jimjam5 wouldn’t mind the name Saint Jim?
I feel you’re biased 😋
Programmer by day, burnt out by night.

It’s wild that the name Diego becomes James in English!
I would’ve thought of Daniel or something but no, JAMES
To add to @ParetoOptimalDev@lemmy.today
The uutils are MIT licensed, simply put it means “do whatever you want with it, as long as you credit us”.
The coreutils are GPL, simply put “do whatever you want with it but only in other GPL works, also credit us”.
The coreutils make sure forks will also be open source.
While the uutils aren’t closed source, they do allow you to make closed source forks.
The uutils’ license is too permissive.
I don’t mind using it for larger teams, it can be great for organised communication such as dev teams!
But it shouldn’t replace documentation.
(Also, Discord itself is a proprietary, censoring telemetry wasp nest, your FOSS dev team shouldn’t be organised in it but Matrix, XMPP, IRC channels or something else open.)
Likely not anytime soon as they tend to hold off latest features and prefer older (but maintained) LTS versions of just about everything. Also especially not if it turns out to be a bad idea; they explicitly build Mint without Snaps since their inclusion in the Ubuntu base.
Mainly memory safety; split
(which is also used for other programs like sort
) had a memory heap overflow issue last year to name one.
The GNU Coreutils are well tested and very well written, the entire suite of programs has a CVE only once every few years from what I can see, but they do exist and most of those would be solved with a memory and type safe language.
That said, Rust also handles parallelism and concurrency much better than C ever could, though most of these programs don’t really benefit from that or not much since they already handled this quite well, especially for C programs.
uutils/Linux?
What is this table from? Is it from some website?
Yeah, but it shouldn’t replace forums.
Isn’t that just a bandwidth issue?
This is the way.
Sure, ok, that’s still my daily driver, it’s incredibly stable (and no, it’s not fucking outdated), but other than that it doesn’t help so much against accidentally borking your system.
So in this context, I’m recommending @sockpuppetsociety@lemm.ee NixOS.
May I introduce you to my lord and saviour NixOS?
And not somehow break it more from there? Impressive!
I can see how you were confused, but maybe don’t phrase it like that next time lol.
That’s true, I’ll keep it in mind! I thought I was being funny but I was just confusing and crude
Wait it is? The last sentence looks jumbled to me… I could use “English isn’t my first language” as a defence but I get the feeling I’m just slow or something
I’ve found it needed a lot of extra steps, plus fidgeting with the OSTree defeats some of the safety/stability of it all.
Bazzite, at least, recommends against using OSTree blindly as that’s meant for sysconfig and recommends using Homebrew instead, as this lives in your user space and touches very little; but even installing libqalculate
gives memory issues. Most things I attempted to install did, actually.
The Ruby interpreter installed just fine, and was the only CLI program that installed just fine IIRC.
Now, I feel like it’s less of a hassle to Just Use Mint®, especially since I’ve got it installed anyway.
Do you smell burnt toast?
Funny you say that, I dual boot Bazzite and Mint, for gaming and everything else including programming, respectively.
Bazzite is a pain to install and use CLI applications in, but it’s got a great default setup for gaming!
It also seems like English changing the letter J from a /j/ sound to a /dzj/ sound didn’t help, going by how “Iacobus” became Jacob somewhere down that line.
