When Should You Abandon Your Objectives?

What I missed in the docs: Is there some out of the box deploy target? Ink has a web export for example, so if that's all you need you don't need to deal with any middleware aspects and simply write your game, export for web and get the interface for free, basically.

Ha.. thats a very cool way of adjusting. themes. I hoped for being able to adjust a lot of things around markdown edit and markdown preview though. My biggest problem with Zed right now. Themes are actually ok to me. Maybe thats on their todo though who knows.

.de Domain Down 3 months ago

This is not only affecting uberspace, but every website with .de infra. I just don't know if there are websites that check if whole TLD's are down to provide such an URL instead.

Sponsorship decisions are not community polls, never have been.

And the worries about "blender just being sold to xyz..." have been around forever. Always wrong. People with AMD cards were screaming when Nvidia became sponsor, and other way round.

It is more about the signal sent, in this case.

For everyone who is interested, here is the mastodon thread: https://mastodon.social/@Blender/116482997785333001 (it is just like to be expected though)

Came here for this. In one of Nathan's blog posts he describes the notification as noticably driving the donations. Personally I haven't seen it ever myself, and what I also haven't seen is any complaints about it.

Would have been a better comparison than Wikimedia I guess, but aside that, the LibreOffice team still has a valid point that the reactions are unjustified.

In a week nobody will talk about it anymore though, so LO team, just sit it through :)

Oh yes. Ok, that's probably on bash, but you look at the script and it's like 200 lines of code. Then you read the alternate install instructions and it goes like "download binary, make executable, add to $PATH, run" - ???

Text is misleading too. 5-7 tok/sec is not reading speed, it's a tad slower. For me, at least, and I am an experienced reader, not especially schooled in quick-reading though.

I happened to "live" on 7.0-7.5 tok/sec output speed for a while, and it is an annoying experience. It is the equivalent of walking behind someone slightly slower on a footwalk. I dealt with this by deliberately looking away for a minute until output was "buffered" and only then started reading.

For any local setup I'd try to reach for 10 tok/sec. Sacrifice some kv cache and shove a few more layers on your GPU, it's worth it.

An example for this is the Blender addon ecosystem. Blender moves very fast, breaking API changes every few versions. Now I am not an addon developer myself, but from github issues I follow, changes are fairly often trivial to do.

Yet, someone has to do them. Ideally it is the creator of the addon, sometimes it's the users who do it, when the addon is not maintained anymore (in case of trivial changes).

It kinda works that way, but it also is some kind of gamble for the user. When you see a new addon (and a new addon developer), you can't know if they gonna stick to it or not.

If you have to pay for the addon, it's more likely they maintain it, of course. But also not a guarantee.

What is to note here, this is without export templates, these are ~800MB extra (200 per platform, but it seems like you can download only all at once nowadays).

Engines like Unity and UE include those in the primary download already.
