Samis2001··on How to become the sole owner of your PC [pdf]
While I wait patiently for more open hardware designs to become more popular / actually used (Be it SPARC, RISC-V or something else), I wonder what AMD's equivalent functionality is like in comparison to this - I strongly doubt that no equivalent exists for AMD CPUs.
Samis2001··on Xi editor: A modern editor with a backend written in Rust
I wonder how much of that comes from the different method/implementation of storing themes in binary .edj files rather than in textual format like GTK. (Don't know enough about Qt theming to comment on that).
Samis2001··on TempleOS V4.02 Released
Smalltalk-80 and the resulting modern implementations of it follow this idea. Typically, the IDE/development tools come with the runtime environment and these allow the browse the system's code as well as inspect existing instances of object. There's also a primitive form of a built-in VCS allowing the viewing of earlier method versions and reverting to them. Finally, the underlying VM is written in a mixture of C and either Smalltalk or something resembling it.
Samis2001··on The Little Printf
Additionally, the little printf their self looks eerily similar to The Little Prince.
Samis2001··on Go Will Dominate the Next Decade
I think the author is in a Go bubble and just doesn't realise it. There is much hype and hyperbole here, but it seems like the author thinks what the world uses is the same as what those in his personal bubble use.
