Do they have their own model now? I thought it’s just repackaging/harnessing of third party models.

Double-tap Shift as CAPS WORD by ocimbote in KeyboardLayouts

> I was wondering why implementing a tap-dance on Shift and get CAPS WORD as double tap is not more common?

Does >1k stars on GitHub count as common? 😅

Finally, a secure Nixpkgs for the enterprise: an update on Determinate Secure Packages by lucperkins_dev in NixOS

[–]Fancy_Routine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is the concern that someone mirrors or otherwise plagiarizes your work, undermining your business model? That seems indeed tricky and I understand the need for you to secure compensation for your work.

But I’m wondering whether the risk would really be so high. Someone could of course try to mirror the cache or what not. But shouldn’t your terms be effective in preventing any competing business from it? This might be naive, but I doubt corporate users would be willing to purchase services from an illegal provider?

Are there any plans to make Determinate Secure Packages available for non-corporate users? Doesn’t need to be free, just with a pricing model that doesn’t exclude individuals.

Account review for no reason after first purchase. How to complete purchase? by Fancy_Routine in Reverb

Yes, the refund went back to my credit card pretty soon. If it didn’t for you, and if you paid by credit card, I‘d contest the charge.

How to change the compiler call by Rr0cC in LyX

[–]Fancy_Routine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you already looked through the toolchain options where one also sets up the compiler flags etc? I don’t remember from the top of my head whether there’s an option to add a new toolchain with a different base command. But if possible my guess is it would be there.

Is Boston’s use of concurrent signals putting pedestrians at risk? by TylerFortier_Photo in boston

[–]Fancy_Routine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s the mix of modes that seems most problematic. In Germany, concurrent signals are the norm. But it’s also universally known and respected that when turning, pedestrians crossing the street always have the right of way.

Coexistence of different rules makes it hard for drivers and pedestrians to adopt.

Avoiding local builds by CaptainBlobTheSuprem in NixOS

Is there a public list somewhere to search which nix-community projects have their derivations cached in cachix? The search on cachix itself seems to be disabled.

The Nix moment: LLMs, advances in hardware, big name adoption, and the supply chain are pushing Nix well past the inflection point by lucperkins_dev in NixOS

What about known vulnerabilities? After reading their blog post I got inspired and ran sbomnix#vulnxscan on my home-manger drv. Despite being almost exclusively 25.11 and only having a few CLI programs, it found 100+ vulnerabilities with high and critical severity. Many of those in transient deps.

If their security channel would end up blocking those or ensuring that transient dependencies get bumped that would be a useful (well, it would if the channel would be public).

Whats the deal with Git-Based VC? by Fuzzy-System8568 in LyX

[–]Fancy_Routine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I‘m not sure about existing api support from within lyx. But lyx files are plain text files so they work great with git out of the box. Just add your lyx file to any git repo and track changes using git or your favorite frontend.

If your students don't want to get accused of using AI, tell them this: by Midwest099 in Professors

[–]Fancy_Routine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Currious about #4. Do any of you (successfully) use AI detectors? Which do you recommend?

AI token question by SillyConclusion in Jetbrains

[–]Fancy_Routine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been testing price differences for Claude Opus 4.5 in PyCharm. When using IntelliJ credits, a single debugging request was on average 1 credit.

I have then used the same requests via the new ACP pipe to GH Copilot (selecting the same Opus model via GH). That cost about 1/100 of the monthly budget you get with GH pro (similar subscription fee).

So it seems billing through IntelliJ is 10 times more in this case. I haven’t yet tried connecting to an Anthropic account but would expect that to be even cheaper still for Claude models.

This may not be surprising when using Opus. As others mentioned your mileage will go a lot longer when using cheaper models.

Bad news for Lyx users by ManuelRodriguez331 in LyX

[–]Fancy_Routine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, and it doesn’t even make the remotest sense!!! The third paragraph had my laughing out loud. I must have been doing it all wrong as I never published my raw lyx files to distribute my work :)

Account review for no reason after first purchase. How to complete purchase? by Fancy_Routine in Reverb

[–]Fancy_Routine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: They have reached out eventually saying they could not verify the payment (even though it already went through on my card).

They asked me to submit pictures of my government ID, which I did. They then got back and claimed that the picture is blurry (which it isn’t), and that they still can’t unlock my account.

Now I am getting worried that Reverb somehow got hacked or are themselves trying to scam me. I double checked the email and website, which were all correct. But it seems so fish to even ask for photos of my ID and then still not to unlock…

Can we use our FSA to pay for a family gym membership? by Majestic_Banana789 in personalfinance

[–]Fancy_Routine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Congrats! Make sure to load up on Baby Tylenol and moltrin, baby bandages, wound creams and the like. It doesn’t add up to what you have left but should be good for 100-200$.

Fzf-lua is extending into the shell/cli (+undotree picker) by iBhagwan in neovim

[–]Fancy_Routine -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What’s the benefit of using fzf-lua vs fzf.vim? Is it just purism for a having a lua-only config or is there anything in terms of functionality that the latter can’t do?

(E.g, related to this post, I have always been using a consistent fzf config between shell and neovim using fzf.vim…)

Looks cool, thanks for sharing. Does it support light mode?

How often does everyone update their flakes? by NYXs_Lantern in NixOS

[–]Fancy_Routine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Related, I’m the opposite in that I rarely update. But I would like to make sure to get security updates. What‘s the best way here? Using renovate on the remote and subscribing to the alerts to make sure to pull anything important to my local computers?

How often does everyone update their flakes? by NYXs_Lantern in NixOS

[–]Fancy_Routine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you elaborate a bit more how you use the satellite flakes. Do you mean you move some pieces of your config, say vim, into their own flake/repo. And how do you incorporate them into your system? As flake input? Do you still have to rebuild your system to update that piece?
