you really have to catch the moment to do this, and there must be someone else who is supportive of this idea. my mother recently got served a quite... disturbing video on Facebook. I won't get into details of the vid. what I can tel

depends. I, for one, take control of what I consume on social media. Bluesky's design allows this. YouTube also, if you turn off recommendations, lose watch history, and vet your subscriptions

I can imagine the world where this post gets more visibility through a funny regex error than actual equations :)

well, for me personally, "the" Zig project is not Bun but Ghostty, and it always has been. yeah, Mitchell is very pro-AI, but he is thoughtful, and he sometimes highlights the difference between Zig's and Ghostty's appro

moreso, it's the only harness that maps close to Neovim philosophy of "everything is a plugin." heck, I took a bite at it and it seems fun to build plugins! especially if it's something as silly as warhammer.pi :) (shame

well I'm using mini models and GPT-5.4-mini is better than Gemini 3.1 Pro (considerably faster in exchange for less broad world knowledge) and 3.5 Flash (that one's trash by itself)

1. I recently got hired, then fired and paid $100 for two weeks. I'm tired of people telling me that I'm now useless thanks to AI. I think about switching to offensive cyber - at least no one is going to give access to Mythos to a

yeah but you also have commercial licensing with Qt specifically :)) or we are going to see an explosion of vibe-coded GPL apps. anyhow, the likes of Linear and Notion ain't gonna abandon web and go Qt. or!! if we are very lucky, we ca

turns out things are not that bad! we just rolled back to 2010. oh, wait, now every app is a browser instance. shit. EDIT: so, how did I arrive at 2010, you ask? I looked at DDR5 pricing and found the closest pricing per GB in the past. thi

I'd enjoy having something like this but for x86/64 :)

believe it or not, but pirated copies can be better a thousandfold than what paying customers get. whenever I want to play Deathloop, I download it from torrents despite "owning" it on Steam, all because Denuvo really likes my S

if computers themselves are bicycles for the mind, LLMs are cars. or even motorcycles, if we talk smaller models. - they require specific roads being paved for them. for example, if your tooling is proprietary and not accessible from the CL

this is obviously a way to try and get someone hooked, younger people and nonprofits alike. much like their Claude for Open-Source program, which gives a one-time 6-month Claude Max credit for maintainers of some super-popular open-source p

previously, mugging through docs to turn them into serializables for some API took weeks of grueling work if you wanted to cover an entire API surface that's as big as, say, GitHub's. nowadays, just "copy Markdown" from

well, I can usually think for myself or hit someone up in Discord (or Teams, if it's for a living) and in a worst case (that person just deflects to AI anyway) just save some token budget for myself

YESSSS!!! speed is THE way! I like my boilerplate POJOs/data classes generated at breakneck pace of 300+ tok/s, Flash-Lite is more useful than GPT-5.5 for me this way. if it's too slow, you just stay in that goddamn async d

some timing-sensitive games such as Clair Obscur (parry) or I Am Your Beast (movement)? sure, they depend on low latency. that said, GeForce Now is, sadly, pretty good nowadays. enough to play a moderately fast paced game such as DEATHLOOP.

I am more excited about WinUI Reactor than anything else. the gap between Compose/React thinking and XAML thinking is enormous, and Reactor just bridges it. I am curious about interoperability - how would one include a Reactor-based co

I've been using Gemini for that - it feels like it practically thinks in images (or "possesses impressive visual intelligence," as Google execs would put it).

`@cImport` gets moved from the "mainline" language into a separate module -> this example won't compile on future versions of Zig, that's the point

by bpavuk 4mo ago
I'm a little too lazy to double-check, but either way 0.17.0 is around the corner, where it will totally get nixed

by bpavuk 4mo ago
`@cImport` is dead, apparently, so the example should be updated.
