You're supposed to do this recursively for all the libs no? Eg. Your App might just depend on libqt5gui.so but that libqt5gui.so might depend on some libxml etc... Not to mention all the files from /usr/share etc... That your

Typically appimage packaging excludes the .so files that are expected to be provided by the base distro. Any .so from nvidia is supposed to be one of those things. Because it also depends on the drivers etc.. provided by nvidia. Also on a

Yep, just did.. A lot of those devices don't even exist anymore but the keys exist lol.

Wow. Thanks for this. I haven't logged into Juice SSH in years, but i thought it had all my ssh keys backed up in the cloud.

Good point.. A lot of those colleagues were indeed either fresh out of college (math, computer science, mechanism etc...) or graduated in things like electrical engineering etc.. and worked in software roles for 3-5 years..

I think the biggest thing I've found myself teaching my younger colleagues is basically the internals of the systems or in what ways some of the things they've written might fail. I haven't written any production C++ in about

Out of curiosity, does anyone know how many of the tools involved in the Tiny Tapeout project are available open source? Especially in the project roadmap section.. The licences for proprietary EDA tools are very expensive it seems and most

I really like my HP Omnibook 14 with the Ryzen AI HX 370 chip.. it's sleek, well built (so far, at least).. insane battery life.. the standby time on Linux is in weeks and the battery life when light browsing/YouTube viewing is e

If anyone from Valve is reading this, my biggest wishlist from Steam OS is a proper general purpose browsing tab. Please make it happen .. I currently use that web browser from Decky loader, but that keeps breaking so often. Plus it would b

System wide adblocking, being able to backup any app are the top two reasons I'd still root my phones if i had any choice. You'd be amazed by the battery life improvement you'd get by just blocking ads.. I deliberately avoid

It really depends on the application. With the similar/even weaker socs (imx6 etc..), in the automotive domain, we used to target sub 5 second latency.. we had to get rid of things like even init and directly start the application.. Eg

I think it could be all the compat /support libraries that try to give you the same API across different Android versions.

It's kind of a two way street there though.. Linux is also very indifferent to applications just statically compiling and linking their dependencies.. On top of that, Each distro has it's own story of what licences they'd per

I mean that's C++ development in general.. even among package managers you had to deal with conan, vcpkg, hunter, and a dozen more .. And then add to that the complexities of build systems and cross platform, cross complication headach

I just assumed that Valve ran out of the APUs AMD made for Steam Deck LCD. There were news/rumours that it was originally designed for Magic Leap 2 and Valve got the leftovers for cheap: https://www.tomshardware.com/pc-

I think the conclusion is more that package definitions can still be maintained on git/GitHub but the package manager clients should probably rely on a cache/db/a more efficient intermediate layer. Mostly to avoid downloading

The problem space a full Linux SoC solves is very different from the problem an MCU solves. (Imagine a lot of real time io, interacting with a lot of peripherals etc....) What's eating Arduino's lunch is the various mcus: risc v,

Why? Even if the data centers are built for just AI, they can just ditch the GPUs and reuse them for storage etc .. no? Everyone seems to be carrying a smartphone, continuously creating more high res photos and videos..

For things like appliances (home theater pcs, gaming consoles etc..) you'd want an immutable rootfs that's resistant to random reboots, power cuts etc.. You'd also want stable, atomic, updates that can go from "one versi

I'm guessing: fewer people buying from the power companies/grid => the fixed costs of these companies are pushed onto the poorer customers, who already couldn't afford much.

Closed source firmware is one thing that actually runs outside the Linux system... but there's also the user space libraries that are needed to interact with the drivers (eg libgl etc... or the vendor partition in most Android phones)
