What's the advantage of additionally using rclone vs. just restic?

It's funny that I've seen people both argue that LLMs are exclusively useful only to beginners who know next to nothing and also that they are only useful if you are a 50+ YoE vete…

One of the most iconic lisp saying is literally about how every other languages are supposedly inferior to lisp, so I don't think it's a particularly good example here.

I mean I get this in theory. But the lineup of high-quality games in production with Bevy just never stops to impress me. I'm always surprised by the new cool stuff they're making …

Sadly does not work on fish because the developers does not believe that users are intelligent enough to understand the obvious and intuitive outcome of flipping ">" (a valid opera…

Yeah I aliased zi to z for this reason. z feels too much like a lottery ticket.

It already exists actually: https://github.com/TypeScriptToLua/TypeScriptToLua . I had a pretty good experience with it while trying out Love2D.

I really never understood the threat model behind this often repeated argument. Most of these installation scripts are just simple bootstappers that will eventually download and ex…

Do you have any published benchmarks?

> Some folks think you need to use Visual Studio How's the LSP support nowadays? I remember reading a lot of complaints about how badly done the LSP is compared to Visual Studio.

bootc would be more attractive for this theming use-case, if there's a 1-line method to spin up a graphical VM straight from the docker file. I looked into it, but it looks like th…

Doesn't seem to be a problem, at least for Rust: https://godbolt.org/z/fToxz3d7a . Functions with plain arguments and a struct both produce identical assembly output.

There's this other team that built an MMORPG with SpacetimeDB, in 3 months with 8 people: https://youtu.be/kzDnA_EVhTU&t=717 Seems to have paid off for them: https://play.google.co…

I've checked out the Japanese one, but I'd say that it's definitely no where near "real-world content" IMO. Just the usual tortuously slow-paced, artificially dumbed-down dialogue …

I agree with most of this, but I don't understand why you'd treat FKs as business logic. IMO, it's clearly a part of the data structure. Like, say if you have a domain that looks l…

I don't know why, but clipboard libraries tend to be really poorly implemented, especially in scripting languages. I just checked out clipboardy and all they do is dispatch binarie…

Time to cook up a PR.

I don't understand, you're replying in a thread where that very - super-experienced and productive low-level programmer - is talking about how he finds LLMs useful.

It'll probably not get as much traction as Go, but for a simpler reason that may not be as ideologically satisfying for you. It's just really hard for a new language to get real tr…

For those frustrated with the game not working, it looks like that the canvas rendering the disc can block the "Place disc" button, depending on your initial window size. To fix th…
