paint.net is amazing for basic png editing, I've dreamed of this day. It'a the only thing I miss from Windows. I don't understand the slashback at all.

defer isn't bullet proof either. I think there's a linter about it and os.Exit.

One can just wrap os.Exit in a helper to get the expected behaviour.

clap's derive is so nice

Really happy to see 0.16 come out.

I did a really tiny contribution about zig cc supporting -exported_symbols_list, which together with the hack of filtering out -liconv makes for a very viable linux -> macOS Rust cross-compiler. There's a few caveats but those have been manageable so far.

Absolutely in awe of Zig as a project.

I would second their experience, works well for me

What pains are you experiencing? Cdk has far exceeded Ansible and Terraform in my experience.

Github being less and less reliable nowadays just makes this more true.

In the past week I have seen:

- actions/checkout inexplicably failing, sometimes succeeding on 3rd retry (of the built-in retry logic)

- release ci jobs scheduling _twice_, causing failures, because ofc the release already exists

- jobs just not scheduling. Sometimes for 40m.

I have been using it actively for a few years and putting aside everything the author is saying, just the base reliability is going downhill.

I guess zig was right. Too bad they missed builtkite, Codeberg hasn't been that reliable or fast in my experience.

I think cdk is the one to use nowadays. Infrastructure as real code.

I've Fairphone 6 with e/OS. Works well. Ok, some caveats:

- mobilepay does not work (I think Danes have an issue with non-mainstream platforms for whatever reason)

- the default browser does not work for some of the authentication flows when it integrates as the in-app browser. But it does give one dark theme on hn so I can just keep it on my homescreen while fireflx is the default for compat reasons.
