- I also cancelled my All Products subscription a while ago. I have been an IntelliJ user since the early 2000s and gave up after in 2025, it would still forget how a Maven project with some generated files should be built, with everything turning to a sea of red until you reimported the project and redid all your settings again. Job #1.
There was always a regression like this in every new build, along with the performance issues. Also switched to Zed + Claude Code/Codex.
I will miss the debugger (a little bit).
- Arguably Google and others like them would not even exist without access to cheap off the shelf hardware in their early days.
- I am fairly skeptical about many AI companies, but as someone else pointed out, Anthropic has 10x'ed their revenue for the past 3 years. 100m->1b->10b. While past performance no predictor of future results, their product is solid and to me looks like they have found PMF.
- Kitty Graphics Protocol support and subtle font rendering differences between Ghostty and Alacritty that drive me nuts.
I have reported font rendering issues to Alacritty in the past and let's just say the developer was not exactly receptive to fixing them since they occur on macOS and not his preferred OS of Linux.
- It's not a pejorative statement, I used to live in Stack Overflow.
But the killer feature of an LLM is that it can synthesize something based on my exact ask, and does a great job of creating a PoC to prove something, and it's cheap from time investment point of view.
And it doesn't downvote something as off-topic, or try to use my question as a teaching exercise and tell me I'm doing it wrong, even if I am ;)
- Oh damn, this is awesome.
I wonder if https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/discussions/18129 is still accurate. Would love to be able to use Ghostty as my Zed terminal.
- I haven’t visited StackOverflow for years.
- The objective data they provided is opinion now?
- I’ve gone off coffee for months at a time as a test, but to be honest it’s about the same for me on vs off after the adjustment period.
When I go off, after the headaches, I get good sleep without trying, but so do I on coffee if I have my last one no later than 1pm (where good == 7 hours).
And a proper flat white is so, so good. Therefore I accept my addiction and have two a day!
- Wow, no kidding. I checked my BOM for the 9950 build I did a year ago, RAM price has doubled for the exact same DDR5-6000 sticks.
- As someone who started doing SwiftUI recently, it absolutely boggles my mind that (1) this is even a thing and (2) Apple seem ok to treat it as an unsolvable problem. When you finally solve it is some stupid wrong type passed in somewhere. I agree with the other poster. This is so pathetic it makes me question the competence of the engineers working on Swift.
Smells like “we made a poor architectural / design choice and ain’t walking it back”.
- There are dozens of us… dozens ;)
I use Ghostty, but the same thing. I have a flake based setup, which means I have the same environment and programs across all my Macs, Linux machines and WSL terminals.
Takes me about 30 minutes to spin up a new Mac laptop, with 99% of all setup done, down to system preferences.
Linux (nixOS) a little longer because for a brand new machine I may need to do a little hardware specific bootstrapping, but if I’m paving the same machine about the same.
- > The lack of control over where the workload runs is a problem caused by Kubernetes.
Fine grained control over workload scheduling is one of the K8s core features?
Affinity, anti-affinity, priority classes, node selectors, scheduling gates - all of which affect scheduling for different use cases, and all under the operator's control.
- How so? aria-label= and role= attributes exist, this is not 1999.
- Tactics straight out of the Simple Sabotage field manual. You’d think the audience of this website understood modern fast feedback loop iterative development to explore the problem space.
- Somehow all the implementations are equally lacklustre though? What is the common denominator.
- I switched to it for projects in my consulting side gigs, and it’s quite low friction, but I don’t see it gaining the same traction in enterprise as JIRA until they add the ability for big companies to completely fuck up and over-complicate issue workflows and add 100+ custom fields and turn Linear into the system that gates velocity.
- Probably Intel’s fumble when Apple asked them for better performance per watt for the laptop CPUs and whether they wanted the iPhone CPU business back in 2006.
- I used to be an Audi and BMW driver, but this stingy nickel and diming mindset, common to German manufacturers, and the silly maintenance tax (I always drove RS or M models), made me swear off German cars forever. They deserve the reckoning coming for them with this cynical bullshit. Pity, as they really do make cars that are enjoyable to drive.
I’ve found it to be worst when using Xcode / simulator and having headphones on for music.
sudo killall coreaudiod seems to fix it for a while.
