I did this on a trip to Japan but can't remember for the life of me where. Some museum. My wife and I drew fishes and then they were uploaded and we went to a room and watched them swim across walls/ceilings. Really cool experienc

Not seeing it on my account, guess the roll out is actively happening (or gradual)?

No it's not. It's like an all you can eat buffet stating you can eat as much as you want and feed your friends and the homeless outside for a one time fee, and then realizing that the economic model made 0 sense to begin with and

i mean, this is exactly how price discovery works. if you give loose usage requirements, you'll have actors who take full advantage of it. not on the people using it but ultimately on the company that pretends they can sustain somethin

i immediately noticed the same thing, but to be fair, we don't know if it's enriched by a separate service that checks the response and uses some heuristics to compute that value. If not, yeah, that is an entirely made up and usel

Not sure if I agree that the flippening is happening solely due to AI taking jobs. I think it's a factor of many complex things happening all at once. Section 174 is a big one for engineering. Another is the fact that VC money has real

Lol -- it even reads with the same exact tone as AI. For those that use it often, it's so easy to spot now. The luddites on HN that fear AI feel end up affected the most because they have no idea how to see it.

you might be missing small things to create more guardrails like effective prompting and maintaining what's been done using files, carefully controlling context, committing often in-between changes, but largely, you're not missing

correct, but what's the alternative? they're paid peanuts because it's not exactly the kind of job you ever pay out the wazoo for. the only thing that comes to mind if I'm Brian Armstrong is going all in on AI bots that

no one writes assembly, but good engineers still understand how things work under the hood

kind of ironic, because the novices are the ones that absolutely should be doing things by hand to get better at the craft.

i agree that it's currently too unstable, but the point was to show they have intent in others using it. maybe it'll be later

this is cool! i appreciate the warm invite. I really like your repo! They should include these examples in their primary repo. I did bump into halloy/icebreaker, etc but i just don't really find reading through massive repos a gre

i don't think that's quite true based on this repo: https://github.com/zed-industries/create-gpui-app i think there's some desire from within zed to making this a real thing for others to reuse.

part of me wants to dedicate time to making something with it and then creating examples/PRs -- but it's too unstable given how fast they're moving for now IMO. if anyone from Zed team can chime in and confirm, that'd be

there's basically zero documentation for Iced as it stands. They even wrote that if you're not a great Rust dev, you're going to have a bad time and that all docs are basically "read the code" until their book is wr

Zed is exactly how software should be made. Granted, I don't agree with all of their UX decisions (i think the AI panel is really bad compared to Cursor's), but good lord is the thing fast. These guys are the real deal. They built
