  • It's not the maga group Biden needs to convince. Doubling down when they're already all in doesn't mean much.

    He's trying to win an election so it's the various "I don't want to vote for Biden so I'll vote for trump or not vote" in swing states people he needs to be moving. To those people, Trump trying to go on an unhinged Twitter tirade at a debate could be persuasive. At least that's what a lot of Dems, and according to this GOP, think is going to happen.

  • Not specific to AI but someone flat out told me they didn't even run the code to see it work. They didn't understand why I would or expect that before accepting code. This was someone submitting code to a widely deployed open source project.

    So, I would expect the answer is yes or very soon to be yes.

  • Seen a small company share a nextcloud server running on a old VMware cluster with 2 cores and like 8g of ram allocated... What are people doing with their nextcloud servers?

  • It's a pretty mixed bag honestly. Sure there are some apps that we get in a mammoth poorly made appimage we'd probably have to have run in wine before or some terrifying statically compiled program embedded in a run script and that's probably a win.

    The trade-off is every developer being their own distro maintainer, 100s of gigs of duplicate dependencies, broken containers with missing libraries, leaky requirements on the underlying system, and everyone needs to be a security expert to understand all the options in flatseal to expose the right features.

    Also, instead of one distro source, I've got at least 3 and I've in the last week had to install programs from multiple sources trying to get a functioning version. This feels like the norm rather than an exception.

    Also this week had an app image broken by a requirement on a removed system library outside the app and a flatpak missing a key library forcing me to dig up an old .deb version. The later I lost like 6hrs on because clearly libusb was installed on the system but I didn't realize I'd installed the flatpak and in wasn't in the container. Such fun.

    So it's not really all sunshine and rainbows yet.

  • I'm ashamed... It's simply "bump deps"

    Did I also touch some code and tests connected to dependency updates. Yes.

    Did I document any of that? No.

    Did I spend more time writing this comment the thinking about the commit. Most definitely.

    Will I be bisecting to this commit after our next deploy and cursing at myself? Probably.

  • It was the baseline so... Yes?

    The feature completion was defined as running most normal applications and by the people working on Wayland not me some random guy on the Internet.

    Because no one is going to use Wayland, if they can't.... use it

  • We believe in free speech no matter what.

    Cool, I'm going to say things that challenge your authority.

    We need to look at the "intentions" of the speaker. And by we I mean me.


    I believe in the text of the law. We need to look no further than the meaning of the words.

    The wording of this law challenges your groups hold on power.

    We really need to look at the intentions of the writers of this law. And be we I mean me and by writer I mean what I would have meant.


    Weird.... Wonder what's going on here

  • That's technically true but not the whole picture since it was missing huge (some would say basic) features I wouldn't say it was really "released"

    It was quite a while after that they called it and it's libraries feature of complete. With wm DE integration and multiple monitors coming a while after that, it's only been in the last maybe 5 years it was really usable? A solid option for a lot of people for maybe half that?

    That makes it pretty dang new.

  • It sounds like a joke but as another senior dev, one of the big lessons I've learned is getting really good at capturing all the requests that come in and who approved them.

    It's a bit of cya, but mostly so I can say "I can change that but it's not a bug. It's what was requested for this to do last year. Here's the discussion" It's surprising how often that results in "Oh yeah, that was for x. Let's not touch it." Or "oh that's not a quick fix, let me come back with more information" etc

  • I'll take him at his word. I don't doubt he'd follow through with what he's saying.

    But also the headline sucks. He has a heavy sarcasm to his voice like he's mocking liberal's and the media's portrayal of him and "rabid cheers" isn't how I would describe the sound of the reaction in the video.
