I started with hyprland when I switched my desktop from windows to arch recently (june) and moved to sway. I ran into bugs and behaviour I don't like:
- Having two monitors and turning them off (either physically or through dpms) shifts all workspaces to the last monitor that is on, even if it's on for a split second,
- Turning off monitors (physically/dpms) caused waybar to crash.
I don't have those issues on sway, so I'll stick with it until hyprland matures a little more.
I just tried it and it works as expected for Windows <--> Android.
I was using syncthing but this will replace it for one offs.
EDIT: I checked out another app in the comments and their website mentioned that it didn't work with a VPN. I can also confirm that LocalSend works when connected to VPN.
> This deal, given to Google, once again shows how these laws reward large corporations, and hurt small start-ups who can not broker or afford such exemptions.
I imagine the OP means that Google and other giants already have the lobbying power, funds, and other resources to navigate around political blockades, while start-ups will naturally not have the money, personnel, connections etc. to do the same.
I'm not sure that follows. The bill is specifically targeted at "big tech". Businesses with less than $1 billion in revenue and/or fewer than 20 million active Canadian users are exempt.
Presumably he is talking about news startups. For instance, a news agency with fewer than two employees is not eligible to receive the funds. This makes it difficult to bootstrap a startup news organization while the established players are sitting there collecting free money from the government.
That still seems like a good deal for Google. Anything on its way to becoming Google-sized has a pitstop to deal with the Canadian government at over 100x less revenue.
Just like a bunch of us here, I also wrote an SSG.
I setup a cronjob to fetch weather data and run the SSG to parse the XML and render a weather "website" on my VPS.
But for the blogs I've had/have, I just use a pre-existing one (zola). There are hundreds of SSGs out there, why bother building yet another one if one already exists for transforming your preferred base doc (markdown, asciidoc, morse code, etc)

It's really not that rosy tbf. I went through something like: SvelteKit, 11ty, Astro, Zola, hugo, and possibly others in-between.
It's pretty easy to develop a preference where none of the mainstream SSGs fare well at. Some established large SSGs might do X but they have their own challenges too.
You start migrating by filtering based on some criteria, and find a match that does a great job initially, only to get bitten later, when you've migrated and settled and start seeing the cracks.
For example, Zola, and many others, doesn't support asciidoc. The handful that do have their own problems too. (I'm now with hugo which support asciidoc but I'm still determined to build my own ssg)
It's not fantasizing about the perfect tool, as much as developing a setup where you're comfortable and happy. Especially in the case of SSG, where you're more exposed to the internals and by extension any errors/problems.
The most commonly missing SSG feature for me is being able to transform relative links between Markdown files (which VS Code happily auto-completes for me) into relative links between the resulting HTML files.
Similarly hard to find is tagging posts based on file system metadata (e.g. everything in “posts/linux/“ should be tagged with “linux”).
In a streaming on demand, user driven world, how do you define “air time”? I can’t see how you could force consumers to consume a certain amount of CanCon, and simply ensuring CanCon %| of content available doesn’t make sense either since a small amount of content could be consumed up to 100% of total platform consumption, and a large amount of content could be consumed as little as 0% of the total platform consumption.
I'm not sure if they're going after a single podcast show, or after podcast apps. If the latter, it's probably just making available Canadian made podcasts to some amount of Canadian made podcast and promoting them in recommendations and listings. If the former, it's a bit more strange, maybe inviting guests that are Canadians on the show, for some amount of episodes?
Wealth is an industry term. It doesn't imply that one should be wealthy (rich) to use this tool. Wealth management is a tool for planning your own personal wealth for the future.
For example, you add all your accounts/investments and have the software calculate how much you need to save so that by age 65 (retirement) you have $X which you will need so that by the time you reach life expectancy (say 90 y/o) you have > 0$ left.
There is other stuff you can add in, like "I would like Y$ saved by 20XX so that I can purchase a house. How will that affect the amount I need to save now and how much will that affect my savings at retirement."
> Or do they have meetings with their accountants, bankers, brokers.
It is probably a good idea to have a financial advisor do this for you since they have the know-how (and certification depending where you live) and will know about regional benefits you can apply which can increase your "wealth". However, if you want to do this yourself because you know the space then there is software like this, or Wealth Simple for example.
