This is dumb; I love it.

I do. It works so well I've almost taken it for granted.

This looks neat! I've never really been in to web development, but I'm curious... is it possible to create a standalone .html file for a browser-delivered app? Like, not just PWA or SPA, but... a single HTML App?

If I had modest amount of data in JSON baked into html, what's the barrier to something interesting, say... implementing a minimal spreadsheet or maybe just a sortable/filterable table?

I wonder if Rancher Desktop, et al, works with testcontainers.org?

Just joined a team and received an M1 Pro laptop but licensed docker isn't in the budget... tl;dr a bit early to tell, but I think it works.

podman-desktop is pretty rough, but it gave me enough confidence to start using podman generally. podman-mac-helper solved a few docker compatibility problems I had in previous attempts in 2021 and 2022.

It seems like my problems getting started with podman just last week wete mainly due to the abundance of already outdated tutorials. Maybe those who are more active in this space can weigh-in, but fixes and common work arounds documented as recently as 6 months ago aren't necessary an longer? For me, podman works without nearly as much fuss as I remember.

I agree. It doesn't take long to get to the author's thoughts on the most common cause: lack of subject matter expertise. That's cold comfort for those who are working against a tight deadline, though.

I'm not sure what you're missing. I think aggregators are great for a lot of things, but I primarily use it for discovery. I infrequently contribute (like this, I guess?). After discovery, RSS is really convenient to continue consuming that source's content, regardless of its appearance on an aggregator a second time.

Thank you for sharing this.

Ha! That’s not all that different from my experience. I was going to ask if we’ve collectively given up on arguing against DevOps as a title, role, department, etc.

I love org-babel, but am I alone in thinking it’s probably best-used for well-understood workflows? Prototyping something with org-babel usually forces me to kill emacs when it hangs for any number of reasons–I imagine it’s choking while trying to reformat as a table. I’ve experimented with ob-async, but it seems unreliable so far. I wish emacs really were more like an os and could multitask a bit better.

Never mind! I see that this was committed some 10 years ago now. I'm not sure how long GitHub has been doing org-mode rendering or if this was originally hosted in GitHub.

'publishing' is doing some heavy lifting here... I wonder why the author didn't prefer a .org extension on the file. GitHub does a pretty decent job of displaying org-mode as if it were written in Github flavored markdown.

Naively, I imagine the rate of 404s or the percentage of 404s as compared to all responses could be helpful in such a service.

Neat!

Though, I’m a little surprised to see #lispgames still on Freenode. Is the drama behind us already?

In recent podman releases, yes.

In a sibling comment, I was wondering about projects that are trying ASTs. I haven't read deeply about it, but I recalled that [pijul][1] might be a way forward.

I've seen the suggestion of VCS/SCM storing ASTs rather than plaintext for a decade now. Are you aware of any projects that are trying to address this?

I started writing a long-winded thing to enumerate the problems with Teams that no product person at Microsoft will ever see, so why bother? It's a terrible product. The purported sticker price for enterprises disguises the costly loss of productivity due to this mess. It's just a godawful mess.

I’m really not trying to be too snarky, but with the labor market as it is in 2021, 10 interviews in a month is achievable by merely possessing a pulse. What am I missing?

I’m a bit of a pythonista, but I haven’t worked on anything very complex for a couple of years. Maybe my experience is still a little shallow in SWE topics, but can you reify this a bit? What kind of situations have you run into where handling multiple exceptions would have been handy? Maybe it’s telling that I’d have to admit that I’m not sure how big a difference there is between error code returns and exception handling.

I am a developer too, but I haven’t noticed any of these issues on my 16GB M1 MacBook Pro. macOS has been nothing short of zippy.

I wonder why you believe that everyone’s ignoring the issues you experience? Could it be some local phenomenon, instead?

Truly my own ignorance... help me out! Is this port strictly for Apple silicon, ~ARM64, or is that the same thing? Where would this leave support for say, AWS Graviton instances?

I just left a job due in large part to terrible knowledge management. This is lovely. Thank you.

This is lovely. Thank you.

I've looked at this with some curiosity over the past year, but it was only this morning that I decided to take a closer look. While I'm a huge fan of GitLab, I think this is really something special. I spent $50 to show some support and I'd like to find other ways I can contribute.

Hey, this is kind of like a deeper hyperpolyglot.com! I appreciate the nod to learnxinyminutes.com, intentional or otherwise.

Could be pretty neat, but it won’t let me proceed to login with Google.

I was curious how categories and languages were managed. How do you prevent the inevitable “How do I hack The Gibson with Visual Basic 3” if they’re all fully crowd sourced?

Edit: mobile typos

The non-exhaustive list of reasons to dislike containers is also a pretty light list of reasons we’re adopting them. We’re doing so thoughtfully, and moving at a deliberate pace–with this migration, we’re necessarily changing attitudes and culture. Of course, we’re always thinking about break-glass access for something that really needs to be done right now, but... slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

I’m not so sure I’d call this shameful. The official GitHub cli is a fairly new offering and still in beta...

lab is great! The CI view in the cli felt kind of magical at the time. I was in an organization that was bizarrely using both GitHub ant GitLab, and lab+hub really helped make sense of things until we finally migrated to GitLab. Using GitHub exclusively at the new job has me really missing GitLab CI when working the GitHub actions :(

This looks great! I think I may pre-order, but I’m only a bit hesitant. I know Apple brought some of the bigger ARM-on-desktop news... is the future already here (or in a few short months)? How’s life on ARM’d Debian?
