I think its a nice alternative to developers to offer software that is not available on your package manager, but having a distro offer multiple different ways of installing a package is not a good idea, I’m talking about ubuntu of course, as a user I just want to apt-get update/upgrade and be sure my system is up to date, snap undermines that because I’m not sure anymore. also I don’t understand why I need to close the app I’m using to update it with snap, if the app is containerized I should be able to install multiple versions without affecting each other.

following a recipe is like executing an algorithm, except there is no segmentation fault. whats not to like.

love parallel !, for example encoding a bunch wavs to opus:

parallel --eta 'opusenc --bitrate 256 {} {.}.opus' ::: *.wav
