use arch i mean, if you want to use a distro put together by amateurs then use the one that basically just gives you upstream and isn't afraid to mark basically every bug as UPSTREAM WONTFIX instead of some third-derivative bullshit like Mint. as a bonus you get to use software that's actually fairly up-to-date. i like arch a lot

you use gnome 3 by mashing the windows key and zipping around with the expose clone. who cares if they have Big Icons in the "app drawer" nobody on earth will ever use.

prefect posted:isn't salt a rewrite of chef in python? that seems interesting salt is a pretty good remote command execution framework bolted to the side of pretty bad configuration management salt is really handy for orchestrating chef/puppet runs if you insist on using cfg mgmt to do deployment

nbsd is the guy who said Always Use Configuration Management On All Servers (even if you only have one) which I'm rapidly coming around to, I know he doesn't like Ansible. I don't like the ones with agents though. Ansible is lightweight and pretty nice. As a bonus, it's written in a Good Language.

ansible is great for deploying internal / non critical things where you just want some minimum effort towards documentation for whatever service you're trying to stand up puppet is for more serious endeavors but the syntax is horrifying and oh my god our puppet modules are a rat nest spaghetti horror that i refuse to touch

especially older installations. those are the worst. with half the infra defined as nodes, the other half in hiera. multiple modules that do the same thing with a special snowflake edge case. no one who understands how it all works, but there are dozens of retarded gatekeepers, repo approvers, managers, qa. and of course everything is all tied together. so a mundane task like adding an A record to a zone file becomes a kafkaesque nightmare

Celexi posted:i think that happens on all de's, its not actually cde but xorg default as the window manager shuts down, doesn't happen on wayland so the reason this actually happens is because we invented a cross-toolkit protocol to broadcast font settings and such but nobody but gnome actually decided to use it http://standards.freedesktop.org/xsettings-spec/xsettings-spec-0.5.html when gnome shuts down it shuts down the settings server which causes all gtk+ apps to stop applying the custom theme and such

so you wrote a cross-platform theme communication engine, but the only thing it accomplishes is breaking the themes on your own product during shutdown shut it all down, this is peak linux desktop

yeah, all that wasted space is to match the visual style of the actual gnome 3 applications that nobody uses because they're uniformly garbage; they draw the window controls client side and put part of their UI in there it satisfies their three design goals of eliminating any predictably inert area of the UI that can be safely clicked on to move the window around, making the title impossible to find in a sea of visual noise while truncating it as much as possible and turning the window into an immovable obstacle whenever the application's UI hangs because they're garbage
