There are still subscriptions that give access to both ChatGPT and Codex, but with a much smaller usage quota than before the change (which came at the same time as the end of the 2x promo). I couldn't find the equivalent in terms of c

Giving AI agents permission to do things on your behalf in your computer is obviously dangerous. Installing a compromised MCP server is really the same as installing any compromised software. The fact that this software is triggered by the

How is this different from a backdoor in, say, a Thunderbird extension? I've maintained an extension for Thunderbird and, when I was no longer interested in it, a guy pushed hard to take over the project after sending a few legitimate

No doubt excessive nesting is bizarre, although the end user might not notice (nested panels that fit in their parent are not visible). That's not a reason to have your entire OS break :-(

It has been fixed but a similar problem (with the same repro case) reappeared with a recent Windows update, only now when closing the popup.

So at least they should really work hard to not let a BSOD happen in case of excessive nesting of widgets. The repro case is actually the same than the one for a bug which was fixed 6 years ago, and it is straightforward (just nest enough p

It's crazy a such a simple script, which is actually the same as 6 years ago, can produce a BSOD in a deterministic way with the latest update of Windows. And nobody at MS seems to care about it.

CDuce was the result of my PhD thesis (about 20 years ago); mostly just a research prototype with enough engineering efforts to make it usable for small enough projects. It came after XDuce, which introduced the idea of building a functiona

According to Wikipedia[1], SQLightning -- a port of Sqlite using LMDB -- was 20x faster than original sqllight. It could thus be interesting to compare LiteTree with SQLightning. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light

I could have added reasonml to the list indeed, but reasonml really is (a different syntax for) ocaml.

Well, OCaml is indeed rather popular for implementing compilers for new languages (sometimes later bootstrapped), including ones which became rather popular. I can think of F#, Rust, Elm, Haxe, FlowType for instance.

Yes, well, I can imagine that under the assumption that people loose "faith" in Bitcoin, it's still possible to assign a "value" to the Bitcoin network, e.g. the hardware that makes it (miners and nodes) -- I wouldn

What's the value of the bitcoin network itself (its computing power?), and how does the holding of bitcoins give any right on this value?

Many files are taken from the OCaml compiler and then adapted, but changes seems a bit deeper than just a different syntax. It would indeed seem fair for the authors to at least make it clear in the toplevel README that the front-end (pars

Of course it feels less native than with F#, but we have created and used CSML ( https://github.com/LexiFi/csml ) specifically to allow our OCaml code base to interact with .NET.

I don't think so. Both bytecode and native evaluate right-to-left.

I guess Bucklescript aims at a smoother integration with the JS ecosystem, which means binding to existing frameworks rather than creating new ones (such as tyxml or Eliom). These are different approaches which make sense for different tar
