europe has had a free ride at the rest of the world's expense, whether through security provided by the us, resources stolen from africa, or cheap energy from russia, when others don't give europeans what they want, they complain, and that's about it, replacing starlink? good luck

I did, the sd.cpp take too much time on my laptop to generate image, the issue is known and it did not seem like it gonna be resolved, so I build my own, and that's why https://github.com/netdur/qwen-image-cplus

I started my antigravity ide and I do not see gemini 4 there, does it mean google need government approval?

no worry, name is intentional, it's C + packages, language itself is tiny, strictly bounded by the C ABI, and doesn't include most of the features you'd expect in a language, even standard library is just a external package, so it's not a subset of C++ at all

I am guilty in a sense, I started a new programming language called C+ and one of the pillars I set was that it should not be an alternative to C (or any other language), in fact it uses Clang as its compiler, most of the points in the article still hold, but I hope it doesn’t stop people from coming up with new ideas and actually implementing them in this field, you don't have to be next big thing to be awesome

netdur — Tue, 04 Aug 2026 09:59:01 +0000

unlike many of the commenters, I found this pretty nice and educational, there are full stack developers who cannot write anything outside React and do not even understand why React was created in the first place

The only problem I had with Qwen, fine tuning on Colab, it takes 31 t/s while Gemma 4 is around 9 t/s, otherwise, one of best local LLM

netdur — Mon, 13 Jul 2026 09:26:26 +0000

very narrow vision, openai and anthropic realized what they have probably won’t lead to agi so they moved the goalposts to replacing jobs, programming just happened to be the easiest field because engineers are technical, willing to pay, and the input/output is relatively easy to measure, even that has problems though, a lot of managers are noticing that code generation is fast but actual production output doesn’t improve at the same rate, anthropic basically bootstrapped itself on coding and now they’re looking for higher paying fields that put less pressure on their servers

Zig and Rust solve different problems, Bun got burned by its indiscipline, and Zig’s response was sadly to flood HN with “how to use Zig” articles
