As a developer I've been through 10 different languages and about the same number of operating systems, and I barely managed to remember any of them, even at the time. And I assume soon using natural language as the main interface will become commonplace, which will finally let me off the hook.

I will give this a go, but I doubt any of it will stick!

Shell quotes is the last frontier LLM's seem to keep getting wrong. Esp when it's Github CI yaml which needs to ssh somewhere and run command running another command there. Needs AGI apparrently.

Alternatively, Flutter desktop with flutter_rust_bridge works great. Sure, not fully Rust, but Flutter has way more packages on the GUI side than, I'd say, all of the Rust GUIs combined, simply due to how much older it is.

I'd rather use Tauri with any web front-end like React (which we do in my company)

The COSMIC DE (by System76, default in Pop_OS distro) is written using their iced fork, which hopefully will be upstreamed eventually.

Some people mistrust the intention from Framework because Omarchy is made by a racist?

Framework is a not a huge organisation. This sponsorship consists of a few laptops and committing to a $250 monthly donation. There’s no contradiction here. CachyOS is also not a huge project.

Thanks, it makes at least some sense then. I'd expect them to sponsor Omarchy similarly then, in my twittersphere that made way more noise lately

How is project like Framework Laptop able to sponsor anyone? Are they profitable? Had an impression they're more of a startup stage project far from profitability.

k_bx commented on Proxmox Datacenter Manager 1.0 available proxmox.com/en/about/comp... · Posted by u/speckx

unethical_ban · 10 days ago

I love Proxmox as a virtual server manager - I can't imagine running anything else as a base for a homelab. Free, powerful, VMs or CTs operating quickly, graphical shell for administration, well documented and used, ZFS is a first class citizen.

I've kind of wanted to build a three node cluster with some low end stuff to expand my knowledge of it. Now they have a datacenter controller. I'd need to build twice the nodes.

Question: Does anyone know large businesses that utilize proxmox for datacenter operations?

k_bx · 10 days ago

We run proxmox on a bunch of hardware servers, but for "homelab" we use Ubuntu on ZFS + Incus cluster. What I look at is IncusOS: a radically new approach to base cluster OS: no SSH, no configuration. So far it looks too radical, but eventually I see that as the only way to go for somebody who has a "zoo" of servers behind Tailscale: just base OS which upgrades safely, immutable and encrypted, without any unique configuration. The vision looks beautiful.

> roughly 200 GPUs. This sounds like a lot, but lets keep some perspective: OpenAI's upcoming Norway datacenter is intending to house 100,000 GPUs, probably each more power hungry than the H200

So.. 500 reusable rocket travels in space to match an on-ground datacenter? If this is the central argument then it doesn't hold.

Don't get me wrong. I too think whole idea is so outlandish it's likely to never happen, but mostly because the complexity of the whole project is too high.
