Yes, this is what I use Nix for. I’m saying I wanted to use Guix but I have MacBooks that I need to support, and Guix doesn’t support Darwin (the macOS system) so I went with Nix.

I usually search for something by pulling down on the Home Screen and searching from there; it searches multiple types of thing for me automatically (files, photos, notes, web, etc) and is very convenient for me. I would like to set kagi as

I wanted to use guix, but I wanted more strongly to be able to use the same dot file repo across all my computers and cloud servers. Guix refuses to support any non FOSS hardware (like my MacBook) so that was a deal breaker for me.

“AAA” refers to any game made by a larger publisher with a large budget. The general sentiment is they have large budgets so higher expectations are reasonable.

My complaint is chiefly about practical implementation. “I want to use nix as a package manager across systems” is far too difficult for a new user. One document tells you to flakes, another tells you that it’s experimental and should be av

Nonguix is new to me. I may give it a look at some point but I’m already over the pain threshold on nix. Any idea if nonguix will allow an install on macOS? I really want a system like this that I can use on my work MacBook and remote Linux

I switched my personal dotfiles to nix recently, and the “poor documentation “ comment here really hits home. Trying to learn /how to use/ nix was awful. I found lots of guides, almost always incomplete, and oftentimes directly co

Well said. I’m not sure when we crossed that threshold where actively trying to limit technology in a fair and automated way access became “lazy parenting” but I don’t like it.

I don’t find anything admirable about RMS. He is caustic to people in mailing lists, defended a colleague accused of participating in sex trafficking by stating that the victim must have presented as “entirely willing”, has referred to chil

It is probably the “change everything that you did in the 1980s and 90s to be like that other thing”. He wasn’t quoting someone, he was being hyperbolic. Hyperbole that says “if you don’t like it exactly like I made it than you’re unreasona

He also had to go out of his way to make sure that “improve emacs ergonomics” is conflated with “change everything we’ve ever done to be VS Code”. Which has been the standard refrain any time the topic of improving onboarding for new peopl

I’m not sure what else anyone expected him to do. He tried to be a US patriot by exposing systems the public deserved to know about and in turn the US painted him as an enemy of the state. I’m no fan of Russia by any means, but from Snowden

I use Blink shell to SSH (well, Mosh) into a remote Linux shell and work from there. It works surprisingly well and I can get emacs/vim/whatever running without issue.

I don’t understand where this comment is coming from. There’s not a lot of context around it in the article, it’s just kind of plopped in there and not expanded on. Was this some kind of defense being made on behalf of the teens, or was it
