Tauri wraps around the system's web view, so it's semantically equivalent to Electron. (nb: system web views are very inconsistent, so they're considering adding a Chromium renderer, wh…

Certainly, but I'm sure there's a more descriptive name than "cask"!

Please kill the Homebrew terminology if you can! Its idiosyncratic names are the bane of my existence; it might have been cute in 2010, but it's frustrated me ever since. I don't want to mem…

I believe anon-kode is a decompiled Claude Code, so it should work identically when paired with Claude.

Well, they're being trained with reinforcement learning now, so I, for one, am excited to see what kinds of unique extremely performant insanity they'll produce in the future =D

Good lord, man, you don't have to be that much of an asshole about it.

Plenty of games have, with the most famous example being Valve's games, which (eventually) ship the same tools Valve uses for game creation.

This is true, but one must communicate the issue one step at a time :-)

Seems like the dig dug into you to make you respond like this.

A technology that can create new technology is quite important for technologists to keep abreast of, I'd say :p

And software rules the world ;) More seriously: software can drive hardware, and software can be endlessly replicated. The ramifications of these for those of us living in the physical world may be su…

You won't catch me defending them ;)

The mark of an advanced shell scripter is knowing not to do advanced shell scripting. (This statement primarily applies to existing stringly-typed scripting languages, which are nightmarish to maintai…

The concept of "the Pythonic Way" indicates to me that there are people who are proud of being Python programmers. May God have mercy on their souls.

Sure. It's probably not a good thing we have spaces designed to cook the brains of users to the extent that their weakest links are driven to act on their worst impulses and commit ideologically-…

There's a difference between monkey-see-monkey-do and intentional group self-radicalisation. You don't become a racist neo-Nazi teenage mass murderer de novo .

I'm an AI fan, but there's clearly a desperate attempt by just about every tech company to integrate AI at the cost of genuinely productive developments in the space, in a manner that one mi…

Incredible. Thank you for sharing.

This author has a tendency to be condescending about things they find disagreeable. It's why I stopped reading them.

There's an uncomfortable truth backing this, at least for me: revising the code of a LLM and changing my cursorrules is easier than fixing up a junior's code and teaching them _why_ I'd…

That is a surprisingly cynical take; the marine biologists in question seemed pretty enthusiastic in the video!
