Emacs Microfeature 2 years ago

Is emacs an evolutionary deadend? im looking at LLM-plugins and emac's support for chatgpt is no where near cursor or zed. I kind of want to contribute my own

Try Clojure 2 years ago

i wish it was easy to make android apps with clojure. not sure if itd be easier with jetpack compose + clojure or react native + clojurescript.

dual boot. give her a choice. don't force things onto her, even if you think its better. if windows gets slow, she can try linux and see how its faster.

i tried giving my sister linux and she's a technically savvy product manager but she still ended up not liking it. you're wife might be really smart, but if the computer doesn't work correctly she will resent you lol.

and by "correctly" i mean in any way that she doesn't expect or that is contrary to her intuition, which may have been built using windows.

most people generally don't like using computers that much. even i don't as a software engineer.

generally most people use computers as an interface to the web, so the OS is mostly irrelevant. But if the OS gets in her way like once or twice and forces her to install some package or whatever, that's just a little unnecessary friction that makes an already unpleasant experience worse.

can't go wrong with dual booting anyway. if there's any wifi/hardware issues it might be due to linux or she might just blame linux and think its worse even if its better in your eyes and mine.

i mean unless you want to spend extra time doing tech support, which isn't really productive for you, or for her to wait on you when she needs something done.

copilot is just a prototype. imagine in 10-20 years, software engineers as we know it will be obsolete.

mdma is generally even more powerful for healing trauma.

Or rather MDMA can accelerate healing by released "stored unprocessed memories"

LSD can help you by showing you a possibility of whats possible by dissolving the prision of identity and seeing the world from a non-local perspective.

yeah i wish i had one of these over the 13 pro. i basically never use the camera.

if BAYC is a killer app then web3 is doomed.

Using NFTs to enforce digital scarcity and 'ownership' of content can be cool.

but the idea of a exclusive social club where you can only get into by buying a million dollar avatar is a little ridiculous. IF they actually had good content in the group that would make sense but it seems to be mostly an MMO

the pictures dont even have any taste and the whole thing feels overly commercial and reeks of group-think.

90% of the time guy seems to be trolling for fun.

the "current thing" refers to everyone bandwagoning on supporting ukraine when they didnt do anything to help them for like 10 years and there were tons of people warning "putin is going to invade someday."
