The usual very short term corporate thinking that maximizes quarter profits while bankrupting the company in the long term. IMO a very shortsighted decision, if not downright stupid.

We Live In The Year 2779 From The Founding Of Rome
We live in the year AUC 2779, or AUC MMDCCLXXVIII in Roman numerals.
Ab Urbe Condita, often abbreviated as AUC, means "From The Founding Of The City". It refers to the year of the founding of Rome, which was the Epoch used in Ancient Rome.
I really loved when this was a feature of the Opera browser, before they went chromium.
So there is hope for the Tailwind developers?
This is already the case with most human activities, even reading a book for leisure is a luxury many can't afford.
Why? No one will be able to effectively ban AI. Pandora's box is open, and we can only witness the consequences.
I definitely blame JS whenever I have to interact with some websites or Electron applications :) Even coding agents. I made my own agent in d-lang just because I'm alergic to installing anything that requires node.js.
The funniest thing here is that all of you are complaining because you are expanding your working vocabulary xD xD xD
La previamente mencionada afrenta no es algo habitial en mi idioma, en contraposición a la posición de los angloparlantes, nosotros nos regocijamos con una tácita satisfacción al expresar la riqueza lingüística de nuestra lengua, incluso en nuestras interacciones más cotidianas.
Busca en Instagram a @pedrititox y a @yeisonsotog5 para que puedas apreciar a lo que me refiero.
Good. This is the resistance.
Better garbage collection than current runtimes? Now this is surely rose tinted glasses, probably based on nostalgia. It had horrific performance all around. Even the now obsolete Opera browser Kestrel runtime had better JS performance, and it is obsolete because Chrome crushed it in benchmarks consistently for several years. No, there's no way Flash had the performance characteristics you mention, even less in a critical component like the garbage collector.
"Accountability" is a value on paper, not in reality. The big companies that sell services are not really accountable, and in many cases will bankrupt their customers. See Revlon with SAP. See the Bavaria Colombian brewery, also with SAP. See the 4Hana case, again with SAP. SPAR group from South Africa. See Tesla surviving by cancelling their SAP deployment. It seems I have spotted a pattern here.
They make cab rides more enjoyable with their deep conversations.
In undergraduate math it doesn't matter if someone else did prove a result a hundred years before you. You still need to write your own proof and deeply understand it. Maybe in the most advanced PhD math it can have some impact, but these proofs are becoming intractable by humans alone.
It is a very obvious thing in UNIX world. This should not happen, no matter if it's Cursor or VIM or whatever program you are using. So, yes, it is a serious issue, and it's more of a Windows fuckup than Cursor itself. It's basic OS behaviour that's been fixed in UNIX for decades. You want to run a program in the current folder, you write ./program, everyone know this.
Isn't this the oldest kind of vulnerabilities corrected on UNIX several decades ago? The current directory is not in the PATH, period. This is also a bug on Windows only, so to me this is more a Windows issue than a Cursor issue, unless there's some logic in Windows that is doing the same as UNIX has done for decades. Given the "fix" involves ACL and a complex workaround that's not really a fix, I stay in my position this is more a Windows fuckup than something particular to Cursor.
I just don't use stranger's machines to access my personal stuff. Possibly compromised stranger's machines. I don't see the benefit about that, as I have more laptops than I need.
I love that in the Spanish cyberspace the tendency is to use more sophisticated and rich vocabulary, and it is common to point out obvious errors. If you understand Spanish, check out pedrititox B-)
Great work, it is very funny that I did just the opposite :)
Got fed up with Zed, Cursor, and the other GUI agentic tools and created a console TUI agent for my own use.
They are not randomly guessing, they are doing something more sofisticated: they are correlating gameplay with the evidence of board wear.
They are creating a probability distribution function where each point is a different gameplay ruleset and then we are free to pick the gameplay ruleset with the highest probability, with the caveat that there are other similar gameplays, with slightly different rules, and almost the same probability. And there are other gameplay rules with much lower probability because they don't match the wear of the board.
A random guess would have a flat distribution where any gameplay has the same probability.
There's one standard library now, it has great C/C++ interop, and the language features make more sense to me than C++, go, rust, Java, even Python.
If Rust is gaining popularity because it is an alternative to C++, D-lang needs to be included into that conversation, IMO.
Fall into it. I am rewriting all my projects in D-lang. It is really that good. Particularly when compared to Zig and Rust.
There's a huge difference between "asking and AI" meaning a prompt to a LLM, and very particular simulation fine tuned to this problem where the evaluation criteria is matching the exact wear found in the real boards. This work is much closer to a numerical simulation than anything you can call AI.
Now I want a playable version of this game in tabletop simulator :)
True, this is the best we can get and archaeology is full of speculation. It is still a very, very reasonable speculation, probably 95% accurate. You can thank the ones who burned the Biblioteca of Alexandria for most of the loss of actual information.
Where is D-lang in your car analogy? Would it be a Ferrari? :)
You write Better C and the first thing I think about is D-lang.
It's not just eval. It's LISP macros what makes it an interesting powerful language for agents.
Now this is AI going full circle, back to their roots. Yeah, I want to see that system working.
Dude. It's a cultural thing. Of course it is not reliable. Are you on the spectrum?
So, what?
I don't see the C++ compiler standards or Newton's laws changing every day.
I made my own. It's true I don't want to switch to another harness now.
But switching models is just a command.
