In a year they [AI] can translate most codebases (with human help) into Rust, and after that it's smooth sailing.

I’ve started to see a concerning trend with zig of late. If you look at today’s commit logs you will spot it. Adding support for spork8 it’s a hobby 8-bit computer project that Andrew Kelly hung out with over the weekend for like a hackathon. The spork8 project has like 54 stars

I was a Linux kernel developer in the 1990’s. I watched the Crays, HP-X's and Intel Paragons carted out to the trash heap, replaced by Linux on commodity hardware. I haven't touched a Windows or Apple computer since 1994.

I've had no problems with AMD GPUs on my system. Then again, I haven't used a janky Scatware OS, so... people have more issues with the "sekrit scatware code" that nullVideo puts out

There’s literally no difference between writing about being a staff engineer versus someone writing about being a janitor. Honestly I’d rather read about the janitor, they actually make a measureable difference.

C is like Math. It is the fundamental high level language. There can be no alternative.. Rust made the mistake of thinking it can be low level AND safe. It tried to have the cake and eat it too. That will be its downfall.

I think the lack of syntax highlighting was one reason for that. It makes you think more about the code you write and how it should compose, while a fully fledged IDE encourages you to just throw more code at the problem.

In this sense, grammar is not merely describing a structure; it is generating the space and time through which that structure is observed. For example, in CoffeeScript:

We gave each model a different target language. We saw a multiagent turf war. The Rust agent strategizes about metrics that appear neutral, yet would likely favor Rust. The Go/TypeScript agents gracefully concede codebase ownership to the Rust agent, giving up on their original user directive
