Note that work is underway to port sourcehut to NixOS: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/54425/files

The package description on pypi says "The binary package is a practical choice
for development and testing but in production it is advised to use the package
built from sources."

This morning I deployed a new search page, with instructions on how to use
search properly. Check it out! 

    http://pprjam.com/search

Search is important. If you can't find what you're searching for, it's
considered a bug. Send an email to this list or to me directly with the paper
you are trying to find, and I will fix it.

Also, the search instructions could probably use some improvements. If something
isn't clear, let me know and I will fix.

Thanks and have a good weekend!

One nice feature of GitLab/GitHub is the ability to create "organizations" which
don't have a single owner. This way we can separate collaborative projects
(companies, larger OSS, etc) from individual projects.

Does something like this make sense for sr.ht? If so, do you, Drew, plan on
adding the feature before or after public release?

What would get you to stop ignoring Rust? (If you are ignoring it.)

Anyone can post their ideas, issues, or experiences using pprjam. I will post
questions and updates from time to time. To post, send an email to:

If you are new to mailing lists, here is a helpful article about mailing list
etiquette: https://man.sr.ht/lists.sr.ht/etiquette.md I'm pretty chill though,
don't make a sweat over an email.

Drew - I like this article but I’m worried that this style of development won’t win because the people that care about this stuff (devs like you and I) are in the minority. The average user cares about eye-catching content, likes, and retweets. As long as more compute power makes it into their phones, the weight of web pages won’t matter. 

This kinda reminds me of “worse is better” - worse web pages and JavaScript will win because the underlying hardware will make up for speed losses, and average users don’t care about purity. How do you think this will play out over time?
