Wow this was moved fast off the frontpage! Now on page 3 after 50min. Just FYI.

I was wondering. Usually if something drops a couple of pages suddenly it’s because of the flamewar trigger: the number of comments exceeding the number of upvotes is a proxy measure for something not designed to elucidate meaningful discussion. Here, it dropped when it got to ~90 upvotes to 15 comments, so it wasn’t that trigger. Maybe as it’s a UK-specific story the concentrated geographical voting pattern triggered a voting-ring trigger?

TBF, if an evil SPECTRE-level corporation with global tentacles and Tolkien-inspired omniscience can't manage to quash some bad PR on Hacker News, none of its prospective customers would take it seriously.

Yeah, I caught it on the refresh! Makes one wonder what the impetus was for the change...

And this comment is being downvoted as well to hide the fact.

Relevant paper on lattice types (BloomL): https://dsf.berkeley.edu/papers/UCB-lattice-tr.pdf

In addition to this, you’ll need a causal register (per-key merkle clock) to order concurrent edits, rather than drop one.

Lastly, you’re likely to need a Pijul style VCS to handle semantic merges.

The ST got preemptive multitasking in 92 AFAIK with MINT/Multitos https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari_TOS

Thought this was a reference to this parody

Hilarious, the software industry is a parody of itself. Sadly I understood most of the jargon, a sign that I'm in way too deep. Time to step away from the madness of crowds, and return to monkey. Press <button> to restart.

Completely different. The ST and TT used bitplanes whereas the Jag is chunky, and can support both YUV and RGB colourspaces. 640x200 is possible at least https://youtu.be/XI3Pvx5Yh1U?si=2bp93CeNYPTGZZic

640x200 pixels ought to be enough for anyone.

OOI why did you go with RC at the lattice bottom rather than generational refs? Not sure how in touch you are with the author of Vale?

What would be good is if effects are used to discharge the ownership obligations, that should dovetail well in Ante. BTW I appreciate the clear effects handling in Ante, very nice!

FYI - this article is written by the author of Vale

Yes that’s pretty much how I’ve used AI, though phase zero and one had to be hand-coded until there was enough code for the AI to iterate off. Hand debugging and then showing the AI helps to narrow the number of errors, and how to triage for the next run.

Depends what you define as a cyberdeck. If you look low power/ non-linux there are many innovative decks: https://hackaday.com/2023/03/06/low-power-challenge-the-pota...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kn0MxHlima0 discrete deck built like the tandy 1000

If Cyberdeck builds get people building, then it's all good. Farming does encourage others to build so it's all heading in the right direction :)

You might be interested in the Baochip

Probably the most open chip on the market, and sits between a pi and a pico

Funnily enough named after ‘dabao’ or takeaout in Chinese

Not quite the same thing, but you can build a similar thing to run linux relatively easily, and the keyboards can be really good that way. You can swap out the SBC for one of your choice eg. https://www.lattepanda.com/lattepanda-iota (why don't AMD do small SBCs?) and cut a space on the left/right hand side for a trackpoint/optical trackpad (operate from the side)
