I did try it, but hyprland is still the most usable/pretty ratio for me, I also use Vicinae launcher (I wish that name is changed it’s hard to remember) so not sure how that will work with niri.
I'm using vicinae on Niri, no issues at all

Niri is currently being "hugged to death", if you want to contribute: Donate to Ivan or review others PRs before making your own, the project has no commercial backing and he's "overloaded" by the projects recent success.
I've been using it for years now and it's obvious that Smithay and Niri are high-quality projects, I haven't had any issues other than missing features (more of which has become available over time).
I second this, if you are daily niri user, show your appreciation, I already did! Here's my personal setup, hope it inspires someone to try it https://github.com/knoopx/nix
If AI is that good, can someone code a good XML library with AI? The spec is available.
If AI is that good, there should be an explosion of Open Source projects of good quality.
Neither of those is happening.
bullshit, open source is blooming as never before. also we already have good xml libraries, nobody is interested in that. but yeah i agree with the sentiment that ai is not the magical tool you were promised, useful nevertheless.

I'm not sure about why they are upset with the issue of upstreaming the changes into the kernal.
They want to upstream drivers for a device that the creator of clearly has no interest in allowing others to use outside of their walled garden. The knowledge around it is from a massive , albeit impressive, RE effort.
Who is going to support it? Where is the demand for it? It would be different if Apple were to provide patches and drivers for their own hardware, at least then you know there is a vested interest in supporting the hardware from the people who know it better than anyone else and have the means to continue supporting it.
I applaud Hector and everyone else that contributes to Asahi, its genuinely a cool project and the progress they have made is insanely impressive given the lack of any official documentation about the hardware they are working on, but its one of these things that will remain in the realm of a cool curiosity much like running Linux on a games console.
linux on game consoles might be a small part of the market, but it's a reality. there's a fair amount of manufacturers, devices and people buying them.

what a coincidence, my eval times have worsened over the past months too!
The people writing market commentary are simply making it up. The news about DeepSeek is not new and doesn't reduce the value of ASML. People are selling now because they are scared because the number went down.
this, absolutely irrelevant to deepseek

Nix handles containerization better than Docker does.
Here is a flake that builds a Go app and a Docker image for it (based on headless Chrome): https://github.com/aksiksi/ncdmv/blob/aa108a1c1e2c14a13dfbc0...
And here is how the image is built in CI: https://github.com/aksiksi/ncdmv/blob/aa108a1c1e2c14a13dfbc0...
here is a derivation that fetches https://www.usememos.com/ from source, changes the color palette, builds a docker image out of it and spins up a container that traefik exposes automatically: https://gist.github.com/knoopx/afde5e01389e3b8446f469c056e59...
lol, I hope Mr. Altman finds my 10 year old posts relevant
