I'm getting some mixed opinions here...

Tensor products with my ice cream scoop? Well, at least I can learn something while I shop... 😅

A very broken #Severance #AI podcast from #NotebookLM... things get weird at 1m.

Join us @LinuxUnplugged is LIVE: https://t.co/mfmyaMapeV

@wespayne's self-decrypting bcachefs disk and a GrapheneOS twist that'll make you ditch your iPhone.

[Chris Fisher @ChrisLAS]

Linux is great...until you mess it up. Share your most epic Linux face-palm moments so we can all laugh (and maybe learn) together in next week's @LinuxUnplugged.

@JR_Knox1977 Meant to ask, do you have this open sourced anywhere? Either way, very cool!

[Wes Payne @wespayne]

@JR_Knox1977 Aw, thank you! And yeah... we miss it too 😢. Hoping to continue thinking of it as a long hiatus, but we will see 🤞.

@mikecodemonkey How do you feel about mayo? (Also looks delicious!)

[Wes Payne @wespayne]

@joerter10 And in case you've not already checked them out, you might find https://t.co/ZAGS2nsxc9 and https://t.co/r1Cd8aHy8l useful!

[Wes Payne @wespayne]

Well there goes the afternoon...

[NixOS @nixos_org]

Just give a try to services-flake. This project, freshly open-sourced by Juspay, allows defining and running services in your project flakes and works on both Linux and macOS. https://t.co/hdMgYVPUKo

@joerter10 I did still keep homebrew around, but mostly for apps that needed entitlements and such, e.g. lima. Homebrew seemed to have that figured out a little smoother than nix out of the box. But for the dev stuff? All nix.

@m_wimpress Pure madness, and I love it! 🦾🤓

[Wes Payne @wespayne]

@theoboldalex It is a real problem! Even going back to Python trips me up...

[Wes Payne @wespayne]

@AstraKernel Or with namespaced keywords: :user/id

[Wes Payne @wespayne]

@AstraKernel Don't forget lisp case!: user-id

(Though I'll take user_id if hyphens aren't allowed...)

The preview says LUP but that's just caching! A @CoderRadioShow you don't want to miss is live right now!

I'm perpetually OCaml curious, so it's great to see a nice story around using it with #nix! 🤓👀

Bye Opam, Hello Nix https://t.co/dlWX5U5XHJ

I love seeing people call Elixir + Phoenix the "technology of the week" in @t3dotgg's video.

In practice, they had reached 1.0 before many of the cited alternatives were even created! More importantly, they are *still* in v1.x almost 10 years later! :D
