Grey beard, fresh code.

I like compilers. I don't like unnecessary abstraction.

I appreciate the honesty of saying this is using electron.

I'm not sure what problem it actually solves or aims at solving other than being cool?

Visual orientation does matter in UX of the real world, video game worlds and to some degree operating systems, is this the goal?

Impressive work. There is a ton of work done in there.

You can improve it by giving a reason for people to want to adopt it. That is bring novel ideas and push the envelope.

I've been amazed by this jam. It's like bigger and better every year (in terms of jams going deeper and deeper).

I imagine we're 5 years away of "Make your own OS, language, compiler, VM and game in 12 minutes, 36 seconds. Extra points if you gave yourself a stroke."

Impressive work. I shipped couch multiplayer games on PS4 in the past and it has passed its heyday (it didn't do too well, financially).

So seeing it done on the web actually makes a lot of sense.

There are still plenty of things that VSCode does and Zed doesn't. E.g. Dart debugging.

Also there is the VC money problem with Zed, at some point, that money will want returns on every dollar spent.

It wouldn't hurt if they could capitalise their sentences every now and then.

All cargo companies run a wide fleet of many different plane types, particularly to avoid this very problem of being grounded by the FAA. But yes, these were still widely used in cargo transports. Although newer 2 engine planes can haul the same kg and use a lot less fuel.
