That’s super interesting, I had no idea, but I just meant malloc’ing huge chunks of memory at a time and freeing it all at once.
Just wait until they figure out how to use arena/stack-based memory.
The core idea seems to be to map shortcuts to sequences of characters. My experiences suggest that this has promise. Using normal QWERTY, I currently type 160 wpm on average at 95%+ accuracy. I can get up to 180-190 if…
Why are standups even a thing? Like, what is wrong with my reasoning here? Meetings are maximally efficient when the exact set of people who all need to talk to each other are present, and no more. In a team of 7, only…
Is this tutorial interface (navigation, diffs, files/downloads at each step) custom made? It's pretty nice for this kind of format.
Stupid question, but without any video support at all, how do you even install the software you need to use it as a headless server?
I tried this. It is basically a slightly improved VSCode at this point. Basically, most the slowness/bulkiness of IDEs does not come from the text editing portion.
“Even though I'm never expecting my game to read an empty string in from an s-expression, I didn't want that to be a limitation of the parser.” This thing is never going to ship. Coming from someone who has written an…
Is this the bash dude?
I love vim and have never met someone who used it more fluently than me. Yet I find it lacking. I can never get IDE features like code navigation and completion to really work. I use YouCompleteMe like everyone else but…
If I’m understanding you correctly, for purposes of free will and moral responsibility, the details underlying the ‘control’ people have don’t matter—all that matters is that they change their behavior in response to…
I find the 'control' part of this iffy. People's actions are caused by their thoughts, feelings and beliefs, but their thoughts, feelings and beliefs are themselves caused by various other things. This is why I think…
The problem I have with relating consciousness to free will is that consciousness seems to me to be about experiencing your thoughts, not controlling or exerting them. Sentience has a subjective quality to it, but it’s…
> The Frankfurt cases debunked the full principle of alternate possibilities (PAP), so I disagree that PAP is why people care about free will. I didn’t know about Frankfurt or PAP. Thanks for telling me! As far as why…
> Free will is just as real as cars. This is true. They're both abstractions. I think the important property we ought to care about is how easily each abstraction breaks down, in the sense of leading to an untrue…
“Quantum mechanics disproves determinism and therefore disproves free-will-skepticism” is an asinine argument I hear parroted everywhere and it drives me bonkers. Ok, say quantum mechanics is at play and your cells…
For what it's worth, if they'd just made the feature opt-in, I actually think it's a great feature. I'd love a Triplebyte page that I can link to instead of a resume (that's what I originally imagined when I read the…
Thank you for not incorrectly saying "that begs the question of..."
I don’t understand this mentality tbh. Why do you need the ability to drop into any standard install and go? Don’t you use one computer as your main machine?
You’re right.
Here are some serious outstanding problems in software: * Considering how fast modern computers are, software is so damn slow. * Software frequently stops working. When it does, the process to diagnose the bug and fix…
