It reminds me a bit of the new STM32s (STM32MP2) which are actually 64 bit, but they kept the name STM32 because everyone knows it

In their defence, there is a fairly nice website too, not sure why it needs to have its own logo though

I guess because 99% of generated code will likely need significant edits, so you'd never want to commit direct "AI contributions" - you don't commit every time you take something from StackOverflow, likewise I wonder if people might start adding credit comments to LLMs?

Fun how the archive.today article near the top has this exact issue

OP here: I had the same thought, but noticed a very similar trend in both [0]; I think this graph is more interesting because you'd expect the number of new users to be growing [1], but this seems to have very little effect on deleted questions or even answers

[0]: https://data.stackexchange.com/stackoverflow/query/1927371#g...

[1]: https://data.stackexchange.com/stackoverflow/query/1927375#g...

The second graph here ([1]) is especially interesting because the total montly number of new users seems completely unrelated to number of posts, until you filter for a rep > 1 which has a close to identical trend

It's great for a prototype which doesn't need to store a huge amount of data, you can run it on the same VM as a node server behind Cloudflare and get a fairly reliable setup going

I really like this reactive guide style interface, which maybe could be quite a good project idea like mdBook[1] but also you to insert quizzes/examples alongside static notes

I had the same thought - I guess it's similar to that idea that if you had someone else's eyes, you might not perceive specific colours to be the same?

But actually it sort of makes sense since (from what I understand) is stimulating an external interface (the receptors), so you're mimicing what the effect a smell would have on you rather than the electrical signal created by the response to a stimulus?

Out of interest, do you have any specific examples of this?

I've tried Neovim, but still use VSCode because everything either works out of the box or takes 2 clicks to install an extension for and things like drag and drop into the file explorer or the remote extension make it really quick to use.

The only other real GUI contender I've seen is Jetbrains's IDEs (the free educational plan is great) but having seperate IDEs for different languages gets a bit annoying if you have multi language projects (e.g. a Rust backend hosting a Typescript frontend)

Not completely related, but do you know if hardware kickstarters typically have any IP protection? I'm surprised there haven't been any cases of large companies creating patents for ideas from kickstarter at least that I've seen
