I've worked with many people over the years. A bunch of product people have struck out to make their own thing now that they can get a feedback loop going. I just keep in touch with people. They know my services are…
I've already done a handful of these gigs for early vibecoded products that had collapsed in on themselves. The scope of work was to stabilize the product and only make existing features work. The issues have all been…
Interfaces can still be expressed using vtables. You just have to write the vtable yourself rather than have the language do it for you. Also, Zig's tagged unions (enums with payloads in Rust) are really ergonomic and…
That is one theory of creativity. It is extremely far from proven.
Does your opinion change if they use it to train a commercial program to do a similar task?
Ideally you'll be working with the investors and leveraging their expertise and connections. If you're choosing an investor that you'll be working with for years, it's worth looking for things in addition to money.
Something akin to interfaces, but weaker. Right now people roll their own vtables or similar, and that's fine...I actually don't expect these to be added. But because of Zig's commitment to "everything structural is a…
I was also curious what direction the article was going to take. The showcase is cool, and the features you mentioned are cool. But for me, Zig is cool is because all the pieces simply fit together with essentially no…
Sure. That's pretty acidic wording, but I think it's fair to say they want more consumer market share and lock-in helps that. The original post's point was that by being more open they would encourage more software to…
We've diluted the term AI before. Eventually the hype will wear off and we'll call them LLMs, just like what happened to all the previous versions of machine learning or various expert systems. Vending Machines used to…
The only thing that works for me is separating things into very distinct "realms" and only having one realm open at a time. No exceptions. For example one realm is for communication. Slack, Browser, Email, and Calendar…
I guess that's kind of the point. You don't have to choose to be that kind of grown up.
It seems like the point being made is that because an LLM lives within the universe and can't store the entire universe, it would need to "reason" to produce coherent output of a significant length. It's possible I…
Honestly, on a non-toy project, build times with cgo are _brutal_. I agree with you usually, but when a build time on a beefy computer switches from under a second to >1min you notice it. Linters and IDEs get slow when…
He's an adult, let him make his own choices.
Does anyone have an example of a codebase that uses Design By Contract to an extreme extent? You really only get a sense of the power of patterns like this when you see that power abused. I've greatly enjoyed writing 2…
Since this thread is very general, I'd like to specifically request anything that'd help one dive into Model Theory. Everything I've found labeled introductory is very dense, and I feel like I'm missing some prereqs it…
I guess one question I'd have is why you think your brain is "operating properly". It's definitely perceiving and constructing a narrative out of those perceptions, but that happens differently for every brain and it…
This had absolutely nothing to do with the article. Why did you decide to spend your time bashing something you don't use unprompted?
Agreed. I'm going on strike.
I would definitely do so. I'm a single person who isn't looking to start a family, so I don't really use most of the money I make. It'd give me time to work on my more esoteric/mathy/experimental programming projects…
Does it work if you run `cargo clean` and then `cargo clippy` again? Clippy runs it's lints in an early pass of the compiler/checker. Many IDEs/editors will automatically `cargo check` under the hood to grab errors.…
Why can't they?
I guess one question is if you can tell the difference. Without reading the book from the youtuber, how would you know you wouldn't like it and it's not just prejudices getting in the way of you giving it a chance? If…
That's awesome! Thanks for the new framing of the algorithm. Lamport's reply seems unnecessarily dismissive. It's true that different framings and analogy are "weaker" than rigorous understanding. But they are also…
