I don’t use NixOS for my home server mainly because of lack of MAC (SELinux or AppArmor). I use Ansible to configure AlmaLinux from package installation to firewall to systemd services.

I use NixOS for desktop and development machines.

Ansible and Nix. Code is the document.

I am a developer. While AI is being marketed as snake oil, the things they can do is astonishing. One example is it reviews code a lot better than human beings. It’s not just finding obvious errors but it catches logical error that no human would have caught.

I see people are just forming two groups. Those who thinks AI will solve everything and those who thinks AI is useless. Neither of them are right.

The number of times WhatsApp crashes in GrapheneOS is so high. GrapheneOS exposes all memory corruption bugs due to it’s hardened memory allocator and memory tagging features.

No wonder WhatsApp is exploited just like that. I sometimes think if these bugs were built purposefully.
