Re:Apple Silicon costs more than OpenRouter on Sunday May 17, 2026 @04:26PM (#48172907)
And this all assumes OpenRouter costs and availability will persist.
will this mean opencode is finally portable?

Re:Writing Lisp Is AI Resistant and I'm Sad on Sunday April 05, 2026 @01:54PM (#47652020)
I've been vibing a full r7rs scheme on ChezScheme and a proper language MCP and LSP go a long ways. Especially around keeping parenthesis balanced at all time. Give the LLM instructions to vote for features on the MCP and then you help reduce its friction points.

They suck in all your data. Then charge you minibar prices to access it.

Re:Why I Chose Common Lisp on Sunday January 12, 2025 @03:43PM (#42676754)
Great choice. Fully static binaries are a win.
Re:Why I Chose Common Lisp on Sunday January 12, 2025 @03:42PM (#42676740)
Gerbil scheme gives you the tiny bins and fully static binaries. No need to cargo cult portions of quicklisp with the binaries.

VMS++ == WNT
I blame @otterly for bringing in the ex yahoo people who locked devs out environments. Causing them to add backdoors for debugging.
Re:The Little Typer (2018) on Saturday September 28, 2024 @05:24PM (#41683103)
Gerbil scheme works great with the Schemer series of books.
fta: "Originally the plan was to also have OpenBSD 7.5 in the mix but that BSD operating system was having issues on the system under test. OpenBSD 7.5 booted fine from USB for installation but when it came to post-installation use when booting the installed system the display wouldn't work nor was there any network connectivity and thus no ability to SSH into the system. So something was going awry with the current OpenBSD release on this high-end workstation system while at least FreeBSD, DragonFlyBSD, and NetBSD all worked fine with their latest releases."

It's also the back side of the Facebook Thumbs up sign.
Re:OpenBSD Desktop on Friday May 10, 2024 @12:20PM (#40320754)
Security was the only concern.
Re:OpenBSD Desktop on Friday May 10, 2024 @11:36AM (#40320222)
We use it for our nfs servers. Very secure, but the file cache is still nerfed.
Re:IBM nearing a buyout deal for HashiCorp, source says on Tuesday April 23, 2024 @02:35PM (#40135490)
IBM is like a juicer that takes out all the delicious flavor out of a fruit. Leaving nothing but a dried beetle husk.
Re:IBM nearing a buyout deal for HashiCorp, source says on Tuesday April 23, 2024 @02:33PM (#40135468)
It won't.
Re:Roku data breach: Over 15k accounts affected on Monday March 11, 2024 @07:30PM (#39674396)
It sure would be nice to know what was exposed in the hack. Given they are an advertisement company.
