Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm curious why it would cause your project to compile slower though? It's a scripting language, so you don't need to compile anything, right? Do you mean compiling the Luau VM itself?

You are absolutely right. The average consumer is super smart. Has great taste. Definitely knows what's best.

Ya sure, they have more sales volume. Doesn't mean they're better. Toyota tells more cars than Rolls Royce. Top-shelf wireless earbuds aren't from Apple. Same for smart watches.

Wat. Vision Pro was a complete flop, Airpods aren't the best on the market, Apple Watch isn't the best on the market

Even if it doesn't get a jailbreak it will still be a gamechanger. It's far more of an open platform than iOS ever was. Sideloading Android apps on the Meta Quest doesn't require any hax, I imagine it will be the same on the

It's solvable it's just a lot of work. You need to have guardrails, i.e. multiple sanity-check passes (maybe there are other techniques, but I found this to be most effective) One concrete example I'm sure these Skyrim mods a

The Epic suit certainly opens some interesting avenues as well.

I feel like adding more laws for this kind of stuff won't really stick. Like a pie-in-the-sky sort of thing. We can hem and haw about what the government should do all we want but like... I mean, the Digital Markets Act certainly made

Good idea let's punt it to 20 years from now when the CocoaPods server goes down. By then the startup will have been acquired and we will be long gone, so it's the parent company's problem not ours.

It's a tell, like in poker. Just saying you're inexperienced, that's all lol. Everyone gets their start somewhere and who knows maybe this ends up being huge. Unsolicited advice: Stop using the Github web UI asap. It will slo

Thanks for that info. To be honest this librebox project looks kinda fishy to me. Seems like the author never used version control before. They put everything into one commit [1] and are making changes to the repo using the Github web UI. I

I wish they worked with the mpv folks instead of shoehorning this in. Based on the docs it looks like getting live transcription for a video will involve running the demuxer/decoder on one thread, and this whisper filter on another thr

Yea probably..... I wonder when the plateau is. Is it right around the corner or 10 years from now? Seems like they can just keep growing it forever, based on what Sam Altman is saying. I'm botching the quote but either he or George Ho

You raise a valid concern but you presume that we will stay under the OpenAI/Anthropic/etc oligopoly forever. I don't think this is going to be the status quo in the long-term. There is demand for different types of LLMs trai

I'm surprised you find it surprising. It's well established among ex-Googlers that it jumped the shark with Emerald Sea. There will always be pockets of sanity within such a large corp but it's been decadent for over a decade

Thank you and immibis for bringing this issue up. Always thought this was fishy. I don't fully understand this yet and will need to do more research. I bet these comments are unpopular because SSPL hurts GCP/AWS, which hurts YC. N

After finishing the article I immediately did ctrl+f "rust" and was disappointed to not see any of the results I wanted, but actually this comment is more hilarious than anyone saying "why didnt rockstar use rust in 2004!!!11

It's simply ignorance. For example, out of the 600 comments in this post, yours is the only one which was able to clearly articulate what actually happened. And it's all the way at the bottom. It goes to show the headspace most de

Oh wow you were editing the source of LuaJIT? That sounds like a nightmare. I'm pretty sure Mike Pall is the only person who understands that codebase lol. To be honest I am trying to move away from LuaJIT, now that q66's cffi-lua

I understand your frustrations since you are forced to work within a codebase that is shared with other developers with varying levels of experience. Lua was from the get-go never supposed to be a standalone language, it is more of a compli

Yeah it's pretty clear that whoever wrote that article has never heard of Alan Kay and upon reading this comment would fruitlessly attempt to use Google or ChatGPT to figure out why he is relevant in this context. (Seriously, if you fe
