The problem is, until laptops sold at Walmart or Best Buy start coming with Linux pre-installed as an option, adoption will never happen. Installing an aftermarket OS is just an incredibly unrealistic expectation from the average user. Micr

Yes? Isn't that how trust works? You stop trusting those that don't deserve it. Unless you're a complete isolationist and/or sociopath living off the land in the woods, you need some level of trust in others.

It’s really come to this? As if accepting the 4 different data sharing Eulas required to install windows wasn’t enough, now apps need to DRM themselves…

It did seem like an odd decision maybe they thought better of it.

Been using Nvidia+Wayland for years now, even on an optimus laptop. I'm convinced that many these people saying Nvidia has serious issues on Linux must be (by no fault of their own) going by habit and downloading the driver installer .

But ladybird is ditching c++ for swift?

Do people ever think you are staring at them? You still have to point your face somewhere, just with a laptop screen it’s more likely obvious.

I use AI every day. But 5-10k loc is a huge claim, ai or not. It’s just too bad you can’t back it up - nobody ever can because sorry “closed source” (ironic considering these llms having been trained on open source…) Let me guess, it’s an A

It seems like the share a lot of the same goals but my impression is Poetry is much slower to pick up on standards. It’s normal to use uv with a project now that doesn’t have any [tool.uv] section in pyproject.toml at all but every poetry p

Pydantic got the re write in rust treatment so de/serialization is crazy fast now.

I suggest you try uv and ruff and then see if you still think only companies the size of meta can provide quality tooling.

Let’s see the GitHub project for an easy 10k line day.

The answer to all these complaints is simple: use APL. Or rather these days, BQN.

It’s because the people doing rote programming with them don’t think they are doing rote programming, they think it’s exceptional.

This is incredibly cool. I love seeing local first software starting to make a comeback. Github is becoming painful to use, even on a fast connection.

They are probably really good at React. And because that ecosystem has been in a constant cycle of reinventing the wheel, they can easily pump out boilerplate code because there is just so much of it to train from.

This might just be the long term effects of a platform dominated by people who generally value hardware over software.

Good for them. It is becoming tiring paying rent seekers to run our own software.

Yea wtf is that chart, it literally skips 4 cpu generations where it shows “massive performance gain”. Straight to the trash with this post.

Right. “To be useful” includes leveraging language servers, which they aren’t going to write from scratch. So what’s your point?

For what?

This is how I felt. A blog article 34 years later about a interaction so trivial that Jobs probably forgot it even happened 10 seconds later. I cringe a little. But hey whatever makes people happy.

And it's not yet another editor running in a web browser which is really, really nice.

Yes. It’s super opaque. SqlAlchemy is one of those libs I want to like but the docs just make it too difficult.

Zed defaults to a font weight a little thin for my taste, increase it and it will probably solve your issue. I don’t see anything really wrong with the first screenshot, might just be a matter of what you are used to.

I was a sublime user as well, Zed is the first editor to get me off it. It’s nice using an editor that gets modern improvements again. The writing was on the wall for ST when LSPs happened and support for them was relegated to a community p

Java is the original “it needs an ide” language. Always has been. If you’re not using jetbrains, eclipse, or whatever other monstrosity to write Java you’re going to have a bad time. I wouldn’t consider this a mark against Zed, I’d wager ve
