will always upvote this post when I see it virtual threads (stackful coroutines) in Java is most of the reason why I’m defaulting to it nowadays instead of C#, Rust, etc

Binary Ninja seems way ahead in terms of UX, as a hobby reverser. It's my default as well.

That’s funny cause I feel the opposite: LLMs can automate, in a sloppy fashion, building the first trivial draft. But what remains is still thinking hard about the non trivial parts.

Nothing wrong with the "creating products that prioritize user experience over features" - or more accurately what Jobs said: create products that start with the user experience and the user’s needs first and then work your way to

Biggest issue is the lack of free speech. It’s a platform with an agenda, which is a huge red flag.

Please delay it indefinitely. The OS with the worst security combined with a queryable LLM recording everything you do? Yeah, no.

Hehe yeah, same when I think about it… I guess best thing to do is buy on launch and update every 2-5 years.

Same here. Once worked with a guy who was a huge Microsoft fan, calling Macs and Linux-based workstations “nothing but toys”. Naturally I couldn’t help but laugh when he couldn’t work for 20 minutes due to a forced windows update and then a

I'm on a 2019 Intel MBP, so I have not experienced developing on ARM yet. I though docker had full support for ARM, and I assumed it did emulation of amd64, no?

Yes, I've just seen lots of people in the comments not seeing the value in the machines Apple create, which slightly annoys me. Because they are very fine computers. And as most people with laptops, we own them due to convenience ;) --

I find the hate towards MacBooks interesting, and more so in the comments than the actual video. After having used a lot of computers, both laptops and desktops, I genuinely believe there are no better laptops than MacBooks that bring build

I have a couple of issues that keeps me using Safari. First off is the insane battery usage. It’s like 2x battery usage of Safari. Then it’s all the noise like Pocket, sign in this and register that. And then a very specific problem that ha

I’ve tried using Orion but I found it very slow and does not work fully as it should with a single chrome plugin I tried. Back to Safari!

Hey again. Tested .NET 8 and blazor again, and it wins… I mean it wins by so much that I now default to using .NET and C# for any task web related. Having components be SSR’d by default and then using SignalR later on by interactivity deman

I am a fan of Go due to the focus on simplicity in the language... but why Go for game dev? The purpose of the language was to tackle backend services previously written in C++ focusing on junior developers, not game dev. It's not real

Do you think that the 20% productivity boost might be solely because you now just have one language to work with? That's what I'm thinking, and that's why I'm personally keen to learn and use Blazor instead of the usual

Good point! I want to enjoy Go, but I haven't really found the places for it... I usually come back to C# and C++ for high level and lower level problems after exploring and using modern/hyped alternatives like Go and Rust for a w

Interesting take! Although, writing client sided code is not really suited at all in Python due to the horrendous performance. That can be accepted when we're waiting for IO anyways behind a server, or when a new developer is learning

Well for starters, getting hold of a modern JDK seemed to be impossible the last time I tried (which was a couple of years ago on Windows). If I took the risk of downloading from the shady website that looked like it was last updated in 200

Good point regarding .NET! The .NET CLR / VM is clever in that way. Regarding your experience with readability in Go, I have to agree in some way because the known (and controversial) explicit error handling, but what you may realize s
