i think that sentence is taken out of context a bit, the problem with those pkg binaries is that they're not portable—which the post describes EDIT: actually no, I think charlie is…

mise uses these as well and adopting them has been a massive improvement in the user experience for my python users. y'all have been doing a fantastic job maintaining them. i'm als…

I think node already does this (sans AI), idk where the code lives but deno could probably just use the same list of repos

I agree that it sucks not being able to have comments in package.json, but I think it's the right call to not adopt something like jsonc. It would break so much tooling at this poi…

Your proposal wouldn't help me at all. I wouldn't say that the problem I'm having is even "spam" per se. (For context I receive hundreds of PRs each week across my OSS projects lik…

Considering nothing in that reply criticized nix you’re certainly wrong. I don’t hesitate to share my opinions on nix anytime (just like nix users themselves) so I’d have no reason…

ALL mise features are experimental until the design is finalized. I don’t do breaking changes except in exceptional circumstances with a long procedure, so experimental means I hav…

I always like to mention rcm. It's not a popular one but I tried probably 10 managers before it and much prefer it to the competition: https://github.com/thoughtbot/rcm

I am genuinely confused. Are you saying dotfile managers need to be more complex? Or that nix's problem space is the only solution for the things in nix's domain? (of which dotfile…

it's dependency free. You don't even need brew to install brew formulas. The "exception" to that are linux package managers like apt-get and dnf which it calls under the hood. I th…

The problem with mise managing its own version is perf. I don't want a shim that has to read config files to exec the right version. I would make use of min_version. It's not perfe…

how nix-pilled do you have to be to think that nix is the "only real solution" to dotfile managers?

Haven't looked into it but agents are so good at this I bet it'll be trivial to add

It’s quite new but I’ve been cooking up some new bootstrapping features with mise which people may find relevant here: https://mise.jdx.dev/bootstrap.html It’s for things like dotf…

mise isn't, and has the advantage that you don't need to build your own lightsaber with direnv and nix.

doesn't aqua:docker/compose just work? it does for me

mise kind of supports dependencies, just not in the way people expect coming from any other package manager. The dependencies in mise are not automatic and all of them need to be m…

1. the supply chain attacks I've seen are naive. They just leverage postinstall hooks. Malicious code also needs to be executed, not simply installed, so it's a lot less likely tha…

In aube you get all this out of the box plus a lifecycle jail (next MV will have that on by default) and defaults to trustPolicy=no-downgrade (would not have helped here but still …

Feeling is mutual!

it was definitely a risky move, env vars are not perfect for this use-case (varargs is awkward) but I'm happy I went with the file tasks setup and the magic comments anyways. It's …

I'm glad you're seeing it this way and finding value in it, this was very intentional. I wasn't happy with the status quo with all of the other tools in this space (nix, bazel, buc…
