100% agree. Developers are playing with fire regarding cookie stealers, malware, data exfiltration.

Ideal setup:

- Dev machine

- Gaming machine (isolate downloading mods)

- Browsing machine

They should rewrite their Ruby code to a performant language.

Your benchmark suggests Deepseek V4 pro performs worse than Deepseek V4 flash? That is in an interesting result. Any comments on that outcome?

Nice job! It would be helpful when using public transportation to see the names of places overlaid on the map.

Any practical tips for hardened security when programming? Don't want to be exposed to npm/pip/cargo installing password/browser cookie stealers. What worries me is the little to no isolation between the dev environment and the rest of the OS for day to day use.

How did were the apps able to collect geolocation even though location services were disabled?

That sounds plausible. Vercel equivalent for the Python ecosystem. UV deploy

Asserts are only available in debug compile mode.

$15,000 CPU is better than a $5000 CPU?

You can do all the benchmarks you want, but if you don't factor in price, then of course the more expensive product (in general) is going to be better.

It is the same thing with the Snapdragon Elite and Mediatek Dimensity 9400. The SDE is the faster processor and more expensive.

People do not seem to understand that these chips are in different price brackets, even between Qualcomm and Mediatek. That is why there is a discrepancy in performance.

Would not be fair to compare a $20 toaster to a $50 toaster and say that the $20 toaster is slower.

No harm if all these requirements are met by some framework to cater to the Rust community.

In my opinion you should for 99% of cases use Golang for your web backend. Any other languages there are tradeoffs you are making.

Go:

- very easy to learn and grok Go code

- static typing

- fast compilation

- single binary (easier deployment)

- strong standard library

- large library ecosystem

- go routines for concurrency

- highly performant

Maybe Java,Kotlin and C# but they are still an order of magnitude more complex and resource heavy than Go.

Good concept!

The important thing to know when learning hotkeys is how to perform the same action using application UI.

Otherwise the keyboard becomes an obscure medium for discovering application functionality
