Maybe Intel or AMD should bring back a Larrabee style CPU which can use say 48 sockets of DDR/CAMM2 sticks.

Yeah. It requires a framework specific plugin in vscode (and other IDEs), since the markup is just text which requires framework-specific interpretation. Ultimately, like everything else it's trade-offs and personal preference.

I use my own tools and scripts, and those aren't for everyone - so I'm just gonna make some general suggestions. 1. You should try Aider. Even if you don't end up using it, you'll learn a lot from it. 2. Conversations ar

Isn't it easier and cheaper to validate than to classify (requires expensive engineers)? I mean the skill is not as expensive - many companies do this at scale.

I had this 2017 project called Sailboat [1], which was almost the same thing but for React. I am aware of Crank though, and it's quite nice. [1]: https://medium.com/@jeswin/sailboat-a-modern-router-for-reac...

I've been using a Sony mirrorless (anything above a5100 will work) for over 6 years now; it needed a "dummy battery", and an HDMI capture card (about $25 for noname brands, or $80+ for Elgato, BlackMagic etc). It auto-focuses

Lit is amazing. But I don't like template strings for HTML. The IDE doesn't understand it automatically, and lit jsx had a bunch of issues last time I tried to use it. In my view, JSX will be the true legacy of React. Applications

This has been tried several times (most notably Samsung Dex; but long, long back by Motorola in Atrix circa 2011) - nobody wanted it because the display plus the keyboard and a mouse is as heavy as a laptop.

You're right that it's technically orthogonal to what's in the paper. I was trying to model the "reasoning process", which has general applicability depending on how/where it's implemented.

Interesting. Due to its emphasiss on BFS, it's the opposite of something I've been trying (I named it the "Tree of failures"). My assumption was that humans don't try a breadth-first approach. Instead, we split a ta

I'm saying knowledge of React is a good to have, even when you prefer something else. In the sense, avoiding it is not a good idea - know the enemy.

This looks great. But in my view there's still some scope for improvement in expressive-ness (compared to something like LINQ). A future area of exploration could be to add a parser to the mix, so that we can write: const jane = db
