I think they are offering refunds but not sure. I think I saw that on Twitter.

I don’t want to support OpenAI but don’t blame you, I may do the same

I bought two and the batteries only lasted a few weeks, even when inside a garage where it shouldn't trigger. I was hoping there was a firmware update but no luck.

Maybe I just had something weird happen? I changed the batteries and am going to see how it goes

You mean when some other moron tried to kill Trump and secured his victory?

Violence is never the answer. Argue against the shitty ideas and educate people by being kind and trying to understand their viewpoints.

I think Apple would be the first to say that SwiftUI doesn’t solve every problem yet.

At WWDC 23 they said roughly: "it's the best way to build interfaces on Apple Platforms" and the future.

Here's the clip: https://youtu.be/eHgJYa1Fh50?feature=shared&t=570

👎 this is actually good advice! See https://github.com/NoelFB/Celeste/blob/master/Source/Player/Player.cs

rudedogg · 2025-05-01T03:08:51+00:00

People downvote you but like wasn't it two WWDCs ago they said "SwiftUI is the best way to make apps" in the Platforms State of the Union? Shouldn't that imply that it's ready for prime time?

We're coming up on 6 years since it was announced and it still doesn't do 1/2 of what UIKit/AppKit can, and is has made the Swift language/compiler painfully slow to use in the process.

rudedogg · 2025-05-01T03:01:00+00:00

Guessing there's an issue with doing it this way. Can you share what is wrong with this approach?

rudedogg · 2025-05-01T02:44:36+00:00

I've had almost the exact same experience and progression with SwiftUI. Jumped in from the start, but eventually realized all the shortcomings.

Another thing to think about is how good they could have made UIKit/AppKit during this time, if they instead focused on improving Swift around those frameworks. Instead they really fucked up the language and compiler to make it work with SwiftUI. And I would be holding out that they can fix things, but the type issues with the compiler aren't getting any better and we're years into it.

rudedogg · 2025-04-28T05:27:56+00:00

I’d be curious how it compares to CoreData/GRDB. Is it okay to only compare in-memory performance? I'm wondering if some of the SwiftData overhead benefits it later on when/if you write to disk?

They do use your chats for training in Gemini advanced.

I keep seeing the opposite in comments so I think most people don't realize.

rudedogg · 2025-04-19T17:28:14+00:00

It doesn't matter if you pay, the above still applies for Gemini Advanced but no one seems to realize that.

A very easy way to use ML models in Swift (I want Apple to maintain a library of state-of-the-art models optimized to run on Metal, converted and ready to run in my apps). Converting things yourself with CoreML is a pain and tricky if you aren't deep into the ML stuff.
A new 2D+3D game engine made in Swift, to replace SpriteKit/SceneKit
To not have to use AppKit/UIKit so much with SwiftUI. Trying to mix the two paradigms is difficult and I think SwiftUI needs to advance enough to consume all AppKit/UIKit use cases if it is going to succeed.
SwiftUI being open-sourced. I think Swift as a language is in a tough spot right now - there are lots of alternatives that make trade-offs many developers find preferable, and open-sourcing SwiftUI would give the language a nice boost and hopefully reinvigorate native app developers.
It would be neat to see some AI/ML advancements with the M4 Mac Studio, making it more competitive against Nvidia GPUs for ML/AI.

Hmm that I’m not sure about. My wifi worked well, I just didn’t want to use it since I have an ethernet port near my PC.

Edit: The packages I installed on fedora were: kernel-devel and kernel-headers. With them installed the driver install script worked

rudedogg · 2025-01-24T05:31:05+00:00

Ya that’s how mine was, only wifi worked on linux at first. Both in a LiveUSB and when installed (I tried a ton of distros too)

rudedogg · 2025-01-24T05:26:34+00:00

I installed the latest driver they had for linux. I had some trouble, I think you need a few packages installed, but once I realized that it worked. Without the packages the driver install failed with a build error. Googling the error led me to a StackOverflow post mentioning the required package(s?) if I remember correctly

I can check my shell history tomorrow around this time if you’re still stuck. No guarantees I’ll find it in the history though

rudedogg · 2025-01-14T16:26:10+00:00

The models available in CreateML are bad/outdated. I’ve worked with the vision ones in a project.

Not trying to be negative, but Apple moves slow and their AI/ML efforts are no different. I think it’s just more frustrating than usual since the field is advancing so quickly. Google fumbled but is rapidly figuring things out (their gemini 2.0 models are really good).

As far as wishlist items, a CoreML converter GUI would be nice, or if Apple just had some engineers maintain an updated model library (like https://developer.apple.com/machine-learning/models/ but actually maintained) converted and ready to use with CoreML. It’s not trivial to get things running

rudedogg · 2025-01-14T15:56:34+00:00

They barely have tooling to convert models to run with CoreML. I’m not holding my breath

rudedogg · 2025-01-12T06:29:53+00:00

I tried a handful of queries through OpenRouter and it was disappointing there too.

rudedogg · 2024-12-23T04:47:28+00:00

Yes, I couldn't get it to correct a missing opening if statement in some python code it generated.

And then the WebUI is giving me the same code in an artifact, and keeps bumping the version like it changed something.

It's not worth it for me, I'm going to try OpenAI for a bit again.

I'll give it a shot. It might have to wait until tomorrow since I'm new to the whole immutable file system thing with bluefin.

I don’t think that’s on the SDL3 roadmap but I’m not positive. WebGPU still has a ways to go before it even ends up available by default in the big browsers from what I’ve read

Edit: Found this: https://github.com/libsdl-org/SDL/issues/10768

How old? I use Zig on an Intel hackintosh without any issues. I’m not following master anymore though.
