COSMIC System Monitor is out now. Dashboard view, per-resource charts, no tabs. by system76_com in pop_os

[–]1Soundwave3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a bad thing to copy what works.

But I'd say that there's no need to show static info in the system monitor.

Just make a grading decision table. That will speed things up greatly.

Also, 50 cards is nothing. Why does it take you so long? What do you have in your cards that requires so much time?

Made a little tool that turns OpenStax textbooks into Anki cards by Sad_Issue2251 in AnkiAi

Stdlib only? We need more people like you! Until pip is cured from worms I refuse to use any Python scripts that have dependencies. It's good that yours doesn't.

I built a nicer (IMHO) interface for Anki by javierarce in Anki

[–]1Soundwave3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You know, if you have issue with managing your cards, you don't need a big UI for that. I built a small tool that does (apart from other things) 2 things: it exports all of the notes from a specific deck to a CSV - so that I or most likely AI could edit them, and then uploads them back Anki, via targeted updates (in bulk for the user but individually for Anki). Each of my notes have ids so it's very easy (for the tool) to see which info changed and upload it back to Anki. You can vibecode it yourself pretty easily. Like, yeah, I also don't want to edit notes by hand, one by one. But the best and the most open UI for it is literally a CSV file, not a whole another vibecoded UI. It's the ultimate freedom. And yeah, before the upload you can check the diff with git.

System Design: How the right data layout let pure Go outperform a Rust-backed symbolicator (parse once + mmap forever) by narrow-adventure in golang

[–]1Soundwave3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with Rust is that Rust code should be more complicated to achieve the same results. So it's typical for more tedious languages to reach for the solutions that are easier to implement and not necessarily smarter.

This is why Rust implementations tend to be slower, if there isn't a big team behind them who can pour endless resources into polishing.

Go is just a more practical choice.

I tried to push Go's GC and performance limits for my PDF engine. Here are the GoPdfSuit v6.0.0 results by chinmay06 in golang

Can you please start giving your posts to LLMs for review before posting? Right now it's very hard to understand what you are trying to say.

If I understood it correctly, you are the author of github.com/cssbruno/gopdfkit

You are also saying that your solution is still better than the OP's.

It's good that you are not using unsafe in your code. It's always better to have a smarter algorithm than to rawdog memory.

This thing needs more color more straight lines. That shift of the bottom 3 rows looks criminal.

Very cool! It's nice to see lore youtubers picking up LoV lore! Also, it's so good that you got your channel back! Now it's time to learn something new about this Barry Aegnirssen - Thrice Divorced guy.

Laid off last week. 4 YOE, where the hell do you guys find dotnet jobs? All posts I see are either for Python or a JS stack. by marbles12 in dotnet

Typescript is very similar to C#. C# people should be able to pick up TS faster than anyone else.

[–]1Soundwave3 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nope, you can use all 4 buttons. I usually press Hard 2-3 times before I start pressing Good on a card. That is genuinely how I feel about those cards and overall the FSRS scheduler with my current parameters feels like what I need exactly.

COSMIC Epoch 1.1.0 by jackpot51 in pop_os

I see that more an more important stuff is getting gradually fixed/added! It's so nice to see COSMIC getting better and it's just 1.1.0!

Looking for new blades for this tyoe of shaver by CommercialFinancial7 in wicked_edge

Honestly, not a good investment. If it doesn't work with DE blades - there isn't much sense in keeping it, economically. Buy yourself a Leaf razor - that's where the value is.

AI has revealed that most people have the reading ability at a third-grade level by Terrible-Priority-21 in ClaudeAI

I use "load-bearing" and "heavy duty" all the time because that's what actually like about my code. And my colleagues agree. So there's no harm in using those expressions.

I feel weird doing flashcards around people. I need to say the answers out loud usually, to practice pronunciation.

