I just pulled my Bangle.js 2 back out to play with making a better reminder system for myself. It works better than any of the other open source watches I’ve had with my GrapheneOS phone. The hardware isn’t open source as far as I know, but their mobile app (fork of gadget bridge) is, as are all the apps that run on the watch, and (I think?) the watch OS.

Check your state or country’s laws, you might not even need the contract amended. In the state that I live in any contract clause that tries to prevent you from doing any work entirely on your own time with entirely your own materials is explicitly unenforceable.

Plus if it’s just a small open source library (assuming your employer is sane) it’d be a waste of money for them to even ask a lawyer to write a letter to you, because why would anyone care.

If you really care about getting it right, you can find a local employment attorney and have them explain your local laws and edit and/or negotiate your contract for you. I did that once, but I felt like it was probably a waste of the $900 I paid. (I mean, it definitely was a waste in that case because that job was a nightmare and it only lasted 2 months, lol.)

Yeah, the last 5 jobs (of 6 jobs) I’ve had I’ve applied with a markdown file or just a link to the rendered webpage in an email, IIRC.

In my head at least, it helps me filter for companies/managers that appreciate a hacker mentality. I also suspect it might help the applicant tracking systems parse my shit more correctly since it’s just plaintext. (Though the opposite could also be true since I assume the vast majority of submissions would be PDF.)

I wrote my CV in markdown for my website. I just submit the markdown file as the resume. For the few jobs I’ve applied to that have required a PDF, I just copied the text from my webpage (to get rich text formatting) into LibreOffice and exported as a PDF.

Though, I might not not be the best example to follow, I’ve been unemployed for almost 6 months.

I’m in the process writing my own version of webscript.io, an old service that died back in 2017. It was a dead simple service that would run a Lua script for each HTTP request that came in to a URL. It sounds pretty trivial, but it was remarkably useful for hacking together little scripts for things like watching webpages for changes, little custom APIs for DIY IoT devices, translating from one API to another, and other simple stuff like that.

I’ve got enough of it built that I’ve been able to make a few actually useful things with it already. A few different job posting website scrapers were the first thing I made. I also made a little script that queries a live traffic api and sends my wife an estimated drive time for her commute home. The plan with that one is to watch the drive time as it’s getting closer to the end of the day and if it starts spiking earlier/worse than normal, it can email her letting her know she should leave early if she can.

I’ve been wanting to play this for years, it seems right up my street, but I’ve never been able to get it working. No matter how much I fiddle with in-game settings, steam input, or proton, I can’t get it to do anything but immediately look down and spin the camera.

1. Post your actual configs and logs or people will only be able to guess. (Censor any secrets.)

2. My guess: It’s probably your nginx config.

3. Why are you using 0.19.4? That version is over a year old.

I’m curious, have you used Rust much? Most of those changes just feel like “rust should be more familiar to me” changes.

Also:

As Rust 2.0 is not going to happen, Rust users will never get these language design fixes

Isn’t necessarily true for most of your suggestions. Since most of them are just changes to syntax semantics and not language semantics they could be made in an edition.

Edit: Oh, I just saw your budget. This is ~$800, so maybe not.

There’s the Starlite 5: https://us.starlabs.systems/products/starlite?variant=55242571612540

I’ve got one. It’s got an x86 processor and runs standard fedora just fine, including pen input.

Though, I don’t use it for much because I haven’t found any note-taking software that I actually like using. I used something back in college that just created SVG pages in an HTML notebook which I absolutely loved, but I can’t find it now. It wasn’t open source so I’m guessing it might have just died.

I agree that would make sense. I think it’ll come with time.

To others, I’m pretty sure what OP is suggesting is just a generic activity pub server that all the various front ends could use.

I’m pretty sure this is what the original (?) authors of the AP spec intended and that’s why they specified a client-server protocol. My understanding is that (almost?) no one uses that API though, they all just specify their own.

No, this is fallout from a patchset adding exactly the rust library you suggest to use the DMA library. And despite this only having changes in the rust/kernel tree, the maintainer of kernel/dma showed up to NAK the patch just because he doesn’t like the idea of rust code in the kernel.

It doesn’t sync to homeassistant, but I use a Xiaomi scale with openScale off of F-Droid. There’s a few different scales supported: https://github.com/oliexdev/openScale/wiki/Supported-scales-in-openScale

Yep, I’m genuinely unsure if the conversations actually happened or not. I’ve gotten different answers to that from different people.

As someone who is currently hiring: Anything

Beyond that it depends on what you know and what kind of work you want to do.

At work we have a contractual design deliverable that was due yesterday, I still can’t get anybody to tell me what I’m supposed to be designing/building. I’ve got the contract, but its so vague that it’s more unhelpful than it is helpful and there’s apparently been 9 months of conversations with the customer, none of which have included engineering, nor has anything from them been written down. So we’re designing something just based on rumors.

So we’re in crunch mode, but also we don’t know what we’re trying to accomplish… 😩

They may block IP addresses associated with consumer ISPs. Assuming that’s the case, I would guess you’re seeing that as an HSTS/TLS error because their network is trying to trick your browser into redirecting to/displaying an error page hosted by some part of their network.

Hey, this might be something I’m interested in, but I’m not sure because there aren’t many details in your readme.

Some questions I’d suggest you answer in the readme:

[Edit: after looking through the code quickly, some of my questions probably don’t male sense because this seems to be an alerting style monitoring tool, not a observability style monitoring tool. Answering my own questions for others that are curious:]

What does it monitor?

[Disk space and CPU use]

What is the interface? Web? It does compare itself to grafana, so maybe. TUI? Maybe that’s what makes it more light weight?

[It doesn’t have one, it sends telegram messages when alarm thresholds(?) are hit.]

Does it only work on Debian? If not, are there deps that are required that are installed as dependencies of the deb?

[Looks like it should work anywhere, the ‘watchers’ use the nix crate and read procfs, so I assume that means it should work anywhere without depending on anything besides the Linux kernel.]

Is there history or is it real time only?

[Realtime only, well I guess there’s the telegram history.]

What does it look like? (Honestly, a screenshot could possibly answer most of these questions and a whole lot more.)

[It doesn’t look like anything. There’s no screenshot because there’s nothing to screenshot.]

Unless you’re working with people who are too smart, then sometimes the code only explains the how. Why did the log processor have thousands of lines about Hilbert Curves? I never could figure it out even after talking with the person that wrote it.

C was originally created as a “high-level” language, being more abstract (aka high-level) than the other languages at the time. But now it’s basically considered very slightly more abstract than machine code when compared to the much higher level high-level languages we have today.
