it legitimately is a neutral network, I’m not sure what you’re trying to say here. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generative_pre-trained_transformer

they are the first thing that comes up when searching “cursor” in both ddg and google, so I think they’re doing ok

idk if 2 users is fair, it may just be my circles but I see nixos mentioned more than almost anything else on lemmy/hn/etc in the past couple years

the instructions for installing on not nixos https://nixos.org/download/

plenty of package managers have.

flatpak doesn’t require any admin to install a new app

nixos doesn’t run any code at all on your machine for just adding a package assuming it’s already been cached. if it hasn’t been cached it’s run in a sandbox. the cases other package managers use post install configuration scripts for are a different mechanism which possibly has root access depending on what it is.

most things seem to have settled on this, but tabs are so much better for accessibility. programmers with bad vision can have trouble differentiating smaller indentation levels, while some of them just bump the font size up so high that 4 spaces takes up too much screen space. each one can set a tab width that is comfortable for them. https://alexandersandberg.com/articles/default-to-tabs-instead-of-spaces-for-an-accessible-first-environment/ has some good arguments

with a forced formatter and a configured editor there really isn’t any argument for spaces

alpine fits that, or derivatives like postmarketos

have you considered https://github.com/a-schaefers/systemE plus https://github.com/emacs-exwm/exwm ? that’s basically an entire emacs userland

4 to 5 added like 2 tags, but was fully backwards compatibile. the painful upgrade you’re thinking of was 3 to 4 where they basically rewrote, it but don’t have any tutorial content other than one of the main devs making an absurdly long series of walkthrough videos so it’s impossible to find the topic you’re interested in

the codebase readability certainly suffers, and this isn’t the only case of shenanigans like this

found the following in our codebase the other day.

while(booleanFlag)
    return;

thhere wasn’t more in the loop body, that was it. the loop conditional does exist and it can hurt you.

linting config itself wouldn’t be defined there, and it would be verified in ci and such, but a setting to tell vscode which linter and extension it should use to show warnings would be.

modern languages may have their own way for configuration but they don’t have a way to bind it to the list of vscode tasks and define how to run a debugger, which is the part that gets stored.

it’s easy to go overboard with extension suggestions, but I don’t think adding an extension for linter used, extension for formatter used, and any languages used if there’s a definitive extension.

My team is split between visual studio, vscode, and I use emacs. we have config for both vs and vscode in our repos since it makes working on a new project so much nicer and means we aren’t just sharing editor configs through side channels instead. it doesn’t do anything to me if I have editor config for an IDE I don’t use in the repo, but it makes it easier for someone new to jump in with a sort of same environment immediately

but if there’s a bug I’ll know exactly which line to look at

that doesn’t sound right, it’s so much smaller if it’s just one line

source?

podman works on windows hosts, as long as you don’t need windows containers

this isn’t a community that they moderate tho

it’s a manjaro project, ofc it’s half baked

json doesn’t have ints, it has Numbers, which are ieee754 floats. if you want to precisely store the full range of a 64 bit int (anything larger than 2^53 -1) then string is indeed the correct type

tailscale also just has a button to buy/enable mullvad as an exit node. if you’re just looking for a commercial vpn for privacy it works well.
