I want to do something similar. Specifically, the project is to create VFS similar to the one in Linux 1.00 in xv6-riscv. I completed the MIT xv6 labs and read the VFS code in Linux 1.00 a while ago, and I don't think it is a particula

Actually I did once. I forgot which ads it was, but it was something I genuinely wanted. But yeah, usually I don't bother with ads and just turns them off.

I think a lot of the non-professionals start with parsing and do not get exposed to backend. I have read two books about interpreters/compilers and they don't touch the backend very much. Maybe this is introductory for backend?

The root of the problem is that ordinary people don't make enough noises for any problems they see in life, so they are essentially cattles. Do you care about cattle's opinions? I guess a few of us do, but most of us don't.

Thanks for the tip!

I recall that Diablo 1 (and 2) has a lot of enemies that are essentially the same sprite but different palette. Is it the same trick?

As a side note, I checked OP's other projects, and looks like he/she was already OK with arts from earlier on: https://staniks.github.io/articles/inferno/ https://staniks.github.io/articl

I find the most interesting things are the internal tools -- like the Python script to generate the gib animation, or the other Python script to generate 2D spritesheet from Blender. OP is definitely a 10x engineer who can also do good arts

It's too late for me, as I'm already in the prison of family and kids, but you probably still can!

Is there any extensive interviews with Japanese Console programmers? I feel all these interviews focus on the writing/design side, which make sense for popularity, but I do hope there are extensive interviews with programmers. There ar

I wrote my side projects with as little AI as possible. You can still do it in VSCode AFAIK. But this is just for fun.

I intuitively agree. Some of my good ideas come from sprint walking...and sitting on the toilet.

This is so annoying. I tried to see what passkey is, and tried to sign in, and MSFT always tried to ask me to use authenticator, and when I clicked other ways to sign in, somehow it went to "Reset password", and I clicked cancel,

I actually agree with him, but maybe they will lower the salary further because of that, to make US workers more "competitive".

I prefer linux laptops but maybe MacOS is not too bad comparing to Windows at least.

Can relate. A lot of the times it is the process that is slowing people down, and it is unrealistic for any corporation to do security audition for everything developers need on time, so unfortunately rules have to be bent. Some big corps r

I probably wouldn't believe that "shredding". Also there will be legal consequences I think?

Kinda top 0.1%, and all those who are directly integrating AI into the companies' workflow, so that they get richer temporarily.

Yeah. So many people drinking the cool-aid dreaming oneself to be the 10%.

It's more like "I'm Holy and All, bow before me. Why don't you like me? I don't understand" type. I mean at least Jesus gave free wine and bread.

We can control for the same age. But anyway it is going to be difficult to design the tests. My personal experience says, unless you really like kids, you are going to suffer a lot -- yes you are also going to have some fun, but you are def

My parent hunch is that most researchers choose to marry and have kids, and that significantly reduces his, and maybe, just maybe, that changes in hormone also makes him/her less aggressive and ambitious -- in all perspectives. I'

May I say that the architecture is like this -- The VM is completely independent from the frontend. It also provides primitive functions interacting with the system, e.g. printing to console and drawing lines/circles, etc to different

SWE is not going to die, but it is going to change. With the help LLM, nowadays many companies require developers to keep up with the speed. A task that was originally estimated for a few days because the developer needed to read the doc, u

I hope you get more time, when kids move out I guess.

Yeah. I have realized that everything I bought is eventually a liability. Especially single home houses -- anyone who doesn't enjoy DIY (which I hate with a passion) should never buy one of them.

You don't have to do it already. You can hire people to clean your room every week or even every day if you have the $$$. You can also buy food so that you don't have to cook. I'd definitely live in the office if given the ch
