Never heard of Bun or Jarred before today I enjoyed his blog post about the migration to rust, it is an impressive feat if real ! I didnt see anything bad about Zig in the post, on the contrary it shows respect and that big projects can be done in Zig

Next, I read Andrew's post, and the thing I see is: Jarred looks like an achiever, Andrew more like a butthurt childish whiner I also can see why Jarred made the migration, it is not only technical, and it was a great call IMHO

You are missing the big picture here The AI literally was able to do a year's work of a top notch developer team in just 11 days (mainly because of a lot of human intervention, otherwise it would have been faster) Why do you think its cant or wont be able to replace the lead developer and/or designer's 11 day job !

and btw, if it can write code, it can write tests and test suite

Ai has come a long way, 2 years ago, this task would be impossible ! 1 year ago, it would hit a dead-end in the first hours of the execution

This blog post is nothing short of an amazing and fascinating tale, yet in some aspect very very scary ...

I have a similar generic receiver, with some "not genuine" hardware ID. I just force select & install the signed microsoft drivers. The trick works in all versions of windows that I tried.

Ive been using Openwith on firefox and chrome, and it works flawlessly

It needs a launcher (aka native host client) to start the 3rd party app, in this case mpv with the correct arguments.

The launcher is technically only started (then immediatly terminates) when you trigger the openwith action, so no memory/cpu overhead.

The official openwith solution is a python script (requires python), for windows there is a native and lightweight launcher: owclauncher

With this setup, you can launch any action with a simple right click: play in mpv, play in low resolution in mpv, download video/audio with youtube-dl, play in 2nd screen ...

The main reason I want to jailbreak my ipad

-sideload apps that cant get to the app store, not just for piracy,example :file manager, adblocker, firewall ...

Sure its doable without a jailbreak, but its restricted and require paying apple a yearly $100 developer fee

And some few extra cydia tweaks can be really usefull

I actually tested gnome and didnt like it.(I cant recall the exact reasons) I also spent considerable time with other DMs (kde5, lxde and unity), and ended up liking xfce

I think its a shame that the linux desktop software is so fragmented.

Sometime, I fantasize about a parallel world, with a parallel linux trovalds working solely and maintaining THE linux desktop manager

I tried multiple desktop managers. Everyone had its own perks.

Coming from windows, xfce felt the most natural for me.

I also considered implementing the feature, but it was out of my skill set(probably doable with enough effort and time).

Never said it was useless, it was a feeling of using an unpolished product.

Sure !

I see it as very basic feature for a modern desktop/window manager.

I used the default window manager that comes with xfce.

I tried setting up other window managers in xfce, and come to the conclusion it is not straightfoward, and the integration with the rest of the system is not perfect.

Also it was a feeling of imperfection that pushed me back (I am sure you can setup the linux desktop for your liking if you tried enough)

There is much direct and easier way to pass a link or the current page's URL to an external program using "open with" browser addon + owclauncher (https ://github.com/mbooga/owclauncher)

On firefox/chrome/opera for windows, you can do this easily with "open with" addon +/- owclauncher
