hopefully the US doesn’t keep being stupid about RISCV lmao

this is great news! we definitely need corporate backing here



Great news to hear. It would be cool if they put out more info/news/blogs about the issues they run into


Haven’t paid much attention to this side of things, but this will definitely be an important goal to reach


I use Linux mint on my old Thinkpad and for the most part it works great. I use Kubuntu on my desktop. Asides from from weird hardware issues I had when initially setting it up, works great as well (Wayland too).

I agree with others: Linux mint, fedora, Ubuntu. Honestly, whatever gives you the least number of issues




I didn’t think that the market share was actually changing much? Like it’s low but it’s still used, especially on Linux workstations with nothing else pre-installed



And Epic Games announced a big layoff coming soon. I dunno what’s happening in the industry rn, but it’s not looking good


Didn’t realize you could host your own, that’s good to know



My team practices rebasing instead of merging, but generally our tasks are pretty separate so conflicts are uncommon. The ones that we do have are not that big.

However I am anticipating more of them now that we’re changing build systems


I haven’t heard of it actually, I’ll take a look


Work:

  • C/C++
  • Python
  • Matlab (don’t use this one)

Personal:

  • Julia
  • Rust
  • Fortran (trying out something specific rn)

My favorites right now are Julia & Rust. In their respective fields they’re a breath of fresh air and I enjoy coding in them so much. If Carbon ever manages to get off the ground floor I’ll be interested in trying it out. Regular C++ has too many footguns


my team had issues when IT accidentally changed permissions on the files inside a bare git repo located on a file-share. Otherwise it works okay as people clone and work locally. Not the best solution but we’re working around restrictions that makes this the easiest thing to do


Being able to download your own data would be a start


I’m hoping that something like this will start affecting the smartphone market


Need to get more companies to stop selling their items solely on Amazon. I hate when I try to go to a manufacturers website and they only sell what I’m looking for on amazon
