No, just that it’s easy to change for those that don’t like it. Clearly some people do like it (including Dan, presumably).

I mean, if it really bothers you you could fairly trivially apply picocss or whatever to it using a user stylesheet. That is so little effort that calling it working for free would…

That’s comparing Luna on medium thinking with Deepseek on max. If you switch Luna to xhigh in that comparison it’s considerably more capable while still also cheaper.

...Unity made a blog post saying they were happy about you moving to Unreal, publishing they think it'd be a win-win, then outlining why they think so I mean, that makes it all sou…

This is amazing! Very refreshing in the age of AI to see so much manual building going on. Sadly I don’t have much time myself but I have several friends who would love this, I’ll …

The always excellent Oatmeal: We need to have a conversation about wombats https://theoatmeal.com/comics/wombats Possibly NSFW, depending on your W.

...parents are also responsible to lock their alcohol, drugs or guns... No they're not - all those things are illegal for children nearly everywhere.

One thing that would be useful in the readme is instructions on how to install the built app on a phone, for those of us who don’t do iOS development.

I agree, some of the examples look very nice, but some have small-scale vortices that really don't look realistic. That said though, lovely site and project!

Or if the code is really important, sometimes even “please make no mistakes” is necessary.

Perhaps not in that one, but in plenty more: https://www.972mag.com/lavender-ai-israeli-army-gaza/

Because just firing up Claude and let it rip Based on Tridge’s post, this seems an unfair characterisation of how he used Claude. Did Claude increase bugs in rsync? TFA answered th…

Tridge in his blog post describes people as "foaming at the mouth"?! Did you see the picture in the article where the user posted a picture of them strangling the maintainer? I thi…

I always remember when, as a young geek writing games for my C64, I was thrilled when I saw the Terminator and a lot of the code scrolling past in its HUD was 6502 assembly code!

That is really interesting, and very clever - thanks for the details! What you describe is indeed what I meant by whole world, I'm not sure if there's a better term of art for it.

I can't speak for the core team, but from memory invokedynamic took a long time to become performant. So if you still want to support older JVM versions, the performance will be pr…

That is very cool indeed. Are there limitations that this imposes? Is Julia a whole world compiler or does it support partial compilation?

Clojure (AFAIK) does not use invokedynamic, except perhaps in the latest version for some of the new interop stuff. It still officially supports JVM 1.8 bytecode. It’s a language w…

No, it doesn't. In JVM Clojure's case, the vars are usually compiled to the moral equivalent of a global variable holding a pointer to a function. This allows you to update the fun…

Great article, as always. There is one thing that I think is important to bear in mind when discussing inlining, especially in the context of Clojure. This is that once a function …
