Unfortunately no. Just starting it. Got the proof of concept loading a dir with its sub-dirs then rendering on the GPU in textures silky smooth. 1.7mb executable, but will need to level up to SDL and that will double the size I think.

I agree. It is #zilchnotesfollow for now. Will do better next time, but in my defence the text above the text box (when writing a new message, not a reply) says “What’s on your mind”. :-P

Started reading exactly that and man it's mind-blowing. He's not anti-tech, he's anti big-company-culture-capture. Really insightful for being written in 1998. What I appreciate is he looks at a very wide view of tech, not just modern silicone.

Hi ha dies que em demano si no hauria d'escriure en català aquí, per tal que hi hagi més diversitat lingüística visible. Al cap i a la fi, avui en dia les traduccions són econòmiques. La traducció automàtica pot ajudar a preservar la diversitat lingüística del món.
There are days when I wonder if I shouldn't write in Catalan here, so that there is more visible linguistic diversity. After all, translations are cheap these days. Machine translation can help preserve the world's linguistic diversity.

آپ کے دیئے گئے #جملےnotesfollow کی درست اور معیاری #اردوnotesfollow اصلاح "کوئی #نذرانہnotesfollow لے کر آیا ہوں، میں دیوانہ تیرے لیے" ہے۔ اس جملے میں 'نجراجہ' کی جگہ درست لفظ نذرانہ (تحفہ) ہے، 'لیکر' کو الگ الگ لے کر لکھا جاتا ہے، اور 'لئے' کی درست املا لیے ہے۔ #Grammarnotesfollow #Urdunotesfollow #Languagenotesfollow #Learningnotesfollow
The correct and standard #Urdunotesfollow correction of your given #sentencenotesfollow is "I have brought a #giftnotesfollow, I am crazy for you". In this sentence, the correct word for 'najraja' is 'nazran' (gift), 'lekar' is written separately, and 'lay' is spelled correctly. #Grammarnotesfollow #Urdunotesfollow #Languagenotesfollow #Learningnotesfollow

I gotta confess, I vibe codet a Kirigami-based application and I liked it. I am a anti AI person, and cannot wait for the bubble to burst. Yet I see it can empower people that do not know a tech stack, and get good enough results out of it. However i also see, it makes you lazy (and frustrates as soon as it gets somewhat complicated). It seems it is being adopted everywhere. This is scary... if it becomes necessary, will you be able to find a job where they don't require you to use AI?

I lament the death of programming as an economically-viable craft, but am also leveraging the new tools to build things and to try to stay competitive. I think we have yet to find out how agentic coding will really make sense for companies once the costs stop being subsidized. But it's clearly not going anywhere.
