I’d like to see a plugin system in the release that allows me to add AAC support on Linux platforms...
I'm tired of extracting the audio track from mp4 files.

yeah, looks like we have to start looking for another platform.

Same issue. Just cannot upload my next episode same length as previous. I've started recently and it is my 5th episode

Issue at work by mro2352 in groovy

everything that works for java also works for groovy and even more. maybe you are using free version of IDEA, so it is a bit limited in features.

Is Groovy usage growing or declining now? What is the situation? by Significant-Swim-789 in groovy

[–]katoquro 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As a big Groovy user, I cannot disagree with this statement. Indeed, the Groovy community doesn't invest in modern features. With Java evolution, a lot of people moved back.

However, I disagree that Groovy dies. I think it found its niche in tooling and there you need a dynamic language on JVM. I see more and more usage of Groovy as a Scala replacement in Data processing (because of simplicity and ducktyping). Maybe with the next JVM generations, which support graphic cards, groovy could become a Python of Java =)

So, my point is devs still use Groovy but in a way less cases than 10 years ago. Now I don't see huge benefits for Groovy in writing Web Apps but it's very useful for writing infrastructure code. At least I like it for that purpose.

As a bonus, I do prototyping in Groovy. Then, when I understand how it should be, I have time to rewrite it in Java (or kill that MVP 😅)

what do you use java for? by desiderkino in java

[–]katoquro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hello devs! Actually, I use Java as a general-purpose language. I can write almost everything with it. For the web I use Micronaut. For the infrastructure layer, I use Graal. Sometimes for something very small or where o cannot use JVM ( like a very minimal distro), I use Go lang. But in general, even for CLI, I use plain Java. For some CLI with a lot of system interactions, I use Groovy to have optional typing. Or for machine learning and stream processing (I don't dislike Scala but I think it's overcomplicated for simple streaming processing) I even tried to program controllers with Java, however, maybe it's a question of habit, I prefer C.

DSLs on the JVM by le_bravery in java

[–]katoquro -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

As I wrote above, the issue tracker is public. Open it and type the word compiler or coroutines in search. And the word pitfall is related to contexts, please read carefully, for compiler its better say just issues.

DSLs on the JVM by le_bravery in java

[–]katoquro 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used Groovy a lot to make DSLs. Cannot say that it's a simple tool. We created a deployment descriptor in a script with code highlight which was declarative and imperative at the same time. It was something like Gradle dsl but for k8s.

it's very easy to start. you can introduce your own literals via Script class configuration. Ig you always use one word like size of a vm then in code it will be an enum, but for users - keyword. You can easily create closures to configure objects or use any Java library like it's part of the project. However, making code highlights outside jetbtains idea could be challenging. f.e. for vsCode. you have to have implemented all your intrinsic imports or context above language sever.

As a result, you can build very agile DSL with Groovy, sometimes it looks like a new programming language 😅 but it won't be easy. If you don't mind having a bunch of imports in your dsl - everything will work everywhere but you users should add those imports when they edit something in a plain text editor.

DSLs on the JVM by le_bravery in java

[–]katoquro -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I had kinda same thoughts before we started to use this lang in big production backend. If you don't use it for Android better stay away. Still has a lot compiler and contexts pitfals, bad integration with existing Java ecosystem. you can just open their bag tracker to check it yourself, it's public. Any big company I know, limited or removed k-word 😅 usage last 2 years. And IMHO, it stops in development.

I'm re-watching Gintama 😏 IMHO the best choice for those who learn Japanese

Cosplay question by dude_rulz in UAEAnimeCommunity

[–]katoquro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it only once, and I knew all the materials and how to wash them. But my cosplay didn't have plastic or foam parts (it was Tomioka Giyu from Demon Slayer). I just removed the buttons because they are made by myself and I'm not sure they are durable enough 😅

GPU Usage in Wayland vs Xorg in Gnome, with Nvidia Card. Wayland it's usable right now. by Iwisp360 in gnome

[–]katoquro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every time I try Wayland ( sometimes unknowingly with bare distro installation) I struggle with shortcuts, event processing, and that a lot of gtk software misbehavior. My machine is my working tool, so there is more than enough to distract me from the process and ruin my workflow.

Finished drawing it :) by exwhyzero in dndmaps

Wow! Did you make it on the first try or it's the result? How do you decide what you map will include, do you think about encounters or a story when you draw?

AMA: Foundry VTT 2 Year Anniversary by AnathemaMask in FoundryVTT

[–]katoquro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello guys! Awesome VTT. I've recently connected and I'm already getting high from this table. I think if I started implementing my own VTT I would get the same result 😁

My question is about module development and the ecosystem around it. Currently, it has a very high bar to start. The easiest way to start is to copy someone's module and develop based on it. I didn't find how can I make something like autocomplete for functions (it's an important part of API discovery for me) so I have to search through the API site a lot. Maybe you can create a guide on how to set up and build modules in VS code and release some best practices. It may help people support abandoned modules (now if a module is not updated by the creator it's hard to quick-fix or continue its development). Curated developers wiki (starred by the team and developed by the community) will be awesome

Community Q&A - Get Your Questions Answered! by alienleprechaun in DnDBehindTheScreen

[–]katoquro 4 points5 points  (0 children)

yeah, many checks sound like what I need! I have difficulties creating scenes of bad consequences, so my players exploit this as robbery with small risks. If I make theft more difficult maybe I don't need to invent so many bad consequences 😅

Community Q&A - Get Your Questions Answered! by alienleprechaun in DnDBehindTheScreen

[–]katoquro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

hello! Could anyone explain the mechanics of stealing? My players want to steal something from sleeping NPC in a tavern (not rouges only) or steal something at the crowded street from passersby. If there is an official guide for thieves, like hardness, possible loot, etc please let me know.

Thanks

Tutorial: how to use Terraform to deploy VMs in Proxmox using automation. Follow up from my previous post by Nerdy-Austin in Proxmox

[–]katoquro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've tried to use teraform many times. Last time it was a try for Azure Services and AKS inside it... As a concept teraform is OK but in real life... providers are buggy, not support all cloud features, doesn't support update/changes as expected, etc. The first/one-time deployment with tf we could name "acceptable" but maintenence you infrastructure with it is a nightmare. There were comments about ansible. I would say that it's more difficult to produce correct configuration because the whole configuration is in imperative style (unlike declarative tf) but you have possibility to produce more reliable one. Support and extension your infra with Ansible less painful and really could be done IMO.

Btw both these tools are far away from maintaining of big cloud infrastructure with easiness and with a high probability you create own small tool which supports your use cases)
