Why not just, pretend it doesn’t exist?

Also most Ubisoft games in the last 10 years overall

You have to do some extraordinary mental gymnastics to expect paying for all soldiers in the roman empire is comparable to paying for all soldiers in the US.

Even calculating based on the silver content when sestertius is 2.5g silver gives 90M grams of 90 metric tons. Each gram is valued around $1 so that’s a 90M USD there.

Originally queen could only move one square diagonally and the bishop (elephant) move exactly 2 spaces diagonally with a jump.

I’m up for installing Linux on my last phone when it’s added to the list of devices that have official/unofficial support. I’m not going to install anything until WiFi and mobile data is supported tbh.

I tried installing Ubuntu touch for fun a couple of years ago but it didn’t boot. I just want to get to a point where I can install the OS and send bug reports.

LineageOS is based on android so it gets a lot of goodies with it.

I’m very open to being an early adopter of mobile Linux phones. I’ve been unable to because of a couple of factors. I last seriously checked about half a year ago so take this with a pinch of salt.

• Limited support for specific models. This means that the phone will work as a computer but won’t have the correct drivers for gyro, sim and whatnot.
• Lack of extensive driver support. Phones turn off components to save power, this was not supported the last time I checked and halves the battery life compared to stock android.
• Waydroid support incomplete. Many apps will work but some apps will bug out. Waydroid also has performance issues so it’s not as good as WINE for example.
• Not big enough community. A lot of models are maintained by a single dev that checks in every blue moon.

To get a Linux phone to be competitive on performance we’ll need to get driver APIs and component lists open sourced so it’ll be easier to gather the appropriate info and make drivers.

There has been tons of progress though, Gnome and KDE have really strong touch support now and the apps scale decently.

It’s coming but now fairphone is the only phone that openly supports Linux mobile distros and is open sourced.

Important note: This release can only be upgraded to if you’re on 10.7 or later. Make sure to update to 10.10 soon or the process might become more manual.

I use terminal commands to open relevant ide for the project

Having a bunch of plugins built-in means also supported in updates and play nice with each other

I also had issue when I was working on a pycharm project back when I was on windows. During setup it asked me “What’s your name?” and my name has a cheeky accent which Windows was decided should be the name of my Home folder. Home folder also has appdata and whatnon so which the build system didn’t expect to have a an accent in the folder path.

I ended up having to create a different folder and link to it then move all the path configurations to that folder link just so I could get imports working.

I use Jetbrains IDEs now for 5 years, I’ve used VSCode, Sublime, Atom, Vim, Neovim but I feel like Jetbrains IDEs are just better if you have the RAM to run it.

1. It’s a setting.
2. Doesn’t happen
3. Doesn’t happen
4. Searchable actions, just search for “encoding” in this case.
5. That’s an LSP/project mismatch usually just a setting. Most things are supported but worst case you can remove the error.
6. Happens if you run out of RAM or open a very large file.

So it’s not all bad, but comes with a lot of good such as “invert if statement”, “use template strings” and “extract method” thingies along with a load of plugins.

It’s a common practice but not required. Python behaves like JS where it just runs whatever you wrote. If you don’t want it to run when importing the file you can put the main() inside the if so it only runs when you run the actual file.

You can use it when developing a function or a class to run a simple test without running the whole program.

Bash combines quick, dirty and fast in exchange for readable. Bash is also nice for terminal functions like opening a set of programs and whatever

That’s all because Wine is not an emulator

Don’t get me wrong, I still write more than 98% of code by hand and of course, I can write those functions myself in 30m myself but I can get it in 60s with the AI. LLMs can write code to that does parse - > model - > map - > format with only one or two easy to fix bugs.

It’s in the very niche cases where it’s just tedious to write something out that LLMs actually work. “Write an API client that uses [library] that handles these requests/responses” comes also to mind as something that would work.

I’m using now also to learn react native where I get bugs I’m very unfamiliar with and SO doesn’t give me a good answer.

I’ve also had decent success at having it review my code with “how would I further optimise this code” and it gives me some pointers and then writes buggy code but the approach is correct usually and I can implement it myself.

These AIs really suck at writing correct code but I’ve had good success in having them write code generators. I recently made it write a script that takes a SQL create table statement and converts in to TS and gives insert update, delete and whatnot and also creates a simple class that handles the operations.

I had to write the original code by hand but having it write code that writes boilerplate which I correct is pretty good.

Other code is hit or miss IMO
