Very much so. I bet most of those people have never run an open source project or business, but they all have an opinion.

Pretty sad to hear this though since I really like Tailwind. I wonder how many other projects this vibe coding bullshit will harm. So sad to see more wealth being concentrated instead of being distributed.

Bumi looks to be concocting some mischief. Possibly a slide to get down from there! 😁

.clone() everything!

I do kind of agree in a way though. Rust forces you to think a bit about memory and the language does tend to guide towards good design. But it’s not magic and it’s easy to write inefficient Rust too. Especially if you just clone everything. But I personally find Rust to be a good mix of low level control that feels sufficiently high level.

Garbage collected languages can be memory efficient too though. Having easily shared references is great!

Loooolll! I love them raising a stink about forking I’m another language. Go for it! Nobody cares and I’m sure it’ll reach feature parity by the time paru is updated. 🙄 And then mentioning Lunduke saying something negative about Rust. Isn’t he some wacko conspiracy/Linux YouTuber? That all made for a good laugh.

Anyway, I really like Paru, but I’ve switched back to yay until they get a fix. Really not a big deal.

Megaman or X?

“Agentic Engineering”. No, it’s called vibe coding. AI bros are so desperate for legitimacy they make up fancy sounding titles for themselves.

But this isn’t engineering. Engineering takes rigor and discipline and process and understanding… A lot of it is extremely boring too. The code itself is probably the easiest (and I’d argue least important) part of software engineering. These guys are burning down forests to poorly automate the easy part.

I’m not saying that coding is easy in an absolute sense, but only relative to the rest of the discipline. A good engineer knows how to design/architect a system, understand tradeoffs, balance customer/user requirements with business needs, set up proper testing and releases, properly document everything, etc.

Ah yes, a fine example of small government free market.

Don’t worry, they’re probably going to he big and stupid looking in reality. Plus, the obnoxious AI bro wearing them will be easy to identify.

Magit is fantastic!!

Very cool! Looks like the paper is here: https://arxiv.org/abs/2504.17033

Wow! I still have my Dragon Dice in a box somewhere. A few of my friends had it and we played about 4 games before we got bored. Still something nostalgic about it for me though.

I also agree about Tsuro. Great fun!

Its because of all the people saying that LLMs can reason and think and the human brain works just like an LLM and… some other ridiculous claim.

This shows some limitations on LLMs.

Check out ForgeFed which is built on ActivityPub.

Forgejo is implementing support but I don’t know how far along it is.

Same! This is really unfortunate.

Emacs!

With LSPs it works for just about anything and Magit is simply too good.

And he’ll just come back as a BT to ominously hover over the team.

I like this. The list is probably incomplete but it looks like a good place to start if you’re looking for a particular library.

He behaves like a Nazi so he’s a Nazi. And clearly calling him that is getting under his skin, so it’s working. I don’t think using a different word will have the same effect. Heck, he might even latch onto neo-feudalist thinking it’s cool or something.

Sadly I doubt many are seeing this considering how many of my neighbours still voted for PP. I’m happy to see a Liberal minority, but disgusted by how much support the cons still have.
