Unrelated but every time I clean my spotify cache I get better recommendations, I figure they're saving a fair bit of money not having to stream new songs
I had the opposite experience, had an LG Gram from work and it felt cheap in comparison to my m1 macbook pro. A while back I installed asahi on the macbook, best linux experience I've had so far. The trackpad and screen are still unrivaled, keyboard feels much better than the gram, and battery life is significantly better
Its worth pointing out because rust has a monopoly on easy-to-write gc-less memory safety, with the alternatives being modern c++ or higher level languages where you run into a garbage collector
a combination of "there is no standard", "selling collaboration to businesses is way to make money", and that how editors handle files changes from editor to editor, so its a bit hard to sync
- zed.dev has crdt's/collaborative editing as one of its selling points, but they're planning to offer this collaboration as part a paid service to businesses.
- vscode has its own sycronous collaboration plugin, but its proprietary and they declined to release the source code or offer to port it to other editors
- you could probably build a plugin that bridges emacs and neovim, but it might be a bit slow as you'd have to "translate" the buffer from one editor to the other
There is an inherent difficulty in implementing it, getting asycronous collaborative editing right is hard. Combine that with how few people on emacs/neovim actually use collaborative editing (emacs still has a mailing list and does code via patches) and the chance for a "universal" version is practically nil.
Emacs with crdt.el, or neovim with instant.nvim are both open source and free implementations of collaborative editing with crdt's. Its going to be a bit of a struggle getting your coworkers to use emacs/neovim though
Rendering a platform native GUI and what you render it on are two different things. In the case of Zed, its a combination of
- metal is quite easy to work with
- apple has clear design guidelines and nice toolkits
The Xi editor team quickly found out how much of a mess "native" gui's were on windows. Zed will hopefully add support for vulkan and linux/windows later, but it makes sense to start off on macOS
If you treat it as a surpercharged search engine on a compressed snapshot of the internet in 2021, then its quite useful. If theres ever a function I forgot, but I know how to explain what it does in natural language, chatGPT most of the time can find me what I'm looking for. On some more obscure bugs or if I'm sorting through a new codebase, chatGPT can help me out from time to time to understand new topics.
Of course, we shouldn't rely on chatGPT. It has give me wrong and insecure code before. However, its a nice tool to have around
afaik stadia used custom built hardware from amd's instinct line. Almost all of their cloud offerings are nvidia based or utilize their own TPU's.
I can't say for certain that derefr's explanation is wrong, but from what it looks like they did create bespoke hardware for stadia instead of reusing their existing infrastructure.
They recently refunded every purchase made on stadia when they announced it was going to close down, and they created 2 first party studios for it (along with deals with rockstar games etc.)
Did stadia itself make any money? Probably not. I'm sure the money they made from re-using those servers for their cloud/ai departments certainly paid of the dept though.
What I find more concerning is the 100% scores that ChatGPT has been able to achieve on AP CSA and APUSH, among others.
It makes sense to teach 3rd graders 2+2, but if college board is creating "college level courses" with problems that can be easily solved through whats still a fairly new technology, we need to reevaluate what we're teaching in schools.
So many AP courses are just memorization and identifying formulas. I'd bet the majority of AP CSA students wouldn't fare very well when tasked with detailing how they'd approach a project, whereas kids in IB schools etc. would find it straightforward.
Not sure if I'm missing anything in your comment, but the study purposely excludes dollar slices. You can find a lot of 1$ slices in nyc, and they usually taste pretty good!
