On my phone I was able to just touch-and-hold on the screen to move the camera. I assume on a PC you can just use the mouse to control the camera.

Then why not just ask the LLM to explain what LSP stands for?

It's not just habits. It changes the composition of your gut microbiome, hormones, etc. All of that can make changing your diet much harder than one might think.

This sounded weird to me at first until I realized that this exactly what I do when watching a movie with subtitles.

I'm wondering if going back to cheaper and less capable hardware will actually result in better games. Forcing creativity, and maybe (by necessity) dropping the constant push for higher fidelity graphics. I think that push for fidelity

> that seems backwards to me I'm not sure I completely understand which part you find backwards. Do you mean merging language runtimes and the OS is a bad idea, or that you think merging them would lead to more innovation? I can see

Yeah, I kinda feel like when you're mentoring people, you should let them drive. If you're going to do it for them, you might as well just record a training video.

This was already addressed: > But with LLMs generating 7101 commits in less than a month that isn't feasible. I don't think trying to understand LLM generated code is feasible for anything other than very small projects. IMO it

I kinda feel like using memorization techniques for things that require deeper understanding probably isn't the most efficient way to learn. IMO you want to be actively trying to map the new concepts to things you already understand, a

So your solution is to just read through all 1M+ lines of code?

What about just not installing sketchy extensions?

Given his work on Smalltalk, I suspect he means that he prefers the line between language runtime and operating system to be erased, and they be the same thing. I disagree though. While there are benefits to that approach, I feel like langu

But can't you continue to run older bytecode versions on newer JVMs? I think you can also specify the source version separately.

What I find especially weird is that I'm not sure I've ever heard anyone describe vim as a puzzle that's fun to solve. The most common sentiment is that it has a learning curve, but ends up being worth it.

> The author knows the orientation of his language better than anyone else. The author knows the intention of the language better than anyone else, but that doesn't mean it isn't especially game dev oriented.

I've thought it would be cool to have a console where later updates are installed on the game cartridge directly.

But what's the point of even releasing the next console? The current console generation has barely gotten started, and developers have barely taken advantage of the new hardware. Maybe they need to look at releasing a cheaper console a

The economic incentives will only come when enough people stop buying these kinds of games. Whether or not that will ever happen remains to be seen.

I think it's because further north the Sun is at a lower angle in the sky. So high frequency waves like UV (needed for Vitamin D production) get filtered out by passing through more of the atmosphere. Lower wavelengths like IR (heat) c

Unfortunately I've had websites strip out the house number in the "cleaned up" address.
