thank you

Nice. I'm already aware of handmade.network. I was plan on joining but lost track of it. handmadecities also look interesting. Will take a look. Might take until end of month.

This is my passion project. (Less activity these days as I'm sick)

Indeed, Leetcode is just slightly harder (or easier even) fizzbuzz anyway.

If you are given really hard questions in an interview or they ask for dumb invert binary tree like questions. It is most likely that person who interviews you is lazy or does not want to hire you but have no choice but to interview you.

I beleive pair programming interviews are the best. As they can be 1) Time limited so you don't take home and waste your time. 2) Can be a portion of a real world problem.

Also it does not matter that a person is loyal, loyal ones can be fired too.

What are these books you speak of? I would like to read them. Thanks in advance.

I'm very scared. Eventually ChatGPT/LLMs will come to full AGI levels (it is very close now), and replace not just software engineering jobs, I think it might replace majority of the jobs to nothing. If we do not have a safety net (something like Universal basic income), most people would simply starve to death. I think everyone from grave digger to neurosurgeon can be replaced. Ex: If it can replace a software engineer, why not CEO, managers. And why not whole companies to be honest. Whole governments. Teachers, Parents (and even children - go have an AI child),etc? Just a matter of spinning up more machines? So the next few years are going to be most critical.

But not the Star Trek economy / elimination of money. So some of us will starve while we get there. :(

> But personally, I think this might be a good productivity booster, but will take another 10 years to really change how work is done.

Hopefully!

I have to act on opportunity indeed.

haha

Interesting take this is something to think about thank you.

too fat for that. probably a good time to prepare hehe

Such a useful tool!

Why not put your wife/husband/partner to a full time job? and get stability through them.

I did not want to use that because LLVM was just too big! I tried building a sample and it gave me > 1GB debug .exe file.

zig wraps things up to a nicer package, so I thought might as well use zig cc.

Thank you

Hey, thank you. good catch

Had no idea this was a thing. Yaksha - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yaksha.

Logo is based on traditional Sri Lankan Yaka/Yaksha/Raksha mask.

not yet that is.

That is the point!

Nice !

Boom! it is an unsafe language. Hence the fire devil logo.

Everything compiles to a big .c file. capntr - tool that acts as builder knows which part of runtime to compile and link. Imports are not dynamic like python. Does not have all the features of Python import also.

Glad you liked it.

yes

Sorry, not so good with CSS. Home page should look better I think. :) Will fix it at some point

Sure, main goal was fun. But I should have a write up some time.

I wanted to see following:

1) Does manual memory management become easier when you use python-esque syntax? 2) OpenCL with @device like syntax so you can mix kernel code and client code in same .yaka file. - Not even started (Not sure if achievable with my time constraints)

Yes I agree. Time will tell how it will grow. Hopefully it will have a good use.

I think mainly

1) Easy to parse (less ambiguous) 2) We like Python
