    Thanks for providing the query and a link to execute it (I didn't know about that one). Now I can play with it and find the most popular words... "to", "the", "of". I don't know wh…

    Note that it's also possible to review changes afterwards. Many (human) teams have been working like this. I agree that many vibe-coders are likely to skip reviews completely, but …

    Note that there are no mp3 files at all. It's a player for module files (e.g. .mod, .xm, etc.) If you'd like to download module files, https://modarchive.org is a good reference.

    You'll find it here: https://chiptune.app/?play=FwwaT5Rc As mentioned in other comments, chiptune.app seems to be a better project and has been maintained for years ( https://githu…

    Is there a way to set the default unit? I'd prefer to see the information per 100g by default (instead using random units).

    For security reasons, the VSCode marketplace is not accessible, but many (in the 3-digit range) external extensions have been imported. One technical limitation is that some extens…

    It's VSCode, so it's 90% similar to https://vscode.dev There are internal extensions, but they don't dramatically change the look and feel. I think many VSCode users are not famili…

    As far as I remember, this "IDE in cr/" explanation was found afterwards.

    I'm not sure about the dates. At some point (2014?), the use of IntelliJ was discouraged in favor of Eclipse. One year later or so, the decision was reversed and the effort focused…

    I can't check when Cider got started. I was probably wrong (it wasn't much used in my circles at that time), I'll update the post.

    Although the tool is internal, a lot of information about it is not confidential. As the team had to collaborate with the VSCode team, we got clearance for sharing information abou…

    There have been lots of discussions around AI in the demoscene. Revision limits how you can use AI ( https://2026.revision-party.net/competitions/general-rules/ ), even if it's not…

    Interesting topic. I appreciate the effort that went into this, there are some good animations. But I find this kind of presentation much harder to read than a classic blog post. I…
