Yes, it is quite surprised they're not allowed. I wonder what's the likely limitation, any ideas?

The main issue I kept having when trying to do this with just git is then managing all the branch names to be attached to the right moved commits, so that my stack could be reviewable on github's open PRs. Does jj help with that at all

One clever difference is that you can use namespaced keywords for instance no more doubt of what :username might mean, you could use :com.ycombinator.news/username as key. If you worked in exclusively static typed languages it takes a

It is weird, but part of the skill is to surf exactly on that line that is normal without crossing it. Almost all honest signals are about a similar tradeoff.

Why force the app though? And is it true it won't allow screenshotting?

In python there's no let, var nor const. So yes.

Clojure also makes it very easy, it'd require too much discipline to do such a thing in Python. Even Carmack, who I think still does python mostly by himself instead of a team, is having issues there.

That's not what you get out of LLMs. LLMs produce a distribution from which to sample the next token. Then there's a loop that samples the next token and feeds it back to to the model until it samples a EndOfSequence token. In you

This is where it goes wrong. It will be selectively applied. The worst. It's just wrong and it breaks the internet. We had it so good for so little.
