Ask HN: Code review of AI output, review what?
If AI is supposed to be doing a better job at coding, then what are humans reviewing in it? I don't understand why I need to spend extra time and effort just to read code that humans aren't supposed to write.I feel this is some sort of scam in the AI industry telling us to do code reviews.Either write the code yourself or just pass all the AI code.Please help me understand.

>The honest assessment: If the machine cannot run a lightweight Linux desktop at a usable speed after you have applied the optimizations in this guide, it is time to recycle it responsibly. Most municipalities have e-waste collection programs. Do not throw it in the trash. The components contain recyclable metals and toxic materials that need proper handling.
This is the whole point.Linux helps in that judgement whether to keep or throw the box.

I built this typing mastery application yesterday. It took just few hours.I wanted to have features that I wanted to use for improving the typing speed. It is usually the combinations of the best features that I like from various paid and free touch type tutoring applications.Right now the Linux binaries work well. For Windows you need to allow the binary to run. And Mac the binaries wont run...
Ask HN: What to learn and do, that makes me least affected by AI in STEM?
I could be wrong with what I say here. It's just the situation made me feel so.Looks like AI learnt almost everything there is in the internet and textbooks today. I lost hope of learning anything new out there to make a reasonable difference and impact. Choose any topic AI knows. Its interpretation is far better than what I can come up with by myself. I feel robbed of my intellectual freedom...

I am on the same page as yours on "Web Technologies". But fundamentally they are not obsolete.

Thank you. This is great feedback and validation of my thoughts. I appreciate you taking time to write this experience of yours, which is of great benefit for this project.
Ask HN: – Build Gaming Setup AIO: Steam – GoG – Epic Games – RetroArch – PPSSPP
Currently, we can legally play PC games using the Proton compatibility layer, retro games, and PlayStation games on Linux through emulators, provided we pre-own all of the games.I have customized (refactored packages of) Linux to directly boot into the games dashboard and start playing the games. Well, there are options to switch to emulators, the Steam app, etc.It also has the ability to...

The recent TV box I have has 8 GB of RAM and 64 GB of ROM. Will this still be insufficient to play games?
As a hardcore gamer, how many games would you install at a time? How much could the total size of those installed games be?

The rest of the folks from this new company are good at operations, supply chain...

Re:Running multiple Flutter applications on a single web page
on Saturday May 18, 2024 @08:03PM (#40403092)
It is a known fact that when a Flutter application is compiled for the web, we can run only one Flutter application at a time on a page. When we try to integrate multiple Flutter apps into a page, it throws an error due to a conflict in the _flutter object name space variables.
Running multiple Flutter apps on a single web page is an essential component of having a micro-frontend up and running in Flutter space too. Also, we can integrate multiple smaller Flutter apps into an existing project for greater composability.
Here I demonstrate how we can run multiple Flutter apps on a single page without any external libraries. This is purely on a research stage and not production ready.

Re:Ask HN: Design of Emacs type extensible editor based on electron?
on Sunday April 23, 2023 @11:05PM (#35683228)
Yes. I understand this could be only my requirement. I always wanted to use web in Vscode, copy the error messages from terminal to inbuilt browser, and copy code from web back to terminal or editor. I also wanted to listen music, watch tutorials either from local or from web. I also wanted to develop extension that support these requirements. But I felt limited extending Vscode.

Please hear me out: Do not consider this as some unrealistic ambitious project that I am going to pursue. This is purely a thought experiment and design discussion on the feasibility of the idea that bothers me.I use Emacs most of the time. I do consider it a great piece of software purely due to its extensible nature. I can go on about how Emacs is fabulous, but that is not the point here.I...
