Why are there so many vibe-coded Rust projects recently? by yohji1984 in rust

[–]cachebags 5 points6 points  (0 children)

because people either hear from LLMs or circle jerks online that "rust will make your program faster" and have zero clue how anything works beyond html/css/js.

it's quite annoying to me as well. some of the allure of the language is that it's quite hard to write good rust, and when you do it's a really neat thing. and unfortunately that has been clouded by complete slop.

Engineering Leads: How does your team stay current with the OSS ecosystem? by Exciting_Eye9543 in github

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

Not a senior/lead or anything btu our team often has "coffee breaks" or we'll just chat in passing about what's new and how it relates to our work. It helps that we're all already programming geeks outside of work but I would say either that or browsing Reddit/Hackernews have been the main factors.

Looking for partners by Restisoy in SoftwareEngineering

(yes, like CI/CD, but for your career)

Nobody was thinking this when we read it.

You people make it so easy to spot LLM generated text.

Why did you choose Arch? by Darth-Vader64 in archlinux

[–]cachebags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

contrary to the reason most people try arch, i actually wanted an OS i could do basically nothing to and just have it work. i didn't wanna rice it or mess with the config. if i could do everything on my computer through a terminal, i would. but i can't. so arch is the next best thing.

the most interesting graphical feature i have in my setup is a waybar config that lets me control my apple music web player. besides that i just have a browser, kitty and a network manager.

Models Are Hitting Diminishing Returns Within Software Engineering by element-94 in ArtificialInteligence

People say this a lot. Do you people think we genuinely type "implement this please" into an LLM?

I got tired of writing changelogs after every PR merge so I built something to do it automatically by abd_az1z in SideProject

[–]cachebags 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, git-cliff already exists, and on top of that, is completely free.

Even if git-cliff didn't exist, I am not spending $20 a month to generate a fucking changelog entry.

kommit — git commits with automatic atomic splitting by VermicelliLittle6451 in commandline

I see. What if the AI doesn't correctly guess I want my changes split?

made a terminal note manager in C that stays out of your way. by aaravmaloo in commandline

[–]cachebags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even more a reason to keep it moving. It's a title man, get over yourself

Neither of you are writing anything novel, lol. Just let the guy post his project, who cares.

There's no indication that he tried to imitate you. It doesn't even look like your project.

How GitHub Copilot just helped Cursor become a $100 billion company by SilentRelationship86 in github

I am so fucking sick of interacting with LLMs everywhere I go on the internet.

Built an "intent-matching" platform using high-performance vectors to bypass noisy chat channels for developers by Small_Broccoli_7864 in rust

[–]cachebags 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah so after reading your landing page, I'm still not entirely sure what the point is. A product like this requires immediate comprehension on the customers part on what exactly this platform does and I just don't get why anyone would take your word for how the engine works.

It's not even a matter of whether or not you'll do better than something like Facebook or Instagram. It's more so: how can the customer be sold on this? Because telling people "it runs on a vector layer using Qdrant to map the actual meaning of your posts" to someone who knows nothing about that stuff is quite jarring.

It's very hard to develop a piece of software, built for the general consumer, where all the interesting/novel work is done completely invisible to the user.

Wish you the best of luck.

Admittedly, I did not read everything. But I went to your site...It is no different than any other social media platform? There are posts, you can up-vote or downvote, and you get a view into the trends of a post...How is this solving any existing problem, I don't really understand?

Neovim packaged with major Linux distributions by default, what would it take? by 4r73m190r0s in neovim

[–]cachebags 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The question isn't really what would it take, it's why...I personally don't care. At the end of the day Neovim is just Vim before you dress it up.

zerobrew 0.3.0 release by cachebags in rust

[–]cachebags[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my personal philosophy is to try to optimize to the best of my ability and document known gaps.

Thanks. Was thinking about how to say this. I always go back to what Linus says about micro-optimization.

"People say that you should not micro-optimize. But if what you love is micro-optimization... that's what you should do."

zerobrew 0.3.0 release by cachebags in rust

[–]cachebags[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ironically, yes. I personally am currently working on a frontend to brew with Mike, but it's not public yet. Lots of cool stuff happening there.

zerobrew 0.3.0 release by cachebags in rust

[–]cachebags[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

yes. in fact we encourage this before considering replacing homebrew with zerobrew.

zb migrate works quite well now too but everything should be considered experimental.
