programming since i'm 7 (MSX-LOGO), programmer (Ruby, Haskell, Java, Kotlin), vegan, dad, utopia-is-around-the-corner, electronic music makes me dance.

  1. This is an interesting case. It may be good to feed it to other model and see how they do.

    Also: it may be interesting to port it to other languages too and see how they do.

    JS and Py are but runtime-typed and very well "spoken" by LLMs. Other languages may require a lot more "work" (data types, etc.) to get the port done.

  2. Oopsie. Yeah that was GNOME. My bad.
  3. You do need some fancy in-house way to migrate old JSONs to new JSON in case you want to evolve the (implicit) JSON schema.

    I find this one of the hardest part of using JSON, and the main reason why I rather put it in proper columns. Once I go JSON I needs a fair bit of code to deal with migrartions (either doing them during migrations; or some way to do them at read/write time).

  4. ..and it does not make "certain queries easier" (quote from the article).
  5. I also think Apple knew they rather wanted to move on without him. They probably gave him some targets that were to high and then reduced/dropped his bonuses based on low achievements.

    He got the message, Meta got the carrot.

    He might even be a better fit for Meta.

  6. Let's not forget that since Snowden we know former German Chancellor Angela Merkel was spied on by the NSA.

    German govt has been a bit embarrassed by this.

  7. Completely agree. But that's more of a general matter than this specific matter.

    Judges is the best we have. US has juries, not sure if that makes it better.

    More importantly we need to criminalize lobbying in order to get control back over "our democracies" (what ever that still means today).

  8. Amen to that (will never happen though).
  9. Oracle is in the business of bullying others using their big legal dept.

    We all know this.

    > Oracle has no business claiming javascript as a trademark.

    You think so. That's okay. But ultimately it is up to a judge to decide. Right?

    I agree with the EcmaScript. Just ditch the stupid name. Get all the petition signers to agree an move on. Fuck Oracle. Fuck JavaScript (it's nothing like Java anyway).

  10. I use Supabase Storage. It does S3-style signed download links (so I can switch to any S3 service if I like later).
  11. I like Zig and I like their approach in this case.

    From the article:

        std.Io.Threaded - based on a thread pool.
    
          -fno-single-threaded - supports concurrency and cancellation.
          -fsingle-threaded - does not support concurrency or cancellation.
    
        std.Io.Evented - work-in-progress [...]
    
    Should `std.Io.Threaded` not be split into `std.Io.Threaded` and `std.Io.Sequential` instead? Single threaded is another word for "not threaded", or am I wrong here?
  12. Are the collaborations possible/foreseeable?
  13. etc. etc. responsibility.

    may also be lacking in therapist. is certainly lacking in LLM

  14. Semantics sure. But adult mode starts most likely at 13.

    Early 30s is mid-life mode.

    Why? Because time and time again research shows we should treat people 13 and up as adults. Even when they get some extra years of youth-judgement in court, and we put 18/21 in place as lawful adult...

  15. yes please
  16. When I look at it as a private person I think of income as the my personal revenue: from there I have lots of costs and tax to pay.

    What I end up with is disposable income which I can keep/invest.

  17. I stumbled over this sentence in the same way. And drew the same conclusion: the author uses "income" to mean "profit"
