I really enjoyed this video!

It needs good feedback. Agentic systems like Roo Code and Claude Code run compilers and tests until it works (just gotta make sure to tell it to leave the tests alone)

I used Claude 3.7 to upgrade my eslint configs to flat and upgrade from v7 to v9 with Roo Code and it did it perfectly

Old habits die hard? I used to administer old SunOS machines that didn’t have less (and would take considerable effort to install on all of the machines) so these days I just alias more to less

No worries, l definitely plan to use it in Docker, so I’ll give it a go and if I can I’ll submit PRs for anything I find

Oooh, I never considered doing this. I’ll check it out!

Yeah, I’d say Kitty and Alacritty work pretty well on Linux. Makes this comparison table seem like bs

I wonder how much this will affect the power usage during boot on my laptop with its integrated AMDGPU. Granted, boot time is fairly short so hopefully this won’t really matter.

May I assume this will run exceptionally well on a steam deck?

I’m tempted to publish an NPM package to do so as a joke, but I fear that it’d get used seriously

Oh wow, this is amazing info. Thanks!

I feel like this is a perfect encapsulation of how an experienced self-aware developer thinks. Experience really beats the hard stances out of you. I find myself saying “it depends” and “a bit of column A, bit of column B” often, like a cheap kids toy

His take strangely acknowledges that defects are caused by programmers, yet doesn’t want to improve the tools we use to help us not make these mistakes. In summary, git gud.

Experience has taught me that I’m awfully good at finding and firing foot guns, and when I use a language that has fewer foot guns along with good linting, I write reliable code because I tend to focus on what I want the code to do, not how to get there.

Declarative functional programming suits me down to the ground. OOP has been friendly to me, mostly, but it also has been the hardest to understand when I come back to it. Experience has given me an almost irrational aversion to side effects, and my simple mind considers class members as side effects

I just followed that exact tutorial and got Assassin’s Creed: Syndicate working. Went pretty much perfectly. The only hitch I had was I missed the bit about needing quotes when changing the paths.

I didn’t have any trouble with download speeds, mine was downloading at our full 100Mb/s

I recently got my copy of AC: Origins refunded because of the Uplay launcher not working and couldn’t find a solution at the time. I’ll definitely be trying this for Syndicate.

Yeah, this is my colleagues waiting for me, poor bastards

I thought that as long as the kernel is new enough, the Radeon driver should already be in the kernel

I recommend LunarVim for VS Code users too

I too adored Braid. I think it was the first puzzle platformer that I truly enjoyed

I really liked this game until one of the boss fights was too difficult and I couldn’t proceed. I thought I had a pretty good handle on the combat too. Guess it’s not for filthy casuals like me
