Sorry, I'm European myself, so it's not in the same situation and I have no experience with it. Most of my non-EU colleagues got here through student visas, then got a job, and just stayed. Others started out in large companies abroad and relocated with those companies. The only US American I know here was relocated by their company.
A quick search found https://relocate.me/ Maybe they can help you?
Good luck!
Is this the US talking? I still have recruiters contacting me, not as often as before but still getting messages on LinkedIn (European here).
The market here seems to be buzzing if you are willing to move. There are pages and pages of devops, sysadmin, software developer, software architect,... . On one website j searched "sysadmin" and it found 10k jobs across Europe! They also seemed up to date when I was checking them out.
Most well paying jobs are in West and North Europe, they also have quite interesting jobs, even in opensource companies. Italy and Greece can't seem to be desperate for people, but their wages are trash. They don't seem to be doing much interesting stuff either. Just run of the mill stuff.
But yeah, Europe looks busy busy busy at the moment and very acceptable for people willing to move.
You did not watch the video, I see. Because if you had, you'd know what they are trying to accomplish. He says it 3 minutes into the video. Probably shorter than it took you to type out that uninformed comment.
That framework laptop tho 💦💦💦
Edit: the comments on here really show that 1) people just read headlines and 2) many people cannot think for themselves and will just quote or regurgitate from whichever text they were indoctrinated without second thought. The "but it's not free as in freedom" and "it's not opensource because it's not OSI" comments show up on every single post about this topic. It's like people referring to the bible and screaming "blasphemy" when someone says something that doesn't fit. Or like people losing their minds because a non-white actor is "not canon".
I wish people had to answer multiple choice questions before being allowed to comment. Maybe it would make them actually think instead of just spew their religious bile all over the comment section.
Is there are good alternative to IPFS?
A distributed, content-addressed filesystem across the internet, not just in a home LAN, than can be mounted (fuse or whatever else), doesn't require storing data twice, has a reasonable API and acceptable documentation.
Does something like that exist?
We should all aspire to be like that legend.
I've been thinking about using business source license for my projects. Fuck MAGAF and other companies for taking advantage of opensource devs, making billions and not wanting to contribute back or even support the dev.
Once the Post-Open license is finalised, there's a good chance it'll become my default instead of AGPL or BSL.
How does one get a job like this? This is great! I want to get a job in a school or university and infect it with linux. "Guys, look! It's cheaper and we can set it up then pay for support which still makes it cheaper and students can learn how to use it on their computers too, since it's freely available to them!"
Python is case insensitive? Or do mean that it's not? The phrasing is a little confusing.
With the current conservative government Germany has, the same that fucked up the country for 15 years kept the country "stable" for 15 years, it sounds like their promise for river internet. What's German river penetration like nowadays? 5%? After 20 years of "investment"?
Lol. It's more likely that the US will get a grip and Microsoft or even Apple can swoop in an sell their crap to politicians.
So it's absolutely not happening within 20 years 🤣
Jetbrains seems to want to lose customers. But besides VSCode, which other proper IDEs exist. Eclipse is a joke, Netbeans is basically dead, VSCodium and other forks are Electron beasts,... There are a bunch of editors out there cosplaying as IDEs, but let's be honest, they are nowhere near as good as proper IDEs, nor as easy to use.
nvim users spend decades and have terrabytes of plugins, helix has no plugin system, emacs is hand cancer, and Kate is a great editor, but no IDE. It feels like the Chrome and Firefox situation, unfortunately.
I know someone will say Zed, but isn't that Mac first? Linux users probably come last, so also not a great option.
Do you know how to use breakpoints? Put one on "Just right!" and then step through it.
Edit: I just ran the code and it exits properly. It's probably your customized VS Code . Which command is it using to run your code?
On one side, fuck google, on the other, the video is "whistleblowing" DEI practices. Not sure what there is to "whistlenlow" about. I thought quotas were mandated for a long time through affirmative action. How is that news?
What is this? It jumps in explaining features and details about other stuff, but doesn't explain the basic goal. There are also no screenshots except of some table. It's not clear how to use this thing.
How is this community different from ProgrammerHumour?
Both seem to post similar memes and jokes. This community doesn't have a sidebar text to clarify what the community is nor when to post what stuff where, and it's not clear why the community exists.
Not surprised in the least. Getting millions from Google, using Microsoft infrastructure, next it'll probably be revealed that they are exclusively working on Macs and running Linux in a VM for testing.
Understandable. It's a pity Google is so embedded in our systems. You can still get a fairphone though. It also comes with regular android. I've read in multiple places not to get the official fairphone case. You might have to check why that is.
The good thing about the fairphone is that it has the highest reparability raring of any current phone out there. You can swap put the screen, battery, and other components very easily when things go haywire.
And of course it's one of the very few companies on this world that tries to give a shit about slavery in the supply chain.
I know somebody's going to day "get a pixel and put grapheneOS, it's the most secure phone in the planet". I don't know if the Swedish apps dependent on google services will work, but if you do decide to go google hardware, you can try and get it secondhand.
Fairphone with eOS if you want to get away from Google even more. No google services but access to f-droid and the play store with anonymous accounts.
Or, get a second-hand phone and flash it with eOS or lineage OS.
So there are more than 9000 apps that take screenshots because somehow that's in the permissions list that neither Apple nor Google check when they claim to provide security - especially Apple when they claim that locking you in is better for you.
There are news reports of people getting add before babies were born simply because of what people were buying. Sometimes the people didn't know they were pregnant themselves! That's how embedded they are in our lives and people go "well, nothing to hide, right?" and don't even flinch. Imagine being sent to jail because an SD agency detected you were pregnant but aborted it and you live in an antiabortion state.
"Nothing to hide"
Or, put target in RAM with cargo-ramdisk. Just don't get yourself an overpriced Mac and pay for extra RAM instead. Save your SSD, stop worrying about rust clutter at the same time, and give a company money that won't lock you in and give your money to Trump. Win win win.

