yeah damn, i guess that's it.

That's the dichotomy. You're either an elitist snobs or a normies. No nuance, no qualification.

Oh, you're one of those blinkered types...

"Golang is C with garbage collection" I mean, Go isn’t C with GC - it’s C with:

- first-class concurrency (goroutines, channels)

- structural typing via interfaces

- a memory model safe enough for large-scale concurrent programs

- and tooling (formatter, linter, race detector, profiler) built in from day one.

That’s not just "C with GC." That’s decades of language design evolution deliberately integrated into a cohesive, batteries-included ecosystem that others have failed at (Typescript) or just haven't reached in their lifecycle (like Kotlin).

The Pike quote you’re half-remembering is about teams btw, not about "dumbing down" - Google had (and still has) thousands of engineers working on massive distributed systems. Go’s tradeoff wasn’t "let’s design for idiots" - it was “let’s design for readability, maintainability, and concurrency at scale.”

That’s why Go codebases from 2011 still compile cleanly today with minimal changes. Try that with your "ergonomic" TypeScript stack where half your dependencies are deprecated next quarter.

What do you recommend instead of Go?

Feels like a skills issue but happy to be wrong.

how do you mean?

I go from pixel to pixel and it's exactly as I left it - wallpaper, call logs, messages, whatsapp, chrome.

it's good! you don't need a pkg folder btw - they're not a go standard. check out `internal` as it's recognised by the tool chain and may be what you want

It's fine, it sounds like you're an enterprise programmer and that suits your role/use case.

I use zed with the inbuilt terminal, additional terminals + tools like pgcli and docker. I would feel trapped/impotent using an IDE, esp combined with the lack of snappiness a java app gives you.

how so?

Can you do that on Windows/mac?

Gnome devs not withstanding, you have access to the source to change it if you want or put up a PR?

it's just an example of providing a hyper tuned tool for a given usecase. In this case, for hacking on the 37signals codebase.

I put this together after hearing how people were using n8n for the magical AI thinking blob and realising that was the only valuable bit I needed.

I extracted my code into a fairly basic CLI so you can specify the system prompt, the schema and the input and you can then pipe to another bash/shell command or use the output to drive a script.

paywalled. got a link?

Yeah - not rendering on MacOS Chrome or Firefox.

> Finally, since drivers in Linux are generally part of the kernel (there are a few exceptions, including NVIDIA), you cannot upgrade them to the latest version or downgrade them to the version that worked for you on the fly. You have to boot into a different kernel. This is extremely inconvenient and not always possible

I mean, that's just false. Most drivers are done as kernel modules and you can push/pull them in without missing a beat.

if he's talking about graphics cards or similar subsystems - you might need a reboot, much like Windows does.

IMO, this reads like a gamer reviewing Linux because they thought it would be cool without knowing much about to use it as a workstation to get shit done.

I'd love to see it too if possible - based in Aus here, contact on bio

> I wish I knew the solution to this problem

Ooh ooh, I know! It's to improve systemd for the use-cases outlined and build a really great open source init/process manager.

yep, we do

It's a shame that folks look at this and think it's awesome but then have the dawning question of "When will Google kill it?"

People building on top of this will likely want to know what the Open Source / non doomed version will be!

This didn't help.

typo on "exactly" on page. looks great tho

To expand on this, the Radioisotope thermoelectric generator also meets the criteria of no moving parts.

I'm sorry... high performance JavaScript/Typescript?

I've got a WIP markdown to blog project Im working on. I just want to dump MD in a folder and have it create a static site. Could I use this project to generate an RSS and have that added to the final static folder?

it's great to see! my only sadness is it's written in a LISPalike language which reduces the pool of contributors including myself :(

really decent and nicely done Golang! I'll pull and play with it tomorrow!

I did a similar opinionated Go stack - almost like for like but with a neat Flask style notification addition... this was done as a proof of concept more than anything.

hopefully this tinkering can be redirected to framework laptops when they release their snapdragon X based CPUs

I'm wondering if anyone has published a good battery life breakdown?

it's hard given all the variations of hardware but screen, graphics and CPU should be doable as a good benchmark.

The original study [1] doesn't say it was plant based at all:

> the Mediterranean diet score ranged from 0 to 9, with a higher score representing better adherence to Mediterranean diet. This Mediterranean diet score is commonly used for assessing adherence to the Mediterranean diet and is based on regular intake of 9 dietary components. Higher-than-median intake of vegetables (excluding potatoes), fruits, nuts, whole grains, legumes, and fish and the ratio of monounsaturated-to-saturated fatty acids was given 1 point, while the less-than-median intake of red and processed meat was given 1 point.

So not plant based, not even vegetarian!

what would be the advantage over Fedora?
