I wouldn't say make is perfect, but it's different from this kind of tool. Make is more geared towards file creation that depends on complex pipelines. It's not a task runner. In fact, you have to force it to be a task runner

It depends on the implementation. If the actions don't wait for the animation to complete to do work, then you can move ahead of the animations (and maybe they could gracefully merge from one into the next animation).

That was intense. It made me think about my father in law, who had a heart attack in 2015 that compromised 90% of his heart. His exams are so ugly that one of his physicians refused to threat him, probably worrying that he might die any min

This sounds reasonable and correct, but my personal experience includes more monolithic messes than microservices ones.

Yeah, I feel like a lot of people read his work, but few understand it. Maybe this is a flaw of the books, I don't know.

This actually happened at my previous company. The sole maintainer of a legacy system was a contractor in his sixties and he died due to COVID. The system was still unmaintained and falling apart when I left.

I'm very much a hacker myself, but isn't this a little unfair? There is an entire column in the framework described as "Outcome focus" and the items seem to make sense on a first glance. I'm not saying that the fram

I think they should also target enterprise users as well as hobbyists. I've evaluated it for my company (I'm the CTO of a small Fintech of 100 people) and I was kinda lost on how to share data between a team and not just individua

You are clearly overworked. Your brain activates defenses to get you away from work so it can heal itself. Slow down and look for a professional that can prescribe you with medication that can accelerate the healing process.

Why not use a branch? This was the only surprisingly part to me. Won't this get messy when I try to pull the code later on? I don't know how the maintainer is going to merge my patch.

On a side note, in a universe where ReactOS[0] had comprehensive drivers support, would it be a better alternative to modern Windows? Or would desktop Linux? That's a fun thought exercize, at least for me :) [0] https://reac

I think it was Debian with i386 packages. Compiling with Gentoo targeting my CPU and not a generic i386 machine made things much faster for such a crappy device.

I've done this once. I got a laptop from a new company that was really shitty, but I had hopes that running Gentoo with some nasty CFLAGS would make it usable. However, the thing would heat a lot when compiling the base system and woul

It doesn't seem to offer anything special except "it's not chrome". Vivaldi has some nice design concepts, but it was getting in my way.

I've tried to use Vivaldi for a few weeks, but I kept getting hit by glitches and small annoyances that ended bringing me back to Chrome. There are nice ideas there, but if I were them, I'd focus on making sure you are not losing

I don't agree with his take on LLMs. There is something about them that feels very similar to the way my own brain works. Like, for example, when I perceive a smell that, somehow, activates a very old and almost forgotten visual memory

It's cool, but some apps (like food delivery apps) conflate all notifications into a single category, probably in an attemp to abuse the system.

Eventually, other (real) open source models will reach this size as well. I was just wondering about the technical aspects of a model this big. Does performance escalate? Does it saturate quickly around 70B? Something like that.

The intermediate state where your "plugin" is just a one-off script that you wrote and ran in a single buffer, without a build system or IDE SDK.

I think the biggest benefit of going away from something like VSCode or IDEA is frictionless creation and integration of new tools. VSCode and IDEA usually require you to write plugins to achieve a deep level of customization for your needs
