I see people doing this a lot in Deadlock, Valve's next game that's in pre-release stage now. There are all sorts weird and fun skins people play with through mods, some of them definitely not copyright-friendly. I wonder how Valv

The less substance there is to it, the easier it is to talk about. The Chinese comments ("issues") also seem to be the same kind of jokes as the English ones, "no code means no bugs, perfect", etc., from the few I tried

bat is one of the few "new wave" tools that I install without hesitation, with no worries about stability issues or silent downsides. It has great defaults that make it feel like it always does the right thing for the context, jus

The "How to Write" part seems to be entirely in video form, and the link seems to be a thin blog post introducing it, so it would be good to have a `[video]` tag in the title here.

These BOLT builds are Linux-specific anyway, so that doesn't matter in this case.

Unfortunately, even Properties aren't fully reliable. The Tamil pulli for eg., does not have the Alphabetic property despite being a central part of the Tamil alphabet, pretty much due to historical accident: other Indic languages have

Juliaup can now install PR builds IIRC, so having someone make a PR that just changes the Makefile to do this BOLT based build would be an option too. Less potentially disruptive than making it the default straight off, while still being mu

Just wanna express my thanks to all the complaining comments here, they helped me set expectations so that I wasn't too disappointed when the site actually did turn out to be an unreadable hot mess.

The title and the article are both independently true, just not together :) As in, there are certainly cosmic simulations that once needed supercomputers which now run on a laptop, that's just the story of computational progress. More

When was it looked into? The Zulip mobile app was rewritten in Flutter recently, that version was in beta for several months and was finally made the default Zulip app about a month ago. I haven't used Mattermost so can't compare,

There are many that are, but I feel like your comment is based on the same faulty assumption as your sibling comment - that this is an ordering of version numbers as a whole. It's not, the ordering is on the same basis as in the post,

The Julia General registry is locally stored as a tar.gz and has version info for all registered packages, so I tried this out for Julia packages. The top 5 are: DiffEqBase 6.189.1 LoopVectorization 0

I don't think so, not yet. There's been Julia-on-wasm efforts that have been inching along for a while, but it's not nearly at a mature point afaik. I remember reading that some new developments (maybe shifting more of the co

Assuming they have a car (which a lot of people don't), this would be on the same level as asking about what phone they use - some people carefully chose theirs and want to talk about it, but for a lot of people it's just a thing

GPT-5 hasn't landed for me yet, but this has been my thought process too. This seems like a moment potentially equivalent to when Google got lowest-common-denominator-ed, when it stopped respecting your query keywords and doing "s

Some people have hypothesized that GPT-5 is actually about cost reduction and internal optimization for OpenAI, since there doesn't seem to be much of a leap forward, but another element that they seem to have focused on that'll p

Since the stream has been on some starting screen for several minutes, I went to check whether there are watch-along streams on Twitch for this - there are a few, and for some reason every one of them is in Spanish. I know Spanish-language
