Sure, but my point is that you’ll end up with one “main” remote where you have all git forge stuff even if you push to multiple remotes. By all means, don’t make github the main one!

For git itself sure, but all the other things that come with a git forge, like issue management, are probably things that you don’t want spread out over multiple websites

Is the decompiled code guaranteed to be equivalent to the compiled code? While this might be cool it doesn’t seem that useful if you can’t reason about the correctness of the output. I skimmed the README and didn’t manage to figure it out

Comments can become outdated, but so can variable and function names. “Self-documenting” code often relies on appropriate naming, yet this is also subject to rot as the code develops.

While jellyfin itself is very simple, you might run in to problems if you want to use it while not on your home network. For this you’re either wanna use a VPN (or tailscale) or use something like nginx to give your server a web address, while you get this for free if you use plex.

Giving yourself a public address might be easier for the person trying to access jellyfin, but it it comes with a bunch of security considerations and you probably (definetly) want to do some research on the inns and outs of that. I would recommend tailscale but either way it’s gonna be some extra fiddling, unless you already have something like that set up.

I think that linux has a couple of things that might help it grow outside its traditional niche that it hasn’t in the past. Proton has been a major step forward in to the gaming scene. A lot of people are very unhappy about windows 11. The EU in particular is also investing in ways to get out from under American techs thumb due to the geopolitical landscape.

I don’t have too high expectations personally but who knows.

Another option if you don’t have a family is to use DLNA for streaming to the TV, most TV’s have native support for that and you can just set up your computer to work as a DLNA server.

I do use a media server but I could probably get away with just syncthing to sync my computer and phone, it would probably be easier even. Of course, if you have more than 2tband you want it all at your fingertips then a media server is probably the right call.

I think that AI is the most useful when you’re doing something that you’re bad at so that makes perfect sense. The drawback is that you probably won’t improve as much at writing as if you where struggling with it by hand. Maybe you’re fine with that though, it’s hard to dedicate the time to get good at everything.

One thought I’ve had about AI and programing is that you’ll run in to a similar problem. Code is a bit special because it’s a language that’s understandable by both humans and computers, and when you’re programing you’re essentially writing for both audiences at once.

Voice is maybe not as important when writing code (although you still want to keep the coding style consistent) but even so I think that writing code by hand has the advantage of you being able to express your thoughts in a more coherent way than the output of a handful prompts will. The problem isn’t just with however powerful the AI model is, but that prompting is a kind of vague and indirect way of interacting with the system and it necessarily introduces another layer between the author and whoever ends up reading it.

Ok I understand that you don’t like bluesky for whatever reason, but could you actually formulate why so that it’s possible to have a discussion instead?

https://tangled.sh/ is looking like an interesting alternative imo.

It uses ATProto (the bluesky protocol) and allows you to self host the git part and/or your personal data (e.g. comments that you leave on other repos). It’s still very much in development as is the ATProto itself, so it doesn’t seem mature enough for serious use yet. ATProto does for example not handle private accounts/posts yet which means that all your tangled repos have to be public.

If you find yourself writing regexes often enough that speeding up that process would increase your productivity by “a lot”, then you should get good at writing them yourself which means practicing without an LLM. If its something that you don’t do often enough to warrant getting good at then the productivity increase is negligible.

I think the main benefit here isn’t really productivity but developer comfort by saving them from having to step out of their comfort zone.

I try to write comments whenever what the code isn’t obvious on its own. A “never write comments” proponent might argue that you should never write code that isn’t obvious on its own, but that doesn’t always work in practice

• Sometimes you have to write cryptic code for performance reasons
• Sometimes you have to deal with unintuitive edge cases
• Sometimes you have to work around bugs in 3rd party code
• Sometimes you are dealing with a problem that is inherently complex or unintuitive, no matter how you put it in to code

They are open to drop some features apparently, but maybe not “90%”

The developers are taking a “less is more” approach. This means that some features of the original sudo may not be reimplemented if they serve only niche, or more recently considered “outdated” practices.

tldr is great, sometimes you can’t remember the exact syntax for a certain command and just need a quick reminder as well.

Can I mod games as freely and as easily as I do on Windows?

It depends a lot on the game, but in my experience not always. Running games straight from steam works really well with a small number of exceptions, but a lot of the sometimes weird tools for patching exe:s and so on that some games use can sometimes be a pain to get running. Not necessarily impossible but yeah this is a reason for why I still keep around my windows installation for dual booting.

It’s another c/c++ competitor along with rust and zig. https://odin-lang.org/

Don’t think it has anything to do with electron. VSCode is just the largest editor that people install extensions for, so it’s what makes the most sense to write malware for. If vim was more popular, I’m sure there would be more crypto mining extensions for that (I wonder how many there are? Surely more than zero?)
