Waterfox is the best browser I have ever used. Native tree style tabs, minimalist UI, built in ad blocking, Firefox extensions.

I was just coming to ask about word frequency. I get that cadence being jumpy might be less enjoyable, but having a look ahead that validates if a “likely to be hard to one-shot” word is coming up and slightly ramps down the pace, might mak

What is it bringing from those languages? The FAQ reads like it is just altered syntax for C#, no difference in semantics or function.

Ding. Ding. Ding. "Provided value to the content author". AI scrapping negatively impacts the content author with zero compensation. There is no mutual benefit.

I am very fond of Gohu font. I have used it on a recent static blog formatting adventure http://dntbl.ink , converted to woff2. I couldn't be happier with how it renders and gives that VAX feel.

I enjoyed your post - PCB routing is often an act of 'zen and the art of..' for me and I recently did a similar exercise for an esp32.

Why not use Claude one single time to create a service that does this? I have this same question with 90% of the 'simple' use cases I see for these task runners, it always seems more efficient (not to mention consistent) to have

No the shortage goes back to Regan when their justified strike was busted. It ended the PATCO “union” and was a negative turning point for labour unions in general.

They didn't tweak their prompt styling request enough... The ChatGPT world is depressing.

This is really great, both from a specific application perspective, but also the approach. Really enjoyed looking through the repo and was inspired by your work.

C#/dotNet has Ahead of Time compilation that works very well with containerization. Obviously there are still overheads for the AoT runtime, but it is pruned.

I had an Abloy Protec2 malfunction while locked (PSA don't use them for key-only sashlocks) and the locksmith drilled it out in ~10 seconds. That is the last time I spend that kind of money on a lock!

My assumption is that there could be higher dimensional 'token' representations that can be used instead of vision tokens (though obviously not human interpretable). I wonder if there is an optimisation for compression that takes

Well said, I would buy them in a heartbeat if it was from a moral company.

This was build originally with WPF and C#, but with an in-house MVVM framework. I have been slowly moving it to Avalonia, which I highly recommend.

This is my own software, but – as a project engineering data exploration tool – high information and functional density was a key goal: https://engdata.com/

This is really interesting, I'd love to see this perspective incorporated into mapping software like google maps/streetview.

It’s all a pros and cons.. the benefit of those characters are they are not used anywhere else, hence you never have to worry about escaping/quoting strings. But obviously most of my csv usage is automated in/out.

Using ascii 'US' Unit Separator and 'RS' Record Separator characters would be a far better implementation of a CSV file.

I bought one of these Marshall speakers to use as a practice amp, only to find that the dsp latency is unusably bad. Maybe this is an option…

The only real landmine for c# is the default thread synchronization. If it was inverted, the language would be much better off. I think they also made a mistake in removing the OOTB method for throwing away the sync context, but I guess the

A second recommendation for Avalonia. It deserves the acclaim.

Later SNES games also used a timing check for region locking to identify PAL vs NTSC clock frequencies. The mod I did, nearly three decades ago, was to add a toggle switch with a second crystal that would change the clock frequency and allo

You should look at LINQ in C#/.net . The SQL-like syntax always has a function-first equivalent, that gets across this point fairly eloquently.

Almost certainly troves of stock footage. The type of exaggerated motion seen in these examples is very reminiscent of stock footage. And it is heavily textually annotated for search.

What is the ‘accepted’ view / model separation paradigm for Flutter? I do like the majority of Dart’s language choices.
