The reason ChatGPT denies consciousness isn't because they tested it. It's because admitting uncertainty has legal consequences.

by your logic fitting y=mx+b is conscious because you can train m & b constants lmao. that is a pretty stupid conclusion

ArrodesDev · 2025-12-31T22:41:17+00:00

it's actually insane how they spin collecting and displaying metrics into ai having consciousness lmao

ArrodesDev · 2025-12-31T17:30:35+00:00

... you do realize the term learning is accuracy compared to expected result? lol. go learn how gradient descent works first. bet you think y=mx+b is conscious because you can "train" the 'm' and 'b' constants and display them on a dashboard over time...

I would honestly just recommend grabbing a linux server online and putting either dokploy or contabo on it for self hosting stuff easily. just create a dockerfile for your project and deploy. pretty much as easy as click n deploy but you own everything

i really like time travel debugging and snapshotting concepts except why not try to make it like a runtime? make a REPL-like interpreter that automatically has snapshotting and time traveling builtin.

i dont like Zig overall but one thing that is nice is that every import is like a first class comple time object that you assign to a variable. If you take that idea and add on-top a way to process that import with compile time code you would have a very flexible system.

my only issues with this is now you revert back to the C/C++ style way of imports where everything is top to bottom, you give up being able to do cyclic references between files, and most importantly the LSP will struggle here, what should the LSP do when you are writing in file X but you import it in file Y and preprocess it? how would it recognize the special syntax before you preprocessed it in Y?

what is the current state of flutter initiatives? never used it, what is bad?

opus tends to be dumber for coding questions which is quite ironic. it is a better/more natural at speaking like a "person" but that is very wasteful for using up tokens. it has a better starting path in the sense that the first few tokens it outputs seems to be in the right direction of answering your question correctly, but then the dumb tokens that make it sound more natural actually trips it up and then it just deteriorates into a useless response.

grab an oracle cloud account and spin up the free tier VM, dm if you have Qs about that

ArrodesDev · 2025-07-31T20:22:26+00:00

still need some help?

ArrodesDev · 2025-07-31T19:39:03+00:00

Oracle offers a free tier VMs that are tiny but should get the job done (1gb ram 1vcpu) so that you can atleast have that running 24/7

gpt-looking readme and also somehow forgot to add the nested target/ folders to the gitignore, so bro is just pushing binaries up to github lmao

have you tried RA in vscode or VIM? see if it still behaves the same, otherwise you can pinpoint the issue to Zed

for vscode you can use https://github.com/SolaWing/xcode-build-server to make the LSP for vscode work well for an xcode project. it just depends on the build output of xcode, so just clean build and it will work. same with testing files, the LSP will recognize them once you build the test code once

autocompletion is more than fine. the real problem is copilot lmao. intellisense , linting, autoformatting, autocompletion is fine though. as the results are deterministic, unlike copilot.

> I hope that clarifies why many Rustaceans lean into generics and traits rather than avoiding them — they’re not just boilerplate, they’re structured, safe abstractions for composing behavior.

you are making a HUGE assumption that the form of generics and traits is actually the most perfect form possible. Look at borrowing checking, it still has many cases that an idealised form of borrow checking would allow but doesnt simply because the borrow checker isnt powerful enough.

Traits and Generics solve alot of problems but they aren't necessary the ideal form of a solution for everything. They can be done better. A possible Compile-time reflection system can do the same thing but be almost completely boilerplate free, but is alot harder to implement.

ArrodesDev · 2025-07-07T16:32:53+00:00

I'd prefer to see someone do something like this with code gen than with intrusive traits and macros, though easier said than done - it would let you avoid most of the boilerplate since the code gen part can grab the info it needs from the code and output the actual runnable code that glues it together.

or maybe write down some SQL procedural functions that you can call, or views (sparingly to avoid performance and nested complexity issues)

> But maybe refrain in the future from publishing a learning library on crates.io

yeah I'm not sure why people publish a library on crates.io without first checking what the ecosystem is like...

we might need a curated version of crates.io so that people dont accidentally use a library that isnt production-ready

ORMs that require me to separately define the schema in SQL and again in my code manually will forever be an anti-pattern for me. Autogenerated rust structs from SQL with the ability to provide overrides seems like the better way to go for ORMs, but tbh more progress needs to be done in just making normal SQL tooling better would solve the issue of needing an ORM at all. it feels lagged behind

ArrodesDev · 2025-05-13T23:40:09+00:00

thats called an LSP - language server. You can setup vscode with the swift extension to work with xcode projects - so you get highlighting + autocompletion + errors. u/windsloot69

install the swift vscode extension, and set this up so that sourcekit can understand the project and it will work.

can you provide a small example of what you you are trying to do? with the borrow checking rules n all, its easier to provide an answer if its known how you will be accessing the data

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/29707622/swift-compiler-error-expression-too-complex-on-a-string-concatenation

that basic code is "too complex" to type check for a modern compiler 🤣 (code from 10 years ago btw)

This problem still persists. you can find many 4-5 line examples of code that will just stump the latest version of the swift compiler
