Hello! Looks like reproducible builds are like videos on video hosting. You may share your screencast or videos, the others can see your screen exactly. But there are limitations: you need to have an account on exactly one video hosting. There were challenges in Ludovic Courtès article. Releases

Pierre! Ah! That's okay. Thanks for trying. I just found out Zotero in Flatpak (https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.zotero.Zotero). Regards, RG. March 30, 2019 12:45 PM, "Pierre Neidhardt" wrote: > Hi Raghav, > > I'm very sorry, I looked a little too fast (did I look at the wrong > program?

This is a nice initiative. >From reading the post I found it unclear what this Software Heritage group is and what it's relation to Guix is. Would it make sense for the "Software Heritage" to be decentralized through free peer to peer software similar to what is discussed here: https://lists.

Raghav given Pierre's assessment I just wanted to suggest some potential Zotero alternatives. They would require using a document compiler like latex, groff or pandoc. I do not know if the following have the feature set that you are looking for. I have not used these myself but they would be w

# Appreciation I appreciate: * many of Guix's design decisions. The one that is relevant to this discussion is the kernel. I like that Guix uses the linux-libre (no binary blobs) instead of the linux kernel. * that work is underway to get Guix to work with GNU Hurd. I like that a microk

Very useful for learning and deeping. First distributions provisioned a base for working. GuixSD provisions tools for hacking on meta-level. Containers, virtual-machines, sharing of environment, time-back machine, think it's important for industry 4.0. Mar 29, 2019, 4:05 PM by l...@gnu.org: > H

Brilliant. One of those things where people don't realise they need it until they hit it. I have hit it many times. Some projects even have it as a policy to remove old links to code. Pj. On Fri, Mar 29, 2019 at 05:05:10PM +0100, Ludovic Courtès wrote: > Hello! > > I’ve written a post on the Sof
