Yes but where can i get the classic GUI? 😁

Been writing a NES emulator for a while. Works well enough but there is a new automated test available. My emulator does ok, but not good enough. Going to try and improve things.

Where’s the drunken conglomeration that is Scala?

Btw. It’s my favorite language

This is why i love flakes. Can finally partition the beast of nixpkgs!

Ooo Nokia should rise from the grave and build interesting phones again!

I’m absolutely certain Google/Apple duopoly is why cell phones are miserable rehashes years after year. No reason to innovate.

100% accurate.

As somebody reducing mongodb at work: postgres first would have saved so much trouble!

I’m on the more powerful the better side. So for me, Scala is the weakest type system I like working with.

Practically tho: aside from the issues you mention, the type checker for python would be a great aid for a broader range of developers than myself!

I don’t think a powerful type system can be added to python effectively. Even more convinced of this after reading “minimize false positives”.

Otoh, how strong of a type system is required for effective development? Probably what can be shoehorned into python tbh.

Sounds like they are developing win32 code. The resource id nonsense is very win32.

So yes: instant legacy code. Win32 is dead.

The whiplash from the whataboutism must hurt

Yea i don’t know what the above is on about. Social studies included civics and history.

The processor definition is in Scala using Chisel. This produces an HDL (what’s needed for actual hardware) using a typed embedded domain specific language. This also compiles to a software model for validation. But that’s not the same as “software only”

I’m getting Juicero vibes

Egg. Salad greens. Tofu. Whiskey.

Beyond All Reason is really interesting. There is a long history there! The engine was originally made to play Total Annihilation mods (or the full game? Not sure). That evolved over something like 15 years!

The end result though is not just a good open source game but a damn good RTS with an awesome scene. I <3 BAR.

Anyways, aside from fawning over BAR what’s my point?

Plan for the long game: these projects can take a long time to gain traction.

They are an international business and recognize an easy way to gain favoritism.

Sad times

That does constrain the optimizations to a profile determined prior to the end user. Which is hopefully the same but might not be. Shared code between applications also is a challenge.

Just sticking AI on everything these days.

Scala 3 native. If the compiler was faster I’d be even happier. Curious to try Ada
