With eframe, it does not re-render when idle, no. You need to have another thread that forces it to redraw on your own schedule. It will also redraw when an event occurs (mouse movement, keyboard presses, interacting with the application in

Here's Armin Ronacher describing his open-source "sloppy XML" parser that he had AI write with his guidance from this week: https://lucumr.pocoo.org/2025/6/21/my-first-ai-library/

Go's simplifications often introduce complexities elsewhere, however, as this article demonstrates with the complexities of correctness of a stringly-typed DSL. There's no free lunch here, and the compromises Go makes to achieve i

Anthropic's models do not come out looking good in this research. If this is an ad for Anthropic's models, it's not a particularly great one.

The Wikipedia data dumps [0] are multistream bz2. This makes them relatively easy to partially ingest, and I'm happy to be able to remove the C dependency from the Rust code I have that deals with said dumps. [0]: https://me

I would guess that they're running multiple instances of Claude Code [0] in the background. You can give it arbitrary tasks up to a complexity ceiling that you have to figure out for yourself. It's a CLI agent, so you can just giv

Google has never identified the logical error in a block of code for me. I could find what an error code was, yes, but it's of very little help when you don't have a keyword to search.

I'm for equal opportunity screwing: if they lose their jobs, it's only fair my job is at risk too - and given improvements in programming agents, it will be. The only way we're getting through this is by facing it together, n

I'm as much of a Rust advocate as anyone, but what does vibe-coding have to do with any of this?

I'd be careful with the branding - it sounds like an official Claude product. Maybe go with "Composer for Claude"?

An important note is that the models you can host at home (e.g. without buying ten(s of) thousand dollar rigs) won't be as effective as the proprietary models. A realistic size limit is around 32 billion parameters with quantisation,

But you can adjust the output of a LLM and still come out ahead in both time and mental effort than writing it by hand. Unlike a 3D printer, it doesn't have to be right the first time around to still be useful.

You are either a very fast producer or a very slow reader. Claude and Gemini are much faster at producing code than I am, and reviewing their code - twice over, even - still takes less time than writing it myself.
