practicalrs··on Elon Musk confirms reallocating thousands of Nvidia AI chips from Tesla
The value of the hardware is around $360 million.

What can he get for acting to the detriment of the company in the US?

Ok, I quoted article.
practicalrs··on Ask HN: Is it a di*k move to reject pull requests with non-eng commit msgs?
You can ask the contributor to rebase the branch and rewrite commit messages.

I also would not want localized commit messages in my repos.

I'm not a company law expert. But IMO such actions would not be legal in the EU.
practicalrs··on PHP Doesn't Suck Anymore
" Performance

PHP has experienced a 400% performance increase between 5.6 and 7, and another 20% between 7 and 8. It's fast enough for most use cases, and if you need a specialized use case, use a specialized language."

practicalrs··on AI Painting Generator
Everything is great, but I'm redirected to localhost when I try to log in via Google ;)
practicalrs··on Lilos v1.0 Released: async RTOS for Cortex-M
"uses about 20 bytes of RAM"

I think it's a typo.

20 kb?

practicalrs··on My YC idea. Somebody build it
From personal experience - such startups have a hard time getting traction.

I worked in The Daily Edit https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/the-daily-edit/nmlm...

It was an AI-based news feed. What it did. You could read news on your favorite news website and it showed you missing details for articles that were present in articles from other news outlets.

It would be interesting to get the author opinion about the latest Eric S. Raymond invention https://gitlab.com/esr/autodafe
practicalrs··on Ask HN: How common is developer burnout? Have you ever been burnt out?
After 16 years of work, mostly as a freelance developer for multiple companies, I have a burnout. Fortunately, it's not an "I don't want to work anymore" - last week I had the first day that I just didn't want to work. But it never happened before. So it's like 7/10 on burnoutmetter.

But what is the hardest thing for me is that I'm not able to mobilize myself to work on my projects. I have two good ideas. It's possible that I would be able to monetize these ideas. But I'm not able to move forward. Over the years I tried to work on more than 10 own projects and none of these projects were successful. Should I start work on the 11'th and fail again? I burned out on failings ;)

practicalrs··on Show HN: GritQL, a Rust CLI for rewriting source code
"a Rust CLI" - "C 96.5% Rust 1.4%"

Not that I'm complaining ;)

Is it a new way to market a C tool?

practicalrs··on Why Rust is worse than C for programming low-level hw
"There's nothing inherent to C that prevents bad API designs like this."

I don't have any data to back this and library interface designs are so personal taste-prone, but I would say that the average Rust crate has a better API than the average C library.

practicalrs··on Why Rust is worse than C for programming low-level hw
Such fameous hacker like Zalewski should better distinguish language and library interfaces design issues.
practicalrs··on Ask HN: Is Vim Dead?
That's a lot of releases for a dead software. I had 5 bug fixes releases for a software that is in pre beta release stage ;)
practicalrs··on We Have to Start Over: From Atom to Zed
I asked Thorsten about Windows support today, he said "Zed, you mean? After Linux, I'd say.". So there is some plan :)
practicalrs··on Rust Won't Save Us: An Analysis of 2023's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities
Rust could help with some vulnerabilities that are not related to memory safety too. It's type system can help you preventing vulnerabilities that are caused by logic mistakes.
