    It is made to perform much better than your typical electron app would. Saying electron-based == shitty is complete misunderstanding of the technology. Although i dislike Figma as …

    Did I? Not only are you comparing apples to oranges, you even provide misleading numbers. 3090 gets 20-30 tokens a second for dense ~30B models (QwQ 32B, Gemma 3 27B Q4), similar t…

    Are you aware that your 3090s have nowhere close to 256GB of VRAM? Or maybe you are not aware that on macs you have unified memory (working both as RAM and VRAM).

    I like Gemini CLI and I got a lot of value from their free tier, and I'm now on the $20 sub. But it is a level bellow the usefulness of Claude Opus 4.6.

    What if I didn't know the words yet? Usage of totally unintuitive icons is obviously wrong. Colors can be helpful too. Colored text - not as concise as recognizable icons. Another …

    I disagree completely. I have hard times parsing the text. Simple icons are a life saver for me in big data tables

    There could be factories manufacturing your own design, just one piece. It won't be economical, but can be done. But parts are still the same - chunks and boards of wood joined tog…

    That is not a technical constraint and may be automated if it made sense financially. Same with software - for some time software won't be all designed, coded, tested, deployed to …

    I turned on this overspend and limited the spending to $20. A day later I checked my spending, I had used "295%" of my limit. Almost $60. No idea why it didn't respect my setting.

    pro is the $20, right? It runs out quickly, especially using opus. But what do you expect for that kind of money? For serious work at least Max $100 is needed.

    As an ADHD person, the landing page is absolutely anti-ADHD - a lot of stuff with basically no info about what it really does. It should have been all concise and tangible informat…

    I disagree with the vibecoding take. Its a new skill that absolutely has a place in developers skillset and it may be of great importance for some kinds of projects. You can learn …

    How about the rest of the resources? CPU/GPU? Would your work not be affected by inference running?

    Comment #46349965

    If you have inference running on this new 128GB RAM Mac, wouldn't you still need another separate machine to do the manual work (like running IDE, browsers, toolchains, builders/bu…

    Exactly this. I've used Jenkins, Travis, CircleCI and all of them were so easy in comparison to the github actions runner mess.

    Nice game. But the stars in the background were confusing and hard to distinguish between them and projectiles. That got me killed way too many times.

    I'm on a team like that and I see it happening in more and more companies around. Maybe "many" does a heavy lifting in the quoted text, but it is definitely happening.

    Why do you find "vibe coding" term dumb? It names a specific process. Do you have a better term for that?

    If you knew GraphQL, you may immediately see it - you ask for specific nested structure of the data, which can span many joins across different related collections. This is not the…

    Using electron at least uses some UI primitives from chromium. Flutter has thrown away all the usability and robustness of existing components and just reimplemented everything. It…

    Regarding hyperrogue, I've seen it mentioned multiple times as a fun game. I tried to play it but I had found no fun in it at all. The non-euclidean take is interesting, but it fel…
