XFS, EXT2/3/4, ZFS). I have a comparison of features between BtrFS, ZFS, and EXT4+LVM at [0], an

This looks neat. It seems like it requires you to install software on the system, which is often (usually?) not an option. Is there anything like this that shows up as a webcam without additional software that doesn't come with the OS

I run a similar thing [0] using GoTTY, but just switch user IDs after the GoTTY connection starts -- this way I don't have to use multiple ports. [0] https://rkeene.dev/js-repl/?arg=bash
