Serifs are so back and I'm so excited.

ChatGPT kicked off with 3.5, now this is the reverse. Would be fun to drag race these against each other, the harbinger of a revolution against now the fast path serve billions model.

YouTube's hostility is truly remarkable, by far the most egregious that the Subscriptions page in the TV app having a dedicated row for "recommendations" and "shorts" before you can proceed.


Codex CLI switched from a typescript implementation to a Rust based one.


My latest favorite is now that the Subscriptions panel adds a bonus "Recommended" row at the top, and then two rows down, a "Recommended Shorts"


I really hope it's not going to take years to be sold in Australia, like the Steam Deck took.


I'm fairly sure/wishful thinking that the reason the last round of Valve hardware was very late/absent in Australia was because it was the time that the ACCC took Valve to court for its no refunds policy (and won). Now that Valve has rectified that and are in good standing in Australia, I'm hoping we see all this new hardware ASAP, alongside the rest of the world.


The VR base stations and controllers were/are also hard to get.


For those curious, I found this to be a very entertaining retelling of events from Nortel's persepective: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6xwMIUPHss


I was road testing tool calling in LM Studio a week ago against a few models marked with tool support, none worked, so I believe it may be a bug. Had much better luck with llama.cpp’s llama-server.


This is mainly for fun, really.

Tsoding's main lesson is how simple systems can be and the desire and demand for complex build systems is silly.


> the desire and demand for complex build systems is silly

No it isn't. "Simple" build systems like Make don't solve many of the problems that "complex" build systems like Bazel do.

At my current company I tried to convince my boss at the start of our project to use Bazel (it's very difficult to change build systems once your project is big), because I knew from experience it would solve many problems we would eventually run into.

He wouldn't let me and wanted to keep things "simple". Guess what happened? Now we have to run dozens of hours of CI just to fix a typo in a comment. CI regularly breaks because people forget dependencies. Etc.


Make is definitely not a simple system. In tsodings latest stream about this project he actually implemented a small build/test runner system for it that is really simple.

But actually I would disagree with the commenter you replied to. I think the main goal of this project seems to just be doing it for fun.


I would argue that the baseline for a "simple build system" is DJB Redo.


You see it in Windows 10, as well. Seeing the "working on it" when navigating folders, as if I'm using 5400 RPM hard disk drives.


To be fair, NTFS is just slow and awful and we’ve all known about it for a while.

I’m sure the new UI piled on top doesn’t help, but as a consolation, the core software is shit too.


using win 7 with 5400 RPM drives... it's still fast...
