I hope people remember that in AI "oversight mechanisms" isn’t about preventing some "Skynet" scenario; it’s about ensuring these systems don’t malfunction. Current AI tech is far from being self-aware, it’s advanced mat

This looks similar to https://ossia.io/ Interestingly, both seem to be projects from French developers, and they look very similar.

The documentation seems a bit sparse. Also, I couldn't find binaries so I'm guessing building from source is required at the moment? I'm curious about the binary size of it all. Could this be compiled with WASM and run on sta

Uses @keyframes and text-shadow to try and mimic a CRT effect but makes the text unreadable (for me at least). The browser readability mode does work on the page though.

Luxurious 640x480 sounds suitable for the coveted retro graphics look :-) I switched to OSX late and was not acquainted with Stuffit. It appears these .sit archives are in that format, but the "unar" utility on my system extracts

This looks cool but very hard to make use of. I wish the author had some info on how to operate on the file format too. I could see myself using this for a retro looking game or something like that.

Orthogonal to the music theory itself, there's the question of general learning methodology. One approach that seems promising is combining spaced repetition with knowledge graphs. The graph helps map knowledge areas and dependencies.

Next.js and similar tools redefine server-side rendering (SSR) to mean generating HTML on the server using the same code that runs on the frontend, requiring server-side JavaScript and what they call "hydrating" on the client. Nex

All of what I'm talking about is doable through libraries today (or you can write it yourself). But making things available through DOM APIs create a new baseline where the very same tools are made available for anyone, no matter the f

If you try something for a decade and it doesn't work, maybe a change in style is necessary! An article exceeding 20 pages doesn't sound like the best persuasion strategy.

I think React is fine, especially when using it mainly for rendering, keeping async stuff out of the components as much as possible. The React API is way nicer to construct DOM trees than using Fragments, creating and appending children ele

I might be off here, but this seems like the right place to ask: don't most SQL replacements focus heavily on querying while largely overlooking insertion and updating? I get why querying gets more attention, insertions are usually str

What a missed opportunity! A note in a bottle in a lighthouse seems like the perfect opportunity to be more poetic, inspiring and exciting. I hope the current engineers leave a better note for the engineers of the next century.

If the author is reading this, I think a single repository would be more appropriate than multiple repos [1]. It would be nice to set things up so we can simply git pull, docker run, and execute the benchmarks for each language sequentially
