I've come to expect that, every time I update and OS or app to a newer version, it's going to be slower and more bloated. Why can't it be the opposite? Why can't I expect an update to run faster than the previous…
I feel like they are a workaround to GUIs being slow and bloated Electron apps. But I wish we'd just make fast GUIs instead of giving up and building TUIs instead.
My biggest complaint about ChatGPT is how slow their interface is when the conversations get log. This is surprising to me given that it's just rendering chats. It's not enough to turn me off using it, but I do wish…
Giving the AI an actual programming language (functions + objects) genuinely does seem like a good alternative to the MCP mess we have right now.
Demented AIs running amock is just what we need in this day and age.
We've recently adopted Zig at a few systems at our company but I think maybe "cool" or "new" is the wrong metric? I view Zig as a better C, though that might be subjective.
It is not yet ready but the master branch has an initial draft. https://github.com/kaitai-io/kaitai_struct_compiler/commits/... It would be premature to review now because there are some missing features and stuff that…
Just seeing this now. The thinking was to minimize the the places where a secret could leak. So with an HTTP client, I would think at the lowest layer possible. I don't think of it as a way to eliminate secrets leaking.…
It's not C but we have sponsored a Zig target for Kaitai. If anyone reading this knows Zig well, please comment because would love to get a code review of the generated code!
Not an answer, but I do wish there was a low level primitive and a corresponding high level language construct to pass around secrets. Something like: my_secret = create_secret(value) Then ideally it's an opaque value…
I think this is spot on. A document metaphor would have made a Wave a lot easier to understand.
If you are breaking something up for "long" and "short" you're optimizing for the wrong thing. You don't care about code being short for its own sake or long for its own sake right? Ultimately, you're going to revisit…
I think it's a valid question, but it's better to assume they had their reasons and try to understand why before drawing conclusions.
And even if you fall under the first category, I find it hard to believe that the performance bottleneck is solved by using Vercel and SSR. With all the other crazy shit people are doing (multi-megabyte bundle sizes,…
how about "NotExpert"
Yes we have. I don't know why you got so much pushback. Right now innovation moves at a slow pace the web nobody seems to realize the what-if. The W3C announces some incremental improvement to JS feature and everyone…
I find if I read the source code of a dependency I might add, it's common that the part that I actually need is like 100 LOC rather than 1500 LOC. Please keep preaching.
And if you really do? Print the percentage to stdout.
I generally love AI. But I lament these blurred lines of reality. Is this photo real? Was this reply ChatGPT or did they actually write it? It makes me feel uneasy.
I can't remember who I read this from (it might have been Alan Kay) but they basically said the web browser should have been an address bar with the ability to run any sandboxed applications in the screen below. They…
I customized the hell out of my keybindings. I might be in the minority though! I was trying to give examples of (stupid) little points of friction that might prevent someone from taking the leap.
The vision sounds interesting but I think if they have two challenges they will need to overcome to compete in the IDE space 1) Their LLM integration needs to be at the quality of Cursor and VSCode to pull people away…
I don't think it is because it just requires that you write frontmatter in YAML which is pretty human readable and common in certain markdown formats. Your notes are still in markdown.
But exactly. The one thing you care about in a gym app is getting into the gym!
If get a chance to read some Elixir/Erlang code you'll see that pattern matching is used frequently to assert expected error codes. It does not mean ignore errors. This is a common misunderstanding because unfortunately…
