That's pretty neat. I didn't realize how far out the GPS satellites were. Also, TIL that Hubble telescope was LEO. Wild.

Almost, but not quite yet. Hoping it comes in the next dev cycle.

No, but works fine in Rosetta emulation. And can use native libraries installed via for example the Intel Homebrew. We do hope to get native aarch64 support in the near future. Let…

Factor is not dead, but continues to make development progress. If you're curious you can find more information on the main page: https://factorcode.org The latest release of 0.100…

That's pretty cool, do you have the algorithm described anywhere?

I hope you see this comment: Please revert the "fix" that makes it so your demo is not seen at all.

I imagine package managers will start picking this up shortly since it just released publicly.

$ git clone git@github.com:ghostty-org/ghostty.git $ cd ghostty $ zig build -Doptimize=ReleaseFast $ ./zig-out/bin/ghostty

This is a neat blog post explaining part of the magic: https://gpanders.com/blog/ghostty-is-native-so-what/

What, in particular, are you looking for? Something like enum variants?

Fixed, thanks for reporting! It was correct on the main Factor website, but my blog was using the old links before we fixed the macos rename.

I agree, I've written much better Factor code. This was mainly to get a matching test case working simply...

I'm a bit biased as I've been working on and with Factor for 15 years and I am also the author of the linked article and "Re: Factor" blog. I find Factor to have a compelling sweet…

We are pretty proud of this release, it represents a big upgrade over the last one.

It won’t actually argue all sides of an issue. Take any controversial one, and it stays inside its guardrails no matter which opinion you want it to counter.

Comparative data across the Tesla fleet, by model and production years, is so interesting! I love the Tesla approach to continuous improvement, and the Nikola app seems really cool…

We did start a conversation about building a package manager, but have not had anyone champion this as a project. I admit to being a little lazy about this due to including so much…

The releases have varied over the years from less than a year, to almost two years between "releases". For some historical context: 0.93 was released April 16, 2010. 0.94 was relea…

A Factor version compares favorably at 13 lines of code, and as fast as the parallel OCaml version. http://re-factor.blogspot.com/2014/06/comparing-k-nn-in-fact...

We made stack effects mandatory for most definitions as it appeared an area of frustration with new Factor programmers. However, we have a stack checker that still supports optiona…

Although it feels likes a one programmer effort, there have been a few of us contributing consistently over the years: https://github.com/slavapestov/factor/graphs/contributors

He is working for Google. From the outside, it looks a lot like he disappeared from open source...
