I would. If it's mandatory just include it in the advertised food prices.

Doesn't Python support futures? with ThreadPoolExecutor() as executor: one, two = executor.map(lambda f: f(), [callOne, callTwo]) I'm sure you could write a nicer helper function that's more similar to gather

Effects solve it in the sense that the caller can handle the effects to work however they like, making the functions that use the effects more reusable. E.g., if you install IO handlers that are async and call a function that does IO, it&#x

Yes, `?` automatically does `.into()`. There are plenty of reasons you can complain about Rust's error handling, but "proliferation of error types" feels like a misunderstanding of how Rust error handling works in the first p

This sounds disingenuous. They explained why the language doesn't force stack traces on all errors, and then explained how to get them if you want them.

Except anyhow is compatible in that direction. io::Error and thiserror types will automatically convert to anyhow errors.

> You act like cheating is new to video games?? No, I think the point is that with AI the existing anti-cheat measures can simply be avoided by letting the AI play through the same interface as a human. Therefore anti-cheat kernel module

The point is that these projects had worth because of what the programmer got out of the learning process, not because of the end result.

I think the problem is that we're using LLMs to do too much of the work. We should aim to design agents that use the LLM as the thinnest possible layer to translate the natural language intent into a deterministic process, minimizing r

Given that the AI companies are still operating at a loss and running on investor money, I'm not sure it's actually driven by consumer choice.

I don't know why people find it so confusing. I don't remember any kids I knew at the time being confused by it. It just provides you with two different ways to hold it: one where you're using the D-Pad, and one where you&#x2

Yeah, even in the US they were even on sale on multiple occasions.

This is the chicken-and-egg problem though. If you don't get the Linux/Steam Deck audience large enough first, then that tradeoff won't be worth it to developers.

It's on the cart page, before you check out. And I do agree that it should be much more front-and-center, rather than the sort of fine-print thing they have now. https://imgur.com/a/D1LKUUi

So publish the game on your own website? Why do you need to use Steam in this case?

If they're suffering greatly to make ends meet, then why use Steam at all? The only reason I can think of is that Steam provides a great customer experience, making that 30% worth it for the developers.

Was it outlawed in the 50s? I remember getting baseball cards with gum in the 90s...

The problem with Apple is not the 30% cut, it's that you're not allowed to use other app stores or install apps without their store.

When I check out on Steam it displays this text to me: > A purchase of a digital product grants a license for the product on Steam.

There isn't much they can do to foster native Linux support beyond trying to increase the number of people gaming on Linux. It's a chicken-and-egg problem, and you need to make the platform desirable to developers before they will

They do let you write in a higher-level language, but it's not really analogous to a higher-level programming language. The ambiguity and lack of determinism makes prompting fundamentally different from using a high level programming l

The JavaScript developers are checking in JavaScript code that they ostensibly understand. That is not the same as prompting an LLM to generate Zig that they don't understand, and expecting someone to merge it.

Using an LLM isn't analogous to using a higher level language.

If AI worked as advertised then "AI Literacy" would just be "Literacy".

It should always be "hold for control" and "tap for esc".

Why would you ever disable paste? It can only make it more likely that the user will make a mistake (and hate you for making the form harder to fill out).

AI models in general seem to get different assembly languages mixed up easily.
