It's ridiculous. We need more doctors.

Somewhere there's a Charlie Munger quote about how that's the best thing about being rich - you don't have to spend time with people you don't like.

And I'm just sitting here looking at the Codex desktop mac app wondering why a list, a chat window and textbox require a 579 MB download (compressed) and 4 GB of RAM.

Climate doomers: Climate change will kill us all by the end of the century!

dang and team, perhaps it makes sense to special-case .name domains in the domain hint, like you do for GitHub and Ex-Twitter.

Thanks!

Maybe if Martin could comment - his @google.com email still appears in the repo readme, I'm assuming he doesn't have access to that box anymore - was the repo move and ownership coordinated with Google prior to his leaving?

Wasn't it partially owned by Google? Or are they just a contributer now?

If I remember correctly, Mitchell Hashimoto uses it for Ghostty (probably under the git backend).

Then use that as the link.

Everything I can find online is referring to this one source. That doesn't tell me if it's happening or not.

"In full" is a tall order that no other OS or distro claims.

No reason Qt or quickshell is any different from any other software.

Bash is... harder, not impossible. I wouldn't rely on it.

New comment by underdeserver in "How I find problems to solve as a staff engineer"

This is not distinct.

Even in a big corp there are always problems to solve. The point is to find problems that both:

1) are hard enough that someone junior won't be able to solve them alone, and

2) actually provide value to the company / users

That is, as TFA mentions, the one good argument.

But in the article all these GUIs are vibe coded. Tell your AI to allow more than one window. What's the problem?

So you have a cluttered list of terminal tabs instead of a cluttered list of windows.

But with a worse UX?

They generally stay supported, or if not supported, working.

Yes, they can, because I don't think other forges are actually making money.

GitHub is the de facto standard.

Yep, and given that the original author posted it in 2020, should probably be marked (2020).
