QT does it well but the license is a maze

would be nice to have cpu usage added so I have all in one?

currently I use btop which shows basic gpu load along with cpu, network, etc.

it's always the browser, each tab is at least 100MB, electronjs is also a browser. the gtk or whatever is nothing before the browser

I was a drupal user, then wordpress user, both are too complicated for my personal sites, so I used golang to build a cms with AI for my own use, easy and good enough to suit my needs. so yes, no more wordpress for me at all.

long term claude code user here, never used cursor, however based on my limited experience, it seems codex can code better than claude code.

a dumb question, is this better than qwen3.5 and I thus should switch over?

well we do need at least two powerful AI companies, so they can cross checkout each other when I use them.

that's not true in fact, major brand such as google and amazon do not, for reolink etc there are only a selected few models do rtsp/onvif as far as I know.

New comment by synergy20 in "Having Kids (2019)"

synergy20 — Fri, 20 Mar 2026 15:39:55 +0000

I have a few kids, raising them is a mix of good and bad, like everything else. it took a toll on my career, pushed my temper to the edge, and stressed me out all these 20+ years, but I also enjoyed many moments. it does not go away when they got older by the way, it's a life long strong bond, at different phases there are different challenges.

If I have a second life, I don't know what to do though, I probably will first make enough money before having kids at least.

when will this be ready and is this as open as ros2?

nice, problem is that, with hikivision and dahua got banned these days, the majority of ip cameras on the market do not do onvif or rtsp, or neither, what a shame.

don't feel that here, chatgpt still gave me better answers most of the time so I had to subscribe both, no clear winner yet.

New comment by synergy20 in "The Lobster Programming Language"

how did you get that 'no programming language' conclusion? there are so many well established languages that are more than we need already, the market has picked the winners too, and AI has well trained with them, these are facts. If there is a new language needed down the road for AI coders, most likely it will be created by using AI itself. for the moment, human created niche language is too late for the party, move on.

in my testing codex actually planned worse than claude but coded better once the plan is set, and faster. it is also excellent to cross check claude's work, always finding great weakness each time.

totally true. for me it's unless until those apple hardware can run linux first-class, till then it's irrelevant. sad to say this but macos sucks.

New comment by synergy20 in "Parallel coding agents with tmux and Markdown specs"

synergy20 — Tue, 03 Mar 2026 04:14:55 +0000

I use claude-code. claude-code now spins up many agents on its own, sometimes switch models to save costs, and can easily use 200+ tools concurrently, and use multiple skills at the same time when needed, its automation gets smarter and more parallel by the day, do we still need to outwit what's probably already done by claude-code? I still use tmux but no longer for multiple agents, but for me to poke around at will, I let the plan/code/review/whatever fully managed and parallelized by claude-code itself, it's massively impressive.

are you serious, hundreds of node_modules that I have no idea about, plus a runtime in the 100+ MBs alone.

the problem there might be limited training data?
