To me the biggest upside would be terminal completion and discovery via help text. Sure you can always bounce to a search engine and bounce back, but I can imagine cases where you want a toolkit in front of you that you know how to use when

I didn't get it until I read your comment. I simply gave up.

The saying is confusing and I would suggest makes the opposite claim. It’s common in sports. You practice at an uncomfortable pace to normalize it, even making mistakes, because if you can’t practice at game speed you won’t be able to compe

On the other hand, as somebody not well-read in AI I found it to be a rather intuitive explanation for why pruning helps avoid the overfitting scenario I learned when I first touched neural networks in the ‘10s. Sure, this could’ve been a p

As best I can tell, the author understands that the async write-ahead fails to be a guarantee where the sync one does… then turns their async write into two async writes… but there’s still no guarantee comparable to the synchronous version.

Where do you usually look for a sale on Milwaukee? I got lucky finding a great bundle sale at a Home Depot once, I'd love any tips on where/when to look more specifically.

The spacecraft mechanics in sci-fi who are born today are auto gearheads. It is funny to think about something so romanticized where the modern day equivalent is comparatively mundane. At least, it is to me, I'm sure a lot of people sp

Just a note, because this comment made me curious and prompted me to look into it: Vite does use HTTP2 automatically if you configure the cert, which is easy to do locally without Caddy. In that case specifically there's no real reason

nix-alien used nix-ld under the hood. Why would you say it is worse, older (does this one really matter?), or not well maintained?

by JasonSage 2y ago
There’s also nix-alien which does this but tries to be more automagical.

Sounds like you would have had problems whether there was boilerplate-y code or not.

> Another red flag is boilerplate. I have to disagree. Boilerplate can simply be a one-time cost that is paid at setup time, when somebody is already required to have an understanding of what’s happening. That boilerplate can be the plat

Cars have crumple zones which a motorbike does not. A lighter car requires less work from the crumple zone to decelerate the car into non-fatal territory than a heavy car.

I’m assuming GitHub has a fair amount of database/cache overhead for most things, especially branches. I think that most things the web client sees are all database content and that there’s no usage of git/filesystem in any hot pa

By "Vite replacement" I mean "replacement in Vite". My wording was ambiguous, it can mean either.

I think it’s more accurate to call title this “… - A Better Webpack?” It’s a build tool that swaps an underlying Webpack process with a Rust-powered process which aims to be API-compatible. With the Webpack ecosystem. The Vite developers ar

I think it’s a great name, it really does describe the function perfectly. I got a huge smile when I saw it.

We are moving from Zod to TypeBox because there’s a lot of inflexibility in Zod’s extensibility story that we’re able to get past in TypeBox. After doing a deep-dive comparison, I’m left wondering why to ever choose Zod over TypeBox.

No, it’s $120 annual. It’s $144 when paying monthly, so the savings of $24 is the cost of two months.

That makes sense. I naively tried flakes for a nix-shell replacement for a couple environments, one was a node app with large node_modules dependencies and the other was a windows app I was running in a local wine root. In both cases re-eva

How do you handle flakes pushing an entire copy of the repo into the nix store? Is this not an issue for you somehow?

I think it could be some of both. By giving access to the chain of thought one would able to see what the agent is correcting/adjusting for, allowing you to compile a library of vectors the agent is aware of and gaps which could be exp

For certain there will be de facto community centers in open source games, but the fact that a group _can_ self-organize, self-fund, and self-moderate means that communities _will_. Mastodon is I think a good example of this in social media

I’m optimistic that as the opportunities come along, players will take them. Your argument sounds to me analogous to “everybody will just use Twitter/X because why would somebody want to pay to host a Mastodon instance with no particip

Open source means everything here. Let’s say that you want to be a tournament organizer and do tournament streams of an esport. You are going to use sponsorships and ad revenue to drive your profit, and you have a sponsor providing the priz

I’m interested in learning more about this. Obviously this is something I care about and want to be well-read in when presenting a case. I do know in League of Legends that there’s a lot more care and attention put into it, and frankly I su

I think you’re conflating unrelated things Servers can be community-run and centralized per league/community. See TF2 (more decentralized) and FaceIt (Counter-Strike) for examples of self-moderating communities than can exist outside o
