dzogchen··on C++26 Disapproved
No they are not. The standard may be delayed but most compilers ship these features already.
dzogchen··on Dutch government had hacked into Jared Kushner's phone
I feel like the headline here should be different.
dzogchen··on Local Wikipedia: Wikipedia, but only for things a half hour walk from you
Very cool idea. Would be even better if it had an option to use a local language.
dzogchen··on Vite+ an excellent toolchain for AI agent development
Really? According to Pangram the Czech article is 94% AI written. So it's wrong?
dzogchen··on Vite+ an excellent toolchain for AI agent development
Fair critisism, but it's not a paid product.
dzogchen··on Show HN: Sphinx – A hook that quizzes you on your AI's code before shipping
> And for what?

How about to meet an aribrary deadline your boss set? Or how about a deadline needed that keeps the company afloat? Are you going to tell your boss: we need 6 more months because it's irresponsible to ship code we don't fully understand?

dzogchen··on Apple Keynote now showing ads in its UI
Time to vibe code an OG Keynote clome...
dzogchen··on Bun check – a TypeScript type checker builtin to Bun
Why does this have only three upvotes?
dzogchen··on Why Common Lisp is now the best programming language
Extremely token hungry though. Which will be a problem once the price goes up!
dzogchen··on Find the flattest route between any two points in SF
Thanks. Not visible on mobile here.
dzogchen··on Friendship ended with Deno, now Node is my best friend
Node.js has a built in test runner and it is excellent. https://nodejs.org/api/test.html

Not sure if the runtime should be responsible for linting of type checking.

If that's OpenStreetMap data, it is missing the required attribution.
dzogchen··on A map of every lighthouse
I want my minute back.
dzogchen··on GPT 6.1 Sol: Near-Astra intelligence for a fifth of the price
I feel a little salty about the plan changes. I wanted to upgrade to the $200 plan a day after it was blocked. Now it only includes half the usage unless for those that got grandfathered into the x20 usage.
dzogchen··on US sanctions force The Netherlands off Microsoft and toward alternative NixOS
Well, that's that the European Central Bank calls it. https://www.ecb.europa.eu/euro/digital_euro/html/index.en.ht...
dzogchen··on US sanctions force The Netherlands off Microsoft and toward alternative NixOS
Do you mean accelerate the digital euro plans?
dzogchen··on Go Concurrency Distilled
Ahh you got me. Finished the first chaper of the 'free online' Gist of Go book, then in the second chapter it turns out the first chapter was a freebie.
dzogchen··on Claude discovers a novel enzyme system with CRISPR-like repeats
The title says "Claude discovers" not "Anthropic discovers". The latter would be fair since they seemed to have funded the research. "Claude discovers" is just marketing hype.
dzogchen··on Mistral raises €3B
Yes it is...
dzogchen··on Trey Parker and Matt Stone Are Changing the Name of South Park to South America
Waiting for the Nitter link...
dzogchen··on deSEC – Free Secure DNS
> well worth the price of admission

A strange thing to say about something that is free

dzogchen··on Hacking with Claude on a $27 smart watch
I did exactly the same with my favorite 2014 Pebble app.

dzogchen··on After wearing the Pebble Time 2 for two weeks, I'll never buy another smartwatch
Cannot relate. I do not have notifications enabled on my Pebble.

I don't have any guilt over not having enough steps at the end of the day. But I am walking more thanks to my smartwatch.

I can start a timer in seconds when I am meditating, when I am cooking, when I am starting the watching machine. Also I have made a little app that shows me the weights and reps and sets I need to do for my powerlifting programme. I don't have to bring my phone to the gym. Lastly, I made a little app that shows me one thing I need to be doing for my morning routine or the next TODO on my todo list. A god send for someone suffering from ADHD.

dzogchen··on Road to Elm 1.0
Looks like for the first time in 7 years https://iselmdead.info/ is accurate.
dzogchen··on Organic Maps
‘Ads’ is a bit of a stretch. They put opt-in referral links.
dzogchen··on AI's Affordability Crisis
> To generate the $309 billion needed to service their debt, the AI industry will need to replace 46.8 million jobs, equivalent to around 27% of the current number of jobs in the US.

Lump of labour fallacy spotted.

dzogchen··on Leaving Mozilla
This. They learned nothing from Netscape.
dzogchen··on Apple decided not to roll out Siri in EU after denied request for exemption
There is a way to implement this functionality in an interoperable way that complies with the DMA. Apple just chose not to. Not because it's impossible to implement it in a privacy-respecting way, it just wants to lock people into their ecosystem, the exact thing DMA is protecting users against.

Apple realized its standard malicious compliance playbook won't fly this time, so now they're trying to sway public opinion by not rolling out this feature in the EU. It won't work. They're just going to lose market share and will have to backtrack when they do. Tech regulation doing its job.

dzogchen··on Elixir v1.20: Now a gradually typed language
What's excellent about it is that almost all exercises do not just include the problem statement, but also an explanation of Elixir syntax and standard libraries. There's also a ton of resources to in-depth resources. And there are extensive dependencies configured between exercises so you learn everything in a gradual way.

So all in all, a lot of love and effort has been poured into the Elixir track specifically.

dzogchen··on Elixir v1.20: Now a gradually typed language
The past month I have been going through the Elixir exercism.io track https://exercism.org/tracks/elixir

It is really excellent!
