<p>Debian is a terrible dependency management solution for adding development dependencies to a workspace (e.g. the same sort of thing npm, cargo, and uv are used for).<p>As far as I can tell, pixi brings the benefits of these types of dependencies, with native support for multiple languages (python and c++ being the big ones).<p>ROS uses debian packages today (inside a convoluted wrapper), imo it would be much better if it went all in on pixi instead.</p>

<p>It’s a funny post because our team wanted to use Claude Code, but the team plan of Claude doesn’t include Claude Code (unlike the pro plan at a similar price point). Found this out after we purchased it :( We’re not going to ask every engineer to purchase it separately.<p>Maybe before boasting about how your internal teams use your product, add an option for external companies to pay for it!<p>Industry leading AI models but basic things like subscription management are unsolved…</p>

<p>Definitely! I agree with everything you said.<p>ROS is still very heavily used in industry and is growing in absolute terms, but most of the newer frameworks and research are learning towards e2e methods.<p>But even if you don't use ROS, it really helps to have a working knowledge of how it approaches things like pubsub, logging + replay, transforms, etc.</p>

<p>Robotics is definitely getting more accessible! But keep in mind it’s a whole different world from traditional web or desktop software development, so don’t be surprised by the relatively steep learning curve. Keep at it though!<p>- Buy a small robot kit from Amazon or a local reseller. Yahboom make some good robot toy car kits. Hugging Face have the open source SO-ARM101 that plenty of companies manufacture and sell now. Expect to spend about $250 USD including a Jetson Nano for a good kit, up to $1000 USD if you want some more sensors<p>- If you can’t afford a real robot, play around with simulators like Isaac Sim and Mujoco<p>- Check out LeRobot, excellent framework for ML robotics from Hugging Face<p>- Learn the basics of ROS
 (pubsub), even if you don’t end up using it, a lot of the industry jargon and design patterns come from ROS so it helps to understand it. Think of ROS like Ruby on Rails, it’s a heavyweight batteries-included framework with lots of opinions.<p>- ROS does have some nice libraries for manipulation (MoveIt) and navigation (Nav2) using more classical (non-ML) methods<p>- Leverage AI tools such as ChatGPT and Cursor when you get stuck, it’s a lot faster than Googling when you’re just getting started and don’t even know the right term to search for.<p>- (Shameless plug) Check out two tools I’m working on: mcap.dev for logging and foxglove.dev for visualization</p>
