I understand that making a game engine is often at odds with actually making a game, but does anyone know of good literature on building one from scratch? Ideally something like crafting interpreters but for an engine. It’s been on my list

I’m a very active climber, and record a lot of my climbs. I think at a glance there are two things that would make me hesitant to start using this. Firstly, my gym rotates sets weekly and re-recording each wall each week seems repetitive. S

I feel like half of what I do on HN is talk about Kagi. I switch to Kagi in 2023, and haven't looked back. Between vim keybinds for navigating search, explicit AI opt-in, the ability to curate search (block sites, increase others), and

I've tried a handful of smartwatches, and own a Pebble 2 Duo. While I'm interested in picking up a newer Pebble device (hopefully with a bit nicer build quality), I've found my sweetspot to be a Garmin. I bought a Forerunner

I do think this style of working is where software engineering work is heading. This style is essentially exactly what my workflow is today using _insert agent harness here_ + plannotator[0]. Linear also recently rolled out something very s

Kagi has been one of my all time favorite products. It has enriched my search experience drastically. One of my favorite features I don't see talked about enough is the keybindings. Using vim keys for navigating search results is such

I'll second climbing gyms. My entire core group of friends in my city (that weren't already friends prior to my moving here) are people I met from the climbing gym or yoga classes at the climbing gym. Its a great space to meet new

I quite like Zed, I've consistently driven it for months at a time. But there are two things that add enough friction that over that month or so I end up bailing back to one of my other editors (vscode/neovim). The search experien

I’ve got nearly 10 months left on my yearly subscription, I wonder what that means for my access.

I grew up playing the games, and still have my copy of Yellow and Red. I fell of the wagon somewhere around Gen VI, the games just got to easy. It became clear to me that Gamefreak was just throwing in the towel and gave up making interesti

I went down the same path last week, and found Zigbook to be a very poor resource for learning. +1 for ziglings, that's been my favorite so far

How does bun compare? Does it have similar features as well?

That's been my attitude as well. I'm not convinced they'll stay cheaper for long, and when I say "cheaper" its marginal. Cost of the ride is the similar, but it seems there is no tip built into the price yet.

I live in a city that has had Waymo's (via Uber) for a while now and I have done a complete 180 on them. Not only are they usually cheaper than a traditional Uber, but they drive far more defensively, and don't come with the socia

You’re not. Everytime I see him on Twitch I have to do a double take.

I did not know this was a project that was in progress, and its quite exciting. I love Godot, and am quite fond a Zig as well. I'll be keeping my eye on this.

Kagi has been one of the biggest value adds to my online life in a long time. Paying for the Kagi ultimate plans gets me access to the latest LLM models, and an incredible customizable search engine with a large focus on privacy. The Orion

I've been using a mix of Claude and Deepseek via the Kagi assistant to great success. Usually adding relevant sections of the docs alongside my question and reminding it to use svelte 5 syntax.

It is workflow dependent for sure. I used to use aliased commands (still do sometimes), but I find that the muscle memory of lg (opens lazygit tui) -> a (git add -A) -> c (git commit -m "..." -> enter to be easier for me

LazyGit is one of my favorite pieces of software. I use it everyday, I love how seamlessly it fits into my work flow. The fact that it outputs all of its commands has helped me form a deeper understanding of git and what it’s doing under th

I actually have a very glue and duck taped solution for this. But I'd love if there way a tool to auto expand the "Load more..." button present in PRs with lots of conversations/commits. Everytime I refresh the page on a

Meanwhile html tags in JSX/TSX files still do not autocomplete/close. Speaking as someone who used Zed for nearly 7 months, it seems like should be prioritizing features that will make the editor more usable. I’d be excited to go

I had tried and failed multiple times to start using Vim (after using Vim binds for a while), and actually failed the transition right before my 6 month stint with Zed. It was actually this post[0] from the creator of Gleam [1] that brought
