I understand it cannot work well on random text files, but would it support structured text? Like .c, .java or even JSON

I feel like CA (single, or multi-state) would work quite well on dedicated hardware, how big could the grid even be? I may be missing the obvious, but it does seem easier to scale compared to cores and manual dispatch. But otherwise yeah, n

I have personally started to archive pages I find interesting through a browser extension. Its html/css not markdown but good enough for my needs.

I completely agree that some (if not the majority of) developers aren't aware of what's happening under abstraction layers, but then I have to ask: is it the developer fault, or the abstraction's? If you were to ask a new pro

"Math for dummies" book writers don't argue that mathematicians are stupid/incompetent because they do not spend enough time on the basics. It has also nothing to do with teaching people to count, read, or the scientific

But he says that he has a large-scale systemic solution, it is literally the reason for his videos. He isn't doing it so I can get my CPU trivia, but because he believes it will result in better software. Been at it for years, and so f

Aren't you agreeing with Casey by saying this is an effort/cultural problem? He also does say that fast software can sell better.

It doesn't have to come from the free market, FOSS is hardly exempt of awfully slow/unstable software. Nobody figured out yet how to make writing good software the default/path-of-least-resistance.

What I am saying is that this is a natural phenomenon assuming no technical solution. People will tend to optimize their software based on the performance of their hardware. I completely agree that many apps are horrendously slow, but given

What is your opinion on the cause and the solution?

I have actually watched many of his videos, as an individual I very much like his advices. What I am saying however is that this has nothing to do whatsoever with improving software at scale. But my point still stands, Casey focuses solely

I don't believe this is the root cause, computers got faster, and software got quicker to the state of "run good enough". I'm calling Wirth's law on it. "Clean code" is indeed often a bad idea, but you are

I personally do not like how his solution boils down to "just learn more" which may be true at an individual level, but not as the general solution to awful software. You will never be able to force developers worldwide to start w

There's a difference between your show being cancelled, and nobody coming to listen.

Why does it matter if people feel righteous? Just let them pirate, and if indeed not enough people follow what YouTube desires, let it shut down.

If they can sell their work without copyright, all good for them. It is not my fault if ideas can be indefinitely copied without anybody noticing. I am just saying that this is not worth monitoring. Ideas should just not be treated the same

You are acting like entertainment exists in a vacuum. You go about your day, consume some movie, then go back to your life as if nothing happened. In practice, new entertainment entices more people into consuming it. For example lets say yo
