If you do multi stage builds (example here) it is slightly easier to use venvs.
If you use the global environment you need to hardcode the path to global packages. This path can change when base images are upgraded.
uthredii 2 weeks ago • 100%
Sure, but in the case where you upgrade python and it affects python packages it would affect global packages and a venv in the same way.
uthredii 2 weeks ago • 100%
upgrading your base image won’t affect your python packages
Surely if upgrading python will affect your global python packages it will also affect your venv python packages?
you can use multi stage builds to create drastically smaller final images
This can also be done without using venv's, you just need to copy them to the location where global packages are installed.

I'm not really against it if there is a demand and people want to buy/sell/trade here. If buy/sell/trade gets too much we could restrict it to a sticky thread.
It might be easier for people to find buyers/sellers on the framework forum category that @narc0tic_bird@lemm.ee pointed out though.

I don't think they have anything to do with each other, it looks like prefix.dev uses conda packages.

Yeah it is, eventually they want UV to have feature parity with rye and rye will basically just be a pointer to UV

Early on uv was only trying to replace pip. This latest update is a big step towards becoming a poetry (and pyenv/pipx) replacement too.
TL;DR: uv is an extremely fast Python package manager, written in Rust.

It worked for me with just: virtualisation.libvirtd.enable = true;
in the configuration.nix

Stable channels provide conservative updates for fixing bugs and security vulnerabilities, but do not receive major updates after initial release.
If you want up to date packages then use the unstable channel.

Nix has the most unique packages and the most up to date packages of any Linux software repository. It has substantially more fresh packages than Arch or Alpine (which you say does a better job in a separate comment).

Yeah I agree, I am sure they are missing some obscure stuff. But in practise it has everything that I use and there has been no need for me to touch flatpak/appimage/snap
uthredii 2 months ago • 100%
yep, I mean a GUI based software centre
uthredii 2 months ago • 81%
NixOS:
- Largest and most up to date package repository (no need for flatpack/appimage/snap ect)
- Reproducible
- Declarative
- Rollbacks you can select at boot time
- No dependency conflicts
I think it will easily be the number 1 distro if/when they can :
- the steep learning curve (e.g. have a gui installer EDIT: As in a GUI software centre)
- documentation
- have more tools use nixos and have nixos in mind (e.g. there are a couple of tools that didn't work for me because of specific C libraries not beeing present/configured on nixos that are present on other distros. some libraries implicitly expect these to be present).
Came out a few days ago, but I thought it was worth posting here =)

One thing I haven't seen mentioned is that not moving between mouse and keyboard so much reduces the risk of getting an RSI. So even if it didn't make you faster it would still probably be worth it to find a keyboard based workflow.
I use Helix and would suggest you try it (at least to start off with) as it is easier to learn than vim and does not require plugins or a complex config. To answer your question I will go from the less to more advanced/complex:
- Move a line to a new position in the file/another file (takes a couple of seconds)
x
thend
to select a line (pressing N times will select N lines) and delete it (delete will also copy to the clipboard)- navigate the cursor to the new location
p
to paste in a new
- Navigating around a file:
- jumping to a function/class definition by pressing
g
thend
when on a function/class usage. - getting a list and navigating to class/function calls when the cursor is on a class/function definition by pressing
g
thenr
.
- jumping to a function/class definition by pressing
- Multi cursor editing - I use this to make edits to multiple places at once. I most recently used this to extract the names of 30 tables that are used in a SQL file. This probably took ~5 seconds and I barely thought about it. To do this I used:
%
to select the entire files contentss
to search- typed "FROM "
- pressed enter to create cursor at all locations matching the search
v
theng
thenl
to select the rest of the linespace
+y
to copy to the system clipboard.- paste into a document where I needed to list the tables
- Using a terminal workspace manager (zellij) with helix and a git tui app (gitui) so that I can easily make code changes, commit, push, ,run tests, move to a new repo and more without leaving the keyboard.
There is actually a helix community on programming.dev: helix@programming.dev

How often do you run nixos-rebuild --switch?
If you don't run it regularly then you will likely be waiting for a few different packages to get updates. To fix this you can configure auto upgrades:https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Automatic_system_upgrades

I have definitely found it challenging at times to do even simple things. I think it does get easier over time.
I really hope the new user experience will improve. Once the issues with flakes are fixed and they are no longer experimental I would expect flakes to replace the other ways of doing things. This will hopefully make the documentation more concise/focused/better. It might also mean more people start using nix/flakes which will surface more of these problems to be fixed.
I think people need to decide if the benefits they are getting are worth the challenges. I personally really like the reproducibility and the massive amount of packages available from one place. On other distros I have used things have ended up breaking eventually and I have had to re-install things and search for fixes. But on NixOs things keep working.

Most is described here (the author probably has some amount of bias but this is the only summary I know of): https://github.com/KFearsoff/nix-drama-explained
Other than that some very active contributors resigned as maintainers in support of the open letters.
And it seems now that the community members in support of the open letters/changes have convinced the board of the foundation to agree on some things.

yep, this method didn't work with this method for gitui on my nixos machine either. And a youtube commenter pointed out that LazyGit (inside helix) can't open files to edit. So this method is definitely not perfect but is probably still useful in the right situation

From what I read in the HN thread the token is only used for governance (and possibly also fundraising), it is not baked into the actual platform. I am happy to be corrected though if anyone knows more/has more details.
I agree that Forgejo looks good as well and is likely more usable than Radicle right now. But I do think there is value at looking at P2P solutions.

Its really hard to day without more information. You should talk to a doctor. Some other things that could be causing this that noone else has mentioned yet(I can't tell if this applies for you or not based on your post):
- not enough exercise
- vitamin d/c deficiencies (you can take supplements of vitamin d in winter time)
- bad gut microbiome. Try to eat a variety of vegtables as well as prebiotics (fibre, oats) and probiotics (yogurt, kefir,, sourdough ect).
- try to get regular sleep. I know this is your problem but there may be some things you can do like have a set bedtime, no screens for a while before bed.
Remember that many people have had similar problems and overcome them. You will just need to work out what works for you. Good luck.

This actually sounds really promising!
- They are teaming up with an existing python package manger written in rust.
- These are the people who make/made ruff, probably the most useful and fast python linter.
- you basically get pip from a single binary.
- they plan to have cargo/poetry like functionality in the future.

In this regard, AI-generated code resembles an itinerant contributor, prone to violate the DRY-ness [don't repeat yourself] of the repos visited.
So I guess previously people might first look inside their repo's for examples of code they want to make, if they find and example they might import it instead of copy and pasting.
When using LLM generated code they (and the LLM) won't be checking their repo for existing code so it ends up being a copy pasta soup.

You can install alternative android distros on an android phone that will keep updating long after the manufacturer has stopped. For example lineage OS which supports lots of devices (but not all).
There are also Linux distros targeted to mobile devices.
You just need to pick a device that is supported when buying.
