I am an incredibly non-violent person, but have a toddler has really made me work hard to understand the difference in what associations we attach to "violence" as adults. I try to help him understand this slowly, but a lot of &qu

Well said. The problem is that vibe coding can paper over bad engineering practices for awhile. And results look good, and when you raise concerns people look at you like you're dumb and trying to slow things down. But the underlying b

I went full circle on AI. For an in-editor experience, Zed is top notch. But I've found I actually prefer just to go back to claude code + Zed.

The "problem" it might solve for me, personally, is having a systems-level language that matches my personal style a bit better than Rust or other more modern systems level languages. I know they're putting a lot of weight on

Low value comment, so I apologize, but it's funny to note how many bottleneck articles there are now as a result of AI adoption. Lots of new bottlenecks.

`uv` helps but it's new, and I don't think it has the same mindshare yet on "I just globally want to install this thing that needs an interpreter/runtime", so Python probably just doesn't come first to mind.

This probably has a simple answer, and is something I can easily google. But it's always been in the back of my mind, what optimizations would be possible if you took actual python code and forced 100% type annotation. Could you meanin

Everyone says they want the weird more personal internet back, then this is what we get when someone does a weird internet thing!

Having both floaters and visual snow, there is absolutely no way anyone would ever mix them up, though. Incredibly different experience.

Visual snow is different from floaters, though.

My point was more about the positive outcomes from these kinds of fines, rather than about _forcing_ corporate behavior change. If corporations are going to act like psychopaths, let's at least make them pay a tax for it with fines lik

LAN parties were an odd but super fun part of being a teenager at the time!

I dropped it in to replace zellij, and get better agent integration in the process.

Makes me think of the DuPont settlement with Rhode Island: https://www.law.com/article/almID/900005544259/ As a result, Rhode Island has some great followup and public health programs. It wasn't that muc

Yeah the big driver for it, from memory, was them offering on-site deployment.

Hallucinations were low hanging fruit in some ways. As someone working on a large-ish complex-ish distributed system that has to be maintained and support customers, it's still very high value to have Claude in the mix, but the core pr

Originally a lot of HDTV would present SDTV with black bars on the sides. People don't like it.

I selected vim. No quit available in application menu, I tried `!forcequit` from the command menu and nothing happened either.

Might want to think about installation. Suspicious of black box shell installations like that, and I'm on a laptop with restrictions. Looks like installation failed trying to write to places it shouldn't, but it's just pullin

I never liked the term "ricing" with window managers, but this is definitely veering into LLM ricing territory sometimes. And people are getting rich off of it.

I'm sure it's essentially a familiarity thing, but PowerShell and nushell is way too much typing for me.

I can't imagine even with the crazy salaries at frontier labs, staff costs make much of a difference.

The big hammers buy you more confidence and need less supervision. In pure task execution you _might_ smash the ant with a small surgical hammer, but if you absolutely need it smashed, that's when people still reach for the big hammer.

I think tokio does userspace threads running on a thread per core. At least by default.

All the cargo deps would be "upstream", and pulled on build.
