I think there is a very clear open spot where Jai fits in otherwise why would google be doing the same thing with their carbon language. People want a better c++. It should compile fast, have all the low level stuff of C. Have Metaprogrammi

You have to use gdb unless you are using windows unless there is another debugger for linux that I'm not aware of. Watched the video and you pretty much have everything mentioned in it with just an lsp, compiler flags and a command tha

This reflects my experience with it so far but I see so many claims of multiplicative "productivity" boosts but there's always a lack of concrete examples of what this means. Avoiding a quick google/stack overflow search

I was frustated with the sheer amount of essays I was helping out my nephew with. It felt like every single week he had an essay from multiple classes, and it was always the same b.s for every single one. I just couldn't see the point

This has always seemed to be like the best aproach. You never want people that gravitate towards positions of authority to be in such positions. For positions that require some degree of competence you have to settle with what you get, but

Raytracing isn't a thing no matter how much nvidia wants to push it. The performance penalty is too big for what amounts to something that takes a trained eye to notice. AI-resolution scaling is nice to have on lower end devices but th

I only use linux for daily use but deploying software on it is the worst out of any OS that I know of with windows being the best. Every update can potentially break things because who knows what changed in that library you depend on, and i

The unix philosophy of having small programs that take in input, process it and return a result has proven to a success, I just never understood why the next logical step of having this program in library form never became a thing. I guess

Do you have any examples of these workflows or what sorts of results are possible. For me ChatGPT has been relegated to synonyms and small trivia lookup. I've been keeping an eye out for such things but I've stopped checking on it

isn't CLOS OO based on generic functions and not objects? as far as I know Lisp doesn't have objects in the OO sense either.

No, its more like "If they remove the Supreme court and install political puppets, I'm moving from the US". My example doesn't really work though cause the US supreme court has always been filled by political puppets but

This has to be a racket to extract as much public money as possible. At least in the US and in most cities I have been, projects take years and they usually only send a few guys to work on it about once per week. A few years later they sudd

Doesn't seem like a myth regardless of who debunks their interpretation of what 'dark ages' means. Things before and after the fall of the western empire seem quite different, maybe it wasn't the fall of the western empi

There are reliefs of Ramses II fighting on a chariot and he's from the 1200-1300 BC, so the wheel must have been used much earlier than that by Egyptians.

I was hoping the article would compare how writing code and writing a fantasy, sci-fi, etc. novel are very similar. I find writing stories to be a better analogy to use with programming than civil engineering or architecture. Its very easy

I get the point but I do agree that it might not be a good analogy since when building structures people might disagree on where they should go but not on what a wall and a door are. In software your caretfully crafted "house" can

I don't think including Felipe Calderon was a wise choice, his 'war on drugs' is seen as him just wanting to take out the other cartels and replacing them with his own. Did the cartels take him out? I doubt it. Its an open se
