It being in the legal realm probably had some impact. These tools can be seen as an attack on your profession, and I’m sure that affects the decision, whether conscious or not.

You would think with the money being invested into Anthropic they would do better providing access to their model. I ended up cancelling my Claude subscription because I was constantly getting timed out, and I think I was getting pushed to

With what the OP asked for, I don't think wgpu is the right choice. They want to push the limits of Apple Silicon, or do Apple platform specific work, so an abstraction layer like wgpu is going in the opposite direction in my opinion.

A Samsung 990 Pro dips to the same prices. I got a 2TB one for $150 this Black Friday. Apple is overcharging for storage. You get a lot of compute for cheap though :/

I’ve gotten the impression that MAUI might be a dead-end, with MS pushing Blazor instead. I’m amazed people like C# so much. I think it really shows its age when you compare it to Swift or another modern language. Some things I’ve been frus

It has nowhere near the performance characteristics of those languages. It could, but it doesn’t. Look up a variety of language benchmarks. It’s typically ranked around Python/Javascript. You can get as fast as C but the code is very a

> They are actively working on making Swift viable in baremetal environments, firmware, drivers, etc. I don’t think Swift has a place in these niches FWIW. Writing low-level Swift code is very verbose and unnatural. Personally I just don

It's exciting to see how this all shakes out. Hopefully we end up with more options for building custom game engines and apps. I've been going down the Vulkan rabbit hole. It's been fun/enlightening to learn, but the nat

Nice app, I might give it a try for my video collection. Would you be willing to share the OS breakdown? I'm primarily interested in macOS and am wondering roughly what % of your sales are for that platform?

These type inference landmines are all over the place with SwiftUI too. I run into them with View/Shape/Color frequently

Most police bikes I see in the US are Harleys, I don't think they're buying anything out of practicality. If they were, you'd see a lot more BMW police motorcycles.

Yeah, with a 2-3 year wait to know whether you succeeded or not, I doubt you'd put all your eggs in one basket.

Wow I had no idea FL Studio was written in Delphi. Anyway, I went pretty deep on SwiftUI from the announcement, and started programming with Delphi 7 / Visual Basic 6. While I enjoy SwiftUI, it has some rough edges still, and it's

Very true, my needs are niche for sure. But I’m more thinking about the near future. AI/LLMs are going to have some general applications that users are going to want, and will become the norm, and I think it’s clear that will shake out

I’m a mac user at home, and I don’t get their AI story/path now that they’re not supporting AMD/Nvidia GPUs since the Apple Silicon transition. Maybe they’ll manage to get LLMs running well locally with the new low-bit developmen
