Why not pcre which has more features, better performance and is battle tested, compared to that minimal new matcher without any proper locale info? They must really love those experiments.
I don't know of any good backbone service or library with 5K+ stars, only npm or python hyped bozos. There is certainly not any competence in github stars. Aren't any GNU libs maintained on GitHub? No, they are mostly not. Just very few.
Yeah well it's like money these days; having a $10 million net worth doesn't actually say much about a person; maybe it fell on their lap because they knew the right people or maybe they had to struggle to earn every cent. It's the same with GitHub stars.
Unfortunately, those who had it easy tend to get much more attention and are much more visible; attention is how they got there in the first place so of course there is not much merit behind their work. A lot of software tooling is a Potemkin village. It's over-hyped and developers/users are forced into it by their boss who happens to be an investor in the project founder's company.
It often seems like nobody from Millennial or Gen Z generations built any good popular software tool or library... It's like nothing innovative came out since the time of Linux, GNU and GIT... No competent software developers since John Carmack? It's not true of course, it's just that we are a heavily suppressed and manipulated generation. Firstly, we are demoralized, so there are less of us actually putting in the effort to build quality stuff, but even those who do, our work is often marginalized and covered up by algorithms. Often nipped in the bud.
We have to consider that Linus Torvalds didn't build Linux all by himself. Had the community not come together and made all these distros, today, nobody would even know what Linux is and Linus Torvalds would be a failed developer living in the shadow of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs.
I gave lots of prolog rules to analyze log files of a complicated distributed system with 20 realtime components to find problems and root causes. Worked really well. In 2008 or so
Cannot believe that LLM are that useful.
When ever a component changes or adds a log line, you edit one rule. With an LLM you need weeks of new logs and then weeks to retrain. And a high budget for the H100`s
That’s not the state of LLMs today, nobody trains them for a specific use case, almost nobody fine tunes them either. You just have to give them some context and the means to gather more context (access to code in order to see the logs at source, access to logs themselves, etc.) - whatever you would have access to as a human debugging this.
GNOME OS uses BuildStream and as a result has no concept of packages at all and no relationship to any distro, KDE Linux is based on Arch. There is no relationship between the two. GNOME OS used to be OSTree based but switched to systemd-sysupdate a while ago.
CoreOS is in a weird space. It's been desperately playing catch up with it's sibling products for the last few years, but it also is where a lot of the Fedora/RHEL developers in this space are focused primarily.
Nonsense. You just need to make building the gtk2 unit optional, so that the distros can still build it. Almost no one needs gtk2, just Lazarus. Usually debian maintainers are happy to patch the build system to do that. They got a bad one.
The harder part is to upgrade Lazarus to qt6. Until that happens, Lazarus needs to be shipped as snap, flatpack or appimage with the gtk2 so's.
Exactly. "Let me explain how some else needs to do this thing, and how easy it is, and how that someone else needs to get right on that for my convenience". Because you're here to condescend, not to actually do anything.
Nonsense. He dislikes better security reports because they are verbose? I got many LLM generated security reports lately, and they were just better. Way better. Detailing every step. The better the report, the less time the maintainer needs to verify and fix it.
He is probably a cranky racist who dislikes LLM's. And celebrity-style security blog posts.
