@inaction_figure TBH, I'd prefer editor that would be like vim and did not have plugin support. Then these types of issues could be argued and decided in the upstream.

The single biggest issue in modern software is plugins and making everything a development environment.

ALE (Asynchronous Lint Engine) is a plugin providing linting (syntax checking and semantic errors) in NeoVim 0.6.0+ and Vim 8.0+ while you edit your text files, and acts as a Vim Language Server Protocol client.

@liw @ilmari @liiwi I really hope that at least as an option fallible allocations would receive an enforcing clippy flag. For instance, I think that the whole https://github.com/rust-vmm stack might benefit from optional global semantics change. And being an optional clippy flag, it would no get in the way of the wasm payloads run in the web browser. I guess these are the 180 degrees contradicting goals in the whole Rust ecosystem where we just need to find over time the best possible balance 🙂

This is pure evil. Zero human dignity involved. Not much else to add on this.

@mboelen Looks nice and clean! But I knowingly ignore the details *right now* because I'm heading of to four week holiday ;-) [bookmarked the update for August]

Except next I have to flush my LKML queue and send v6.11 PR(s) but, oh well...

Daniel Bristot de Oliveira passed away a few days ago at far too young an age. Some of his associates have just asked us to publish their memories of him:

What an incredible loss.

I started my systemd journey about 2-3 weeks ago when I took first steps moving my home office kernel CI from busybox to systemd + UKI. I was lagging at least two years in its features. Before that I've been sysvinit level user, i.e. just enabling services and reading the logs 🤷

My fav feature so far: systemd-run0. It's excellent debugging tool for testing PolKit and other access control layers in Linux (in my daily use I still tend to sudo).

I put my old Unprivileged #Nix notes to Medium so that I won’t loose them by mistake: https://medium.com/@jarkko.sakkinen/unprivileged-nix-2c9f06b99f8e

I.e. how to get a fresh and most recent userland to any remote Linux system that you have SSH access to when exactly two contraints are met:

  1. User NS is ON.
  2. PID NS is ON.

Or to put in other words: Nix Home Manager without NixOS recipe…

X aka "never ever touch this crate" tag ;-) That is how I literally interpret it.

@pid_eins OK, fair enough, thanks for the responses! I asked the last question mainly because I was not entirely sure how far is the reach of bootctl. Now I know.

@rjzak Ghidra is something that I use sometimes just get ideas but this more when I already have "a target of interest". I.e. I know what data etc. I'm looking for :-)

Both are used for disassembly but still pretty different type of instruments.

Depite reverse engineering of malware and kernel engineering have commonalities in tools, they're still different type of Sudoku's... Malware has more "easter eggs" so to speak ;-) And requires factors more dynamic analysis and simulation.

@rjzak it's a good one but I think that completely different angle too. it's an "exploration tool" this is a "debugging tool"...

@pid_eins Last week I ramped up my home office kernel QA to use UKI so I guess it was great timing then :-)

Is there LXR for systemd?
