Im actually starting a PhD position while having a full time job, at least for the initial course work portion (I don't have a master's). This was the only way I could do it without incurring expenses since I'm now 33 and hav

I made some contributions to make sorbet work with jruby but It's still definitely 3rd or 4th class citizen. That's surprising since I would have figured most enterprise shops are on JRuby

I'm very bearish that the whole "work from home" indefinitely will survive post pandemic. Everyone seems to take company statements at 100% face value and that they won't change. I expect many of these companies to do a

To be fair, the packages have to be patched because many applications assume FHS. The fact that Nix ditches FHS is so what's appealing about it unfortunately there's a huge body of work that assumes it. Most of the patches though

Not a comment on your post but the NixOS ecosystem in general Probably should've used the word "dislike" instead of hate. Apologize. As someone whose been using Nix for almost a year (not NixOS as long) I struggle that there

I really recommend people try Nix first without the full blown OS if they are hesitant. I find for my laptop I get 90% utility that way in including user systemd services. I love all the NixOS blog posts but I hate that they are always so s

The real value is that Google is pumping a lot of money into writing high quality libraries. Any language with similar backing would do equally as well. The golang standard library and high-quality third-party libraries are really great

This decision doesn't change anything as long as software vendors use a permissive license. The fear mongering about all sorts of cases in which might be affected (API, file formats) area under the assumption that the copyright holder

The whole premise or necessity for Nix & Nixpkgs is that dynamic linking and the FHS is fraught with peril.

The reference Java implementation uses too much hard-coded static variables. Look sexy for demonstration, but is it configuration nightmare. I had a lot more success and ease of use using open zipkin, highly recommend.

Objectively great contributions to OSS and mercurial but I wonder how many companies or projects will need to do something similar. I enjoy the patches the make mercurial usable without the crazy extensions that few of us will ever use.

Something like this needs to be included in tcpdump or Wirshark. (tcpdump would be fitting; since it was the genesis for cBPF) I remember patching Netty https://github.com/netty/netty/pull/8653 just to get th

I didn't really get this. Spans in other frameworks are already DAGs; and easy to reason about them as such. Sounds like they just made the API "more generic" by removing request oriented nomenclature ?

Is this a joke ? I thought it was going to be a post about Nix Mounting a FUSE filesystem to get around the FHS in Linux is so astounding when there's a project (Nix) seeking to make proper strides here. Everyone who reads this post pl
