Well, grok build is an excellent product already IMHO
1337shadow··on FOSDEM: Open-Source Is Political – Resist Organize Protect
Yes, it's cost freenode and many more scissions, X.org going crazy, discussing rolling back 1.5 years of commits just to eliminate a contributor from history, it's ridiculous.

There's always one side that wants to impose their ideology to the other. And it's always the same side.

1337shadow··on FOSDEM: Open-Source Is Political – Resist Organize Protect
> Open source, free software, the hacker ethos itself, have all been political from their very inception

Prove it.

> But it's all political

It's not, it's technical.

1337shadow··on Niri – A scrollable-tiling Wayland compositor
Well it does look beautiful but I don't think I can go back to anything that's un-paged neither, after 17 years of dwm. Also, just watched a bit of an XMonad demo which reminded me how much I love the simplicity of dwm's tiling workflow based on having a master window per page (dwm's tag) because it completely removed the burden of window management for me with barely any configuration, I wonder how I'd do without it ... Probably going to try XMonad just to feel the difference, maybe I'll like it.
1337shadow··on Show HN: Pogocache – Fast caching software
Reminds me of this dope lib https://pythonhosted.org/johnny-cache/
1337shadow··on I analyzed chord progressions in 680k songs
Aren't Ultimate Guitar chord progressions user contributed? They often simplify the actual chords in their tabs.
1337shadow··on Google open-sources the Pebble OS
very cool but garmin quatix is hard to beat
1337shadow··on Google open-sources the Pebble OS
> Instead, we took a more direct route - I asked friends at Google (which bought Fitbit, which had bought Pebble’s IP) if they could open source PebbleOS. They said yes! Over the last year, a team inside Google (including some amazing ex-Pebblers turned Googlers) has been working on this. And today is the day - the source code for PebbleOS is now available at github.com/google/pebble (see their blog post).

1337shadow··on My failed attempt to shrink all NPM packages by 5%
Ok but why doesn't npm registry actually recompress the archives? It can even apply that retroactively, wouldn't require zopli in npm CLI
1337shadow··on I'm a developer not a compiler
I remember when we were using an experimental SDN router, it was 0'ing the MAC address field in the packets, pretty fun to debug
1337shadow··on I'm a developer not a compiler
I ask "what do you think about tests / what's your favorite test framework" and "what is your favorite os / what os do you use at home"
1337shadow··on I Like Makefiles
And ... there is no make test
1337shadow··on Austria is sleepwalking toward a far-right victory
In EU, electricity price is indexed on gas price, and so, we the gas price is applied to cheap nuclear energy. Also, care do demonstrate how buying Russian oil to India saves Ukraine? Thanks.
1337shadow··on I no longer maintain my Emacs projects on Sourcehut
gitea, drone
1337shadow··on Bye Bye Ubuntu, Hello Manjaro. How Did We Get Here?
Writing from a Arch system I installed on 2017-12-04 and use as my daily driver, I've been moving the hard drive from laptop to laptop over time and the system from drive to drive when upgrading. Prior to that, I had been using Gentoo for years which is also great.
1337shadow··on Autocomplete – A JavaScript library for building autocomplete experiences
Here's one in 228 lines with an additional 190 to support hidden <selects> https://yourlabs.io/oss/autocomplete-light/-/blob/master/aut... It's a trivial web component in vanilla js, it's tested in python: https://yourlabs.io/oss/autocomplete-light/-/blob/master/tes...
1337shadow··on Don’t open the details in a modal window, have it be a separate page
When external pages can show in modals or separately because you are using Unpoly.js then it's perfect
1337shadow··on Go with PHP
Still a lot more to type than with Python and especially Django
1337shadow··on Near-lossless image formats using ultra-fast LZ codecs
Renewable energies require gaz and coal backups.
1337shadow··on Launch HN: Pynecone (YC W23) – Web Apps in Pure Python
Absolutely agreed, hence the many Python to JS transpilers out there.

https://transcrypt.org https://yourlabs.io/oss/ryzom#javascript https://github.com/am230/py2js

We get so much satisfaction out of writing JS in Python, it's worth all the IDEs in the world for us!

1337shadow··on Stop the proposal on mass surveillance of the EU
Who is "actually fighting for their rights in the UE" exactly? care to share some examples?
1337shadow··on Stop the proposal on mass surveillance of the EU
Why not but then what's your plan against the explosion of crime?
1337shadow··on Lichess gets a big upgrade. It doesn't go as planned
Static typing removes freedom I am addicted to with duck typing, however, I only ship TDD code which also serve as coding documentation. Both are protective but if you're not writing tests then by all means use static typing.
1337shadow··on WikiLeaks is struggling to stay online as millions of documents disappear
For when ad hominem is all you have left?

Did justice, medias, zuckerberg, meet with biden who told them to cover for him? No, who would believe in such conspiracy.

Does justice, medias, zuckerberg, biden, share an ideology that drives them to manipulate the masses? Yes, they are under the influence of the ideology of the WEF guru.

You need to realize we're way past conspiracy theories, we're fighting an ideology which has way too much power, such as making an election with mass manipulation, and religion has absolutely nothing to do with it.

I'd like to mention that I used to be on the other side, with the "anti conspirationists" and other "fact checkers" before realizing over time that I was on the wrong side of what's happening.

Trudeau and Schwab are catholics, Macron is masonic, at what point am I even talking about Jewish? I hadn't even checked their religions. Their "club" of World Leaders has nothing to do with religion, they share an ideology which again has nothing to do with religion, and they document it themselves, go ahead and read the Great Reset by their guru Schwab.

You can call me a conspiracy nut, it's fine, I could even feel proud about it, but antisemitic is definitely not.

You believe in justice, good for you, reality will teach you otherwise (if their cover up for Epstein and Biden hasn't already) one day or another, the hard way.

1337shadow··on WikiLeaks is struggling to stay online as millions of documents disappear
You weren't, but the medias were driving opinions towards that.

Hackers use to fight against governmental corruption back in the days.

Whereas nowadays, they cover up for them.

What a great testimony about the decline of western democracy.

Like the biden laptop story. We must hide information that can be used by far right republicans to prevent Trump from being elected and starting WWIII with say, Russia. Did I get it right this time hn ? :)
