Look at this fancy guy using an abacus. Everyone knows the superior way is to harness your own mind as your computer.

It’s way worse on C and it’s family. I still have nightmares with undocumented embedded dependencies that are so intertwined with the codebase that make JS look like a godsend.
Servo is being actively worked on. Maybe it can become a worthy adversary to chrome?
Well, Threads was meant as a Twitter competitor. Seems like the toxicity levels are starting to get on-par.
Adobe needs to stay the hell away, full stop.
The only complaint I have, and it’s not really a problem with the OS itself, is that the Realtek driver is unstable at best, and will crash every five minutes.
I heard the voice line as I was reading it. Excellent and memorable game series.
I’d rather wait until 2025 than having a Cyberpunk 2.0. I waited 10 years, I think I can handle 1 or 2 more.
And OP talks about Alchemy, which commonly uses the energy that different materials have inherently to create magical artifacts.
It’s literally using what God already created.
If it involves pointers, not unlikely.
In many cases, yes.
But they are still better than most of the world, not that the bar is that high.
node_modules is so heavy it is the supermassive black hole at the center of the galaxy.
Honestly, given the context of a browser, Javascript’s “Everything is better than crashing” philosophy does not seem too out-of-place. Yes, the website might break, but at least it would be theoretically usable still.
Yes, a statically typed language would help, but I’d rather not have one that is “these two types are slightly different, fuck you, have a segfault”, but rather one that is slightly more flexible.
With C, you need to carefully craft your own gun with just iron ingots and a hammer. You will shoot yourself in the foot, but at least you’ll have the knowledge that it was your craftsmanship that led to it.
With C++, there are already prebuilt guns and tons of modifications that you can combine at will. If you shove it in the right way, you can make a flintlock shoot a 50 cal, but don’t complain when your whole leg gets obliterated.
And yet somehow it evolved to become something that will last to the heat death of the universe.
I’ve grown used to it with time, though. Once you know it’s “quirks”, it’s not so bad.
In realistic terms, I don’t think the Butlerian Jihad would have that much of a chance. I’d bet on Skynet and it’s Judgment Day happening first.
That is, when AI truly exists. Right now, we have essentially gargantuan amounts of glorified if-else spaghetti.
An AGI with virtually no restrictions and an extensive knowledge of all information humanity has ever gathered?
Make a computer that governs the world fairly and for the people, cause God knows we can’t.
Windows startup repair did unbrick my system a couple of times, and the network troubleshooter fixes the issues most of the time, so yes they have.
Definitely living the moment, cause it won’t be more than that.
However, do keep in mind that LLMs regularly pull language an library features out of their asses that have no direct correspondent in practice. I’d use the LLMs to generate small snippets of code, giving them a small and restricted set of requirements to minimize hallucinations.
