Thankfully it’s still in the uncanny valley.

On the tower defense, upgrading the Laser Tower (to Beam Emitter) breaks the game.

Took me a minute. And for good measure… ;

This should be what’s on the icon for Space@beehaw

Yeah but that’s why the cross-post feature exists in lemmy, so users can be part of similar communities without seeing the same story duplicated on their feed or having the conversation split in multiple places.

the future of complex web apps*

I can see in-browser games and containerized desktop application benefiting from wasm, but simple ecommerce sites without all the fluff can be just as performant with SSR or a multi-page application. For instance several years ago I built the frontend and middleware for the Hart Tools and Ryobi Tools websites using Nuxt for SSR and Algolia for the search. Images are the majority of CPU and network load and the websites are snappy as a result. Even this tech stack is overkill for what the websites need to do but my point is for general use case this or a similar tech stack won’t benefit from introducing wasm.

Since he’s touching the keyboard with unwashed hands it’s probably best he didn’t wipe.

Even setting up a vlan doesn’t work half the time because the mobile apps don’t talk directly with the appliance but phone home to a cloud service. A cloud service that will eventually go offline and leave the appliances orphaned. That’s how GE’s thermostats work.

This is exactly what I was talking about, thanks!

Someone should make a service like this except you actually upload the file directly to the other user rather than uploading it to a 3rd party (encrypted or not). Yes I get you would have to wait for the user on the other end to connect to you before the transfer starts but if you’re uploading 100+GB of data you’re going to be leaving that browser tab open for awhile anyways.

I think you’re underestimating how impossible a task it is for China to hit a moving target. Even so, their move towards isolationism is at odds with an industry that has the most complex and globally integrated supply chain in existence.

Haven’t used the original but I do enjoy letting pipes-rs run on idle terminals.

I do use helix but haven’t taken advantage of the git integration. Maybe I’m unaware of its power. For fish, I defined my own fish_prompt function with an indicator if there are uncommitted changes. It’s just running git status under the hood. I have a TODO in that function to run a pijul diff in the directory if git status returns nothing…

Wow I forgot all about this band. I love the comment “Red Djent Redemption”

The 1.0 is in beta. There has been a lot of refactoring to get it to this point. I would say there’s still many quality-of-life features missing that would stop me from using it in a professional setting but for hobby projects it’s meeting my needs (and gets better with each new beta build). They only have a few project backers but the main developer has been working very steadily on it.

This is actually why I prefer using pijul. I don’t want to commit my secrets to a git repo and nix will refuse to build because I’m pulling in files that aren’t tracked. Simple solution is to not make the flake directory a git repo and it won’t complain. That’s my solution at least. I also prefer using git (and therefore pijul) via cli rather than as a text editor integration so my experience differs.

I use it for self hosting because all I need installed is sshd and the pijul package. Then I can set my server’s ;p as my remote. The “nest” web UI (the Pijul equvivalent to git tea) is in development and not open source yet, but you can use the hosted version at https://nest.pijul.com/ if you’re curious.

Upvoting a classic. Watch his other talks too. Entertaining and thought provoking.

But it’s Linus so everybody likes to think everything he says is blunt and crass.
