Has anyone noticed how poorly tools like claude code (the main one I tried) themselves are working? You'd expect software from company with an infinite AI allowance to be unattainably excellent, instead it lags, hangs, flickers, and fe

Currently it sounds like it's been through an allpass/comb filter. Complex parts, while spectrally there, do not make much sense as a real sound. Probably audio analog of the "finger salad" of early image models. I do no

If language supports comments and LLM is allowed to write them (or docstrings, or any such), there go your tokens. Plus, they will strongly "pull" the context when LLM parses it back, to the point of overriding your instructions (

Hardly anything in current TV pricing makes any sense. 763€ for LG OLED42C5, while cheapest current gen iphone is pushing 1k€. If, as is asserted, telemetry is such a golden ore, getting uninterruped access to it would surely cover the cost

These are great, thanks! That GBA "butano" compiles with -fno-rtti -fno-exceptions, so it is not a C++ engine/library according to C++ standard! It is, however, an impressive piece of work. The ESP32 SDK (I lol'd at your

I am confused, what do you mean? What OS forces you to download whole file over NFS or SMB before serving read()? Even SFTP does support reading and writing at an offset.

Mounting WebDAV -- if you are in a situation, where you have to do it (e.g. own^W^W^Wnextcloud) is such an adventure. Everything - mac, win, linux - supports WebDAV. You mount and it works! Then you notice HOW it works: files are downloaded

C libraries are excellent for embedded! You can write libraries like SQLite, that can run on bare metal and only require a few external functions from the platform, while still being valid C library! You cannot make it in C++, because any v

Thank you for putting it this eloquently. Even stranger, for me, is the current prevalence of collective shunning, the so called cancel-culture, that is triggered by the most diverse reasons, but seemingly never buy the negativity and toxic

For big, fixed environments like Qt — sure. For embedded? Please no. Basic is good. Feel free to reimplement C++, your C library still will not have: most of STL as a dependency; unwind tables in all code (including C!); ctor/dtor arra
