DarkenLM

wouldn’t be that difficult.

The amount of times I said that only to be quickly proven wrong by the fundamental forces of existence is the reason that’s going to be written on my tombstone.

However, do keep in mind that LLMs regularly pull language an library features out of their asses that have no direct correspondent in practice. I’d use the LLMs to generate small snippets of code, giving them a small and restricted set of requirements to minimize hallucinations.

Look at this fancy guy using an abacus. Everyone knows the superior way is to harness your own mind as your computer.

It’s way worse on C and it’s family. I still have nightmares with undocumented embedded dependencies that are so intertwined with the codebase that make JS look like a godsend.

Servo is being actively worked on. Maybe it can become a worthy adversary to chrome?

Well, considering most android apps are written in Java (mostly Kotlin, but it uses the JVM still), I guess it could.

However, Bedrock is vastly inferior in terms of quality, and performance is not an excuse for it.

I never understood the “Minecraft Bedrock was made so it could run everywhere” argument. Like, wasn’t Java’s moto “Write once, run everywhere”? Why settle for a garbage version of the original, when the original can run on every computational device made within the last decade?

The only complaint I have, and it’s not really a problem with the OS itself, is that the Realtek driver is unstable at best, and will crash every five minutes.

I’d rather wait until 2025 than having a Cyberpunk 2.0. I waited 10 years, I think I can handle 1 or 2 more.

And OP talks about Alchemy, which commonly uses the energy that different materials have inherently to create magical artifacts.

It’s literally using what God already created.

If it involves pointers, not unlikely.

node_modules is so heavy it is the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy.

Honestly, given the context of a browser, Javascript’s “Everything is better than crashing” philosophy does not seem too out-of-place. Yes, the website might break, but at least it would be theoretically usable still.

Yes, a statically typed language would help, but I’d rather not have one that is “these two types are slightly different, fuck you, have a segfault”, but rather one that is slightly more flexible.

With C, you need to carefully craft your own gun with just iron ingots and a hammer. You will shoot yourself in the foot, but at least you’ll have the knowledge that it was your craftsmanship that led to it.

With C++, there are already prebuilt guns and tons of modifications that you can combine at will. If you shove it in the right way, you can make a flintlock shoot a 50 cal, but don’t complain when your whole leg gets obliterated.

And yet somehow it evolved to become something that will last to the heat death of the universe.

I’ve grown used to it with time, though. Once you know it’s “quirks”, it’s not so bad.

Windows startup repair did unbrick my system a couple of times, and the network troubleshooter fixes the issues most of the time, so yes they have.

And equally, Google is yet to use the big guns they have. Don’t get me wrong, I hate Google with a passion, but they have way too much power over the internet for us to leave even a dent on their plans.

Experience tells me otherwise, but given that the people I’ve met that use linux distros is nowhere near enough of a good sample size, I hope I’m wrong.

Ah, yes. The leftpad incident.

Guess this XKCD still holds strong, just like that package.

A surprisingly increasing number of companies seem to be making suicide sprints lately.
