What are you using Pixi.js for in this case? Good luck with the launch!

People have done (there’s at least one guy making games in BQN) , but nobody has really nailed heterogeneous (CPU/GPU) compilation, and gfx api integration from a ux perspective. We desperately need better API agnostic frameworks befor

It’s a bit like dismissing Chinese because you can’t read the letters I think. But perhaps another failing of the current array languages is that they are sort of walled gardens. Not as easy to integrate or modularise as something like JS&#

If theres a question the answer is usually money in America... Things they see as problems: Reducing need for MacBooks, Virtualised app-stores that use creative accounting or some other trick to circumvent apple tax, True free-software cult

I'd like to play around with ideas like this (training in ternary for example). Does anyone have any links to good reading materials or resources? The FPGA trinary implementation is also really interesting!

Socialism isn’t authoritarian communism- it could be as simple as pulling the tax regime away from the neoliberal doctrine. At the moment we encourage rentseeking and punish labour/productive work. Cheap healthcare housing and educati

The establishment left has been replaced with /was always aspiring-middle class monetarist spokesmen. Actual radical socialist policy needs to be normalized or we're heading for trouble

It’s the FFI thing - it’s next to impossible to bind to Cpp or rust in a preferred language. It’s a great tragedy that so much code is cloistered away. In 10 years Zig , maybe Mojo or Odin or something else will have stolen mind share away

People are more childish than they like to believe. It's a mix of jealousy and ignorant skepticism. What you're doing is incredibly interesting I look forward to seeing it develop!

It's so nice to integrate, compared to most very well known behemoths. Kudos to the creator ( who I think is relatively young and clearly incredibly smart )

It's about the usage. No single dogma ever makes sense without context. These are abused by many to hide taxable wealth. It's in the public interest to understand what very powerful people are doing , because the public are usuall

Even most economists these days would agree that this is a really bad take (invisible hand). You should read more than the punchline of that Adam Smith book and you would find that even he would agree

If you were to read a some critiques of neoliberalism you would understand how free market utopianism can lead to authoritarianism/is used as a cover for it. The idea of the absolute duty to shareholders is newer that you would think.

This behaviour is itself inherently good for authoritarian regimes though. You can’t escape politics

1 - These are bad. But you can change slumlords to landlords and you would be making a more pertinent point. Because gentrification is really driven by the market making slumlords less relevant. 2 - Poor people can't invest because the
