InitEnabler··on Setting up a packaging environment for Alpine Linux (introducing alpkg)
What kind of issues? A PR I wrote was merged not too long ago addressing detection of drive labels (Which I discovered while trying to reference drives by-id in zfs): https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/mdev-conf/-/merge_requ...
InitEnabler··on Setting up a packaging environment for Alpine Linux (introducing alpkg)
Mine was at when /dev was deleted. oof.
InitEnabler··on Ask HN: Is It Age, or Am I Losing Interest in Programming?
I found that having other hobbies helped me get back into programming as I got inspiration to improve how I do certain hobbies. For example, I got into 3D printing which lead me to tinker around with Klipper and Marlin source code.
InitEnabler··on Features I'd Like in PostgreSQL
I'd like for bi-directional replication just like MariaDB without having to use the Citus plugin or Patroni. Also I'd like to note that Citus is great however for existing DB's you would have to basically rewrite your scheme to support Citus.
InitEnabler··on OCaml 5.0 Multicore is out
What OSS is out there that uses OCaml?
InitEnabler··on DreamBerd – A Perfect Programming Language
I have to agree. That's a interesting way to put debug points into your code.
InitEnabler··on Show HN: Phoenix10.1, a Personalized Radio Station
Very cool, if you want to go even further with this. You could integrate this using Icecast[1] with Liquidsoap[2] to have a more expansive schedule.

InitEnabler··on How does the Linux kernel run a program
Link doesn't work, anyone getting the same?
InitEnabler··on Greta Thunberg on Mastodon
Care to explain why?
InitEnabler··on Veloren is a multiplayer voxel RPG written in Rust
Oh dang, looks like it's open source too. licensed under GPLv3 - https://gitlab.com/veloren/veloren
InitEnabler··on A Curated Collection of Websites That Look Like Desktops
I contributed to OS.js a bit in its infancy, glad it's on this list. Super cool project.
InitEnabler··on PostgreSQL 15
Citus is great, however do note that reading the docs you do have to change your scheme to use Citus. So it's not really "drop-in" par say.
InitEnabler··on Mastodon.technology Shutdown
Mastodon was created using the Ruby on Rails framework. Your able to quickly write applications at the cost of overhead from all the moving parts and the Ruby language in general (Though in recent years ruby has improved with the introduction of JIT into it's codebase).
InitEnabler··on .NET 6 is now in Ubuntu 22.04
Yup. Basically the programming version of "No ethical consumption under capitalism." saying.
InitEnabler··on Dodge will discontinue its Challenger and Charger muscle cars next year
Interesting, even though its going to be discontinued on the car lot. Hobbyists / Racers will be able to buy full semi-painted (Primed I think) chassis / bodys from there direct catalog - https://www.thedrive.com/news/dodge-brings-8k-challenger-bod...

So there's some good news for the Mopar fanboys.

InitEnabler··on Gitea 1.17.0 released with Package/Container Registry
Very cool. I think Github is the only one who hasn't really added more formats to there register. Gitlab has like 11+ types currently.
InitEnabler··on Manticore Search: Elasticsearch Alternative
Sweet. Glad it's not running on the JVM (Looking at you ELK.).
InitEnabler··on Eclipse GLSP 1.0, an Open Source Diagram Framework for the Web
Project Website: https://www.eclipse.org/glsp/
InitEnabler··on DigitalOcean: New $4 Droplet and updated pricing
Not too happy about this, thought it was just them adding a new tier droplet but then reading further they've increased there gold standard $5 droplet to $6. Guess I'm going to move to some other VPS because of this. Vultr is looking like a good candidate as they have a Dallas DC (I'm in TX) and for there $5 dollar VPS you get 2TB transfer, plus they have cheaper VPS's under $5. (I just do home lab stuff so the best bang for my buck is what I'm aiming for.)
InitEnabler··on Nvidia releases open-source GPU kernel modules
Wow. Am I dreaming? That's great.
InitEnabler··on I'm all-in on server-side SQLite
SQLite, has to be one of my favorite databases. It's always improving and the story behind it's creation is really quite something.
InitEnabler··on Grafana Mimir’s split-and-merge compactor enables scaling metrics
Sweet. I'm guessing this is a competitor to InfluxDB?
InitEnabler··on Zorin Grid: manage fleet of Zorin OS-powered computers for business/school/org
Is this going to be open source with a paid tier?
InitEnabler··on “The smartest engineers I know are burned out and starting vegetable gardens”
Very relatable. I've started to put more of my tech related side projects on the back burner and got into working on restoring / upgrading a old truck I got at the beginning of the pandemic.
InitEnabler··on Add interactive Plant-UML architecture diagrams to your GitHub Markdown
Link is 404'd
InitEnabler··on Terraforming: Moon a better target than Mars
I've always said this: setting up a base on the moon initially would be a lot better than going all in on Mars. Not only for mining and a refueling station but also to optimize living off-world.
InitEnabler··on James Web Space Telescope runs on C++ code
Time stamp?
InitEnabler··on Implant.ARM.iLOBleed.a
What is iLOs underlaying OS? Is it just a mini Linux system? Or some RTOS?
InitEnabler··on Ash HN: Is there a concurrent database that fits between SQLite and PostgreSQL?
I think CockroachDB might fit the bill. Take a look at that. IMHO postgresql is pretty easy to set up.
InitEnabler··on Project Zomboid – Build 41 Released
Love this game. Glad it's continually getting updated.
