With a five minute screen display time out on a seemingly not dynamic page, ten minutes past, no time out, unless the page has background activity, so it's proven so 🤫

The best AI generated videos at most are like video games in 4k, so what the fuss

@neerajjj6785 Docker is more than enough

a tech opinion you can defend like this?

@vivoplt All you gotta do is learn C++ since it's predominant in new language design and everything will fall in place

Programming Languages & the Languages Used to Create Them • C → Written in Assembly • C++ → Written in C • Java → Written in C++ • Python → Written in C • JavaScript (V8 engine) → Written in C++ • Go → Written in C (initially), now mostly Go • Rust → Written in Rust (initially bootstrapped from OCaml) • TypeScript → Written in TypeScript • Kotlin → Written in Kotlin • Swift → Written in C++ • PHP → Written in C • Ruby (MRI) → Written in C • C# → Written in C++ • Dart → Written in C++

@josevalim Could it be why low level systems programmers are less of vibe coders than say web and mobile devs?

You probably heard me saying "coding agents are useless for type system work 🥴" but Sol is definitely an improvement. Before they were a distraction: consistently wrong and not even worth steering. Now they are useful assistants, helping me narrow down and explore possibilities. They still can't one shot solutions though.

@katibmoe Is that a think pad Lenovo?

@mhenrixon Remarkable

@XessiveObserver Exactly that! I start with integrations tests in the Ruby client, save the vcr cassettes, release a new version of the Ruby client, exposes the vcr cassettes and then the other clients download the vcr cassettes and build out their own endpoint wrappers.

This evening, I have programmed in Rust, Go, Elixir, Crystal, Php, Python, Ruby and JS. How's your day going?

@yarotheslav You couldn't be more right on that

Rails people take so much for granted. Imagine paying for gem "devise" based on your monthly active users count

@mario_chavez imagine a world in which each gem is a SaaS or usage-billed. that's what JS framework folks life is like every day

@glcst They say know the rules, brake the rules and make the rules if you want to innovate and that's what you did everytime while they played suckers for progress, well done 👍

Almost every single time I released something in my career, I see people saying: you are clueless. You don't understand the space. You don't know what I am doing. In the early days of the Turso Cloud, there was this guy here that would every now and they remark that "Turso keeps building the wrong thing", always followed by an explanation of what SQLite *IS*, what is good at, what is not good at, how people use it, etc. Turso now has almost one signup every 5 minutes, and 700,000 databases were created in our cloud this week. On the rewrite of SQLite itself, the common accusation was that we didn't understand that people use SQLite because of its reliability, and any rewrite would fail because it had no access to their test suite. We took Turso out of beta last week and power many production users already. Before that, it was Scylla, a rewrite of Cassandra. We were roasted by many, who said that we were morons who didn't understand that Cassandra was I/O bound, so any improvements in the CPU architecture were pointless. Scylla was 10x faster than Cassandra in real life. My first experience of that was when at Red Hat we patched QEMU to be the virtualization layer for the device abstraction for the KVM Hypervisor. I was 19 at the time, and being part of the team I submitted a talk to a local conference, who rejected me saying that QEMU was an emulator, and I didn't even seen to understand the different between virtualization and emulation if I was conflating the two. The common thread in all of those is always the same: people getting dead set in their ways, always looking at the world as it is, completely unable to understand that if you just tweak things, most things can be very adaptable. Things can reach new heights. They can be used in different ways.

@jorgemanru Definitely we are still figuring out what hopefully shall be the future

No clue what the future of software development will be, but staring at terminals while consuming a stream of largely irrelevant information (like assorted diffs, used tokens, tools count...) won't be it.

@mfranz_on Might be the only way to push the open source envelope, thus far

What is the future of open source software? I feel like nowadays if you need a software, which is open, you don't contribute to it but you just do it from scratch with AI and let it add the feature you needed.

Difference between std::lower_bound and std::upper_bound in C++

@owenthcarey The night of I must get this done

Nothing worse than not being able to sleep on a night you really need to sleep.

@johnrushx Good for the soul

@XessiveObserver Haha, tbh, yes I wanted to go read what people say about Leo and then felt like it was the right time to return back Being offline is great, I’ll keep doing that every few months i think. One month online, two months offline

I'm alive locked in cooking something truly incredible you'll see it soon Haven't seen you all for 4 months; how is life? How is business?

@JamesWard That's good enough

@XessiveObserver Only on projects that matter.

I spend a lot more time in the IntelliJ diff view than I do in my AI agent. For projects that matter, that is how it should be.

@excid3 @hatchboxio Congrats, so encouraging

We're handling over 100,000 deployments a month now on @Hatchboxio. Hatchbox started as a side project and has now become our core business. It's incredibly hard to bootstrap a product like this when all the competitors are VC-backed, but that didn't stop us from bringing affordable app deployments to the community. ❤️

@mfranz_on Skill issue, it is, IMHO, is it though?

Every time I see C++ code I don't understand why it needs that level of complexity. That syntax makes it almost unreadable
