Omarchy is the best Linux desktop experience I’ve ever had

Two words: “billable hours”

I actually got better FPS in CS2 using Linux

So it’s just a landing page…

They did raise over $500M

no one has access to it yet

no published benchmarks

no paper

no demonstrations of capabilities

The best thing about Zed is GPUI

Likely accurate

This tends to happen during pretraining phase of new models

Happened with 3.x too

Exactly this, the SNR is polluted by this anecdata because someone was able to implement a CRUD backend they couldn’t before

Most simple problems with plenty of prior art, sure

I’ve noticed the models still can’t complete complex tasks

Such as:

Adding fine curl noise to a volumetric smoke shader

Fixing an issue with entity interpolation in an entity/snapshot netcode

Find some rendering bugs related to lightmaps not loading in particular cases, and it actually introduced this bug.

Just basic stuff.

Using a tile server for this feels hilarious

This is not a new pattern in society, it has happened historically and its going to happen again.

Being displaced due to improved technology isn't anything new.

Wagons pulled by horses used to be driven by people as well.

It was certainly a gift to anyone who was able to fork those games and continue their maintenance

This is completely speculative and not factual.

A lot of work was done by the team to release the source code of many of these games.

I know TTimo did a lot of work to help.

Corporate lawyers for id wanted GPL iirc

id also released the source code to:

Wolfenstein 3D: 1995

DOOM: 1997

Quake: 1999

Quake II: 2001

Quake III Arena: 2005

Return to Castle Wolfenstein: 2010

Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory: 2010

Doom 3: 2011

Some people are still leveraging those codebases and are thankful for their releases.

Maybe just don’t read what he has to say.

If OpenAI, Anthropic, and all other US labs stopped developing LLM’s, the Chinese and Europeans would still continue.

You can’t put this genie back in the bottle, and this type of event of human labor being deprecated isn’t new.

The forecasts are still not well defined and speculative.

id Software released the source code to Wolfenstein in 1995, he was only rich at that point on merit and the success of their games.

Bethesda ended that practice.

Elaborate on your points

How has he set back gaming?

1 kind of experience?

Megatexture was also subpar and overcomplicated

Quake III Arena is OSS

He doesn’t need to keep maintaining it

Rust build times are not an enjoyable part of its DX

Get better at reviewing code

Guess I'm sticking with my 5950x and 128GB of DDR4 for a while longer, should have upgraded my system earlier this year like I was thinking

Hadn’t heard of Granian before, thinking about upgrading to 3.14 for my services and running them threaded now

They did experiment with carbon fiber if I recall correctly

Stainless steel is much more cost effective

Can you elaborate how SpaceX is an extraction/wealth transfer powerhouse?

Heroku and Vercel don’t ever have any intention of competing on price

They offer convenience
