Ideally there is a twist where they all turn out to be toxic, and pest control-senpai clears them out.

Or you coukd just use Arch without installing an AUR helper?

Improved hardware capabilities used to come very quickly (see Moore’s Law and Dennard Scaling). However that trend is basically over, so getting higher performance hardware takes a lot of effort to make hardware specialized for certain tasks. That’s why you see there inference accelerators like Groq, SambaNova, Cerebrus, etc. However this is hardware that still is gonna go into data centers. Something innovative has to happen on the AI side for commercial-grade models to be runnable on consumer hardware.

Star Fox Zero. Sure, the story was a repeat of old game, but the gameplay was not. The controls needed more polish, but ultimately I thought the gameplay was great. I actually didn’t mind the motion controls. Most of what people complained about didn’t bother me or felt overblown.

In vim you can make some changes to a file, close vim, and then reopen the files, and then undo your changes, i.e. your undo history persists across sessions.

I use helix part-time but am forced to go back to neovim a majority of the time for a few reasons:

1. no persistent undo
2. no ctags and cscope (some C/C++ projects don’t work well with clangd)
3. niche plugins (e.g. I just found a neovim plugin that gives me a way to run ipynb files in-editor)

If 1 and 2 got fixed, I’d be a full time helix user

Depends on the nature of the project. Is it a pure software project or is it a physical device + platform? Is anything implemented yet?

There are a lot of food containers with air-tight seals that would rectify that situation.

I like cooking stews, but it’s gonna be a hassle to bring that to the workplace.

Stews are one of the easiest things to bring to the workplace. Their quality doesn’t degrade when eaten as leftovers, and they reheat very well in the microwave. What makes you think this would be a hassle?

I think you have it backwards. Coding games is complicated, and that’s why AI can’t be used to code them effectively.

I’ve been playing Sekiro lately. While it’s not generally on the top of “immersive games” lists, I find it immersive because of how cool the gameplay makes you feel. When you are just completely focused on timing each parry and reading the attacks of your enemy, it makes me feel like I’m actually in the game doing these feats. Combine that with the fact there are few cutscenes and little dialogue, and I’d say it feels pretty immersive.

It’s also the basis for a popular hardwaregeneration language, chisel. No clue why they chose it

OK, but being a victim doesn’t make you immune to this categorization. A victim of sexual abuse who rapes someone is still a rapist. Someone who was persecuted for their race who then persecutes others for their race is still a racist. Victims don’t get a “Get Out of Jail” card.

I don’t think engineers need encouragement to be cynical. More often engineers need to lighten up.

You got a source for that last sentence? I’m inclined to degree, but I’d love to see a a concrete explanation proving it.

Biggest con of KDE + Krohnkite (to me) is no text-based config. I really have no desire to pour through the GUI to set up all my keybinds. I’ve tried this setup before, and honestly I mostly like it. However anytime I want to change something I just hate having to click through a menu with my mouse. The search bar helps, but often you’ll spend a lot of time guessing what the devs decided to name a setting. I went back to Sway and have no regrets. Though I’ll admit I wish there was something that was basically Sway with the benefits you mentioned here.

OK, but not everyone produces technical debt at the same rate and not everyone takes responsibility for what they produce, so the point is still relevant.

The IEEE standard actually does not dictate a rounding policy

kitty. The ssh kitten is enough reason to use it. I work ob a lot of different systems that require OTP. Using the ssh kitten I can type the OTP once and can spawn new terminals that ssh and cd to the remote direvtory without logging in again. Obviosly the tabs and window panes are are a must too. There’s tons of other useful features that I like, like using hints to select nunbers, filenames, urls, etc in the terminal output.

Not sure I understand your comment on multithreading. pthreads are not very hard to use, and you have stuff like OpenMP if you want some abstraction. What about C is not ideal for multithreading?
