what do you mean by "run AI"? as in, providing self hosted models? or running Claude code/Codex? or using it for support? or what?

Great write up of a problem that I'm glad Golang sidesteps The problem with this is that it's systemic and central to Rusts trait-based ecosystem composition. Go’s has a version but it's much smaller and more local. In Go, co

we went from the Linux and later Napster era of "information wants to be free" pretty quickly over the past decade. Billions have been spent on changing our minds and our children so privacy and privacy are bad.

hah. Could. At university over a decade ago, we were looking at using Bluetooth/WiFi signals to create live room maps for military applications. Since then, the tech has only got better.

The architecture was designed for determinism and performance: - Go WASM engineowns the scene graph, evaluates timelines, compiles draw commands - Canvas2D frontend executes the command buffer (GPU-accelerated by the browser) - Go backend h

Just imagine what happens when lawmakers discover the possibilities of every one with access to a lathe or CNC machine. Absolutely ridiculous.

I can't get it to work. I have to use an incognito window or it just craps itself. Terrible software for mediocre companies.

So govt approved hardware and sofware. No custom ROMs or firmware. Wow, the EU is really going hard on innovation. I suppose the nice thing is that the dystopia has already been explored by science fiction quite well.

I assume this is because they're already insanely profitable after hitting PMF and are now trying to bring down infra costs? Right? RIGHT?!

As someone not in the US. Isnt ICE just enforcing the immigration law of the country? Is that a bad thing? I've got friends in the UK crying out for something like ICE so keen to understand why it's viewed as rapid decline.

any sort of web tech based development. Frontend, backend, animations, design, infra, distributed systems engineering, networking.

I'd say he's wanting to lock in those gains. Diamond hands are different when you're up 100s of millions on a single stock.

> Rust is a lot nicer to work with than C What? How??

yeah damn, i guess that's it. That's the dichotomy. You're either an elitist snobs or a normies. No nuance, no qualification.

Oh, you're one of those blinkered types... "Golang is C with garbage collection" I mean, Go isn’t C with GC - it’s C with: - first-class concurrency (goroutines, channels) - structural typing via interfaces - a memory model s

What do you recommend instead of Go? Feels like a skills issue but happy to be wrong.

how do you mean? I go from pixel to pixel and it's exactly as I left it - wallpaper, call logs, messages, whatsapp, chrome.

it's good! you don't need a pkg folder btw - they're not a go standard. check out `internal` as it's recognised by the tool chain and may be what you want

It's fine, it sounds like you're an enterprise programmer and that suits your role/use case. I use zed with the inbuilt terminal, additional terminals + tools like pgcli and docker. I would feel trapped/impotent using an

Can you do that on Windows/mac? Gnome devs not withstanding, you have access to the source to change it if you want or put up a PR?

it's just an example of providing a hyper tuned tool for a given usecase. In this case, for hacking on the 37signals codebase.
