This is surprising to hear. I have Zed on my tablet as IntelliJ (PyCharm/RustRover) turn it into a space heater. Zed's introspection/refactoring/general language knowledge etc isn't on the same tier at JB; it's

I've been hitting that or something recent recently; it's what I would consider a severe bug because it can result in lost work and related. Basically, if you `git pull`, edit a file elsewhere, or use an LLM, zed's tree will

Many would agree with you. For me, the main selling point is the overall pro/con balance of the language. It's just a nice language overall, especially when you place it only with other languages capable of running fast and low-le

That is great context and promising for the ecosystem as a whole. I owe it to myself and you to try it again. I think I will take an existing code base (I have a molecular dynamics engine in rust) that uses CUDARC, and I will write similar

Opus 5 is old news and has lots of problems. Minuet 6.9 is the one to use, and fixes all the problems people have with LLMs.

Yes, but it will be some work, and the most likely outcome is you would be the only person who uses it.

Rust on ESP32 was great at one point. ~1 year ago there was a major HAL re-write and consolidation, and it went for me from working, to very broken, with most of the recent commits revamping it being done by someone who was neither an Espre

I'm with you. I like the DIY, take-things-into-own-hands drive and exploration. I think the next iteration would be nice as a back-to-basics learning journey, to see how less can be more, and explore the possible tools. (e.g. likely se

Sage advice!. In shorts like these, there's no outcome that "wins big" unfortunately, unless you do it with large amounts of money. (Unlike a long position on an individual stock that 10xs, or options which are much riskier).
