HOLY CRAP

Let’s say I run a command that spews output. Are you saying that with Zsh I can use only the keyboard to navigate the spew, copy a bit of it, and paste it in a new command?

If so I should try it out!

I moved from Debian unstable to NixOS this past Saturday. It’s been…interesting. I’m fighting the urge to run screaming back to Debian.

I tried purging Git from my system last night as an experiment. Try as I might I couldn’t get all references to it to disappear from the Nix store. I disabled it from configuration.nix and Home Manager. Removed all system and Home Manager generations except the current. Still there after various combinations of nix-channel --update, nixos-rebuild switch, and home-manager switch.

I write my code for future maintainers. I optimize for clarity, testability, and readability.

I’ve become a huge fan of dependency injection. That does not mean I like DI frameworks (Guice). I tend to do it manually with regular code.

When I maintain code and I sit there wondering what it actually does, I write a unit test for it right then and there

And so on

I’m a Linux–Android user and Apple Music is the closest I’ve found to Google Play Music’s library management (the best there ever was). So it’s what I use.

And I still don’t know about the quality of its trackpad or speakers.

I have a Framework 13 and I’m pretty thrilled with it. I’m happy with the trackpad and the speakers. It wouldn’t surprise me if a modern MacBook’s are better but I’m satisfied just the same.

I would take a paycut to work remotely

I get the first reminder at 15 minutes IIRC. Does Digital Wellbeing have the permissions it needs?

As a pedestrian I trust waymos more than human drivers

Wow, that’s impressive

That’s easy, it’s Debian

And beer

When l was on it I saw no point in running it outside a browser tab

Honestly, why? The ecosystem is rich and developed. Libraries for everything. Great documentation. Fantastic tooling. What am I missing out on?

I love Java and it remains my programming language of choice

• Cars divide everything with highways, busy roads, and slow traffic.

I’m glad you pointed this out. I realized how isolating cars are after moving to a walkable neighborhood. I’m convinced walkable neighborhoods foster community.

I am, not great at parenting, I’ve made hella mistakes. I’ve only one son and do my best.

It sounds like you are

It’s the standard. It’s what clocks are “supposed” to be set at. DST forces everyone to pretend it’s another time. Let people take advantage of summer daylight how they see fit rather than forcing them to.

I’m a proud atheist. And I get where she is coming from. Community is lacking and that’s sad.

Here is the official upgrade documentation

TL;DR

1. Back up anything important
2. Change bookworm to trixie, bookworm-security to trixie-security, and bookworm-updates to trixie-updates in your sources.list
3. sudo apt update
4. sudo apt full-upgrade

Pay attention to your full-upgrade. Good luck.

Can you post the contents of your /etc/apt/sources.list file? Presumably it’s as simple as changing all the bookworm references to trixie.
