The open ledger and profit-sharing for contributors might be an even more interesting innovation than the IDE itself. I like my existing IDE but Rune looks very nice so I'll certainly give it a whirl.

If it's worth writing about, it's worth using your own words instead of cranking out pages of AI slop. I'm not willing to evaluate these claims because it's so obvious you started with our conclusion and prompted an LLM

It's not software; it's the fact that most managers/administrators are not software developers (although they may have some programming ability). so they stand in teh same relationto their development team as cusomers complai

Another day, another Sony hate thread. It's not that I endorse Sony's legal/business practices, but rather than these sort of hyper-asymmetric claims are the norm in modern commercial contracts. Perhaps its coincidence that t

My immediate reaction to his The doomsday virus has a first-mover advantage over the vaccine. The time that people start to drop dead from the virus is the time you start to make and distribute a vaccine. Even if AI can design and synthesi

You can keep folding it and it keeps the same aspect ratio. Scaling becomesa simple matter of multiplying everything by 2^+/-n.

Proportions absolutely matter for displays, both for aesthetic comfort and for efficient scaling. Most of the world uses ISO216 and its pleasing 1:sqrt(2) proportions. Leveraging aspect ratios with wide acceptance is a win both psychologic

I like the concept and the development choices seem sensible even if they're not my favorites (although I think missing Python is a mistake). The text feels very LLM generated though, and I reflexively discount the value of anything pr

Historically murals in that area have been planned, agreed with the property owners, and funded by local nonprofits or donation drives. They're community projects, not renegade takeovers. Using scare quotes to delegitimize it is a chea

But that's pretty much what that institution does. It might not seem that impressive because it's a neighborhood rather than a city- or state-level institution, but they've been going for decades and organize things like mura

I am not arguing in favor of corporate apps or smart TVs (which I would not want to buy either). I'm just looking at things from the perspective of the unfortunate person doing tech support, not their corporate overlord.

It's funny how you keep trying to drag in other examples to support your position. Am I suppose to ignore the history and special great power support for both places in Asia and imagine that their economies just naturally developed tha

The mystery is whether AI solved it on its own or just took the final step using a lot of novel work done by a small number of mathematicians who were using AI to test their ideas incrementally. there's a big difference between oneshot

Of course those are possibilities, as is having a landline. People pranking tech support lines is also a possibility and I suspect a more common one.

The end state is aesthetically pleasing. The game, not so much, I found the cuts on the tiles unpleasant to deal with (especially the ones that shaved ~2 points of ~20 point text) although I solved it in the end. I did like that once you h
