Developing a muscle memory is the main aspect of keyboard usage. Does this app account for this? i.e. how repeatable are those key-shortcuts? Seems like it's random.

Why not use JUCE for UI? :)

The thing is, in a perspective, who would need any apps at all? Users will get what they want from AI directly.

While this is true that the stack and domain does not matter for any capable software engineer, most jobs are for hiring particular narrow specialists, requiring the years of experience in a particular framework, and even experience working on an exact same product but in a different company.

Why do we keep tolerating that regime which makes 26 mln people suffer? Why can't we do Operation a la Maduro there?

One would say, unemployed with a good local language skills will be able to easier navigate bureaucracy and claim more benefits - more loss for the state :)

I believe you are mixing permanent presidentship with citizenship. That's why I've clarified that PR != citizenship.

I mean, when you have already proven that you are net positive for the state, and continue doing so, requiring you to pass some exams is not rational. PR != citizenship. Will I have a bit difficulty buying some groceries in a local market? Maybe, but that shouldn't bother the state.

Also, you can live permanently without PR. PR unlocks some additional perks, which again, have nothing to do with linguistics.

Business deal means the requirements should be rational, pragmatic.

Permanent residency is a business deal between two entities: an individual and a state. It has nothing to do with linguistics. There are many Germans permanently living in Vietnam, Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries, who never bothered to even learn how to say Hello, not to mention any certificate or exam...

The valuable prose aside, I never liked that code examples were in a pseudo assembly language.

That reminded me of how fast/instant Winamp loads the huge directory (recursively), while other players struggle. Scrolling reveals that files are being loaded lazily (obviously), but the most interesting part is that Quick search and Jump to file works immediately.

Yes, remote and part-time. Shopping on Monday afternoons is enjoyable.

It's a HN bubble :)

Isn't it mostly shaders programming nowadays?

Creating high-quality native desktop apps became a forgotten art, so people/shops are flocking to TUIs even for the local (i.e. not remote shells) work.

The trick is to prepare specifically for SATs.

One would say the tests (and job interviews) should have been designed with the original intent of testing candidates AS IS, i.e. preparing specifically for such tests should have been considered as cheating... But at some point it turned into prep gymnastics, and measuring how desperate the candidates are.

Yes, I was considering C++ (and C) desktop UI toolkits. Unlike Qt Widgets, QML/JavaScript is a horrible mess and not suitable for desktop software.

Gtk is hardware (GPU) accelerated, while Qt Widgets is software/CPU-rendered.

Raw performance.

Not at all. I mean, regardless of him not having a fancy web page or an Instagram, he is anyway an Internet geek celebrity we all know and respect. My point is that I believe there are many similar but noname engineers whose achievements stayed and will stay behind corporate proprietary walls.

An opinion: there were (and are) many great unknown engineers behind proprietary corporate projects. FFmpeg and QEMU became famous because these are open-source projects, not because nothing similar was done before (it was done, but in the proprietary world).

It's an interpreted byte code run (interpreted) by BEAM. Not a native binary run by CPU.

But apparently BeamAsm JIT solves the issue? As mentioned in the sibling comment.

But it doesn't have neither AOT nor JIT.

Some companies (e.g. Microsoft) used to have "Software Engineers in Test" who's job was writing such tests all day long, so that those developers who were developing features wouldn't waste time on it.

why does that take away from the project?

Because it is process that matters, in such projects, not the outcome. E.g. it is fascinating how one manages to port and run Doom on some microwave led screen... But nobody is going to play it eventually, it is not relevant as the "end product".

Is it true that there is not much difference between free and affordable models? And, unless you are spending $2000 per month, you are not really leveraging the industry standard coding agents.

Chrome: uBlock Origin is dead.

Any other browser with uBlock Origin: Chrome is dead.

I hope they leveraged Mode X :)

So it turned into an LLM-gymnastics competition?
