許紹雄女兒
許惠菁簽棋人做司儀
多謝Bob畀機會
「我冇資格繼承爸爸嘅衣鉢呀，我有好多好多嘢要學，希望大家多多指教多多支持」

資深演員 #許紹雄（#Benz雄）於去年10月病逝，獨生女 #許惠菁（Charmaine）於亡父百日忌辰，在社交網撰悼文：「還是萬般不捨，願你一切安好」，為了不令亡父和母親憂心，許惠菁努力振作投入生活，今日（9日）宣佈加入 #林盛斌（#Bob）主理的 #棋人娛樂（Chessman），主力做 #司儀 工作。

她留言多謝Bob邀請加入公司，「半年前嘅我點都唔會諗到呢段時間會需要經歷接二連三嘅變化，3個月內一次又一次咁推我出comfort zone，但係老土啲講句 when life give you lemons, make lemonade. 好感激呢段時間有屋企人同一班朋友嘅陪伴，關懷令到整杯lemonade嘅過程容易好多。」

許惠菁回覆《娛壹》表示，「係呀係呀，我簽咗chessman，多謝Bob...

Ok quick "screenshot" before bed.

[ 0: 3m 3s ] libunistring-1.2 (build -j6)
[ 1: 2m 18s ] libgcrypt-1.11.2 (build -j5)
[ 2: 3m 40s ] python313-3.13.11nb1 (build -j2)
[ 3: 5m 0s ] gettext-lib-0.22.5 (configure -j3)

There is now support in main for dynamic MAKE_JOBS, designed to ensure that build throughput is as optimal as possible. To enable, all you need to do is set:

options = {
dynamic_jobs = { max = 16, min = 2 },
}

and bob will figure out the rest.

The problem with releasing bob v0.8.1 with a bunch of great features (available now!) is that I just now thought of an absolutely killer feature.

v0.9.0 may be out sooner rather than later... This is something I've wanted from pbulk forever.

#pkgsrc #bob

Bobfahren, Rodeln, Eislaufen: Winterspaß für Skimuffel https://www.diesachsen.de/freizeit/bobfahren-rodeln-eislaufen-winterspass-fuer-skimuffel-3101319?utm_source=Mastodon&utm_medium=dpa&utm_content=textlink #Freizeit #Wintersport #Sachsen #Tourismus #Deutschland #Wetter #Ski #Bob #Altenberg

This also provides a significant performance boost. In pbulk, every build requires a full setup/teardown of the environment just to check the status of the package.

On most platforms this means unpacking the bootstrap kit and any other setup, before forking the tools to check various things, then wiping everything at the end.

Now that all of this is in native Rust, bob simply checks all at the start, and saves a huge amount of time by skipping all up-to-date packages.

Rust FTW

#pkgsrc #bob

Playing around with a cool new bob feature. One of the most opaque parts of pbulk is that you never really know WHY a particular package is being rebuilt.

Bob's up-to-date checker is now written in native Rust (no need to fork pkg_info and pkg_admin), records the reasons, and provides a new status command:

$ bob list status rust
PKGNAME STATUS REASON
rust-bin-1.91.1 pending package not found
rust-1.91.1 pending deps changed: +digest-20220214, ...

"Der Beirat der Bodensee-Oberschwaben-Bahn (BOB) hat den Gesellschaftern der Bahn empfohlen, die Verantwortung für die Regionalbahn Linie RB 91 Friedrichshafen–Aulendorf vollständig in die Hände des Landes zu geben. Damit wird es Ende 2027 nach über 30 erfolgreichen Jahren Betrieb der BOB zu einem Betreiberwechsel kommen."

J. R. "Bob" Dobbs devised the first known treatment for Quetzacoatliasis, a kidney ailment spread by flying feathered serpents. He wrote it on a bar napkin, his preferred archival material, which was immediately lost.

The last newspaper I believed unreservedly was “Warhafftige Zeitung von den Gottlosen Hexen” (True Newspaper of the Godless Witches) from 1571.
Everything that came after that was lies intended to confuse me. Even though it was repeatedly claimed that this time it would be different, they remained lies. Until I read the Dobbstown Mirror. The Dobbstown Mirror tells the truth, and only the truth. Praise Bob! Thank you, @onan

I just released bob v0.7.0.

https://github.com/jperkin/bob/blob/main/CHANGES.md#version-070-2026-01-30

This version now supports macOS sandboxes. I figured out how to avoid SIGBUS when re-using chroots, but unfortunately it means waiting for 2 minutes for 'diskutil unmount' to unmount /System read-only loopback mounts. No, I don't know why it takes that long for a read-only mount either!

Also a new "bob list" command, so you can do things like:

$ bob list failed | xargs bob rebuild

plus loads of other improvements.

On his 84th birthday this past Saturday,
#Bob #Dylan played a show in keeping with his still-serious touring schedule,
but also his apparently irrepressible instinct to work:
on music,
on writing,
on painting,
on sculpture
