I don't understand the point of automating note taking. It never worked for me to copy paste text into my notes and now you can 100x that? The whole point of taking notes for me is to read a source critically, fit it in my mental model

Except there is getting around that simple math. Did you consider Jevons paradox? If design becomes more efficient, it will be used in more cases, and in return there will be more demand!

Good to remind this. But I also don't want to go back to pre-llm. Some dev activities are just too painful and boring, like correctly writing s3 policies. We must have discipline to decide what is worth our attention and what we should

Do I get it right that this is everything you need for a typical CLI tool?

What you said about the pages is just plainly false information. I host my website on CodeBerg pages. https://docs.codeberg.org/codeberg-pages/

I can share mine. I am not sure if this connects with you because maybe you are more experienced. I'm DevOps writing boring Python microservices for €. I have no CS background and never did systems programming. However, writing Python

But it frees up time to build more products, which could give you leverage for negotiating better pay.

Maybe I am naive but I still believe that simplicity leads to personal wins in the long run. Having simpler system designs lead to velocity and eventually you become known as the "team that can deliver".

The examples you name are also fine. Just stuff that makes you feel something.

Spot on. Interesting methods always seem to be popular with engineering folks. But results are soulless.

Sometimes it can be handy for testing some code locally. Especially in some highly automated CICD setups it can be a pain to just try out if the code works, yes it is ironic.

With the direction MtG is currently heading, I kind of want to break out and just play some in-Universe sets that are community made on an FOSS client. How nice would it be to just play the game in its original spirit.

As always with Zig posts, here come the haters. I really wonder why you even care about it. Can't we all be happy that Andrew and his team are doing their damnest to create something they believe in? Myself I am deeply inspired by the

I couldnt quite get the benefit of this. It's similar to UTC, but then in a format that doesn't make sense unless you convert it back to minutes? Why not use UTC, it is already in human understand format.

I read this type of (sour) comment more and more on this forum. To me it reads very cynical and I wonder what the author is trying to say with this. Are you perhaps negatively impacted by automatic coding?

Maybe there should be a different way to calculate h-index. Where for an h-index of n, you also need n replications.

What is the point of this? LLMs are trained to predict the next word in a text. In what way, shape or form does that have anything to do with stock market prediction? Completely ridiculous AI bubble nonsense.

Is it the borrow checker? Normally rust had your back when it comes to memory oopsies. Maybe we need a borrow checker for empathy..

A super cool feature are labeled switches: https://codeberg.org/ziglings/exercises/src/branch/main/exer... They allow for super ergonomical coding of state machines, which is a lot of fun.
