cant tell if vibecoded or not, function comments seem slightly redundant, either way its a cool idea, cant wait to see the language server written in basic also :D

its a fantastic achievement and the guy seems amazingly talented, is it a big achievement? leaves me feeling flat... maybe im just jealous lol.

i knew i should have learnt how to write klingon or drow as a teen.

have to use a local llm for that if thats how you wish to use them.

and this is why people do scare me.

marketing. humans are quite reactive to certain stimuli

linux

its definitely a double edged sword. individual developers are generally screwed financially. if you can make something sass you might be able to monetise it but chances are theres a better free version floating around or that the majority of people just dont want to think about computers and will pay m$lop instead. you could sell your idea to investors i guess but thats heavy sales. should software dev even be a paid profession? with enough tools, automation would be within everyones reach, i think thats where we are headed in general.

> In America, however, anyone can become wealthy.

its mostly luck, not merit ;)

sorry everyone, sometimes i go down these rabbit holes

maybe class struggle was the wrong terminology, but the more i see of problems in the world the more i start to think its about money/power vs "all the other busywork" we get bombarded with daily.

i always thought there were two reasons for AI interest on HN.

1. since AI has captured the imagination of capitalists and they think this is the next industrial revolution, they gotta be in it to win it. combined with the fact that i believe most people here are wealthy or at least aspirationally so, that explained half of it.

2. the other half is that AI as a tech is interesting from a mathematical and compsci point of view, tho certainly not interesting enough to justify the proportion of topics about it here.

i guess i should add a 3rd reason.

3. ycomb has a financial stake in spreading the news about how wonderful this tech is!

lolol

never heard of the eisenhower matrix but my time management resonates with what you wrote. ill try forcing q2 stuff earlier as well as ive noticed it never gets done! yes, the default outcome is depressing.

i think people trying to argue that we would be more productive is a symptom of the productivity disease. where all we value is productivity and thats the only way we can justify more non-work time. i personally just think we should all have more time to do what we want, whether that is being productive on personal projects, talking to people, playing games, or doing nothing. happier people right? why should 10% of the richest people enslave the rest of us.

edit: forget dems v pups, black v white, democracy v communism, its all about class struggle, probably always has been. i bet those 10% can pick and choose how productive they want to be and how much spare time they have lol.

+3.5h extra battery life is a real measurable result! well done.

nice post, lately ive been dealing with concurrency, between threads and processes. trying to keep it cross platform as well, its a lot to learn. if you have large buffers and want to keep some semblance of performance, its VERY interesting understanding all the transfer mechanisms and cache levels involved. i feel these are the sorts of things my education skipped, it was all very focused on the static structure of objects not the dynamics of data transfer.

sounds like youre working at the wrong place. detailed computing knowledge and maths is essential in some industries and like you said, scorned in others. i couldnt think of anything worse to do with my time than spend all day with mba's or webdevs (lol im sorry thats unfair, web development is complex with all the callbacks and sync issues).

sounds painful, just searched on "how can i get ms office running in linux using wine" and the results included a containerised windows vm that looks very interesting. but yes i agree, they seem to have gone to a lot of effort to make office use a billion microservices that would be a nightmare to run through wine.

edit: nvm, the docker vm thing looks really slow, id rather use libreoffice (which is quite good really). and now europe is trying to cut the umbilical you can probably expect a lot more open source productivity stuff in the near future too.

yes at some point broken trust dictates that no amount of fixing will ever fix it.

>If I game doesn't run on Linux, I don't play it. Simple as that.

yes ive reached that point too.

its worth trying really really hard to get windows apps running through wine before reaching for a vm imho. once you open a vm you have to deal with ... well... windows.

been on linux for a month now, i found the exit and stepped through it. the pain points change from getting shafted by m$ to doing research and learning how to make the system work. at least the second option gives me some agency, and now its all set up i wish i had of switched sooner! ive got to say valve is doing the lords work, along with all the other linux enthusiasts.

i bet you its in aid of advertising somehow

isnt it the same sort of reason you guys have actors for presidents? its about how well you can sell the message, not how good you are behind the scenes, thats what normies are for.

australia and america have the same agreement. these countries may be dragons but live in fear of losing their hoard (borrowing that analogy from https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47963204)

i was beginning to wonder if this is the new world we're living in now where such things are casually discussed

not to be conspiratorial but stolen? or given away...

stay thoughtful and focused on the tech industry or other nerdy subjects and dont get emotional and make one line snarky comments that immediately attract an avalanche of downvotes and risk getting your account shadow banned.

people space, storage space, operations space... everythings a space? too basic? what about space and flow, flow of people, flow of light, flow of food, transitions etc... heh, this is fun

seems like a made up hook, you come up with something. i like the "everythings a file" idea in linux. you can go a long way with a strong concept like that.
