How so?

What's the sota? The classic vLLM/llama.cpp? LM Studio? Unsloth studio any good?

I can't understand the psychology of people who think like this.

You really think a throwaway quote when Zuckerberg was a college student applies nowadays?

You really think Meta would risk getting a massive (losing) lawsuit on their hands, in exchange for what? Middling amounts of training data?

Why? Absolutely correct, especially considering the position of the person they're referring to

To be fair, they're not exactly wrong. Worth repeating with N=10,100,... until we get a robust conclusion, but as it is, there's not much to go on in this one

The lack of an option on Windows makes it harder to justify when alacritty + nvim achieves great speeds as well, with all the customizability and what not.

Can anyone chime in on whether using zed on wsl is viable, or loses all the speed benefits?

This is such an all-or-nothing thought. We can aim for "better", or even just "good enough", without aiming for absolute perfection or mediocrity, and things will still keep getting better.

His point is excessively perfectionistic at best, to the point of detriment, and at worst... well, it's pedantic.

To follow this analogy, isn't it possible then for someone to study precisely what the difference is, and become an expert, thus bringing us back into the level of expertise we were at at the start of the analogy?

Surely the experts didn't all learn from each other; who was the first expert? That expert surely learned in some other way, so the only thing lost at the start of the analogy is the time required for someone interested to (re)achieve mastery.
