It’s especially when they conquer the whole market. It’s why investors favor growth and adoption, even at a loss, until it’s won the market and can turn up the monetization dial.

I wholeheartedly agree. Bluesky had an interesting idea for identification using a domain you control to verify your account by adding a TXT DNS record for _atproto.

The problem is that it’s only a rented domain and thus a rented username. My DNS provider Porkbun offered a 5 year deal, but I would pay for much longer if I could.

Zed is fantastic. I've been making the leap from neovim to zed lately, and it's been an great experience. Everything feels snappy, and I love how well they've integrated Vim bindings. Their agent mode is nice as well. It's clearly an underdog to VSCode, so the extension ecosystem isn't quite there yet... but for a lot of the things I've used it for, it's sufficient. The debugger has been the big missing feature for me and I'm really glad they've built it out now - awesome work.

15s is fast, wow.

Do you have any metrics on which parts of the whole compiler, std, package manager, etc. take the longest to compile? How much does comptime slowness affect the total build time?

This is awesome for Zig, I think this direction is gonna be a primary differentiator when comparing to Rust.

And hey, I wrote a lot of the rendering code for that perf analyzer. Always fun to see your work show up on the internet.

Author here. I wrote this blog post to explain what software developers do, and why building a button can be harder than it seems.

Very cool, same wavelength!

Do any of these algorithms use vector embeddings to determine the semantic similarity between cards? Seems like that might be a useful parameter for tuning the algorithm, since you’re likely to forget something similar on a topic you’ve forgotten things about.

Congratulations, wishing you many more.
