saw another project based on pre-rust bun and this is another one
never use bun and sometimes this make me wonder, are we enter a phase the supply way > requirement or people just build stuffs and not care serious usage anymore?
As a software engineer these days, I can't say i do not use Agent to help work done, but i am really a bit of tired to see so much solutions while not talk about what problem they are trying to really solve
Linux can really unlock old hardware well, and glad it work great on 32bit systems
Recently retired my pc with fx6300 because it take too much desktop space; and just setup a mini pc with j6412, also installed arch Linux, i3wm for desktop stuffs
Also find a old usb Bluetooth receiver make it play some music
It works great and use this new setup to get a Agent free experience
recently I bought my 8 years old a cheap new cassette player as a birthday gift which I want to get when I was child
Turned out he really love it and I also bought more cassetee as requested from him, and the cost of those cassetee seem surpass the player itself
What I find the child seems feel more real if the music play from some gears instead of digital ones, and he know well how to use and find a track in the middle
I also want to buy a new cd player which is also I want when I was youth...
Maybe people are just tired of the streaming and I also find that there seems to be a surge of new album and music in youtube music now, the album's cover seems being generated by AI, and maybe also the music itself is generated by AI
Recently I am seriously thinking the time when agent do the work and I was waiting for it's output, I got a bit lost given it really can do a lot but it make me feel some crisis as a human, even it still can provide me a sort of Joy because some task I long want to do but no time to start can be finally take shape, but the Joy is actually not comparable with the Joy when I read the code and hack with it
Concretely, I am letting agent to write some serious part of code to rust and I will consider only let Agent to handle the UI and integration stuffs, and I will take the rust part and rust is a language that I want to learn and be professional given I was do lots of C coding
> Back to Zig, Zig has a really polarizing specific stance on what it does from technology, to community management and funding to PR, blog posts and how they talk. I don’t agree with all of it but I so respect that they are unapologetically weird. So I continue to support them financially and use their technology because I support people trying to be their own person.
I read the full articles and always like what Mitchell trying to express, the above is an example
Bpi does a nice job on open source hardware and openwrt integration, but only 2 ports in this model is really good?
Just update my bpi-r3 purchased years ago from 24.x to 25.12, it need a bit of extra work because the sfp interface is renamed(though I never used that), and i finally just do plain sysupgrade only and add some required packages because i run a customized fd.io vpp build on the bpi-r3, connected via vhost-net backed tuntap, it works well, I never regret bought this machine, with current agent stuffs, i think bpi r3 model may be more fun to play with
This remind me of collegue life while enjoying on some Linux forums, good old days
I always feel lost in social media those days, especially when X got bought by Elon Musk and premium users start to generate CONTENT(*) to get traffic and revenue
Forums is just for some hobbist and it have didived content by channels(I almost forget what's the name) and have some highlight posts upvoted by users, that's really good stuffs
How we get to this state I do not know, but a clear signal is that my classmate those days works on a startup that build app for forums by using some forum's API or customized solution, but seems mobile App goes fast and they lost the track, so perhaps forum get lost with emerge of Apps and user just stick to Apps and social media is also sort of Apps people get sticked(Addicted) to
Will people really need a bunch of different agents?
Even using two codex session for different project make me feel a bit overwhelmed, or may be i just old
As previously C system programmer, I barely use IDE, cli agent for coding and desktop codex for various non coding tasks.
Nowadays settled to codex/gpt5.5 and it does really good job
I do not have the luck to get access to computer in my childhood.
But the articles still make me feel nostalgia, especially the sound.
With limited resource, people at that times just create some good stuffs.
