You're comparing the challenge of building game engines in the 90's with the more open-ended AGI research. It's different enough that I don't think it's valid to conclude he's less productive now based on impac

People point to the equivalent API costs to show that they are getting a great deal on the subscription, 10,000 dollars worth of tokens for 200 dollars. I do wonder if it's the other way around though - are the API users simply getting

I'm so jaded at this point. The AI translation from Bun to Rust doesn't bother me, I think it's interesting, but that this blog was so clearly written by LLM's is offputting for some reason. I think after having to inter

Because it is general purpose. We did not have the ability to create a single robot form which could do all of these minor, finicky, and opened ended tasks. Now that seems within reach. The nice property of humanoid robots is that the world

Hi Lunixbochs, thank you for the comment. One of my take aways from the article was that you were considering removing the ability for Talon to work on x11 in the future. I appreciate the correction. I understand that you're dealing wi

I also think it's unfortunate that Talon is closed source. You see this even in the support practices adopted, where all support is routed through a slack chatroom which doesn't let you view history older than I want to say a few

I read this yesterday wanted to raise awareness for it - https://nocoffei.com/?p=451 It describes the regression in accessibility software for Linux from x11 to Wayland. Unfortunately, judging by the pace of protocols being

To be fair, they're allegedly experiencing under attack by the Iranian government. I doubt Guix or OpenBSD would be able to sustain service under a similar attack, though granted there's a reason Cannonical is the target and not O

This strikes me as a good idea I've never seen articulated before. Something like a sticky scroll which accrues all off screen cursors, limited to some max to prevent things getting out of hand.

This is a valid concern imo, but I'm not too afraid about nvim itself being compromised. I do think it is risky to be depending on many plugins, which is why I'm hoping nvim can integrate more of the popular plugins into nvim prop

I am somewhat dismayed that contracts were accepted. It feels like piling on ever more complexity to a language which has already surpassed its complexity budget, and given that the feature comes with its own set of footguns I'm not su

Quality is not the issue. We should be more specific - Microsoft has been consciously employing dark patterns that they know will be harmful to users but they do not care because their incentives are misaligned. Employees of Microsoft have

It's possible I have no idea what I'm talking about, but my understanding is that nixos relies on fetching things from third party URLs which may simply die. I feel a bit misled by the promises of nixos, because I cannot actually

I don't know why Blade was decided on, but it was started by Kvark who worked on WGPU for Mozilla for some time. I assumed it would be a good library on that basis.

I harbor similar sentiments, but I understand why OpenAI, Anthropic, Zed, etc begin with a macOS version. They're able to target a platform which is a known quantity and a good jumping off point to Linux. I'm writing software for

I would have a very hard time accepting it to be true. They don't even strongly make the claim that it is true, they are correlating areas of the brain associated with memory as growing larger, and they are associating a larger brain a

The reason Wayland progress is slow is not technical. We have a coordination problem, people have differing priorities and views on what should be allowed. There are people opposed to things like a allowing windows to specify their own boun

This is from 2019, prior to the finalization of modules in the standard. I'd be interested in how many of these issues were unaddressed in the final version shipped.

I don't think Helix can currently match the C++ experience you get with VS Code. * Debugging is rough. There's experimental DAP support, but it isn't ready to be used. I was able to set breakpoints and step through the code,

Well, if the recent drop in views was due to adblockers, we now have some data about what percent of viewers block ads. There would have to be an effort to collect this data, and the view discrepncy is probably going to differ by genre of v

It is frustrating. Rolling back forever chemical regulations is analogous to reintroducing leaded gasoline. Should we be expected to debate and weigh the pros and cons of leaded gasoline? Some things require nuance, but some things are clea

I don't think the notion is always true of something being pushed on you automatically being bad for you. I agree that Windows is very user hostile, but something like mandatory updates where you cannot defer forever are good for less

I was not meaning to say that anyone was wrong for their technology choices. Personally I think Java is great and some of my favorite games are made in it. I'm just saying that I don't see jank or clojure for that matter catching

I think Jank will find its people, but I don't know how many of those people will be indie game developers. I'm sure some will be, but on the whole I don't think most indie game devs are clamoring for using clojure, if only i
