- nah, a lot of people working on `uv` have a massive amount of experience working on the rust ecosystem, including `cargo` the rust package manager. `uv` is even advertised as `cargo` for python. And what is `cargo`? a FLOSS project.
Lots of lessons from other FLOSS package managers helped `cargo` become great, and then this knowledge helped shape `uv`.
- codeberg.org for open source, because it's a non-profit, with what it seems, very well intentioned people, with a good governance structure, and it's starting to support federation.
For a company, I'd recommend self-hosting forgejo (which also has actions), which powers codeberg.
(forgejo started as a fork of gitea)
- I bought a roomba because I associated it with quality. It's crap! I bought a nice mopping model. The cheap one I had before was even better with a simple only-turn-left algorithm. I'm not surprised by this.
Reading the comments, I'm glad the industry is way ahead, and I was just confused. I think I'm gonna sell and get a better one.
- I'm no expert, so I'm not sure if I'll explain it correctly. But I've been using docker swarm in a server, I use traefik as reverse proxy, and it just doesn't seem to work (I've tried a lot) with ipv6 (issue that might be related https://github.com/moby/moby/issues/24379)
- NotJustBikes cover's this in the latest video, starting here:

Of course, I think if a company is targeting both markets, you may benefit from some features.
And it's not just about you, but the other people driving around you who pose a danger to you.
- I think once Codeberg becomes federated, it will likely attract a lot of people.
Right now github is great for discovering and tracking projects, reflecting growth via the star and fork system (although a bit broken in the last few years).
If a federated layer is applied to these github alternatives, you could have an account in Codeberg, and be able to track lots of projects wherever people want to host them. Right now, I see a lot of forgejo servers, but I don't want to register in all of them.
- In Ada Palmer's Terra Ignota, part of what transforms society into an utopia is the development of some kind of flying car that can take you anywhere in the world in under 2hrs, making borders irrelevant. This transit system is coordinated by a special group.
I would suspect The Culture would have some means to travel very fast. But you are right that it's never explained. In "The player of games" I think the main character lives in a beautiful house with an incredible view, and I always wondered, how did he get that house?
If you think about, the problem could be solved even now, you could use fast trains to connect small cities, and replace cars completely.
- I did Beej's Guide to Network Programming and it was fantastic, I learnt a lot, and it was easy enough that I was able to do it in Rust. I'm sure this one is as good as all the others.
Point 7.5 of this guide reminds me of the Einstellung effect, I built my own "pomodoro" timer with notifications saying "go stretch" or "go drink water" (https://github.com/reciperium/temporis in case someone is interested)
- This is very nice! I love passive houses, although much of the advice is for the US, not for Europe.
Something really nice I saw recently at a friend's house in Amsterdam, it's a Qettle, a faucet which is able to dispense boiling water instantly! Fully electric, using induction. And I was thinking about this recently, because where I live in Portugal, for the shower and the kitchen's faucet, share a boiler, which it's in the kitchen. If the faucet didn't need it, the heating could be way closer to the shower, making my shower hotter!
- To me it feels like 2 different set of products, what they are showcasing here seems very similar to slack/teams.
Of course, it would be awesome to have a faster and open source slack, and if I can take notes on the same style as my editor great. So I guess, it would be nice to be able to embed zed in another product.
I think this would be appealing for a company that it's core product is code, like zed, but I do wonder if other companies even need this functionality.
- Now that you'll are here, has anyone tried timoni as an alternative to helm? I have it in my to-try-tools.
- I just got a AMD AI 9 HX 370 with 128GB RAM from laptopwithlinux.com and I've started using zed + ollama. I'm super happy with the machine and the service.
Here's my ollama config:
https://github.com/woile/nix-config/blob/main/hosts/aconcagu...
I'm not an AI power user. I like to code, and I like the AI to autocomplete snippets that are "logical", I don't use agents, and for that, it's good enough.
- There are a few things missing I think.
I think kafka makes easy to create an event driven architecture. This is particularly useful when you have many teams. They are properly isolated from each other.
And with many teams, another problem comes, there's no guarantee that queries are gonna be properly written, then postgres' performance may be hindered.
Given this, I think using Kafka in companies with many teams can be useful, even if the data they move is not insanely big.
- A 21 kWh/month it's 252 kwh/annum (I guess?), which is around energy label E in the new EU energy labels.
If you go for energy label A, some fridges have 101 kWh/annum, which is more than half less! I haven't seen many, and they are usually very tall, but hopefully we can see more and more in the future.
- I think this is how iroh works. They have "relays" which are servers that help establish a connection between 2 clients if necessary.
- You can transport your body faster by walking than by taking a car. But of course, this depends on how you design a city. If I have a supermarket 5 minute walk from home, is going to be faster than taking the car out, and finding a parking lot and finally walking to the supermarket.
And let's not forget, that if you want a more fair society, you cannot assume that just everybody can afford a car. I went to university by bus and it was a horrible experience. I could only dream of the modern cheap electric vehicles. But still, the city I studied has barely any infrastructure for this, and you risk your life every time, even though it would be PERFECT for this.
- Don't apologize, you are doing amazing work. I appreciate the effort you put.
Usually you don't make assumptions on the host OS, just try to find the things you need and if not, fail, ideally with good feedback. If you want to provide the "hack", you can still do it, but ideally behind a flag, `allow_installation` or something like that. This is, if you want your code to reach broader audiences.
- Slint-ui with rust (they have bindings for cpp, Python and js).
Quite good, I've been building this Pomodoro:
https://github.com/reciperium/temporis/
I've also used nix to build the packages when possible.
One of the things I like about slint is that it has native components. They also have experimental support for Android and iOS.
The language is quite simple as well. Though it could benefit from something like flex
- That's if people think obesity is just the individual's fault. In nutrition there's a distinction between psychology factors, the environment (called the obesogenic environment), genetics, social factors, etc. If you live in the US it must be really hard to avoid being overloaded by food, so I think the real angry group of people will be companies, not being able to force people to eat more, I welcome that!
My main issue now was the 16GB of RAM using a VM and working on rust, which would kill the system, but now I have more, so all the issues are gone.
One of the machines has become a media-center, with a remote keyboard, anyone at home can operate now.
Multiple screens, bluetooth, drag and drop, night/light all seems to be working
