@mattiemMatt Massicotte I'm trying to port swift hugging face over to Linux. I've made already some progress, but I'm hitting a roadblock with swift concurrency. I guess the code may be compiling fine without strict concurrency, but I'm getting a lot of (understandable) errors.
The class is a test helper implementing a MockURLProcotol. The code I can't get to compile is here: https://github.com/thinkpractice/swift-huggingface/blob/1c12f94f8598d14574a3be18996d80c8b27d5b42/Tests/HuggingFaceTests/Helpers/MockURLProtocol.swift#L68
Would you be able to have a look at it?

๐ฅ About a month ago I asked how is everyone managing their sound effect archive...
๐บ And today I'm sharing SLAMY with the world!
It's a super-simple sound library manager with a built-in mixer for quick edits. It's a great help to me, and maybe to you too?

Alright, one more reason to love #FreeBSD:
I just upgraded one of my nuidns servers without issue. For those who don't know, nuidns is my rocinante+bastille based jail system for anycasted authoritative and recursive DNS. It has two commands, create and destroy. All I had to do was bootstrap 15.0-RELEASE with 
@BastilleBSDBastilleBSD 
- and update the rocinante scripts to use the newer release, then run a destroy, followed by a create. Done, no errors, no warnings.
My hard work on this system over the years is certainly part of why it works so well. But FreeBSD's dedication to the principle of least surprise is what makes it possible. If I had done this with Linux+Docker, I would likely have to retool it with every major distro release and often for the minor ones.
I love FreeBSD because it just works, and it does so consistently.

So, so excited to share this with everyone :D
Over the last couple of days I visited my parents and used this opportunity to migrate my fathers PC from Windows 10 to Linux Mint (take that, Micro$oft), as this machine is only used for web browsing and light office use.
Instead of spending Money on a license, I upgraded the Fujitsu i5-4690 8G RAM PC to a Lenovo m720q i5-9400t 16G RAM PC, which ironically used to run Windows as well.
To migrate - and more importantly - back up all his files, I installed UrBackup, which now runs in a bastille jail on the local FreeBSD NAS. It's now automatically backing up all the files, backed by (the amazing) OpenZFS.
And to allow remote access for remote assistance, I also installed Rustdesk in another bastille Jail, but this time on the FreeBSD NAS at my place. This now allows easy access without having to rely on the benevolence of TeamViewer anymore.
Thanks to FOSS software, I only spent a little over โฌ120 on the new hardware and a couple of hours of time, half of which was spent talking to family. It was all well spent, in my opinion. ๐๐ ๐
Want to run the same command again?
In many shells (e.g., tcsh, zsh, bash) you can type "!!".

This is good advice, and applies to any software, not just open source. I'm trying to be more aware of this when I post about my own apps, trying to assume whoever reads it has never even heard of my app before.
