`nix store optimise` helps a bit

(and loucass)

Is this the fault of the tool or the programmer? The programmer. But the industry chooses short term gains over long term technical debt every time.

When vibe coding at scale, codebases degrade and fall into a strugglebus of complexity with no deep or institutional knowledge to fix it.

You're coming at this from an organization predicated on engineering rigor. But I have coworkers who completely lack such rigor and make everyone else's life much more difficult because of their full-time vibe coding.

I usually use a build-time env var to allow customizing whether to use the pre-built bindings or the build script

Seriously agree - especially if those autogenerated files have build-time dependencies that otherwise wouldnt be present. Simple example: better to generate autocxx/bindgen bindings and commit them to the repo than require every subsequent user of the crate to have to install libclang.

Friendly reminder: LLMs are not moral patients. Stop humanizing them.

Any chance u can link the code? What shader are you using for the water?

Its nice to spend time with the family for holidays but i am ready to lock in when i get back. Nexus VR needs to be built

Niri is pretty great, I've been daily driving it for many moons. Rust btw

Lack of credible exit always was a major problem with ActivityPub, and its entirely unsurprising that meta essentially operates the same as they always have, keeping their users in their own fiefdom with nowhere else to go, and with no consequences for defederating

Building a Transparent Keyserver We apply a transparency log to a centralized keyserver step-by-step, in less than 500 lines, with privacy protections, anti-poisoning, and witness cosigning.

Using an age keyserver as a demo, this article demonstrates how to add a transparency log to a centralized service step-by-step.

We use Tessera for the tlog, VRFs for privacy, and the Witness Network. It all takes just 500 lines to integrate!

The result of years of work making tlogs accessible.

i wrote about atproto and why it matters

Had fun code golfing last week, while working on #basis account "Recovery Kit". I started out with a library size of ~2.5MiB and got it down to ~512KiB, or ~256KiB if I use some nightly cargo features. Also supports no-std. TBH its still larger than I want, but I want to ship this thing already.

Took today to teach my friend some nixpkgs stuff for our NixOS VR rigs. We are both going to try and package various VR software thats missing from nixpkgs. I guess my first Nixpkgs contribution will be for OscGoesBrrr 💀

SteamVR working on NixOS (nvidia 3090, wayland). Its amazing it worked at all. Frames were too jittery to be playable though. My friend who has an AMD GPU had the same thing happen.

Monado unfortunately errors out for me, although its likely something the community can solve.

545 including bots, but we had ~100 real users which is just as big of an achievement :3

I've been procrastinating this for like more than a year 🫠

Finally set up my did:web based bluesky account! Now I can use the fun blue site without worrying about credible exit :3
