when a senator is openly doubtful tax payers won't pay for the bailouts...


oh I've been down the "I can just fix macOS" road. The sooner you move away the better. so much time wasted on plugins like these.

you effort will just be null the second apple change the usability apis enabling hammerspoon, like they did countless times before. I don't even rename the name of the fallen apps before it.

instead now I contribute things as long lived proper features on KDE and hopefully advance humanity instead of apple profits.


I find it fun, I'm not worried. If the work gets nuked in the future, so be it.


I am down as soon as we can use the full M machines with Asahi Linux


m machines are a meme.


you should have just went to a private elite school instead of working hard your while life too. /s


Hahahah!


Just curious what's so funny?


Yellen announces "no bailout" and a few hours later, there is a bailout.


From my understanding this is not a bailout. Equity is wiped out?


A private party's debts are getting paid with public funds. That is a bailout.


Privatized profits socialized losses strikes again.

You don't think that the banks aren't going to be passing along the burden of the FDIC special assessment to customers, do you? That's not at all how finance tends to work.


My god, the comments on these SVB articles keep getting worse. I'd delete 95% of the comments I see, including yours.


love elixir. hate Mix.

it's like using Maven or npm all over again. but even worse because it generates a lot of code.

it creates disposable projects by design. No way to keep track of what to change when mix create outputs something different next year.

and now things like https://github.com/wojtekmach/mix_install_examples/blob/main... where is ecto even installed? download from where? so annoying this trend.


> where is ecto even installed?

For Mix.install you can optionally specify the cache directory. For regular projects they are in the deps folder.

> The ___location of the cache directory can be controlled using the MIX_INSTALL_DIR environment variable.

https://hexdocs.pm/mix/1.14/Mix.html#install/2

> download from where?

https://hex.pm/packages/ecto

Or you can specify a git commit, or a path if you want to alter it locally.

> No way to keep track of what to change when mix create outputs something different next year.

`mix.lock` keeps track of your resolved dependencies and should be checked in along with your code. Mix/Hex can also be provided the exact `==` versions rather than the `~>` or other Version specifiers

"project folder" which is oh so in line of single file utility scripts which you will run from all over the place.

will you have one dep dir on each place you run the script at?


You are complaining because it downloads the dependencies of the libraries you declare?

That's how any modern package manager works (I'm thinking cargo as well). I'm not sure why not doing that would be preferable.


yeah. exactly because it download depencies. I want my distro owner to decide that.

most languages dont havea built in package manager.


What did you feel you needed to change on your project because the default template had changed? If the code works, then it keeps working.

I've run into this with the Phoenix generators a bit because you need to make changes to your project if you want to update to newer versions of the Phoenix libraries, but they produce documentation about what you need to change.


do you read every release note to see what security improvements were added to phoenix template? yeah, nobody does.


See, I feel it's a way to have some 'frameworky' elements in my projects that are wonderfully standardized. the changes that do occur usually are worth it.

If anything I sometimes find myself annoyed that Ecto is not there by default, because it's part of almost all my projects, and often even a one-file script might benefit from bits of it.


almost as if you wanted ecto packaged system wide, like, say a distro maintained package? ;)
