Best way to transfer apps to new Mac using external drive
Also checkout Mackup.

Allow all applications to access Dropbox or Google Drive files
I am using mackup to sync application preferences between devices over Dropbox. Now if any application with synced preferences is started I will get a question if given application is allowed to access Dropbox files (because it tries to access its preferences). Examples below.

Clone user settings/preferences for Personal and Work accounts on same mac
Hello there! I use https://github.com/lra/mackup Not sure if its the BEST but it works well for me. * What does it do - Back ups your application settings in a safe directory (e.g. Dropbox) - Syncs your application settings among all your workstations - Restores your configuration on any fresh install in one command line
- Backup Solutions for MacOS

The best Mac Apps to unlock your max potential (recommended by users of r/MacOs )
Yeah, I went through a similar process when I finally upgraded my MBP after 8 years on a 2013 MBP. In light of the transition from Intel to Apple Silicon, I decided to do some spring cleaning with a fresh install. I ended up curating my own setup/bootstrap scripts as well as using mackup to backup and sync my dotfiles and app configs.

Sync settings
I use Mackup which syncs a many app settings including Raycast to your choice of location.

Dotfiles Management
I moved away from using a dotfiles repo a few years ago because I kept forgetting to add/commit files as I changed them.
Instead I use mackup[0] which automatically manages symlinks to your Dropbox/Drive/Share and has support for a huge amount of software by default. You can also manually add “extra” files you wish to track if you like.

Trying to learn Homebrew-macOS /usr/local layout --for purpose of--> migrating /usr/local from one Macbook to another
Brew bundle will install fresh copies of your package list. If you have any configuration files that you want to reuse, you’d have to transfer those separately. This might help https://github.com/lra/mackup

Show HN: A new provisioning tool built with mgmt
This is a new provisioning tool built with https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/ that I hope both provides great value and also demonstrates the start of a new way to build certain kinds of software.
Thanks for reading!

The Cell Programming Language
I've looked briefly into this project before. Some ideas are similar to what I'm doing in https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/ but the really weird thing is that I have no idea who's behind this language. A person? A company? A small group? Are they anonymous for some reason or am I oblivious?

Show HN: Workflow Orchestrator in Golang
I don't generally believe in orchestrators (they miss the point, things are not single computers and neither is the world) and so I have that feedback here but also for:
> Airflow/Cadence/Temporal/Databuilderframework?
Which don't really think about modelling non-centralized things.
This of course doesn't mean they're not useful, it's just that they don't have what I believe is a good long-term value proposition.
I'm incredibly biased because I'm working on programmatic, real-time modelling of distributed systems with https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/

The Claro Programming Language
The DAG concurrency stuff feels familiar to what I've been doing with our language, mcl. https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/
Our goal is NOT a general-purpose turing-complete language like this one is, but we do some amazing lock-free, DAG concurrency things to achieve the processing wins.

HashiCorp Adopts Business Source License
I don't think it's good news, but why is anyone surprised? Nobody wants to pay for open source.
Companies want it for free, and individuals don't have enough luxury time to be able to do it themselves.
Prove me wrong and help patch or fund https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/ and you'll have an even better replacement for terraform!

I want to contribute to open-source software written in Go
Individual here, not a company. We'd love contributors to https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/

On June 12th, many subreddits will be going dark to protest the killing of 3rd Party Apps! All FOSS apps are 3rd Party Apps. Will /r/linux join the strike?
Eventually decided puppet wasn't a good enough tool to be able to autonomously deploy and continuously manage such clusters. So I started working on this https://github.com/purpleidea/mgmt/ project. Not quite MVP yet, but trying to get there soon. Got distracted along the way with having to work real jobs (Red Hat, Amazon) to pay bills.

Interactive animations
Yeah, that project is pretty much at the bottom of my list, unfortunately. My top projects these days are mgmt, klister, recursion-schemes, and hint... And that's already too much!

Benchmarking ansible-core 2.11 vs 2.14 and python 3.9 vs 3.11 along with ara's database backends
There are certainly faster alternatives out there (mgmt comes to mind) but then, they're not Ansible.
What are some alternatives?
chezmoi - Manage your dotfiles across multiple diverse machines, securely.
GNU Stow - GNU Stow - mirror of savannah git repository occasionally with more bleeding-edge branches
macprefs - Backup and Restore your Mac System and App Preferences (e.g. defaults write)
Ansible - Ansible is a radically simple IT automation platform that makes your applications and systems easier to deploy and maintain. Automate everything from code deployment to network configuration to cloud management, in a language that approaches plain English, using SSH, with no agents to install on remote systems. https://docs.ansible.com.
desktop - Focus on what matters instead of fighting with Git.
Pulumi - Pulumi - Infrastructure as Code in any programming language. Build infrastructure intuitively on any cloud using familiar languages 🚀
yadm - Yet Another Dotfiles Manager
Home Manager using Nix - Manage a user environment using Nix [maintainer=@rycee]
kde-plasma-backup - Script for backup and restore KDE Plasma environment configuration.
Chef - Chef Infra, a powerful automation platform that transforms infrastructure into code automating how infrastructure is configured, deployed and managed across any environment, at any scale
konsave - A command line program written in Python to let you backup your dotfiles and switch to other ones in an instant. Works out-of-the box on KDE Plasma!
