AI ruined them for me. I used to use them all the time. Now, whenever I do, I get called out for using AI.

It's cool, but when I tested it last time, it was very, very laggy and very slow. Not sure if that's the definition of "modern".

Well, the same goes for wrong code. One wrong line can cost millions or destroy everything completely, depending on the context. It is also not very easy to recover from.

Couldn’t it easily also take over the CEO job? Pretty sure it’s easier than producing code that works and is maintainable.

Of course, he doesn’t believe in it.He profits from it most. Having me time or family time, who cares as long as the money flows, right?

Am I missing something or is there isn’t even an official LSP available for Elixir? For me, that looks like a red flag. From what I see, DX in VSCode is barebones.

It’s tough to find anything useful these days because of all the spam - especially due to AI, content. If I do use it, I usually use it to find something on Reddit.

Every month same news.

Wish everyone who is affected the best.

You’re correct :) I think I understand what you’re trying to say, and I agree, but I still don’t understand his arguments. It’s not like his company is not profitable, or the employees work not well enough

He earns so much money, of course he loves to work and doesn’t give a damn about people who don’t even earn a fraction of his salary. He also seems to forget that people who actually work for him bring these high profits for the company. How about being thankful for having smart employees who help you to keep your business so profitable?

If I were to get paid as much as he does, I wouldn’t even leave the office; I would sleep there.

It looks very pretty but the display bezels look kinda thick.

I have also the first generation and the option off was always available. It turned off NC and transparency mode.

That’s not true—these scenarios absolutely apply to casual users, like students or hobbyists who do things like video editing or photo editing. Students, for example, often need Windows-specific software for schoolwork.

Even if we ignore Windows-specific software entirely, there are still other pain points: DRM support, HDR support, certain drivers, and even the variety of package managers and ways to install things. You know what I mean—these things are nothing special for us, but for someone who’s just casually gaming or doing some creative hobbies, being forced to use the terminal to, for example, update Nvidia drivers or find a workaround to get an unsupported game launcher to work, can be a total dealbreaker

Even something as basic as swapping out PC hardware as a gamer isn’t as seamless on Linux as it is on Windows. That’s a lot of friction for someone who just wants things to “work”. And you know I’m right because if I would be wrong with all these points, we already would have a year of Linux desktops … as it’s being said every year.

You underestimate how most people just value ease of use, familiarity and don’t care about freedom and control over a system. Most don’t want to spend their time tweaking or figuring out why something doesn’t work and that’s totally fine.

Then you have more faith in humanity, or casuals, than I do. :D I mean, this was three years ago, but I don’t think much has changed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0506yDSgU7M&t=

Why would anyone want to bother with a terminal just for gaming, a little bit of browsing, casually installing mods, using Photoshop, etc.? I mean, just watch the video, and this is coming from a guy who at least knows one or two things about computers.

Plus, don’t forget, Linux also has its quirks, just like Windows, only in different areas. Like not so awesome Nvidia drivers :P

What exactly is such a big hassle with Windows? Sure, it’s bloated with trash, but again, it’s good and simple enough for everyone to use. Try explaining to a casual user that they can’t execute an exe file or use Photoshop or whatever on Linux without specific workarounds.

I agree with you partially, but a casual user just doesn’t care or bother. They don’t uninstall bloatware; in fact, I’m pretty sure most don’t even know what it means. Casual users don’t even bother to switch to dark mode or check if their monitor supports more than 60Hz—things like that. That’s also why Apple doesn’t focus on such details.

I’m not against Linux; for developers and servers, it’s awesome. But for casual users, I don’t see the appeal. There’s no reason to bother as long as it works—and it does. Do you genuinely think, that a user who complains that Windows is bad and doesn’t work, will be able to install Linux and be happy? First thing someone like that will do, is probably try to execute an exe file and the complain under some YouTube video about it.

Maybe it’s due to peripheral driver support? Not every device works without issues on Linux. Also maybe because of specific mods or tools which only work on Windows. Besides that, currently all the “awesome anti-cheat root kits”, are not supported by Linux.

There are a few reasons, but I agree with you that if you use only a handheld, SteamOS probably will work fine.

There is no bye to Windows gaming, because the casual PC gamer will still use Windows and won’t bother with SteamOS, and rightfully so, because why bother? If you can’t handle Windows, then certainly you won’t be able to live with Linux as your main system.

Windows just works for gaming and all connected devices. SteamOS maybe works well for dedicated handhelds, but I can’t imagine a casual user bothering with Linux and wondering why the newly bought xyz Bluetooth device doesn’t work on it.

Same, the true crime podcast is hilarious :D

Axum allows you to create a server in Rust. It’s a web framework, somewhat similar to the JavaScript equivalent, ExpressJS

Auth.js is not made by Vercel. Quote: “ The Auth.js/NextAuth.js project is not provided by, nor otherwise affiliated with Vercel Inc. or its subsidiaries. Any contributions to this project by individuals affiliated with Vercel are made in their personal capacity.”

That’s so awesome! My girlfriend read all her books and told me how beautifully she writes in Korean.

Definitely well-deserved!

Least error-prone and JavaScript in one sentence, I’m not sure about that, to be honest. JavaScript alone without any types in a big project is a shot in the foot, let alone the quirks JavaScript has. Apps crash when a thrown error is unhandled, etc.

I would say JavaScript is easy, but it’s definitely not the type for a least error-prone app.

I think you can enable Artifacts, which are similar to OpenAI Canvas. Recently, Anthropic also added the ability to select elements within the created Artifact and adjust them (e.g., adjust length, improve code), similar to what Canvas can do.

Matt is a “little” of his rocker

At 32:10, he asks him how, and all he answers is: the other thing people don’t know about […]. He didn’t answer the direct question but changed the subject to how it wouldn’t hurt him/them if WPE paid a fee to use the trademark; it wouldn’t be a big deal. Then he goes on about how many times WordPress is actually mentioned on the WPE sites. He continues by giving examples that WPGraphQL is not confusing for consumers, but WP Engine is. The reason? His opinion.

You're right, he answered later though with the example of reselling GPL licensed plugins. I guess I missed that at first.

I just stopped watching after an hour, after the arguments about who should actually pay the fee and who should not. No other companies seem to have to pay the 8% fee, but then he decides that WPE should do it and maybe because they hurt his feelings, they probably need to pay even more - his own words.

The whole interview feels so fake. Matt consistently avoided answering direct questions, such as whether he had to defend the WordPress trademark in the past 20 years and if so, how. Additionally, he frequently changed the subject, particularly when questioned about why WP Engine was chosen as a sponsor despite his negative characterization of them - calling them “cancer”.

It’s difficult to take the interview seriously. Very disappointing and a waste of time in my opinion.

Reminds me of that one South Park episode about Humanpad … not in a good way though

They calculate hashes for files and probably compare them to already reported ones

Amazing small game, visuals and sound! Love it. 11/10
