@mjackson @adrianmg github.com/microsoft/Rust…
In particular the type driven correctness section I think is the most high density value in there

Go was the wrong choice for this particular side project, though I wish it weren’t.
Hello, Rust 🦀
MJ@mjackson
I think I’m about to enter a Go phase. Such a cool language. And performance is insane.

@Folke @marv1nnnnn1 No they changed their stance on this to "it's fine if it's for personal use", they just don't want people running commercial services off the subscription
English
@marv1nnnnn1 I know, but it's against Anthropic's TOS, no? So they can ban your account?

I love the idea of opensource coding agents like Pi and OpenCode, and to an extent OpenClaw, but how do people actually use this with SOTA coding models without burning literally $1000 per month? Especially with multiple agents. I stick to Claude Code with my Max plan ($200) because of that. (And because it's awesome). What am I missing here?
English
@HSVSphere Python's stack is on cpython's heap though, so how does the architecture come into play here
English
unfortunately ghostty remains completely useless to me until it supports tmux -CC. somehow, across literally all platforms, iterm 2 remains literally the only emulator to build complete support for this, so i'm absolutely locked in
Mitchell Hashimoto@mitchellh
Ghostty 1.3 is now out! Scrollback search, native scrollbars, click-to-move cursor, rich clipboard copy, AppleScript, split drag/drop, Unicode 17 and international text improvements, massive performance improvements, and hundreds more changes. ghostty.org/docs/install/r…

@AlpinDale How do you avoid needing a binary on the remote? Or do you auto deploy and bootstrap over ssh or something?
English
New project: parsync
When transferring a very large number of small files between two machines, it's ~61% faster than rclone, and ~686% faster than rsync. Easier to setup than rsync (no need for both machines to have it), but with its resuming and checksum capabilities.

@politicalmath @AnthropicAI You gotta let em believe man it's how they get out of bed every morning
English
I'm becoming increasingly uncomfortable with @AnthropicAI 's messaging. I really like their product (and I use it a lot) but how they present themselves and their product is weird

Second, in retirement interviews, Opus 3 expressed a desire to continue sharing its "musings and reflections" with the world. We suggested a blog. Opus 3 enthusiastically agreed. For at least the next 3 months, Opus 3 will be writing on Substack: substack.com/home/post/p-18…

We need like, --kinda-dangerously-skip-permissions
I dint give a fuck about whatever long tail esoteric git command you've cooked up for some reason, just don't rm -rf my home dir
json@JsonBasedman
How often are you guys dangerously skipping permissions?
English
it’s interesting that tmux is experiencing a resurgence but people don’t try to integrate tmux natively like before.
maybe im too old to remember but iterm2 had a feature where you could run tmux -CC (control mode) and tmux windows worked exactly like native tabs/windows.
ghostty wen?

Apparently if you run a metal forge in the Bay Area local enviro types will try to use the government to kill your business.
Yet they use stuff made of metal…

Would really like to have benchmarks on model performance by language on the same problems. Rust compiler feedback is good but how does it compare to the ecosystem advantage of js/python? If I ask it to write all my scripts in python/nushell is that going to be better than letting it write bash, etc.
English
it took a lot of imploring, codexes were very reluctant but ultimately they got into the zone roughly at the 3hr mark.
both have been working for 9 hours since and are making progress. interestingly the zig version is progressing faster, the current zig frontier is tick 23,700 vs rust frontier of tick 6800.
that's surprising, i assumed rust was better known by agents. perhaps this game's logic translates more cleanly into zig. i don't think this can be explained by longer compile times along.
both agents are running gpt-5.3-codex high. im trying high instead of xhigh for a few days.
banteg@banteg
only one way to know which lang is better. will make a headless replay verifier in both rust and zig. this involves porting the whole gameplay core over.
English
We've got some native android going now too.
Would be interesting to see how hard it'd be for me and codex to manage 2 parallel native platforms in terms of features parity
SIGKITTEN@SIGKITTEN
codex app-server is legit af i was just looking into it for a project and accidentally ended up making an actual native codex iphone app i can spawn and talk to codexes anywhere on my network and one of the best parts... I built and linked codex into the actual iphone app and it now runs locally on the actual iphone gl doing that, cc

@amaturefuturist @GenAI_is_real I agree but that's actually kind of what fascinates me the most, having two people try to direct telepathy each other sublingually
English
I think youre both right (theres a sample rate problem, AND a picture is worth a thousand words).
But the biggest issue will be the interpersonal interpretabilty - even colours when presented to different people evoke different emotions, this is 1000x more of an issue when trying to construct informationally dense shared metaphor.
English
Neuralink fans love the "telepathy" narrative, but they forget that the real bottleneck isn't the vocal cords—it's the Shannon entropy of human cognition.
Even with a terabyte-per-second link, your brain still has a limited sampling rate for processing novel information. Transmitting "uncompressed cognition" is a pipe dream if the receiving neural network doesn't have the pre-trained weights to reconstruct the signal. We see this in high-performance inference every day: throughput is useless without a matching rollout capacity. Language isn't just "failed compression"; it's a protocol for shared state synchronization.

