iirc, it's a consumer co-op. So think of it as a vote of all users willing to pay for the membership to the service, who (correspondingly) are more likely to be power users/"activist" in the "activist investor"

yep! 90% of the time if i have a question about a project there's a discussions tab that can take my question with a nearly identical interface to stack overflow's, and I can be reasonably sure there will be contributors or mainta

silly question: what's "world" about what's being generated here? is the an actual abstract representation of physical space (like, eg, a game-engine style scene graph?) or does it just mean "this video generator is

So, in my professional work environment, which is a complex C++ app with long build times and lots of proprietary domain-specific knowledge, LLMs were worse than useless. Not totally surprising, but I originally had hopes for something like

so i managed to convince my company to try solid on a new project, pretty much on the basis of "this looks like react but solves many of our existing problems with react". since the JSX and project structure is basically the same,

Probably the most equivalent existing open source thing out there is ENet, which doesn't do encryption or detailed stats. If you've signed the steam NDA (which is free of charge iirc) you can check out the existing docs for the cl

The concern here is revenge-spam: someone takes your email and submits it to every mailchimp default form they can find automatically, and then your inbox is flooded with ostensibly legitimate email that you have to manually unsubscribe fro

I would say it's mostly a matter of use: In C you deal with void* or typecasts all the time, whereas in higher level languages it's much less common, either because the type system is smarter, or the constraints that it does have

If your intent is to improve the world, and not just act superior, I don't see what this accomplishes. Hear dissent without action long enough and it becomes noise.

it can still be an issue with memory even if it isn't as blatant as "out of memory". The easy example being a datastructure growing over time and getting slower to manipulate and query. This is a problem where being cavalier

yes and no? Unlike a traditional daemon, this isn't a system service that always runs in the background. The IDE (in this case atom) spins up the process and shuts it down when necessary, and then both sides communicate to each other u

I appreciate the extended support for LSP, but this seems to repeat the mistake VSCode made of requiring custom plugins for each backend you'd like to integrate. This increases the overhead for server authors and makes it less likely t

Securing multiuser linux is not an easy thing. Even if you set process limits, restrict permissions, etc. you can still be very easily hit with a priv escalation bug in a utility you allow users to run or even in bash itself.

Powershell is primarily a repl to a homogeneous .NET-based set of tools, which doesn't describe Unix very well. If you want a type-safe repl that interacts with all the handy tools written for the text-stream-only Unix world you'r
