Agreed, EdgeDB[0] looks to be trying to solve a lot of SQL's perceived flaws with EdgeQL[1]. It's not the first attempt and I suspect it won't be the last but composability is explicitly one of the challenges it addresses.

For a visual tool I'd recommend giving IcePanel [0] a try.

For the diagrams as code solution, happily it looks like mermaid will soon support C4 [1] so their should be native support in lots of places soon (github, gitlab and lots more have built in support for mermaid)

For Run some or the the reasons I have it installed everywhere are:

> What does PowerToys Run do that the standard WIN+R run dialog doesn't?

-- Autocomplete

-- Search files, settings, services, the registy and more (all of these can be enabled, disabled or assigned to a shortcut e.g. settings is $ for me)

-- Open windows terminal with specific shell

-- Walk open windows, allow you to search currently open applications and browsers

> Or just hitting the WIN key to get the search dialog?

-- Not constantly try and open Bing and/or Edge


Here is the very first sentence from https://dotnet.microsoft.com:

"Free. Cross-platform. Open source. A developer platform for building all your apps."

The download page for .NET which includes downloads for Windows, MacOS and Linux is https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download

What the GP meant is exactly what they said, "C# and .net 6 are not windows-centric.", sadly it shares a name with .Net Framework which was windows centric.


Is anyone providing unofficial builds of Fuchsia? I can see from the article the requirement is to build it yourself but I'm lazy/time poor and I'd really like to try runnning Fuchsia in an emulator.


This is a great tool and I'd happily pay for the addon features but a subscription pricing model really doesn't work for me. If the developer's reading please have a buy option so I can give you some money :)


The app can be installed for free as a standalone app through the installer listed on GitHub.


I know, it's always free to install but to unlock the addon features (e.g. keyboard shortcuts) requires a subscription.


Oh jeez, I didn’t realize. I didn’t run into the limitations… yet!


In case you didn't know Office365 family only works with GoDaddy domains, they used to support other registrars but have dropped that support which is why I'm looking for an alternative.


If you look around on reddit there are ways to use any ___domain registrar. Just needs some txt records.


Hmm, I found a sort of workaround involving a temporary transfer to godaddy to get the records and then back to your preferred registrar. Any chance you know more about that?


It took me a week to go from requesting access to receiving access for my ___domain when I signed up earlier this month. I was already using cloudflare for my dns so maybe that sped things up?


It's worth pointing out that if you're in the UK, for reasons that I'm sure make sense to someone, magic mushrooms are very illegal. Courtesy of the Basement Project [1]:

* The 2005 Drugs Act amended the Misuse of Drugs Act 1971 to clarify that both fresh and prepared (e.g. dried or stewed) magic mushrooms that contain psilocin or psilocybin (such as the ‘liberty cap’) are Class A drugs. This means it’s illegal to have this type of ‘magic mushrooms’ for yourself, to give away or to sell

* Possession is illegal and can get you up to seven years in jail and/or an unlimited fine.

* Supplying someone else, even your friends, can get you up to life imprisonment and/or an unlimited fine.

I'd be curious to read some reliable statistics on how many people in the UK (and the US) actually get arrested for picking wild psilocybin mushrooms.


I suspect the answer is because of compatibility. Chromium has become the industry standard, everyone tests only on Chrome (and Safari for mobile) so you can expect fewer issues if you're based on chromium.


But I think it's a valid question. Because for a niche browser (which most of these alternate projects are), mainstream compatibility for all websites doesn't seem like it would be the most important thing. I think the idea of using Gecko[0] is a solid one. :P ;) xx

I agree it's a valid question and it seems my suspicion is not the main reason. Based on the other replies to the parent it seems that choosing Gecko requires more work.