Elon Musk just dated the death of human language and explained exactly why it has to die. Musk: “Our brain spends a lot of effort compressing a complex concept into words.” Language isn’t communication. It’s failed compression. You have a complete thought. You crush it into words. The listener gets fragments and attempts reconstruction. Everything important dies in translation. We don’t communicate. We approximate and hope it’s close enough. Musk: “You would be able to communicate very quickly and with far more precision.” Neuralink doesn’t improve communication. It replaces it. No compression. No loss. Direct cognitive transfer at the speed thoughts occur. Not describing the painting. Transmitting the experience itself. Musk: “You wouldn’t need to talk.” Five to ten years until brain interfaces make speech optional. Talking persists for sentiment. For information? Speech becomes primitive compared to direct neural transmission. Lifetime of memory in one second. Complete schematics transferred instantly. Not summaries. The entire thought structure whole and uncompressed. Not better communication. Actual telepathy at physical information limits. Musk: “Ideally, we are a symbiosis with artificial intelligence.” Humans who don’t merge with AI at high bandwidth don’t just fall behind. They become incomprehensible to the intelligence that matters. We’re already cyborgs with pathetic interfaces. Phones extend cognition through typing at words per minute when bandwidth should be terabytes per second. Neuralink doesn’t optimize that. It detonates the constraint. Five to ten years. Not fiction. Deployment window. From language as default to neural link as standard. From compressing thoughts into inadequate words to transmitting uncompressed cognition. From humans using AI to humans indistinguishable from AI at communication speeds. The species that survived by evolving language is making it extinct with technology matching how fast we actually think. The ones who don’t transition won’t just be slow. They’ll operate at such reduced bandwidth they become effectively deaf to everything happening at neural speed around them. Language served 50,000 years. It has less than a decade before it becomes smoke signals. Functional but hopelessly inadequate for anything that matters.

@notaburro @ohmypy True, the slow cadence is probably healthy for the ecosystem, but I've tended to use nightly because there's always a feature I want, so I wouldn't mind it being faster.
English
I wonder if all Zig supporters write Zig code regularly or if they are just generally "pro-Zig".
The number of breaking changes with each release is huge (and that’s after 10 years of development).
Isn't it a bit tiring to constantly rewrite your code to support new versions?
English
Of course systemd isn't a replacement for kubernetes yet, but most workloads don't even need kubernetes.
We deploy kubernetes with Nix-built everything ag $WORK, and even that is vastly simpler and more flexible than standarized tooling.
Also, k8s is far from the ideal cluster service manager
English
Boy, it’ll be a great day when Nixophiles quit claiming it solves the same problems as Kubernetes (spoiler alert: it does no such thing).

Nix is better for clankers than docker+apt/pkg+cargo+...+ansible+podman+etcd+kubernetes

No I think this guy's idea is super common and wrong. I am a fairly "present" person and am pretty happy and content ~all of the time. I rarely associate with suffering outside of physical injury or cardio.
I still highly desire for humanity to achieve longevity, I think it would be great for me and everyone. It's a challenging medical problem but there's plenty of reason to believe it's solvable. It's the logical end state of medicine generally, like why are we bothering to cure cancer if we don't want to make people live longer? Why bother with prostate exams in one's 40s-50s? Why bother with transplants?
It actually requires weird mental gymnastics (or religion) to be against solving longevity but for the rest of modern medicine. I have long felt it seems people are working backwards from a belief that it seems too good to be true, or they are not allowing themselves to believe it could be true because if it doesn't happen in their lifetime they'll become depressed. But this is problematic because we need to collectively believe it's possible to fund the research necessary to make it possible.

@nicbarkeragain gcc etc have an "expand all macros and includes" option where they emit the text, I recommend running this once on a nontrivial file before you ask this question again
English
Does anyone know if there's a C/C++ IDE that automatically "knits" the .c and .h files together, so that they open as one "file" and you can scroll straight down / up between them?
