Sure, I'm just answering your question of what people are benchmarking and it's not elixir. You could be the person that benchmarks LLMs in niche languages and shows how bad they are at it. If your benchmark suite became popular e

Heh, so really I just need to go with the Linux approach and recompile everything with "fixed" titlebars. For some reason it didn't occur to me that it's non native since they do such a good job at matching the native st

I am so uneducated that I cannot even answer your question properly. But for example, the default terminal in OSX has a really nice thin bar. VSCode/Cursor have a _slightly_ thicker one. Google Chrome and Firefox are huge. The red&#x2F

What's reverse engineering like on a Mac? Have you ever written about it? I had a lot of experience reverse engineering things on windows (win32 + x86, before 64bit was a thing) using OllyDbg and patching binaries and/or (ab)using

I think the hardware doesn't keep up. Uzbekistan has the worst internet compared to Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan whilst the infrastructure in general is much better (in my fairly uneducated opinion). I expected to have the best internet u

I think you really overestimate the capability of the UK to enforce laws. Yes, they can write them and yes they can fine large corporations, that's basically it. They cannot enforce laws against such "petty" crimes, the reaso

I'm currently traveling in Uzbekistan and am surprised that wireguard as a protocol is just blocked. I use wireguard with my own server, because usually governments just block well known VPN providers and a small individual server is f

I worked at a place that was allergic to contributing patches upstream. We maintained a lot of internal forks for things and had no problem collaborating. You don't need to push the rebased branch to the same branch on your remote, if

by doix 1y ago
Yes, I don't quite get it. When I need to maintain a fork, I just add an extra remote to git. Then I fetch upstream (what I call my remote) and rebase my changes against whatever branch I'm following. At any point in time I can ge

I've heard this opinion worded slightly different many, many times over the years. I just can't agree with it. You're going to spend thousands of hours infront of a computer, it makes sense to invest time in being "effic

Which one do you recommend? I tried multiple when switching, but none of them quite worked right. I want: * Two seperate buffers * Separate shortcuts to paste them * Selecting text _anywhere_ automatically puts it into the second buffer I c

I have the exact opposite problem on a Mac. Things don't just work. You can select text in the terminal and then middle click to paste it. But that only works in the terminal, not anywhere else. Catches me out a bunch. There is also on

What do you mean by "scam"? That you pay and that they don't work at all? That they don't bypass the geo restrictions? Because they do. Perhaps you mean that they are bad value(ripoff vs scam)? Then sure, probably they a

Yeah, I have a bunch of free games on the Epic store, because they were giving them out. I still buy them on Steam because the Epic launcher is just so awful.

I remember WhatsApp costing money, 1$ per year or per lifetime or something. I paid for it, I think it was a WinRar situation though, where deleting and reinstalling the app gave it to you for free or something. I'm guessing most peopl

This is going to be quite negative(sorry), but I don't really see the value here. Perhaps I don't really "get it", but I don't see how this helps you plan. It just lets you visualize the plan after you've creat

It really depends. For a "regular" website or blog, I agree. I think people over use complicated web frameworks to just serve what amounts to a mostly static page. But the approach just doesn't work for things like Slack, Fig

There is also the "backend of frontend", for a lack of a better term. When you've got a complex webapp, you start managing a lot of state on the frontend. You basically end up with a second database that you keep in sync, pos

I guess you could say it's an alternative to postgres. It's a different database, that's column oriented which makes different tradeoffs. I'd say DuckDB is a better comparison, if you're familiar with it.
