Sweet! Now that 4.20 is officially released it's in Nixpkgs. That means xfce4-panel is 4.20 in unstable

Might go back to Hyprland from KDE now that there's a half-decent bar for Wayland compositors!

Yes. The only way to send patches without something like Github is over email. I don't mind all the other stuff, but there's no other way to do PRs than over email, and I hate email. I didn't see that he gave alternatives. His preferred solution was an email

The formal PR button in a forge is a way to do that with one click, but a short email with all the same information is just as good.

Like, dawg, no it aint

I wouldn't mind doing a self-hosted git repo and only using cli if I didn't have to also use email to do so.

Seriously the worst part. Email is a technology that should be left in the past. It's just awful. There's no good way to do email.

Isn't anarchy just against imposed hierarchy? Most anarchists I've met are okay with heirarchies that form naturally, and believe those hierarchies to be enough for society to function, hence why they call themselves anarchists, not minarchists.

Or roll your own via a compositor and various tools a la Hyprland

Bro what? TI has like... the best docs. What are you talking about? They have the Microsoft C# docs of the semiconductor world. Clear examples, every little detail, well organized. Darn near perfect example of what to do

I mean, it's fine. And if you can't find something the NixOS subreddit is usually pretty helpful

I have another one:

30min of fighting with an LLM can save you 10s of boilerplate

GLFW is a C library, not a C++ one, and an old one at that, and so the reason is that a long time ago, there was no bool in C. Every library would make their own true and false bc it's handy to have.

Nowadays, the type _Bool has been added to C, and C++ has built-in bool, but you can still see the legacy of no boolean in C as to use the type name "bool" as well as the key words "true" and "false" for 1 and 0, you have to include "stdbool.h," as well as in custom types in these old GL-adjacent libraries.

And that's why I don't use Python for anything more than simple scripts

Tbf the devs said "compatibility layer"

No bc of camera proprietariness

Could I do:

        signature primes_less_than(x: number) -> [number]
    example primes_less_than(2) = []
    example primes_less_than(10) = [ 2, 3, 5, 7 ]
    primes_less_than(10582319112759318014901241439012831231539517)

I don't pay for OpenAI, so I can't try the playground

What packaging types are there for Rust? Isn't everything just source-based through cargo?

Rust and Haskell (I think Haskell counts)

Pantheon desktop from elementaryOS.

You can use it on their distro (Ubuntu based with lots of curated apps) or on its own (you can still get access to their curated apps, just not in the store)

EDIT: Sorry, I misunderstood. You want classic Mac. I'd say get Xfce4 and theme it yourself then.

• PlatiPlus for window manager theme
• Platinum Gtk2 Theme
• Platinum9 for the Icons

Here's an example: https://www.reddit.com/r/unixporn/comments/4l9tlp/xfce_another_nine_based_os_9_based_theme/

I find Rust crates generally have pretty good docs. Docs.rs is a major time saver
