I like it. I think creating your own agent is the Hello World of agentic coding. Instead of Rust, I used D for mine.

Awesome, let's read what they have done! I open a new tab. To install the harness, first use npm... And tab is closed. No thanks.

In my own agent there's no code editor, just the chat session. I have not missed an integrated text editor.

Zed agent was so bad at using Ollama local models that I created my own agent to use instead. I think creating an agent is the hello-world of agentic coding, everyone is doing one. I have zed installed, but honestly I still use SublimeText

In principle I agree with you. The missing part of mathematics education, IMO, would be to focus more into developing the intuition of what something means, instead of the current focus on getting some (numeric) results.

That really sounds like the kind of people who will complain in university about being forced to study calculus. Natural consequence: Then they never grasped the concept of computational complexity. O(n) Vs O(n²)? They have n, what's

> Is a self updating static binary a reasonable solution? It's a reasonable antidote against DLL hell, so I would say yes, that's as close to an ideal solution as we can get.

Nah, it is only using 90MB of RAM in my PC. At the same time, Gmail is using 244MB. My average tab opened is about 30MB, so the difference is only 3 times the memory. Probably only the network connection struggles for a few seconds in my ph

Now I read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_lettering ... and I find it distracting by how wrong it is. It should say "Single stroke Gothic", or even better: mention Gorton directly. Instead, it

Your DB query rule goes against my experience. Sometimes longer and more complex queries run much, much faster. The users complain about "complexity", but when they see the performance comparison they change their minds.

Viruses are not newly appearing forms of life, they are co-depending on the already present forms of life and they reuse some of their machinery. Viruses are the opposite of starting from zero, they start from a functional organism and stop

Because the moment life first appears, it multiplies and fills all easily available niches, and any new life is outcompeted by the more evolved pre-existing organisms.

The 32GB issue is more about one internal factor: the wasteful reliance on Electron and other JS runtimes for UI, and two external factors: the very high price of RAM, and the increasing adoption of Linux. So they will make Windows run on 8

Not that different. AWS already has lots of AMI and docker are essentially image based. We would version whole images in something like git, and that's all.

I tried building a real app with AI. It took a week or two. The problem lies in convincing other people to use it. So far I am the only user. And, this is not a new experience. I have a utility to change the gamma ramp in a GPU, for windows
