My conclusion after researching this a while ago is that the good options are Borg and Restic. Both give you incremental backups with cheap timewise snapshots. They are quite similar to each other, and I don’t know of a compelling reason to pick one over the other.

Always a good one! It seems overdue for an update to include Clojure, Go, Rust, Typescript, Swift, and Zig.

Are you using swayidle? It’s supposed to automatically keep the screen on when there is full-screen video playing. It’s the same in Gnome: you generally don’t need caffeine if a full-screen video is going.

How are you playing videos? Maybe the player doesn’t correctly implement the idle inhibit protocol. Or if you’re using sway bindings to make the window fullscreen instead of using the app’s own fullscreen mode then maybe the player doesn’t know it’s fullscreen, and doesn’t set up the idle inhibit.

If you do want manual idle inhibit control, if you use Waybar it has an idle inhibitor module that mimics caffeine. If you don’t use Waybar there is a little Python script you can run. Kill it when you want to stop inhibiting idle. actually wib looks like a better option

This seems like a restatement of X. We still don’t understand Y. I’m especially confused about:

• Why are SHA-256 and friends ok, but IPFS CIDs are not? They have basically the same functionality.
• Do you need a distributed network, or is a single server ok?

There was some hint that maybe you’re concerned about reproducibility for CIDs? If you fix the block size, hash algorithm, and content codec you’ll get consistent results. SHA-256 also breaks data into chunks of 64 bytes as it happens.

Anyway Wikipedia has a list of content-addressable store implementations. A couple that stand out to me are git and git-annex.

I’ve mainly worked as an employee so I don’t have as much experience with freelance gigs. But nearly every job I’ve had in 18 years has been through networking. Organizing and speaking at programming meetups opened a lot of doors for me. It gets a lot of attention on me while I get a chance to present myself as an expert.

Eventually I’d worked with enough people that when I’ve been looking for work I find I know people who’ve moved to new companies that are hiring.

I’m gonna take a couple of stabs in the dark.

According to this Stack Overflow answer using tee can prevent the prompt from drawing which makes it appear that a script has not terminated. The answerer’s workaround is to put a very short sleep command after the tee command.

If this is what happened to you maybe the reason the script works in bash but not in zsh is because you have different prompts configured in those two shells.

Another idea is to replace tee with sponge from moreutils. The difference is that sponge waits for the end of stdin before it starts writing which can avoid problems in some situations.

Hooray! It’s a sequel, and not a reboot! Legend of Korra was great for being similar but different compared to Last Airbender. If we get something that’s similar but different in a different way that would be lovely.

And there is an upcoming feature film about Aang? Maybe that will take place between the end of Last Airbender and the beginning of Legend of Korra? We saw flashbacks with glimpses of reconciling the four nations after the war, and founding Republic City. It seems like there is plenty more story to tell there.
