Probably could put a reflective sticker on top of the disc and it would work?

I appreciate you mentioning this because I think it’s actually an important point

Did you try bindgen? Because it’s extremely good and efficient imo.

by leoh 1y ago
They can’t, which is a good point. Also it would be basically useless for the reasons I mention.

I wonder if fil c would make most of these issues go away https://github.com/pizlonator/llvm-project-deluge

tl;dr: it’s slow because it finds far more bugs before runtime than literally any other mainstream compiled language

Are you doing this with an LLM interface directly as opposed to using cursor or another tool like that?

Good question, though in theory can figure all that out since it's OSS

+1 I have not found Gemini 2.5 better than Claude's latest models -- different and better at some things, but not better in general; and in general I have found Gemini 2.5 Pro to be worse at dealing with large codebases despite its hug

Not sure why this was flagged, because I think the point is that one-shot works terribly, which it does

>Personally my theory is that Gemini benefits from being able to train on Googles massive internal code base and because Rust has been very low on uptake internally at Google, especially since they have some really nice C++ tooling, Gemi

It’s okay. Complaints are documentation, limited community support (all kinds of architecture is much more diy for it vs PyTorch). Unrelated gripe: they architected it really poorly from a pure sw pov imo. Specifically it’s all about Python

How did the author figure out the pin out for Ethernet? Wild stuff. Also kudos for them using GRPC. Suggests that there are some competent folks around not rushing things.

Well on their way.. by having to write a ton of C for the interpreter. I think it’s really imprudent for them not to be using Rust yet for critical sections.
