Its not a computer, its a small device. You dont have many unknown peripheral you dont have other programs. The memory and peripherals are there, just use them. Heap is complicated ? Preallocate everything. A peripheral is not used ? Just leave it there. Security ? Of what ? Thats the appeal of those devices.

I find the opposite to be true. I'm much less in control when prompting than programming. So I can be much more in the flow during programming and 8h (well stopping to lunch) can be no issue. I feel bad prompting 2h straight.

I'm 100% behind it, but would regulation of financial markets and balanced tax policy do for global warming ? Sure heavy regulation of industries and fossil fuels usage but financial markets, im not sure.

Sure those heatwaves are murderous, but I think the earlier they come, the earlier real action is taken. The worst could be a very slow response.

What strikes me is the relative sharp change. CO2 has been rising since, what 250 years ? However real effects of global warming seems to be felt since, like 10 years old ?

You talk about Europe then only give Germany examples ..? Is that a German only problem ?

Exactly, you should optimize for quality and have a high bar forbit but I'm not sure sacrificing framerate for pixel perfect rendering or perfect subpixel antialiasing and compositing a perfect glass chroma aberration when wheezing a superfast animation is more important than it being solid 144Hz or audio synced.

"a bunch of nice graphics being manipulated with code" does sum up quite a bit of the videogame industry, including GTA VI ...

docker images and ubuntu releases use an adjective, this could at least allow some alternatives like bold/supreme/decisive/depressed eagle (or just use battery staple)

I havent seen many desktop like workflows on it with several "big" apps open (and running cpu) at the same time, most ive seen was one software at a time or games. Cooperating with yourself is relatively easier, no ?

Funny because I rewrote a bad port of dragons lair for a custom console with a tiny engine and huge dataset relatively, each frame having one "if press X goto frame Y" instruction.

The curious data point is that on this graph poverty seems to have strongly reduced during covid. Less poor.

How was this generated ? I'm quite sure "with ai/claude code" but what are the actual steps ?

Curious about the workload, but as Im trying to make a tool about json, what are those files compressed with? What is the size of the average file ? What is their structure (ndjson ? Dict with some huge data structure a few level deep?)

Frankly I don't know why we still have laptops. Honestly I think my mobile with a usbc base for screen and usb would perfectly work in a hardware pov. I don't know if Android would work, and besides of that a small fixed pc for whatever needs power.

Currently working exactly on that https://gitlab.com/makapuf/treewalker (even if it could always use some love)

Compilers won't do multiplication by power of two to bit shift for you ? I remember reading in ~2000: the only thing writing a<<2 instead of a/4 will do is make your compiler yawn

2. BigCo owns ProjectOne now 3a. Bigco is now free to release version N+1 as closed source only. 3b. Community can still fork the older version and work on it, but BigCo can continue to develop and sell their original version.
