Sauerei sowas. Wird Zeit für eine Sonderabgabe für junge Leute!
Mir hat ein Dozent sich aus dem Grund mal verweigert, das Kurspasswort für die Vorlesungsmaterialien mitzuteilen. Ich war an dem Termin als das mitgeteilt wurde nicht in der Vorlesung weil ich eben arbeiten musste, was von dem Dozenten mit dem Kommentar "ja das ist dann eben sehr schlecht" versehen wurde.
Es kommt aber auch sicher auf Studiengang und Hochschulort an wie (un-)gern das gesehen ist.
Schade, dass der Domaininhaber anscheinend erfolgreich verklagt worden ist.
In Bayern setzt man lieber auf mobile Windräder, a.k.a. Flugtaxis.
and then suddenly there’s the perfect use case
Yeah but like WHAT?
Just so that you have an additional data point, here's how I do it.
I run a backup first, using borg-backup
. I used rsync
in the past, then rsnapshot
and now borg since it allows for compressed incremental backups, diffing on the "chunk" level, meaning I won't backup the entirety of a modified file again and safe a lot of space.
I used yay
before, but like you I didn't want to go into it blindly and do some modicum of sanity-checking the PKGBUILD for changes beforehand. Since it wasn't obvious on what would be the best way of using yay
for doing this, I asked around on the ArchLinux Forum, and ultimately decided to try one of the simpler tools suggested in the Arch Wiki, aurutils
.
After setting it up (the author helped me migrate), I now use it as follows:
aur repo --upgrades
: Searches for new versions of aur packages and displays themaur sync --upgrades --no-build
: Performs a git-pull under~/.cache/aurutils/sync
and opensvifm
so that I can look at a diff of the PKGBUILD and all the other changes in the affected directory.aur sync --upgrades --no-view
: Builds the package. It is now available as part of the custom (local) repository used only for aur packages, but hasn't been upgraded yet. That is, apackage.tar.gz
or whatever has been created and put into~/.cache/aurutils/sync/
, where thePKGBUILD
resides as wellsudo pacman -Syu
: Upgrades all packages from all repositories, including the ones from the custom repository
I won't argue pro or against one aur helper or the other, but I feel like I have a little more insight about what happens under the hood since I made the switch. That being said, in the very beginning, I managed aur packages manually. This works also, but at some point became too tedious for my taste. I am happy with the semi-automatic approach I am using now.
Ich schnappe immer wieder mal was auf von https://news.ycombinator.com/ oder https://lobste.rs.
Eine weitere interessante Quelle von kleinen, unbekannten Blogs könnte https://blogs.hn sein, insb. mit Shuffle
.
Ich hab mir über die Jahre eine kleine Auswahl angesammelt mit meinem RSS-Reader. Über die Jahre sammelt sich da echt was an und man kann die Feeds auch durchsuchen, falls man sich nur noch dunkel an einen Titel erinnert den man vor Jahren gelesen hat z.B.
Um noch einen konkreten Blog hierzulassen: https://brr.fyi/ ist von einem Mitarbeiter von McMurdo Station, Antarktis. Ist ausnahmsweise mal nicht technischer Natur sondern hat auch etwas Slice of Life - Charakter.
I should've done my homework before replying then :)
Although the relevant links have already been provided, the gist is
- Acme stands for some "generic" editor here, where you have to use the mouse a lot, which is perceived as slow
- Emacs is known to be very powerful (to the extend of being called an "OS with a bad editor"), but using unergonomic keyboard shortcuts
- Vim is an editor that has been designed for keyboard power users in mind, but which has the reputation of being difficult to learn
It was 2006 or 2007 when I sent a girl from my class a funny pdf.exe on ICQ, which simply restarted her computer when she started it. I didn't know that she would lose a whole day's work that way, but eh what are you gonna do if programs don't have autosafe.
Also, anyone remember "dialers"? Fun times.
I find this unnecessarily derisive. There are good reasons for a UI or README not being user-friendly, the top-most one being (imo) that it is really, really hard to get right, takes a lot of time and doesn't primarily solve the problem the project was started for.
Yes they are wrong. A contribution may consist of "merely" a bug report. Even just asking questions may indicate that the UX or documentation is lacking.
