Obsidian.md: closed source app but it uses an open storage format (markdown) and there's a sprawling ecosystem of open source plugins.

Wow, thanks for mentioning this. I was also under the impression it was e2ee by default but it was actually disabled for me.

Didn't Intel kill AVX512 support on their 12th gen CPUs?

Even if they are out of reach of western intelligence agencies, they are stepping on the Russian government’s toes with unsanctioned attacks on critical infrastructure.

Programmers being bad at naming things isn’t very damning. Add to that this guy made a few 1000 enemies with inside info with his hamfisted management, it would be leaked to the press 5 minutes after he orders it.

Btw this class seems to be for spaces not tweets and a quick search for Ukraine in TweetSafetyLabels in the same package turns up no results, really shoddy writing.

This article is very uninformative. What’s the evidence this “safety label” is being used in an improper way and not for example Russian state propaganda or some of the extremely violent war footage?

I've been dipping my toes into the Nix ecosystem recently, having a dev environment per project with direnv is neat but how does this work with IDEs like VSCode or IntelliJ IDEA? For example, if I define a specific JDK in my project with Nix, will IntelliJ be able to pick this up? Does anyone have any good resources on how to set this up?

BTW, for others who just want to try it out without having to install anything on your system, there are docker containers you can use as a sandbox: docker run -it nixos/nix bash

Basically useless for actual collaboration. Hope it's at least good enough to present my tablet as a whiteboard while sharing my laptop screen in a meeting.

>To maintain sanity, I have very few must-have plugins and the current vaults are all on "Minimal" themes with different color schemes making it easy for me to just toggle my Vaults. I once tried to maintain a common ".obsidian" folder and symlink to it but that was a bad idea - the vaults are better off mostly being unique with shared preferences.

My solution to maintaining seperate vaults for personal/work notes has been to make a sandbox vault where I can test/configure plugins and if I'm happy with the result I run a little script that I can point at a "real" vault that:

* backs up the current config of the target vault incase I screw up

* `rsync`s the sandbox .obsidian and meta folders (containing templater templates etc.) to the target vault

This leaves me free to experiment with plugins without getting in the way of my day-to-day notetaking.

You can host your own game server in UT but you're still depending on Epic services for the server listings and license (CD key) validation.
