Been a very exciting release.
The nix-darwin upgrades come along right as i migrated my Mac to Nix, but even outside of that, all the package and module merges are always welcome. All my machines run Nix now, so the less work I have to do manually, the better

What made the release exciting for you?
I just roll along on NixOS-unstable, so for me changes just trickle in over time.

For nix-darwin specifically, the cleaned up build process, and SDK packaging is nice. It hasn't eliminated all the issues, but a lot of those are less of a fault of Nix, and more an issue with macOS design. Hoping they can be addressed somehow, but for now, the issues with workarounds are tracked.
And just in general, Python has kind of been a pain in the ass to understand, so any improvement is exciting, as i'm still learning how things work here.
A bunch of packages I want got officially merged or updated during this release cycle too, and as much as I appreciate thirdparty flakes, I don't want to rely on them too much
I use QGIS, which needs to stay in sync with a number of Python packages and plugins. I have thought of using Nix for that, but am not sure if everything I need is packaged for Nix.
I’m using Conda now, a Python package member which seems more popular for this niche need.
On the last day actually, haha
For anyone interested, this was due to a curl regression AFAIK. 24.11 was supposed to release a week ago but a lot of stuff had to be rebuilt.

the Wayland color management protocol might finally be close to merging after four years in discussion.
But also
Going all the way back to January 2020
So really it's been almost 5 years.
Let's hope we can finally get it and move on to any other remaining protocols.
And you can do anything you wanna do

A user types at a terminal (a physical teletype). This terminal is connected through a pair of wires to a UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver and Transmitter) on the computer.
Once I had the opportunity to sit at such a machine.
A real typewriter with real paper. And no display! Only paper.
I type my "command line" and it appears on my paper. Ok, where else...
The computer responds by letting it's response appear - what do you think? - on my paper, too. Not by magic, but by my machine typing it.
I am typing to my paper. Then the computer is typing to my paper. And so on.
Hardly ever have I had such a creepy feeling while doing computer work 😵💫

Basically it was a two liner dependency and how npm works it doesn’t cache and always downloads all dependencies fresh. This lead to 440GB/Month of traffic in a lage project.
Instead of removing a dependency we should just accept that the entire JS ecosystem is a total ****show and start over

The three WCK workers were identified as Azeem Jalal Abu Daqqa, Ahed Azmi Qudeih, and Mohammed Adel Al-Namla.
This attack is not an isolated incident, with a previous strike in April resulting in the deaths of seven workers.
