He seemed very affected by his passing. You could tell how deeply he felt the loss of such talent from the world.

This is a very reductive take. Even if you don't like Jon, calling Jai an exercise in arrogance is simply untrue. When he started making Jai in ~2014, there were very few viable alternatives to C/C++ in the systems programming spa

The writing of Braid wasn't fantastic imo. But the game really spoke for itself.

Score of 18,900 -- often I'd have heard a word before and the process of elimination allowed me to guess it correctly. I'm guessing there's one level better CFR2?

Stewart Lynch in his 10x VODs mentions his custom Function abstraction in C++. It's super clean and explicit, avoiding `auto` requirement of C++ lambdas. It's use looks something akin to: // imagine my_function tak

Technology is not evil, the people wielding it are. It's a little disingenuous and dare I say insensitive to make this analogy.

Indeed, a couple years ago I tried to use chatgpt to clarify some confusing parts of geometric algebra to me, and it confidently told me completely useless information which I had to blindly trust. Fast forward a couple years, I've rea

I'm 4 at a push. When I read, I see _very_ vague images in my head, but that's about it. I'm very adept at conjuring up sound, though. Maybe it doesn't apply in the same way, but I can hear full symphonies and pick out i

Exactly - if I don't have the Monzo banking app on my phone, I can't do _any_ banking. Thinking about that now... That's not great.

I really dislike the way xdg-desktop-portal works though. Ive been totally unsuccessful trying to implement colour picking in Arch/Hyprland with it. The API is absolutely abysmal

I can think of a few reasons. People tend to overorder pizza more than other stuff. Pizza is also more robust than other foods, so it survives being thrown away more than other things. It's also very satiating, comprising bread, dairy

I don't understand the modern fad of choosing a noun+"bound" for naming games. Whenever a game has a name like this it really puts me off, because it just screams "I don't care enough about my game to choose a uniqu

Agreed, seems like a lot of unnecessary girating just to implement something that would've been much simpler + cross-platform with a custom UI toolkit and something like opengl. Tabs are like UI 101

I was robbed at knifepoint on Oxford Street at about 3am while drunk, and let me say, there had to have been about 100 cameras pointed in my direction at the time of the mugging. Despite all this, the police told me nothing could be done be

Lack of GPS is the dealbreaker for me. Otherwise this would be an insta purchase -- I bought the Time in 2014, and was hoping for a "smartstrap" with GPS back then, but when it never came I slightly lost interest.

Code works just fine with Hyprland in my experience, you just need yo tweak the interface scaling. However, I've taken the opportunity to learn neovim since switching to arch/Hyprland, since the emphasis is much more on keyboard-c

I recently finished setting up arch + Hyprland manually last weekend, and then saw Omarchy for the first time yesterday and it basically does everything I wanted + more QOL features. Hit me just slightly too late. But great work from DHH.

I tried contributing but its too c++-y for me to understand it unfortunately.

But Andreas does fairly heavily, if you watch his code VODs you see that he leans on copilot often.

What we really need is a consistent GPU ISA. If it wasn't for the fairly recent proliferation of ARM CPUs, we more or less would've rallied around x86 as the de facto ISA for general purpose compute. I'm not sure why we could

I think the overwhelmingly better approach for C is codegen here. Better ergonomics, tab completion, less error prone, etc. As long as your codegen is solid!

I remember toying with Polymer circa 2014, for some reason the word "transclusion" jumps into my mind, I remember being excited about it at the time. I barely remember what it means today though.
