I want to see more models that can be streamed to a browser and run locally via wasm. That would be my hope for small models. In the <100mb range.

Interesting. I had only heard this in the context of Apple before and not Amazon. There is a clip from a Steve Jobs video describing how you need to work backwards from the end use…

But Arc is native. They are building it in Swift. They have even taken on a mammoth task of building their windows version in Swift!

I was already fascinated by Elixir, but this video drove the nail home. It's a great presentation and I don't think I have watched any conference talks (on YouTube) without taking …

It's there in the text but it is not formatted as a link. It would have been nicer if we could click on the footnote to go back to the text. 1. You can search for Space Quest 2. Se…

Hoping more companies like frame.work[1] come up and succeed. They have shown it is possible and the laptop need not be bulky or very expensive and still be repairable. [1]: https:…

Dear ImGui is excellent and is very handy to make GUI version of a CLI app especially if we want to interactively set values and see results. It is fairly low level (deliberately) …

I am piggy-backing on this to ask if there is a good networking library to handle OAuth2 (client side). I came across cpprestsdk[0] but it was a pain to setup with some OpenSSL con…

There are many. But none of them are considered the ‘default’ way to do it. vcpkg[1] by Microsoft is the newest kid on the block which is gaining some traction. Apart from that Con…

Eclipse foundation has a new project, Theia[1], which forks VSCode and one of the reasons they state is that the extension ecosystem is not opensource. They want Theia to be a tool…

Congrats! This looks great. The website and the info presented looks very well thought out! In the features section would really like to see about how Text rendering is handled by …

Relm looks promising. Actually there are a couple of promising GUI libraries coming up in Rust.

Congrats on the launch. Are there plans for SDKs in various languages or is this going to be JS only for now? Why I ask is that I like the simplicity of Firebase as a back-end and …

I completely agree. Hot take: If SMT, SAT are too simple to be given the coveted badge of AI, then Machine learning should be called as glorified curve-fitting? I feel that everyon…

The big value of the visual representation is if it is dynamic. That is, it gets updated while you are running the code and can use it during debugging. Otherwise, the novelty wear…

This looks great (both Supabase and Nhost)! Years ago I wanted a self-hosted version of the real-time subscription of Firebase and had come across DeepStream[1]. It now seems to be…

This video about Biomimicry is a great accompaniment for this article https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMtXqTmfta0

Sorry for piggy-backing on this thread, but is there a simple tool which will let me do a screen capture and annotate it. Something like ScreenFlow on Mac. I use Peek for screen-ca…

Any discussion about desktop GUI toolkits should be preceeded by this article: http://blog.johnnovak.net/2016/05/29/cross-platform-gui-trai...

Yes, that’s good advice. I was referring to the concept of gitignore in general. At least when I learnt git from some tutorials, gitignore was treated like an advanced topic and I …

I wish I had learnt about gitignore sooner when I first learnt to use git. Especially if you are using an IDE and it generates a ton of files.

I have been looking for something exactly like borg but never showed up in my google search. Thanks for mentioning borg

There was also the Blackberry Storm which had a physically clicking screen[1] and I thought it (the tech) would take off and be the next big thing! [1]: https://youtu.be/bLkb8HLZ_v…

I think a lot of the good practices and skills necessary to ship good quality software are not documented well (or formalized). That's why working with good teams and learning from…
