Depends on the machine you’re targeting. I do embedded Linux and ram usage is a major concern, same for other embedded applications. I’m partying like it’s the 90s, on a 32-bit processor and a couple hundred MB of ram.
Tig is a nice and long-maintained git tui you might enjoy, then! If nothing else maybe for inspiration
It’s interesting how internet backlashes can be large enough to move the needle: ring breaking with flock is evidence of this. Yet simultaneously the internet represents the opinions of a very small and vocal minority.…
Since we're talking about GitHub Copilot I'll lodge my biggest complaint about it here! The context window is stuck at 128k for all models (except maybe Codex): https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/264153 and…
I know this is a dead thread, but... How do so many people justify buying the new redesign? I mean it came out after the CEO went in front of the world and gave two nazi-like salutes, then did DOGE! Do they buy his…
The new model Y AWD non-performance does 0-60 in 4.6 seconds! The performance version is ~3.3; Ioniq 5 AWD is 4.6 and the N is 2.9 (!!!). For comparison the latest Corvette does 0-60 in 2.9 and the Z06 in 2.6. These…
This is a part of why I (sometimes, depending) still use Aider. It’s a more manual AI coding process. I also like how it uses git, and it’s good at using less context (tool calling eats context like crazy!)
This reminds me: When I was at a newish job (like 2 months?) my manager said I "speak more in a Brittish manner" than others. At the time I had been binge watching Top Gear for a couple weeks, so I guess I picked it up…
Many of us just don't use JSON in our day jobs, weird I know, but true. The only thing I use JQ for at work is parsing the copilot API response so I remember what the model names are - that's it! TBH, I could just skip…
If you really think this, `baby` is an apt name! Internet, Smartphones, and social media will all be more impactful than LLMs could possibly be... but hey, if you're like 18 y/o then sure, maybe LLMs is the biggest.…
The FCC doesn't enforce very strongly, mudduck and others like him have been killing CB channel 6 (and sometimes 19) for like 2 decades and nothing has been done nor will be done.
There's also opencode which is a fork(?) of Claude Code that runs on any model: https://github.com/sst/opencode And of course, not the same, but Aider still exists and is still a great tool for AI dev. It's interesting…
I wonder if this can work with OpenCode (Claude Code fork which allows for other model providers: https://github.com/sst/opencode)? I really don't like being tied to a particular provider or model, switching models has…
Wild take lol, I was recently unemployed and once I started facing the very real possibility that I'd have to go work at the local sawmill (or UPS) for $20/hr I was willing to do almost any humiliation ritual these…
Hyundai/Kia use a traditional 6-speed auto in their hybrids. I drive one, the engine stays at a few RPM stepping points during most driving (it likes ~1600RPM, ~2200RPM, and ~3600RPM). I had a Prius previously, and I…
YUP! This is why I've settled on Aider and it's "IDE integration" (watches all files for comments that end in "AI!", which then invokes the AI). I can then use it with whatever editor I prefer. I view the vscode…
Folks don't want to hear it, but our careers are based more on luck than any of us would like. I avoided the first big round of layoffs at my last company. How? By being so overwhelmingly awesome and valuable that they…
Wait, what’s wrong with just staying on emacs? I’ve been using it as my daily (systems&os dev) for over a decade. I find when I use vscode that most features have an emacs equivalent. Am I missing out on something in…
Huh, I guess my 401(k) has already been mistreated. I made most of the money I have for retirement when I worked at Intel, and seeing the lawsuit is really interesting/concerning. Guess it's time to roll over the 401(k)…
This reminds me of my first internship, I was running a test suite and filling out a web form every week. It was never mentioned in any meetings or other comms. After about 3 months of doing this, I asked my manager why…
Another reason to at least learn the default tooling is that often I find myself SSHing to another machine which has only the barest of default packages installed (often busybox, sometimes just a stripped-down docker…
IME it's not that bad. My entire network failed when I was looking for work: either everyone was still at my old employer whom I didn't want to return to or they were also out of work. I don't have much online presence,…
I got hired by directly applying via a company's website; it was my 11th application and my first that wasn't a moonshot (nvda/valve/etc). It was in late 2023 (very bad market), and I didn't have any connections to the…
This is me, I'm a renter and my complex will never install chargers. I've tried, it's a no-go. That said, 50MPG vehicles are common these days. My '07 Prius gets 48, measured, a newer Camry/Accord/Sonata hybrid will get…
I'm a simple man, and did something similar but with bash+mosquitto+imagemagick running on a Kindle. That's boring/been done, but what I want to talk about is screen burn-in. I've been displaying slight variations of…
