@lritter yes I understand however I see Rust as a one of the best refactoring programming languages once you try from the beginning. The strict borrow checker, its types, lints, generic, macros so many amazing tools to use but only once you figure out of course. You can only connect dots in reverse.

@greenmoonmoon after writing it second time - possible. I find myself refactoring stuff like changing a fully concept from 200 to 50 lines that took 10 hours. Now I know how I can reproduce it in 1 hour.

@lritter any high level programming language (code abstractions) is declarative but on the low level (machine code) aspect it's imperative 😆
Can anyone tell me how many homes or small businesses one can power with 10GW (gigawatts)?
The reason I ask is that Nvidia is investing $100 billion in OpenAI to build a 10 GW data center with millions of GPUs. This is another way to fuck up our planet, and your electric bill will go up. But of course, they don’t care about such things. There is absolutely no bubble 🤬 The last time dot com happened, it took more than 15 years to recover from that mess.

If you're still on X11, I want to know why, I don't want theoretical things you could do but don't actually care about. But the actual real reasons that X11 is keeping you on it.
Talked to IRL friends about the Liquid Glass stuff, they really love it, esp. the transparent icons. I've seen lots of people here complain about it feeling "dated", but honestly if I were to guess I'd say that's because a lot of designers on here got into design when Flat/Material started replacing Skeumorphism. So I guess I'm in a bubble here 🤷♀️

Yes thank you! A digital only future is a big problem for videogames preservation. Historically companies aren’t great at saving their own products and/or source code from disappearing.

I pay a roughly flat $85/month now (~$75 for mailsending, $10 for hosting), vs. 10% of all my subscription income.
Here’s some napkin math for how expensive Substack is compared to its competitors, assuming that roughly 7% of all subscribers will pay for their subscriptions, and that subscriptions cost $5/month.
* Assuming $12 hosting fees, but you can get this number down lower. Assumes ~weekly email sending.
** There may be additional fees to monetize MailChimp newsletters since it’s not built-in. This also assumes ~weekly email sending.
Flat fees calculated based on cheapest plans. Also calculated based on annual billing, if month-to-month amounts differ.
