    Opened this page in Firefox and my CPU fan started spinning like crazy. All this for a background that just renders the whole page unreadable. Stop. Seek help.

    I'm in this quote and I don't like it.

    Since it's a personal project, Linux compatibility is the only thing I care about right now. I'm testing it under WINE as well, just because I can, but I don't have access to Mac O…

    I feel like one of the takeaways here is that Rust protects your code as long as what your code is doing stays predictably in-process. Touching the filesystem is always ripe with r…

    I noticed the performance issues too. I started using Jan recently and tried running the same model via llama.cpp vs local ollama, and the llama.cpp one was noticeably faster.

    Thank you. I also found it exhausting to read so many short sentences that just assert little pieces of information without saying anything of substance.

    In my university, probably because the CS department at the time was an underfunded offshoot of the faculty of Mathematics, we basically didn't have access to computers (and I didn…

    To us, all the profit. To you, all the risk.

    So you're saying that the slop thus produced is not the responsibility of the human authoring the PR? I would assume it is, regardless of how it was produced.

    This article has a weird tone. It directly criticizes the results of this AI-driven coding effort (which the author admits is of bad quality), while at the same time it tries to re…

    Helix is my default, as it's a more mature/stable editor. I fire up Flow Control from time to time to follow how it's developing and for more casual editing. They both do an excell…

    I, too, mourn the death of Howl. It was a quirky yet surprisingly "comfortable" editor. But I am now at home with Helix and Flow Control.

    Okay, you go get treatment at that facility if it's working as well as you insist. Besides, whether the facility is (partially!) operational today is besides the point. Your origin…

    ...What an odd and dishonest framing of the problem. Do you define "hospital not destroyed" as "some walls are still standing"? Because an easy counterpoint to your claim is the Al…

    The quality of the benchmark code is... not great. This seems like Zig written by someone who doesn't know Zig or asked Claude to write it for them. Hell, actually Claude might do …

    Great timing: I just received a Copilot spam email from GitHub. I don't remember opting in to such marketing communications, instead I generally opt-out from such communications as…

    I came here to suggest the same! It's incredibly handy and I use it all the time at work: there's a process that runs for a very long time and I can't be sure ahead of time if the …

    There is a C backend, so you can also compile Zig into C if you want.

    There are way too many TLDs for this to be even practical: https://data.iana.org/TLD/tlds-alpha-by-domain.txt I agree that especially larger players should be proactive and registe…

    Yes, practically all of my projects are private and visible only to me. Servers IIRC are located in the Netherlands. It's free to use with limitations, and financed by donations fr…

    For personal projects, I'm hosting them on https://git.disroot.org/ >. It's backed by Forgejo, and for my simple needs it's plenty.

    In defense of Foot, I installed the corresponding Nerd Font and it worked with no extra configuration at all. Well done!

    Yep, and that's all configuration I'd rather not have to spend time on. I was giving the Ghostty example to show how one of them Just Works™. (But the project goals might just be d…
