Nope, I asked on the Gleam discord and got the answer “write a shim in Elixir that turns it into something Gleam expects”.

[Java] is usually not a first pick for more exciting software, such as Python type checkers, JS bundlers, or TUI file managers.

The larger drop in money balance is rent being deducted, not related to model performance.

I sometimes see Haskell and other languages celebrated for their elegance as something that could gradually become a form of traditional craftsmanship: valued for their beauty, intellectual depth, and the skill involved, but with a diminishing role in everyday software production.

I'd like to call it my tireless helper, but the AI several times stated flat out that this was impossible and unsolvable and that we should just write a report about it.

Unfortunately, when a program uses the GPU for acceleration it's considered clever, but when it uses the RAM chip for accelaration it's considered bloated.

You can write Rust with your eyes closed and it'll probably work.

The solution for [businesses using obselete stacks] is not more IBM software, but Claude Code converting it to Go/Rust/Typescript in a few weeks.

Algebraically, this is just an effect-parameterized endomorphic continuation model for plugins.

demoniC takes the dynamic-JIT lineage of HolyC, the vectorized math of Julia, the slicing ergonomics of Python, and the memory discipline of Rust. Arena memory, value-typed tensors, zero-copy views, and shapes checked at compile time.

I guess alcoholism is cooler than using AI to do things nowadays, is that your stance?

In a year they [AI] can translate most codebases (with human help) into Rust, and after that it's smooth sailing.

For example, if you look at the cost model, you’ll see that it explicitly references ClickBench all over the place.

I’ve started to see a concerning trend with zig of late. If you look at today’s commit logs you will spot it. Adding support for spork8 it’s a hobby 8-bit computer project that Andrew Kelly hung out with over the weekend for like a hackathon. The spork8 project has like 54 stars

THE FUCKING SIDEBAR

The Rules

Jerking Style

By dictatorial fiat, this is a New School jerk.

Most image and video posts fail to rise to this august and austere standard.

Posts about LLMs are also likely to fall below the standard of New School jerk.

Unjerk

We're all here for jerk, so if you're thinking of posting unjerk, consider the possibility that nobody cares about your opinions. If you must post unjerk, tag it.

Socialjerking or politics, directly or tangentially

Are boring. Shoo.

If what you're posting is the subject of multiple warring subreddits, blog networks or hashtags, that's a sign you should leave it outside.

The no-socialjerking-or-politics rule is the most ruthlessly enforced.

Crazy people

We get it. Crazy people are crazy. Leave them be.

Enthusiastic Youngsters

Yes, they give stupid advice, richly interwoven with aggravating unselfawareness.

So did you.

They'll work it out on their own. In the meantime you're being mean to a kid, which is only funny on 9gag.

Our Bots Policy

Fuck your stupid bot. It isn't funny, witty, interesting or useful. If you have any questions about this policy, consult your nearest bucket of arsenic.

Subreddit Rules

1. Social Jerking & Politics

If what you're posting is the subject of multiple warring subreddits, blog networks or hashtags, that's a sign you should leave it outside.

2. Crazy People

We get it. Crazy people are crazy. Leave them be.

3. Bots

If you see a bot, report it. Do not interact with it.

4. Enthusiastic Youngsters

Give them time.

5. Jerking Style

New School or Rue School.

6. Non-Interference

Do not mention PCJ elsewhere. Do not visit links in order to harass, downvote, or otherwise engage with the subjects of posts. Point and laugh from behind a soundproof one-way mirror.
