`EDITOR=mg` is a great find. I never knew of it before! One caveat I found is that it doesn’t support unicode (at least not in the default mac installation).

You can preallocate your data structures and control memory layout in Go. Also, despite GC there’s a sizeable amount of systems programming already done in Go and proven in production. Given how much importance is being deservedly given to

It looks like there’s Canada to cross before reaching the US. Am I missing something?

I’m not sure. I keep asking the LLMs whether I should rewrite project X in language Y and it just asks back, “what’s your problem?” And most of the times it shoots my problems down showing exactly why rewriting won’t fix that particular pro

I just asked Claude to create a memory system for itself for one of my projects. It created a file based utility written in Rust on its own. I offered it to use beads but it declined as beads is a task tracker and what we needed was a spec

No, that’s not what I said.

It’s a worthwhile answer if it can be proven correct because it means that we’ve found a way to create intelligence, even if that way is not very efficient. It’s still one step better than not knowing how to do so.

Glad you found it helpful! Most of it is distilled from High Performance Browser Networking ( https://hpbn.co/ ). It’s a very well organised, easy to follow book. Highly recommended! Unfortunately, it’s not updated to include

Here’s a conceptual background about how and why HTTP/3 came to be (recollected from memory): HTTP/1.0 was built primarily as a textual request-response protocol over the very suitable TCP protocol which guaranteed reliable byte s

I’d been looking for networking books meant for software developers for a while and just ordered “High Performance Browser Networking” and “Kubernetes Networking” a few hours ago. If only this was posted yesterday! I had read Andrew Tanenba

On-shore manufacturing requires an on-shore workforce. I’m wondering how this will sit with any company that wants to invest in on-shore manufacturing. I mean, what’s the big picture here?

I was considering a purchase, seeing as it is such a wealth of information and history. However, there are expletives in chapter titles! That’s a no-no for a collection-worthy book.

Subversion and lies are human behaviours projected on to erroneous AI output. The AI just produces errors without intention to lie or subvert. Unfortunately, casually throwing around terms like prediction, reasoning, hallucination, etc. onl

You're right about that. However, I find it easier to understand Go's concurrency model by starting with dataflow and then adding one more requisite (channels), than starting with classic fork-and-join and then making a bigger jump to messa

> Funny thing about Go is that as a compiled language, folks often need to send the source-code to the deployment servers to compile on them too. Doesn't seem like a situation precipitated by something in Go. I've found cross-compilatio
