Can someone who uses Xcode daily compare to say Cursor or VsCode how the developer experience is. Just curious how Apple is keeping up

Have used this for a hackday recently, found it easy to use, even for a complete newcomer.

This seemed like an inevitability given the reliance on enterprise customers and the move to maximise the revenue from Terraform with the recent license change. They have made a round of layoffs, so at least some cost saving has already been done to make it more appealing for a sale. The main challenge from an acquisition like this will be maintaining the community around terraform providers, if that drops off, i'm not sure there will be as many developers coming into the hashicorp ecosystem.

Last year while working in a nix using team, Golang was lagging behind on nix by a few months, I wanted to use a new feature from the latest version and it lead to some awkward conversations. Nix is not a drop in replacement for homebrew, nor is it fast when it comes to community updates. If you have a small number of packages it works well, but if you only use a few number of packages, why do you need a heavy package manager.

I see a lot of these data providers investing in chat style interfaces too, the main plus with aws is all the extra data a Confluence chat interface won’t have for example. Not sure how you reconcile inconsistent data from say slack and confluence. If they get it right though, this will be the top of the stack for AI for a lot of companies

gotta love a custom cursor

Do americans really call Lego bricks Legos? Based on the comments, it seems common enough, I always thought it was a plural like data

Are there good video resources for Retool in general, I looked at some youtube videos and found mostly creating a basic database view with a form. Any more substantial examples?

For those on the M2 Pro mac mini path, the Mac Studio looks a look more appealing. 32GB RAM, Max CPU and more ports for the same money. Will have to wait for benchmarks, but seems like more computer for the money if you upgrade the mini

For those people who use a high workstation, what is the typical price? I feel like people spending more than 10k on a machine must not be bothered, they want the performance

...pristine FLAC quality into my BluSound Node, which is plugged into my Hegel amplifier...

Spotify isn't for you, its for people who want a reasonable sound played on affordable headphones, which it does the best IMO.

What do you use to orchestrate firecracker?

meticulously? What is it that Microsoft has really copied in the last five years?

There are lots of people, especially YouTube commentators who will rush to attack anyone who is seemed to have hated on their favourite creator. It doesn’t matter who started what, it ended with apparent threats which is not ok

Honestly thought this was going to be satire about molly mae hague
