I understand you'd like to believe that. But it looks like you're simply wrong. For example, here is the translation produced by Google Chrome of the Chinese version of the page on Bezout's Theorem. https://zh.wiki

You shouldn't respond lazily like that. The point is that the quality of a wikipedia page is positively correlated with the number of editors working on it.

Agreed. I'm the author of a fairly popular dev environment project. Every so often you get people turning up enraged because I chose a name that some other project once used. In the situation I'm talking about it makes even less s

I wonder whether it will have a flat namespace that everyone competes over or whether the top-level keys will be user/project identifiers of some sort. I hope the latter.

For some subjects, it's appropriate to host multiple versions of articles written natively in different languages. But for other subjects, for example science and mathematics, it does a huge disservice to non-English readers: it means

Yes fair enough my wording wasn't great. And we can add cpython to your list... But the provided type stubs for those libraries make the resulting user experience the same as if they had types. Does Django ORM have a good typing experi

In the case of Claude Code the hook feature is ideal for this so I could imagine the designers deciding that it is more appropriate to put the user in control. That said I think I do agree with you that -- given Python's fairly unique

Python has static typing unless you don't add any types. The vast majority of reputable Python codebases nowadays use static typing rigorously. If you don't, you should. To enforce it when coding with an agent you can either tell

If I were to stop using tmux, the things I would need to replace are: 1. zoom-pane (temporarily make one pane be the only pane) (also can someone please add this to vscode!) 2. keybindings to navigate focus between panes according to their

This looks exactly like something that I've been saying to myself that I want! Installed, and already used to transcribe two meetings. At the moment I think that I'm going to carry on using this. Keep going, it looks great!

A lot of people don't realize that you can completely change the vscode UI. All the side bars in particular - just get rid of them. You're left with a blank screen on which syntax-highlighted code appears with LSP and either the

I symlinked my vscode settings into the cursor config directory and the transition was strictly additive; everything worked exactly the same as before, with two exceptions so far: a .NET extension wasn't supported, and Cursor recently

Lack of comments seems like a big one seeing as it's so widely used for "configuration". It's a big enough downside that VSCode and others have violated it via ad-hoc extensions of the format. The comma rules introduce d
