FWIW, I believe DNF (as of 5?) is now written in C++.

But as a long time Linux user who always has to use a Mac at work I've been consistently floored by how painful Homebrew is to use, to the point that for my latest corp-issued MacBook I switched to home-manager and I'm not looking back.

I've written some fairly complex stuff in Ansible. It is mostly declarative but you should be careful with assumptions about its idempotency, especially if you reach out for community modules.

They have to wait for the AI scraper bots to steal it for them :(

I'm sure there's technical reasons, but from Google's perspective, one benefit has got to be the non-copyleft license.

I don't think this was ever really a concern. Google and device manufacturers already have ways of publishing non-GPL portions of a complete Android distribution.

Google is the owner of Fuchsia's copyrights. Licensing doesn't matter for them.

It might not matter to Google, but it would definitely matter to the hardware vendors who'd write drivers and ship devices with Fuchsia.

So many GPL violations in the Android world currently

IMO the fact there are so many GPL violations just goes to show they don't care about the GPL.

Somewhat weirdly, if you want to play Minecraft Bedrock (not the classic Java version, but the one developed for handhelds, consoles, and Windows) on the SteamDeck this appears to be the most solid path. I've played it and it works.

I've applied to a couple of these. If I remember correctly PostHog and Enveritas both posted here and for both I went past the initial screening step, but that's where it ended for me.

I also participated in the hiring side for the previous startup I worked at - SoftIron - and we did actually hire someone we found through a post I made here on the monthly Hiring thread. He was a good candidate, but eventually everyone got laid off anyway. I actually felt bad about that - I think we were only around a year after hiring him.

On that note, since I was participating in the hiring, I will say that we had a shocking amount of low effort and AI-written responses to the posting.

Also put an entry up on the monthly hiring thread a few years ago. Even though we explicitly stated US-Based and authorized to work in the US, we did not get a single application from US-Based people. All Indian, Eastern European, and South American.

It seems like it would matter if they internally believed/discussed it being illegal for them to do so, but then did it anyway and publicly said they felt they were in the clear.

That could matter for the judgement if it's found to be illegal. But OpenAI does not get to decide that what they're doing is illegal.

Well we will find out. I think the audience has value to advertisers, and I suspect that basic mechanic will continue in to the future.

> social media sites are already increasingly viewed by many people I know as having dubious value

I think we have all been saying this for 15 years but they keep getting more valuable.

I've been digging over your website; super interested and just applied.

This is kind of a strange comment to leave to the author of the tool that's being compared...

Obviously "nothing in life is free" - the person you're replying to literally spent a bunch of time writing a solution to their problem.

"what do you expect?" - the person literally wrote what they expected after having written the code to do exactly that. OP has been all over this thread being incredibly diplomatic in both explaining why they wrote a replacement for (part of) tmux, and constantly following it up with "but by all means if that doesn't sound right to you, use tmux it's a great tool".

It feels a lot like "well, if you don't like it go do it yourself", which is deeply ironic.
