Looks like no other comment dwells on the fact that FSF was based in Boston. I heard that Boston was a small hub for tech companies back in the 90s (which is is much less true these days), which might explain this.

So how do you get intellisense and debug C++ in Zed?

If your attitude is just "I'm not going to use abc because too many people say it's good", without even just trying that out first hand to verify those claims, I don't think you can go very far in your technical sk

Knowing C/C++, I more or less guessed what's happening (uninitialized variable) early in the blog post. It blows my mind that the languages allow you to leave variables uninitialized which has caused countless bugs (including prod

For renaming things: I have much more confidence in "traditional" IDE intellisense than LLMs, since they know exactly which ones to change, and never hallucinate and change irrelevant ones (worst cases are variables that have the

I have a 4070 super for gaming, and used it to play with LLM a few times. It is by no means a bad card, but I realize that unless I want to get 4090 or new Macs that I don't have any other use for, I can only use it to run smaller mode
