NixOS, plasma rn but sometimes jump to sway. I’d say distro is more relevant. for the most part I just have an editor and a browser open, DE doesn’t change much about my workflow. NixOS definitely does though

chosen by my team, company at large doesn’t care but it’s nice for everyone to be on something consistent. company devices

NixOS is a nice balance of the two

I generally just copy my personal setup, which I’ve spent a decent amount of time on, but because I enjoy it

not particularly, but nix supports all of the big ones

language and stack a little bit, it’s all stuff that has good integration with nix. we deploy nix containers and then have consistent environment everywhere without having to work in a container. my team is a pretty standard team maintaining some full stack web stuff

it doesn’t matter how it was made once it’s secondhand since it doesn’t support the manufacturer

I suppose there’s people that bought the original item since it had resale value, but I really doubt that’s significant overall, especially at most thrift stores

I feel like it’s probably not a high priority, but the company I worked at that selfhosted gitlab was also paranoid about dependencies disappearing and so mirrored every repo they had a dep on.

I imagine that’s not that rare of a situation and it would have been a nice qol kinda thing if we could have federated with the upstream and gotten a backup of issues and such and could do everything on the one platform. definitely not important and requires upstream to also federate, which will never happen for github so not important

I’m saying we weren’t taught when react was the way people wrote sites. if I was writing a site with pure html, css is great, especially modern css.

but if I’m already using react and their abstractions, opinions on that part aside, I’d personally rather lean on the react component as the unit of reuse. tailwind removes the abstraction that you don’t need, since many people in react tend towards one scoped css file per component with classes for each element anyway

at this point I’d be more inclined to say for many sites the api and data fetching things are the content and html+css is presentation. csszengarden is cool but I haven’t seen the html/css split help an end user, or really even me as a developer.

instead of using classes you just use whatever your ui library provides for reuse. stick a classname string in a variable and you have a class. use a component and it just contains all its styles.

unless you mean that if you look in the inspector you see a mess of classnames. I don’t have a solution there

shadcn is the primary one for react at least. they’ve done a great job filling the space where you’re trying to build up a design system but don’t want to start from scratch, but they’re great if you just want prebuilt components too

all the components build on something else like radix, and are pretty simple themselves. normally just the radix component with styles. Installing a component just copypastes the source into your project at configured locations.

if you’ve ever fought against something like mui to get it to fit design changes or change specific behavior, shadcn is great. at some point the extension points of a library aren’t enough, but if you own all the code that’ll never be a problem.

except we generally use higher level abstractions now, like component based frameworks. If you’re writing raw html with tailwind and no library you’re doing it wrong and css is a better fit.

well written straight css ends up building it’s own tree of components. if you’re using react too you’re either only selecting a single component (inline styles but have to open two files) or writing good css (duplicating the component hierarchy in css).

tailwind is just the former but better since it encourages using a projectwide set of specific sizes/colors/breakpoints and small scope, the two actual problems with inline styles after organization and resuse, which react etc solves.

you could look at the user agents and have 2 versions, one for normal browsers and one for Links and similar.

you could also probably do something terrible with having an initial page that supports both, adding a cookie and detecting if the css file gets downloaded, then after that point serving them the css styled if they did or the table styled if not. you could even reload the page with js if it’s enabled and you detect the css was downloaded. this hinges on Links and similar not even downloading the css, which I’m not sure if is true.

even without hotswappable switches there’s a good chance you’d be able to replace the switch anyway

if cleaning it doesn’t work, you should be able to look up how to desolder and then replace the switch yourself. you should only need a cheap soldering iron, some wick, some solder, and a new switch.

as long as it’s easy to physically get the keyboard apart, the switches should be just about the easiest thing to solder there is

not at all related to the content of the messages like the title implies, just that they kept sending the messages to people that had told them to stop.

probably about the same as like vapor smoothing abs with acetone. I think pla has solvents that work too but they’re much nastier

I’m sure all of them are just cherrypicked hotfixes from main tho

repr is generally assumed to be side effect free and cheap to run, so things like debuggers tend to show repr of things in scope, including possibly exit

also then it behaves differently between repl and script, since repr never gets run. to do it properly it has to be a new repl keyword I imagine, but I still don’t know if I’m sold on the idea

yeah fair enough. that wasn’t really my point and I wasn’t paying attention

yeah it’s incorrect bc it destroys multibyte characters, but no idea what you’re saying about u8 being a different type from unicode. the original code was reading bytes and converting them too? the typing isn’t the issue, you can still store utf8 as a series of bytes

I mean, I’m not a big fan of bash, the most likely default shell, so my advice would be to explore some alternate shells.

I am a little surprised completions aren’t working in bash by default, but yeah idk if it’s possible to get the cycling through suggestions. double tap tab and it should at least list the options though.

I’d recommend you hop between some shells and see what you like. most distros tend to keep the default shell pretty vanilla, the most change you’ll get is maybe zsh with some nicer defauls.

nushell is great and would be my first recommendation. everything is structured like powershell, but way less verbose and more emphasis on integrating the existing cli ecosystem than pwsh’s commandlets for everything.

fish or oh-my-zsh are things other people recommend. you don’t get structured data but they do give a better completion experience and other nice things

I want to like xonsh, and used it for a few years, but it has the same problems pwsh has with separate ecosystems of structured commands and unstructured text. if you’re a python person though I’d consider it too though.

there are other shells that have all the nice powershell things without the weird stuff (at least for not windows people), like nushell

although I wouldn’t be surprised if powershell was the thing that started the trend of better shells

are they switching to Teams or Teams?

ones that can run cli tools do great, they just use npm

because with things that the compiler does, like padding for alignment, it frequently takes up more space than that. that was my argument the whole time. what til are you talking about? I’m talking about an extra layer you’ve decided doesn’t count. ofc sizeof bool will be a byte in all of those languages.

a bool taking up a single byte is a fantasy that those languages use because developers generally don’t need to think about all the other stuff going on.
