I know there are 0 comments but actually I appreciate your post. I'm a developer on the Windows platform that uses C# and Typescript extensively, so you are definitely in tune with what I'm looking for. I'm also looking to learn Rust, just for the fun of it. Thumbs up.

What I particularly find interesting is the Eglot vs LSP-mode difference.


Thanks! Glad at least someone found it useful :)

I'm getting Gordon Gecko vibes.


The section under "User Lisp Directory" seems incomplete. I was expecting a second paragraph.


I thought the same, but later on in the article they go into more details and explain that lisp files under that directory will be auto loaded and commands they add should just work! Really good stuff.


   Central US data center failed to scale with it
I'm in Europe and I experienced token failures as well.


There are no EU instances of GitHub, it's all in the US only.


What's Google got to do with GrapheneOS?


LLMs have no sense of geography. They measure distances between parts of words, not distances between parts of world.


“Canada is north of the United States” has a higher probability of correctness than “Canada is east of Greenland.”


Thanks for the PSA. Uninstalled.


  2. Local models are not "ready yet". You still have to own decent hardware and it will not be the same level of frontier models. I am big fan of local first, offline and "unlimited usage" compared to paid solutions. But probably I have to wait few or several years to get to that point.
This is why tech companies are working hard to make sure you can never build your own computer again.


Thanks for this. I've been thinking about something like this as pertains to energy use. Which algorithm is the most energy efficient? I'm actually quite curious.


The current status? If you're considering doing anything serious with Unix, absolutely you should use Linux. No question. Don't waste your time with any BSDs.

But ... if you want to teleport back to the 90s and go back to an era before Linux took off on a rocket ship to universal dominance then the BSD are for you. You will find a much more curated experience when people thought that documentation mattered. It is the road less traveled.


Serious like a great file system that is ZFS?


And dozens of critical bugs because it's basically the X.org of filesystems, complete with horrible quality C and half of Solaris tacked to it in the form of a shim?


I don’t think this is the dick swinging contest you want to have with respect to Linux.


Clearly you don’t know what you’re talking about.

You should read up on it. ZFS is great.


> you should use Linux

Too bad the _fat_ penguin was not a lie. Linux has become a diabetic infected with cangrene wounds.

Trying to make the kernel smaller (by removing modules/features) results in non bootable system.

Can you expand on that?


Compared to Linux, all of them lag pretty badly in one or multiple areas (performance, features, hardware support, available software...).

They can be excellent in very, very niche use-cases. I run my personal site on openbsd, because I want to do minimal admin for what is a super-basic setup; but that's it.


I do my “serious” stuff with FreeBSD and my gaming on Linux.
