I think single account ActivityPub implementations are addressing a weakness of the Fediverse: one's identity (handle, username) is tied to an instance they have no control over. If that instance shuts down users lose everything. With a single account instance, you take that control back. And since it doesn't need to scale the architecture can be much simpler and can be deployed to much cheaper infrastructure.
The demo was not straightforward, though. And I didn't quite get how a user can follow Mastodon users, for example.
Possibly. My point is: despite having a common subset Pkl and JSON schema doesn't seem to be solving the same problems. But, I'm just learning about it, so I may just be wrong.
I just learned about Pkl, so take this with a grain of salt. JSON Schema and Pkl seem to have some overlap. But JSON schema is not specifically designed for handling configuration and Pkl supports other formats like YAML.
This looks really interesting. Getting type safety and editor support to configuration may change quite a bit of how things are done. I don't know if it will gain traction, but if it does, it may really help bringing some long awaited structure to all those YAML files. There appears to be examples specifically for Kubernetes (https://github.com/apple/pkl-k8s-examples).
I wasn't aware of that. I guess it was thought to be a mod driven community. Anyway... Cool question. I hope we will see some creative solutions here.
The longest I worked for a company is around 6-7 years.
As long as you get the opportunities to develop your skills in the areas you want (so that they are still relevant in the job market) and there is a good team around you, it doesn't make sense to change jobs just to change jobs. It's generally difficult to get a meaningful salary increase without a job change and that's the main reason most people are looking for new jobs, I think.
The first time I saw that prompt, I thought the same. "I don't want to cancel the install, I want to install it." You get used to it, but I don't think this is a very good UX.
I would be interested in this, but I’m on this side of the pond. So good luck! Would be good if you made the recordings available afterwards.
