@troglobit In a 3D engine a single matrix multiplication in wrong order can result easily viewport to be behind the camera :-) IDE really helps to go through such stuff and analysing the results...

@troglobit I've done a bit of graphics programming in the past also professionally, and in that field you need a GUI debugger with stepping - it is super essential asset in order to be productive. The main difference to kernel development is that instead of ugly stack dump in the logs, an error usually means either not seeing anything at all, or alternatively seeing garbage, so you need to carefully step everything from configuring display up to rendering triangles.

I do not consider anyone using IDE an idiot, it all depends on ideas and solutions :-) If some IDE helps you express cool ideas better than e.g. vim, you should probably use that then!

I believe that this was written by AI ;-)

The story goes like that some people use #Vim and #Emacs, and others use #IDE 's, and one should use the tools that help to get the job done.

OK, cool, who cares? I don't. Write your kernel patches with Microsoft Word if that works for you, as far as I'm concerned...

@vbabka @NetworkManager Probably NM support will happen, given that there is already backend to generate netplan yaml: https://ubuntu.com/core/docs/networkmanager/networkmanager-and-netplan. Such backend is just different same (generate .network files instead of yaml).

@vbabka I think James dd a great job to be totally honest :-) I mean it was a big infrastructural change when you add an extra layer to a transmission path and with a single major collapse the overall result is on the positive side. Especially since the fixes landed *before* the release. Zero complains, this is just my part of the job...

@vbabka It went in as I guessed with zero commentary. I had legit standing point and came from Holiday to fix a bug :D Now I head back trying to forget all this noise...

I guess NM would just emit and edit .network files, and call it a day?

I wonder if #NetworkManager will integrate as client of networkd? People like to hate NM but I actually like nmcli.

For instance, if I need to throw a bridge, I simply just:

nmcli connection add type bridge ifname br0 stp no
nmcli connection add type bridge-slave ifname enp63s0 master br0
nmcli connection up bridge-br0

NM is just an interface for whatever shenanigans below so I guess it should be possible to interface it to networkd, right?

Is #GNOME going to move forward with this eventually, or is NM going to be ditched? I don’t actually care how soon such thing might happen, I’m just worried about loosing good old NM ;-)

#systemd

@vbabka And TBH I'm zero worried. I did right things as right as possible given the circumstances. If I don't have to figure out explanations and stories for my actions, I usually do not tend to worry about anything :-)

@vbabka anyway it is updated and I don't think Linus has yet checked my PR thanks to 10h difference between Finland and West Coast ;-) https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/kernel/pgpkeys.git/plain/keys/3AB05486C7752FE1.asc

@vbabka I think I have good alibi for this:

1. Came from holiday the analyze and fix the bug.
2. My OpenPGP expired at the same time.

It's IMHO a race condition ;-)

@vbabka yeah, this is like only small portion. there's bunch of records like depeche mode, KLF, bunch of 80s new wave / synth pop alike stuff, mike oldfield, some really old hard trance ep's, and yeah total unsorted collection of random EP's and LP's. Has been more like diary than a record collection. When I've been somewhere and seen a cool record I've bought is a memory. Some people buy postcards for that purpose, I prefer vinyl ;-)

Only track I listened was this one from the golden age of Bonzai Records: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sHVdb8s_ijk

@duxsco primary key migration is something I've never even looked at. It's essentially a new identity. I e.g. wonder can you migrate the trust from one primary key to another, if I ever need to do that. I guess my RSA-4096 identity will hold for some time tho :-)

@seve_py It happens with any software sometimes but with lower probability with vim than neovim.

Especially if you want to use your text editor on remote machines, neovim can be a bitch... One big reason for returning back to the roots so to speak.
