finally finished migrating my VPN chain setup to systemd-networkd. I think the manpages could've been a bit more explicit about the underlying mechanisms (I had to do some digging to find out how it does NAT/masquerading...) but otherwise I really like it.

so I was just trying to solve a problem with Julia's GLFW.jl not finding the OpenGL drivers on NixOS. When I finally figured out the fix and started typing out the command, my shell autosuggested the rest of it. A quick glance into my shell history revealed that I had the exact same problem 2 years ago, came up with the exact same fix back then and had completely forgotten about it in the meantime.

The #devenv CLI does rely on informed consent and neither `devenv.sh` nor `devenv.new` have a privacy policy or will tell you who runs the service and who it shares its data with.

In #nixpkgs the package was bumped to 1.4.0 after which @ck immediately sent a follow-up PR¹ to enable `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` when wrapping the devenv binary.

This was promptly reverted² by the author of devenv.

@monkeyborg i have excellent news for you: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federation

@zeenix you should be able to make it if you walk a bit faster, the platforms at Frankfurt Hbf are all neatly lined up next to each other

"""Liebe Gäste,

ich habe Sie jetzt 2 Minuten lang angefleht(angebettelt?), die Tür freizumachen.

Einen Fahrplahn zu haben, setzt eine gewisse Verbindlichkeit voraus, und daran haben sich eben alle zu halten, auch Sie. Man kann nicht irgendwelchen feuchten Träumen über die Pünktlichkeit in Japan oder der Schweiz anhängen und gleichzeitig dann hier in Deutschland, wo diese Träume gehegt werden, Türen blockieren. So wird das nichts."""

just saw someone on the train who looks like a 20 years younger version of Richard Stallman lmao

anyone else on their way to #fosdem on the ICE 10 rn? :blobcatspace:

@mudkip

this might be a stupid question, but isn't async/await basically the same as Haskell's monadic IO plus parallelization?

The way I see it, futures returning a data type T are equivalent to Haskell's IO T, declaring a function with return type T to be `async` is the same as declaring its Haskell analogue to have return type IO T, and await is equivalent to >>= and <-. If the asynchronous code in the imperative language is pure, it should even have a 1:1 analogue in Haskell.
