I work in big tech but dabbled in games. Games are much harder. Lots of math and you have to process 8 million pixels in 16 milliseconds, in addition to running your physics and NPC AIs. Big tech is 90% CRUD and 90% squabbling over variable names and we somehow think pushing a bit of HTML in 500ms is both hard and acceptable performance.

I was going to say... Sometimes I load up my context with a ton of data. The output is shorter than the input.

Then we should create LMGPTTFY, then it's at least apparent and the recipient needn't click.

Is it called "trio" state because 3 of the 5 states are not supported?

I also like how True is -1. Beautiful all around!

Recently I've found my mind reawaken. It's about asking good questions now. The models can find the answers, but you have to know what to ask. Sometimes the model is wrong and you have to challenge it to find an alternative. Being able to explore problem spaces quickly is interesting.

I'm trying to understand why people are spinning up so many k8s clusters that they need a tool to do it for them?

I have one. And it's managed. I don't think there's significant cost savings to going unmanaged, but maybe. Even so, why would I need a ton of them?

I'm finding this out the hard way. I set out to build a 1 page app. I thought it would take a day. It's 98% vibe coded at this point. Even with AI implementing everything, its taken several weekends and many evenings. And not because AI is doing a bad job its just that as i see it come together, i have more and more feature requests. I've got a couple dozen left but I can't just let the AI chew through them all at once. Im effectively QA now. Have to make sure everything is just right.

Can you fix the CLI on Windows? You broke it a few versions ago. 'zed --version' and all the other flags don't work. Maybe broken command parser or something, im not sure. Zed with zero flags still launches it. I particularly want to be able to pass it filenames for quick opening and --new and --wait. Used to work. Thanks!

That answers nothing. What is a "programming system"? If it were a programming language, they'd say that.

I've wrapped fetch a few times but i don't think I'd blame someone if they got tired of wrapping it and wanted a consistent interface across all the projects they work on.

Sometimes i like to jj describe before writing any code. It helps with mental clarity what i intend on writing or helps if i have to run away mid coding session (description will show in log so i can find it again)

In this scenario I'd instead jj new at the end, after im finished and ready to move on to the next thing.

We can adapt by shutting down social media. We don't really need that. It's been pretty bad since before the AI wave took off.

Seven figures is indeed more than five figures. Too bad they're all 7s.

I think that's part of the joke. iseven is a real, non-joke package.

I'm kind of excited about that though. What I've come to realize is that automated testing and linting and good review tools are more important than ever, so we'll probably see some good developments in these areas. This helps both humans and AIs so it's a win win. I hope.

Disappearing asterisks is just terrible UX. It should turn bold but keep the asterisk displayed so you can still edit as normal.

The bullet point problem is fixed by only bolding when the asterisks are on either end of word characters.

This thread is giving me flashbacks from my university. I lived on campus so i got to explore at night whenever.

I don't know how to explain the feeling. I wouldn't call it peaceful. A little eerie but also kind of exciting. My campus was a bit odd. Some 'brutalist' architecture and dungeonesque parts. I miss it now.

There was a vending machine that would randomly add 10 cents to itself every couple minutes. If you waited long enough you could get something for free. Lights that would turn on by themselves. Doors that would open randomly. Might have been haunted.

I feel like this is true. I don't mind being a blip behind the bleeding edge if I don't have to change my tooling every month. But the second my current provider tries to screw me over, I'll still jump ship

What ambiguities are there with bold?

I work on one such repo. It's perhaps the largest repo in existence. But i think what makes it slower is the file system. As i understand it, it only transfers files over the network as they're read. So grepping everything is a lot of network transfer. Very slow.

I don't know how it would. Hackers would just claim everything is a security update.

Unless maybe you give special permission to some trusted company to designate certain releases of packages they don't own are security patches... But that sounds untenable.

23 hours later too... Hungry dog.

Took me a minute to realize this is literally about stationary objects (paper!).

Hotel paper & envelopes to be more precise. Amusing.

Even if its obfuscated, there should be a comment above it saying what it is. This is bad developer hygiene.

I think that's the point, and it's refreshing to see. My takeaway is that even if everything goes as good as it possibly could go, there will still be a need for that human touch.

Just saying that everything is going to go to shit and one or two corporations will take over everything... Maybe, but I've heard that story already.

And here i got best compression out of xz for SQL.

That's also one of the things that worries me the most. What kind of data is being sent to these random endpoints? What if they to rogue or change their behavior?

A static set of tools is safer and more reliable.

O(depth) too, no? The events have to bubble up to the window before triggering your handler.

This doesn't appear to be true. My Plex media server is ancient and it really struggles if it has to do any kind of transcoding. Definitely can't handle high bitrate 4k stuff.

This seems unnecessarily hostile. They are asking. Here.
