Honestly your poor assessment is in all ways poorer than his poorly written creation.

Did you even have 2-3 minutes to click around his website and gave a read to his other article "Something that I used to love"?

Your type of disparaging comments give the impression of HN to others what HN totally isn't. I don't know if you wrote your comment esp. for engagement baiting.


Coding as we knew it ten years ago isn’t dead. I have had a great time in the last quarter doing a little voluntary open source programming. I improve or make something and the upstream accepts it. I have fun and it isn’t just an idle hobby that is useless to anyone but me.

So I don’t buy that they are mourning it. Give me a freaking break. Mourn your professional programming, maybe? But if this is your “passion”? Freaking keep doing it voluntarily. Is playing in a rock band dead?

Or no? Too busy being a “code prompter” at Google? Sellout.


I'm not attached to coding either. But if someone else is, and feels the way that is alien to me, I am not gonna be disregarding their feelings either.

Passion is a feeling, and feeling changes.


If I sub to SuperGrok, would I be able to use it in Pi agent or in Opencode? This is not clear to me if I can. Do I get an API Key in SuperGrok?


No, no api access for the Grok product. APIs are only via the xAI product.


What a great documentary! Loved the pace of the documentary and the mix of visuals. Thanks for sharing.


Could you explain how much improvement RL+fine tuning has given to Composer 2.0 over Kimi K2.5? I don't fully grasp the work Cursor model has done here and why it is difficult to achieve these results with RL.

Also would like to add that he has a YouTube channel as well https://youtube.com/@statquest



This is almost definitely the problem they're facing although I think that description is a little bit odd. It's missing the operative word: "portals". It's the XDG desktop portals service that is involved here. What you need to ensure is that you have a desktop portal provider set up that provides org.freedesktop.impl.portal.FileChooser. What's kind of neat about the way xdg-desktop-portals is architected, you can pick and choose different implementations for different services. This is especially useful outside of desktop environments where you might need to use e.g. the wlr provider for screenshots and screen capture, but you still want e.g. KDE file dialogs.

It's unfortunate that the documentation for XDG desktop portals (and generally, setting up a complete desktop setup when using compositors like labwc or Sway) is relatively poorly documented. I have my feelings about the pervasiveness of DBus services everywhere but overall I like desktop portals.


Apparently yes. I tried installing xdg-desktop-portal-gtk at first, but that didn't work. xdg-desktop-portal-kde did.

But now I get issues that are likely due to problems with downloading language server binaries and running them, as the parent comment indicated. When I open a Rust project it says "Language server rust-analyzer-2024-07-08 (id 1) status update: Failed to load workspaces."

Also, it dumps core every time I quit. :)


For the commenters here: do we have something like VimR [1] for OSes other than the Mac that provides a file explorer sidebar with smaller font size (probably sans)?

This assumption breaks if you use macOS. Windows uses (or used to use) Apply button in its settings. Macintosh OSes were reactive from the start. Which means that checkboxes have immediate-ness on Macs.
