One of the main reasons for me for sticking with Claude Code (also for non-coding tasks, I think the name is a misnomer) is the fixed price plan. Pretty much any other open-source alternative requires API key, which means that as soon as I

Are there any real-world tests or reviews of foveated streaming in actual gameplay? I’m wondering how it holds up in fast shooters where you depend on tiny cues in your peripheral vision. Wouldn’t the lower-resolution periphery make it hard

I did something similar but for non-classes based language (Go) and in 3D [1] But I saw it as next step towards shifting programming from sitting and scanning texts into something more tangible, where developer has broad overview of softwar

I was just replying to someone on Messenger (the React Native app) and needed to paste a Unicode character via copy-paste. For some reason, the input field kept inserting it with a prepended space. I double- and triple-checked – copied it f

My experience has been different – and increasingly so over the past 30 years. Crashing or leaking desktop apps are a rare experience nowadays. When it happens, it’s always an "oh, really?" moment. On the web… I often can’t even w

Restoring state is just one of the features, that can be implemented in any app if needed, with all that baggage that comes with a feature – testing, maintaining, etc. It's just if desktop app becomes so broken/unresponsive, that

Also reminder that "refresh" is just a code word for "restart (and often redownload) the whole bloody app". It's funny how in web-world people so used to "refreshing" the apps and assume that it's a n

I’ve been (really, really) into photography since I was six, and I’m still (really, really) at it three decades later. I never felt much appeal toward photography as an art form – it’s always been a way to capture moments and share them wit

I use Warp terminal for couple of years, and recently they embeeded AI into it. At first I was irritated, disabled it, but AI Agent is built in as an optional mode (Cmd-I to toggle). And I found myself using it more and more often for comma

I read this book after seeing a lot of recommendations in HN comments, and boy did it deliver. Other Rumelt's books are great too, but this one really reshapes your understanding of such an overused word as "strategy".

I actually hate async/await approach to concurrency and avoid it as much as I can. My mental model is that it's a caller who decides how call should be executed (synchroniously or asynchroniously). Synchronious call is when caller

I think author just used to having consistency in Go. If you learned behaviour of one aspect of the language (i.e. compile-time error for conflicting field names), you would expect to have it in all cases. And that's not what's ha

When you create a struct with another embedded struct (possibly from other package): type Foo struct { somepackage.Bar URL string } you don't want to depend on whether Bar already have URL. Your depth level has h

To protect against changes in structs coming from external libraries. Or, better phrased, external structs should not dictate what names you're allowed to use in your own structs (so they have priority).

Some people in comments jump to the conclusion that Go allows conflicting names in embedded structs. It doesn't not – for the embedded structs of the same depth. These won't compile: type Bad struct { Name string

Oh, nice! One of my biggest issues with mainstream LLMs/apps was that working on the long text (article, script, documentation, etc.) is limited to copy-pasting dance. Which is especially frustrating in comparison to the AI coding assi

You're not even wrong. In your words, a "general computation device" is the device that enables you to "live your life"? How does "being their only device" make it even "general computational"? I

For the past 5 years, my main stack is Flutter+gRPC+Go, and I read articles like this in horror and satisfaction simultaneously. For many years I'm advocating the community to be very open about the history of web stack (and JS in part
