- FOSS. I’m a software engineer and making the world a better place and helping others is why I love my job and what I study. FOSS is the thing that can make tge world a better place and help others.
I also have a plethora of technical reasons, but I’m sure others will cover them. Just this ideological and philosophical reason is enough for me to be using Linux.

0·2 days agoThanks! So probably, we can conclude that he’s getting paid corporate money. Good for him, just a shame if others use it.
Btw, a very smart person can still make very stupid decisions.

0·3 days agoClaims are easy. Actions are what matters. rewriting FOSS program with GPL license under MIT license is only possible from either a corporate backed project (because it makes takeover of a lot of FOSS infra so much simpler for them), or an extremely stupid team. both cases are equally bad.

Programmer Humor@programming.dev•An appropriate amount of work to slap an MIT license on somebody else's work
0·4 days agoFuck this rust coreutils projects.
I’m sure it’s google, meta and some other shits behind it. Otherwise, the creators are just too fucking dumb for licensing their project under MIT.
Awesome policy

Privacy@lemmy.ml•What VPN do you use when you cannot use Mullvad.
0·7 days agoone of the few good things about living in a fuckedup country is that I dont even use a vpn for torrenting.

0·7 days agoI have purchased nym last week.
- I got the 1 year plan which came at a great price (price is really important for me atm)
- its apps arent as robust and good as mullvad, use more resources. But still do able.
- They dont offer config files
- It’s speeds seems pretty promising. Better than mullvad
- It takes it a while to connect. Maybe up to 1m. While mullvad connected immediately.
If mullvad wasn’t expensive for me I’d stick with it.

0·11 days agoI’m taking the same approach for my main work laptop. As long as X11 is working, I probably won’t bother moving to wayland/sway.
Kiss, kvaesto (?), unlauncher.
I’ve been using unlauncher for about a year or so. It’s great.







Good article.
It has pointed out the Hypermedia systems architecture, HDA and HTMX throughout, but haven’t mentioned the name of Hypermedia systems. I think it’s a key concept in our path forward and we should emphasize it more.
I have read the book “Hypermedia systems” and have been building fullstack systems with HTMX and Clojure lately.
The complexity and cost is much lower than the frontend,backend architecture I was used to with js frameworks.
