Upcoming Windows 11 anti-feature:

I’m always slightly disappointed when a very weird book has a - perfectly fine, pleasant voiced - particular voice actor narrating it. They’re immensely talented and literally award-winning, and I’ve no problem listening to them for hours on end. Yet, I kinda want someone who will be a bit more … emotive.

Tired, it’s the weekend?
Start 30-50 new open source projects!
Fulfilling! Looks good on a résumé! A chance for personal growth and development!
You will certainly not regret starting 30-50 open source projects.

He’s a GNU/Linux wizard,
But really just a dick,
“I’d like to interject for a moment…”
Why do you think he does it?
(I don’t care)
Why is he such a tool?

(to the tune of Pinball Wizard, obviously)

How the hell have I never just made an executable configure script and tiny Makefile in my CMake repos to make autotools fans more comfortable?

c0dec0dec0de, 5 months ago to programming

Oh, no. I’m contemplating writing an extensible front-end for CMake tools à la git where third-parties can throw stuff in.

Using git bisect to find where an error was introduced in a project I really don't want to understand.

Mentally rehashing arguments about constitute authentication factors and getting angry.

There’s an LLM called Grok? What the fuck. Seriously. Tech bros understand the absolute most obvious thing from your favorite piece of science fiction, please.
The meaning of grok is in the plain text! We’re not even talking about obvious metaphor, it’s just a made-up word for truly deep understanding and you’re going to name your idiot, fabulist, word generator after it?!

Cursed idea of the day: a dnf plugin that runs jfrog-cli as the initiating user to download from JFrog Artifactory.

Current, unpaid-for projects I want to work on:
A tool to strip out nondeterminism from RPMs
A tool to run only CTest executables affected by a list of changed files
CMake scripting to automatically add all the necessary subpackages as dependencies of the devel subpackage
My headcanon version of git-grep
A requirements tracker website à la UCF, but free; or OpenSSF badge app, but customizable and can be self-hosted
Terminal classification banner
Virtual console classification banner

Dog-walking thought: Does git-grep exist (yes) to allow you to search through the whole of the repo for changes (no, that’s in git-log)?
#git

c0dec0dec0de, 6 months ago to linux

I have a stupid idea, but I'm not quite sure how to make it happen. Modern linux systems seem to be eschewing virtual consoles, but assuming that you wanted to keep using them and also had to meet a requirement to display a classification banner on-screen at all times, where would be the best place to try to insert a banner, agetty?

Reading (and absolutely loving) Ferrett Steinmetz’ Flex. I would swear that @EAPodcasts did a read of one of the chapters a ways back, and it’s what got me to put it in my list to buy.

How and why is Microsoft Teams even installed in this system?! It’s using a whole processor?!

Finished @marthawells newest Murderbot Diaries, System Collapse, and - aside from wanting to go back and immediately reread it - I’m still puzzling over whether I think it’s funnier/better if Cruel Romance Personage is the original title of a piece in-world media, or a correct, but clunky translation of the original title.

Can’t find it now, but there was a thread about C not being a direct interface to hardware (said that proponents had been repeatedly bodied).
It’s worth adding that assembly isn’t the “language of the machine” for modern CPUs either. At best, it’s an API for talking to a processor. The chip will decide how to do what you’ve asked and reassign registers to ones that only exist within the silicon, interleave other code as it can…
@twoscomplement had an episode on it that was fun to listen to.

TIL about Python regex named capture groups and the groupdict() method of the Match class. So I guess I’ll be committing more regex crimes.

@bruxisma do you have any CMake nonsense for intuiting what tests to run to cover a set of changes?

Dog: Dad! I gotta pee.
Me: It’s cold and rainy, can it wait?
Dog: I’m about to pop!
Me: Fine.
Dog: goes for a mile and a half walk without so much as sniffing the grass on the side of the road to pretend he’s looking for a good spot to pee
