Yeah after I read this I looked at the "code". It's a lot of placeholder.cpp with int main(){return}; This is so very sketchy.

I tried the demo. One thing I've noticed is it's sometimes hard to know what operation clicking or dragging something will do (or has done sometimes). I'm not sure what would help other than showing like a pie menu before car

I watched the video. I think I've been wanting something like this recently but there's not really a name for this sort of thing that I know of. Relatedly, I've been working on a step-by-step solver/calculator but I just

Even if the research is flawed I'm happy they are trying this. They are taking advantage of LLMs to have less rigid tests and also give feedback. I think there is more potential applications possible with combining LLMs with reference&

I like the goal of this. As expected, I don't really understand the math/concept of this. It sounds like it caches some neural network activity and exports it to be run later. So I suppose this can't be used for things like i

I don't really know what outerframe frame is. I tried to understand from the video and the blog but I'm still not sure what it is. Is it like a web browser but instead of DOM, HTML and JS you have Swift and SwiftUI running in a sa

No, it's just a calculator app. So I guess it's not that crazy of a way to use those together but it sure seemed like it would be before I started tried it.

Congrats on your game it reminds me both of SimCity on the SNES and SimCity 2000 (pc). I'm also using a cursed stack (deno + pyodide) and it's awesome! Everything works surprisingly well and I can do my Python experiments in a not

It's kind of funny that Modular is getting acquired by a hardware company considering what it's founder has said repeatedly in interviews and articles about how those companies fail to make AI stacks. * https://www.modu

No. As I understand it, the Raw backed just gives you a Window with input handling and you have to embed something like Skia, WebGPU for the graphics. So basically you have make your widget library yourself. Now you can just start a server

I'm happy to see this I see that this provides CEF, Webview and Raw * backbends but it would be nice if there was also a launch in browser option (like WebUI has). To me that has the best tradeoffs if you want to avoid the mess that is

There's also just shipping with a Web interface that opens in a browser (like Jupyter, or WebUI apps). Plus there's the option to use the system Webview like Deno Desktop (this), Tauri and Electrobun do by default. So thankfully w

Deno actually has had a built in compile to binary feature * I've used it before a few times. * https://docs.deno.com/runtime/reference/cli/compile/

Scope being determined by indention makes it easier to paste things in the wrong scope and not notice.

Just adding my respect for the team behind KDE. I left KDE for more resource friendly desktops and window managers around the KDE 4 transition. Then in the last couple of years came back. It's definitely the most feature complete and s

I know there are people that are used to the indention based scope but that has a real problem when it comes to copy/pasting code. I think a alternative that still looks pretty clean is to do like Ruby and Julia and have the function&#

I'm one of those people that prefer vscode (actually I'd prefer just about any editor with a UI designed within the last couple of decades over emacs). Lately I've been thinking about working though a nice Lisp book just beca

This is great news! Hister sounds like a idea I had years ago but gave up on after running into issues with index size taking up way too much storage. Long ago I've used Searx and really liked it but after some point didn't see th

I also like their AI Overview (though just like all the other LLMs it confidently tells me wrong info all the time). Still I miss when Google was a good information retrieval system where you could give it a string of text and it would find

This is my first time hearing about Electrobun it sounds like it could be a good alternative to electron. Their site mention CEF bundling as an option has anyone tried this?

This looks really impressive. How hard was it to implement this in typescript?

Qt Bridges might be better if your project can use the `Qt Design Studio Enterprise license`. Otherwise Slint looks like the better option. Not that I'd use either when I can just make a Web based UI most of the time and be done with i

The link says litehtml is C++. I can't tell if it exposes an FFI (I bet not) Of course blitz doesn't expose a FFI either and also if you need anything interactive you have to use the dioxius framework or implement you own APIs for

I like to watch 3blue1brown too but I think it's a bit of an exaggeration to say his topics are accessible to normal folks. From my perspective I think it's more realistic to say he makes videos that shows you the beauty in math w

I've been keeping my eye on mojo. Honestly though the thing I least like about Python is it's syntax. Someone else here is bringing up Julia. Which I think is a fine language but the compiler error messages and the library documen

No, sorry, I wasn't referring to any library. I just meant a UI I made out of HTML, JavaScript and CSS.

I remember looking into GUI libraries for Python a while back and this one and qt came up. However I ended up settling on making a Web UI served via FastAPI. I'm still happy about that decision but this one sounded really nice back the
