This looks really nice. Excited to find some time to test it out. I frequently have the same needs and godom looks like a great fit.

super quick turn around. Left a GH issue, need to bump internal package version to match deb version: https://github.com/generalaction/emdash/issues/1091

this looks great, but can't test, the .deb package is broken with an issue about NODE_MODULE_VERSION mismatches. There seems to be a PR waiting for approval. Will keep an eye on it.

I didn’t make it a real URL intentionally because i’m not trying to steal attention/clicks from OP’s interesting project.

nice! I made github.com/frostyard/plow last week with a serverless take on this (just for debian repos though). Being served by gh-pages means no git-lfs support though. repogen might be a better option if any packages get too big.

I did exactly this, put it in a 2U case. Fantastic performance, but even with the best Noctua I could put on it the CPU fan sounds like a Hawker Harrier doing VTOL when it's under load. Don't regret the board, but wish my rack was in another room now.

Normally I'd nod and smile at the nix documentation joke, but mkosi's documentation is the man pages, or the man pages.

Sweet! Tried it out and found two small snags, so I sent two pull requests.

Charlie, thanks for all your work on JRuby. It helped me smuggle Ruby and OSS into environments that were openly hostile towards both :) Good luck with the sponsors, I'm sure you'll do well.

New comment by bketelsen in "Ask HN: What book have you written?"

bketelsen — Sat, 18 May 2024 01:31:46 +0000

https://www.manning.com/books/go-in-action?a_aid=goinaction

Pro Tip: write a tech book to advance your career, to scratch an itch, to learn by teaching. Don't write a tech book to make money. I don't have the exact numbers off the top of my head, but Go In Action is considered a successful tech book and it hasn't made enough money to make it worth the time invested if money was the only motivator. We donate all the royalties to a non-profit (Go Bridge https://gobridge.org ), so that was never our motivation... but I'd be seriously disappointed if I expected to make a living doing tech books with a traditional publisher. Maybe others who self-publish can chime in on how that's going for them.

Glad I did it. Wouldn't do it again :)

Imagine a Beowulf cluster of these.

Sorry I couldn't resist.

Bluefin has been my daily driver for over a year now. Love the community of people just trying to make Linux awesome on the desktop. I'm happy to answer questions about the project too.

bketelsen — Fri, 15 Dec 2023 22:21:19 +0000

yes! I've been using the nightly for a few weeks now and this is as close to the perfect terminal as I've found. I love the integration with containers, I do next to nothing on the host itself, instead using Distrobox and Incus. Prompt makes that delightful.
