#Linux is, unfortunately, is just too much to deal with for someone with a mental illness that has the subjective paradoxes that I have. What OSs I have played with didn't interact or look that great. The only way to make Linux great takes a great deal of programming and in the age of #github and I just can't handle it. I did earn 2 #programming certificates back in the day, but they are very outdated. While I love the idea of customization, I am too far behind the times to make it worth it.

I'm frustrated with #Github issue search. I am looking for issues on #Flatpak repo that contains "sort" or "sorting". Github says there is no issue containing "sort" or "sorting"

https://github.com/flatpak/flatpak/issues?q=sorting+

but I have found this:

Very excited to announce that @lornajane and I are running a new @openuk Meetup that's digital-only, alongside the other great events being run by the organisation.

Our first event will be a tie-in with 's and we'll be hearing from a number of excellent maintainers from a variety of projects - stay tuned for more details.

Looking forward to seeing some of y'all on May 22nd at 1200 noon (UK time) for an interesting webinar!

(This will be in addition to other OpenUK events still being hybrid where possible)

I think with these little 6 digit codes from a dongle or a little app is a good hack to somehow fix our huge security and identity issues on the internet. But there are two implementations that make my blood boil every. single. time.:

  • not accepting ENTER as confirmation of the entered 6 digit code (you need the mouse, arrrrgh!)
  • just autoloading after the 6th digit is entered, because no-one ever mistyped anything.

if I wanted to have a place to post full resolution of this bike map i've made

and post updates to it

...that sounds to me like github? but it's only an image.

Is that okay or is that dumb?

Github Actions' "reusable workflows" seems completely bass-ackwards. Is this thing useful for anybody? It certainly isn't intuitive.

Oh my GOD. inputs/outputs are /stringly typed/ even when declared as bools?! What the fuck is this horseshit?

That’s about an hour I'm never getting back.

With apologies for being so negative, let's review:

  • GHA internals: spaghetti mess of bubblegum (PowerShell), shoestrings (C#), and baling wire (MSSQL)
  • GHA externals: stringly typed variables, awkward/weak reusability, "cat text into a file to set env vars”, etc

So glad it's the new industry standard!

Question for other #researchers and #ResearchSoftwareEngineers - if you are submitting supplementary materials to a conference, such as a #github or @huggingface repo, how do you anonymize the repo so that the name of the repo or the repo owner does not violate the anonymity requirements?

Is there a way to do this?

We're looking for some new maintainers to join the org 👀

Our GTK port is currently minimally maintained, due mostly to our reliance on the Colloid theme as our base.

We'd ideally use a more flexible base, or write the theme from scratch. This means we'd welcome maintainers who have pre-existing knowledge with GTK theming.

More details can be found @ https://github.com/catppuccin/gtk/issues/164, or you can join the Discord for real time communication (https://discord.gg/catppuccin)

Boosts appreciated for visibility!

tyil,

@catppuccin If you're using #Discord your project is not worth supporting. Use a free software platform, and preferably drop #GitHub while you're at it.

Ofcourse its a fosstodon user that goes hard on making sure as much proprietary garbage is used in their lives...

Wait, I can not publish a #Rust crate on https://crates.io without logging in via a #GitHub account? Seriously? Where's the hidden camera?

Well, 他妈的, I guess there will be one less crate

This is part of the reason I couldn’t get to a good place (mentally) in order to do a real “Saving Open Source” talk at #PHPTek:

From @geerlingguy: “2024 is the year corporate open source died”

ramsey,

Maybe it’s just time to say “fuck it” and #GPL all the things?

The #OpenSource movement was a response to corporate skittishness around using #FOSS, and it focused on very permissive licenses to make corporations feel more comfortable using it. Maybe that turned out to be the wrong approach. Maybe the #OSI helped create the problem.

If the OSI helped create it, #GitHub encouraged and exacerbated it.

How tolerant are you to the software that is not actively maintained?

Imagine you see a GitHub repo with the library you need. But there were no commits for 2 years. Would you use it?

A cool way to keep your profile up2date is by creating a self-updating Readme, a trick I picked up from Simon Willison.

Here is how I made mine pulling in different feeds:

I hope it inspires you to make your profile more engaging.

I publish a new article: «Creating desktop applications using the Emacs core»
https://programadorwebvalencia.com/creating-desktop-applications-using-the-emacs-core/

In summary, I can use Emacs to create GUIs with an Elisp backend.

@boo_ @andros I didn’t foresee anyone turning Google’s browser engine V8 (2008) into the server (, 2009) and desktop (, 2013) runtimes that ate the world, but here we are.

And Electron was originally developed for ’s text editor (2008) before they were acquired by in 2018, subsequently discontinued in favor of in 2022.

Don’t tell me what you can’t see happening if you don’t remember what already did
