This setup is a result of months of learning about NixOS and tinkering. There is always something more to polish but I'm at a point where I'm actually satisfied.

Software development and computer stuff in general is my passion. I enjoy doing it as a hobby even after doing it at work. If I didn't have to work for money, I would probably work on some open source software. In fact that's kinda my dream / goal - achieve financial independence and work on open source as I please.

Very interesting experiment. Thanks for sharing! Maybe I'll find some time to run the benchmarks on my Pixel 7 in the upcoming days.

I don't see how this supports your point then. If "setting up proxy" means "packaging it to run on thousands user machines" then isn't there obvious and huge potential for a disastrous fuckup?

Setting up proxy is not engineering.

Of course, but when indentation has a syntactic meaning the formatter often won't be able to fix it.

[–] sajran@lemmy.ml 1 points 4 months ago

It's probably more prone to mistakes like that, true. But in practice I really never witnessed this actually being a problem. Especially with tests and review.

Yeah, that's definitely a good point. But it's a minor thing. Adjusting indentation takes 2 keystrokes in vim, I barely notice it.

Ente is as close as you can get to Google Photos with E2EE right now. I recently migrated there. The migration wasn't painless and involved some scripting to handle albums and duplicates but the service itself is really good. Can recommend!

I really hope this happens. NFC payments are the only thing that keeps me from switching to GrapheneOS. Seeing how the situation with big tech unfolds, it's not impossible that I will decide to give up this convenience though.

So I'm going to say what I always say when people complain about semantic whitespace: Your code should be properly indented anyway. If it's not, it's a bad code.

I'm not saying semantic whitespace is superior to brackets or parentheses. It's clearly not. But it's not terrible either.

As someone who codes in Python pretty much everyday for years, I NEVER see indentation errors. I didn't see them back when I started either. Code without indentation is impossible to read for me anyway so it makes zero difference whether the whitespace has semantic meaning or not. It will be there either way.

I absolutely love the videos on this channel, this one being one of the best published yet. I'm literally blown away by the level of detail and clarity. I think I'm going to watch it more one time...

I'm so excited for Cosmic!