Any suggestions for a self-hosted CI that can also be run locally?
I left Github a while ago and have been relying on simple pre-push scripts in my workflow, but would like to be able to test PRs from others without putting my machine at risk. Besides codeberg and radicle (neither of which have reliable CI), I also have a build machine, where I could run CI jobs, however it is important that the CI jobs can also run locally so that external people do not require access to the build machine.
Is there a CI that can do those things (run locally and remotely)?
Is serverside anti-cheat too difficult?
Why do so many games rely on client-side anti cheat and stuff like kernel level anti-cheat?

Is there a way to stop windows from grabbing attention in plasma6?
I configured steam to open on a separate desktop using window rules, but it also grabs the attention and plasma will automatically switch to the desktop it opened to. Is there a way to stop that from happening?
Steam opens 3 windows, so switching to another desktop will be reverted 3 times.
Can anybody explain why CUDA and Rocm are necessary and why OpenCL isn't the solution?
I've read multiple times that CUDA dominates, mostly because NVIDIA dominates. Rocm is the AMD equivalent, but OpenCL also exists. From my understanding, these are technologies used to program graphics cards - always thought that shaders were used for that.
There is a huge gap in my knowledge and understanding about this, so I'd appreciate somebody laying this out for me. I could ask an LLM and be misguided, but I'd rather not 🤣

NLnet is funding Blitz - a modular web renderer
Blitz is a new independent web engine implemented in Rust. It’s flexible low-level APIs make it suitable for a wide variety of use cases web browsers, an application runtimes, ebook rendering, email rendering, rendering HTML to image, etc. And its uniquely modular architecture allows it to share much of its code with other projects which it is hoped will lead to a more sustainable development model.
This project aims to bring Blitz “up to scratch” for the use-case of being an HTML/CSS browser (JavaScript support is not in scope). Use cases that are being targeted include: browsing wikipedia, viewing news websites, and searching using a search engine. The work to be completed includes improvements to the layout engine, implementation of form controls, adding WPT testing infrastructure, and the creation of an initial browser UI.
What happened to networks like eMule, WinMX, DC++, and so on?
Is retroshare the new iteration of this?
Could "pay or it's low priority" be a way to fund opensource projects?
It happens all the time, a maintainer quits/abandons some opensource project due to economic realities. There are comics, jokes, threads, and so on about what the realities of maintaining opensource software are and that most people are not willing to donate or contribute in any way besides opening issues.
There is a lot of resistance to stuff like the business source license, but people do have to earn a living somehow. Doing so with opensource would be amazing. In lieu of the contested licence, could a template similar to Reminna's actually work? Basically "pay to get this fixed/implemented, make a PR, or it's low priority/ 'I will get to it when I get to it'".

Rust is the New C
In terms of its usability, not its deficits.
I miss Django (and its ORM + documentation)
It's been a while since picking up rust, but until now, most of what I've written has been CLI tools, proc macro libs, and async networking stuff. Web/application servers have been kept at arm's length while waiting for something to come around like Django.
For those not in the know, Django is a web framework written in Python. It's opinionated, extensive, has many features, and has stellar documentation. It's old too and had major problems taking advantage of (back them) python's new async capabilities as well as "new" technologies like WebSockets. Popular frameworks popped up in the meantime like Flask and FastAPI that do use new technologies and python language features like type hints, however nothing has really come to be quite like Django.
Django's ORM
As usual, there are camps when it comes to this, but I'm in the "keep SQL away from me" or "one language for all" camp. Django's ORM does a mighty fine job of doing so. It's possible to write a django application without eve
How can we contribute to Lemmy code from outside github?
I don't have a Github account after deleting it some time after it was ought by Microsoft. Given the rise of anti-US sentiment and calls to stop using their products, more people leaving Github might be a real occurrence. How can I and others who have left, are leaving, and will leave Github, be able to contribute?

A custom version of Firefox, focused on privacy, security and freedom.
We don't want to deal with the administration required to properly handle donations. If we don't need funding, we won't risk becoming dependent on it. And also: no donations means no expectations. This means that people working on LibreWolf are free to move on to other projects whenever they want.
