All good. Do you have a dotfiles repo somewhere?

Sorry. I didn’t mean to offend and it’s not an attack at the project in anyway - sorry if it came across that way. I think tools to help you manage RC files are great. I just dislike tools that automatically inject themselves automatically (like rvm), my statement was in no regards about the tool you wrote.

When I’m contracting at a client sometimes they have boot strap scripts which push configuration out to your rc files that I want to gate. (Usually b/c I am using my own equipment or doing something a little strange.)

Thanks somehow I missed that

Open source?

Miniflux + RSS Guard, Feedly, KDE Akregrator… Depending on what I’m following.

And then you can immediately solve the issue with programs arbitrarily adding things to your rc file by running:

add exit

More wishful thinking of this person than fact. The more to SPA and all the focus on javascript frameworks is more likely to be related to this shift than linux. But I get it, the writer knows that the ground is shifting and is trying to connect things that they and other people dislike into one big bad.

Happy with gentoo moved back after 14 years away, (ran 2003->2009, 2023->now) I like it because I can easily and sustainably make anything a package and build it as minimal as I like, along with easily modify packages (ebuilds) and flags as needed.

I liked 3 a lot, it introduced a lot of new elements paving the way for world. But world IMHO is better.

Anyone know the technicals behind this?

Thanks. Convinced me to give it a go

I like kdiff3, vimdiff, and … intellij. Kdiff3 and intellij do “directories / file structures” too but I’m not sure the level you want it. Neither are cli though.

Be wary of any article talking about shortages as it’s a supply demand curve and the demand is the one posting. Also in Vic for people with a degree they can get a 1-year teaching diploma rather than a 4 year education degree, so the supply could quickly scale up if it was an actual attractive option, teaching isn’t exactly a occupation where people don’t know it exists so it has a lot of visibility.

I ran Gentoo Linux 2003 to about 2008. I initially picked it up because of a hype. However, I loved the degree of customisation over the system that I got at the time. The install process teaches you of alternatives to things that distributions would include. It gave me a lot more choice as to what I used with my system and the process of installing. It definitely made me understand how the system worked a lot more.

I reinstalled it 2023 and I’m still using it too today. My reasons are different now. One is a hint of nostalgia. However, another is the package manager. Since the package manager is only text files, it is very easy to extend and change with your own packages. Releasing packages on other systems is much more involved process.

Another reason is when you compile the code yourself you can choose the options to some it degree with use flags. I still build my own kernel as I can choose what to include and I think I will be moving to a unified Kernel in efi soon and do away with grub.

Using Gentoo compared to most other distributions the system feels more open and more malleable.

While I do consider arch rather similar and I did use it for a couple years. The AUR scared me a bit.

I’m looking for something similar. I did start a project for something more general but, incomplete project pile.

I’ve gotta finish SC. Sadly I started full time work around the time of it’s release.

The article makes it sound like it’s marketing, I’m going to guess it’s because internet advertising doesn’t work with the audience they want or they got some diminishing returns. Sounds expensive though.

What are the requirements for getting something on the list?

Never forget never forgive.