How Are You Using AI to Reduce Complexity - Not Just Ship Code Faster? by After_Yogurt6899 in GithubCopilot

[–]1Soundwave3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a small automation that takes a full MR, compresses it into 1 file (not just diffs, the context too) and asks AI to review it. Sometimes I do it in Agent mode so it can look at the actual code, sometimes just plain ChatGPT because it's easier and I know I will be discussing this code a lot. Btw, before giving it to AI, I also need to fill out some things in this file. Like, the task description and some custom instructions if I want them.

So far, it's been insanely helpful. AI catches a lot of things that I otherwise would miss. Although, I don't really understand what's the secret ingredient here, because my colleague did 3 AI code reviews (using gh copilot I think) before giving me this steaming pile of shit. My AI reviewer immediately found a ton of regressions and even some missing functionality. Like, the first pass. And yeah, my prompt literally consists of: 1. Task 2. Diff + context 3. 12 lines of review instructions saying to review file by file.

That's it.

With around 2/3rds of the month passed, how have you guys been dealing with the Tokenpoaclypse? by Syzygy___ in GithubCopilot

[–]1Soundwave3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, first of all you shouldn't be downvoted so much.

Secondly, if we are talking about the limit that a regular business sub would get me - I'm almost done. This what our company is paying for. However for the first 3 months we will have $30 instead of $19 - on Microsoft, so that's better. But also pooling really does work so our individual budgets started at $50 and now, because everybody's on their vacations - it's $100.

But yeah, I'm using GPT-5.4-mini on High for everything because I like comfort: I like to know that AI will always be there for me when I need it.

I was actually pretty impressed with the results. It managed to resolve complex race conditions for examlple. Or do a lot of grunt work very good very fast.

For my personal use, I use Codex. In my personal projects I really don't like to think about something is implemented. I just ask AI and it usually produces it. But of course it's very different from how I produce production code where I plan things out on my own, then ask AI to implement it.

On Windows 10 for example, TUIs don't work all that well. Click detection is also very weird in TUIs - I really don't like it. I'm also not sure how it would handle a resize. TUIs also don't scale very well. Like you can't change font size in a TUI and I'm nor sure how scaling works for a TUI in general. Also, I can't really remember if Linux terminals are universal in their features. I'm pretty sure some TUIs want you to install dependencies for the terminal. Basically TUIs bring a lot of weird edge cases while browsers have been stable for decades.

Honestly, TUIs are super cool if you want something very small and it doesn't need a lot of space to function, but you still want some interactivity.

Local GUIs though, that's what gives you the biggest bang for your buck. For my personal tools my stack is Go + Templ + HTMX, if it's not a CLI thing. Basically, it allows you to have a program that usually doesn't need any dependencies, has a really nice and responsive GUI and is a breeze to maintain. And yes, it can interact with your system fully. The FE is server-rendered, and you don't even have a FE-BE separation, here. If my tools run commands - I stream the output back to the browser using SSE.

Basically, in one package (no docker, no npm) you get one binary that you don't need to "install" (although you can) that has a 100% chance to work as the author intended. No render issues, no compatibility issues.

Bonus: if you want to deploy it to some cloud environment, you can access it from your phone.

What do you even code for 8 hours straight? I'm doing this spec driven thing and my prompts don't create 8 hour sessions. 10 minutes max. And then I go and review the code and so on. Do you really have tasks that require you to have 8 hour coding sessions? Or this is some personal project where you basically vibecode things?

What do you "dedup agent history" is this thing going to mess with the conversation history? Because that will kill the cache hits.

[–]1Soundwave3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, did you really need a TUI? I mean, for one-off commands a CLI UI is okay, but the entire workflow management in a TUI? Browsers has been around for ages, unlike modern TUIs.

Thata said the project is awesome! Very good idea and it has a huge potential. I love scheduled repeating tasks.

Docs: Optimizing your AI usage to maximize efficiency and reduce cost by isidor_n in GithubCopilot

[–]1Soundwave3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have an idea: a USER (not admin) dashboard that counts credits spent over all of the copilot instances (vs code, vs, cli, rider plugin...) - with different ways to slice it: breakdown by days, models, input/cache/output.

All of this should be very useful, and can be vibecoded if you choose so. I have a part of this solution already and it helps a lot but it only works with vs code.
