Not sure if you noticed, but the first CTA on the link you posted is a prompt to "Start a message", which then opens a multi-model capable chat interface.
I really don't understand why all the lazy complaints about how the 'purchase a hyprland premium subscription' page doesn't provide an exhaustive explanation of what Hyprland is are top of this comments section. The homepage, at https://hypr.land, does that pretty well.
As for the move by the hyprland maintainers to go down this freemiumesque route (which I assume is why this link was actually posted and is top of HN), all I'll say is that Niri[0] is absolutely fantastic, and I expect it's about to get even more popular.
You're suggesting that LED light bulbs need replacing every year, which hasn't been my experience (like, at all). I switched over to LED bulbs 10 or so years ago and haven't had to replace a single one yet.
I’ve got outdoor LED lights that fail constantly. So often that I keep dozens of them in storage to replace them as they die. Much less reliable than the incandescents they replaced. I’m fact, I have a string of about 50 sockets, about half are still incandescents that have survived for 10+ years, and the other half are LEDs that I have to keep replacing. Sadly, whenever an incandescent light goes, I have to replace it with the crappy LED version, so eventually it will be 100% crap.
Java Applets probably would've snuffed out WASM if it was added into a browser by default (instead of an extension).
However, they were pretty insecure and caused a ton of problems for the browser [1] and I'm guessing Oracle had no interest in providing free work in a secure solution. So they got eliminated.
The target of the JIT compiler is indeed JavaScript, since WasmGC is still too limited.
This is fundamentally an implementation detail though, when we adopt WasmGC there will be no user visible change beside a potential performance improvement
How do you deal with numbers? Javascript doesn't do 64-bit numbers and naively multiplying 32-bit numbers can loose lower bits. If I remember right GWT used two numbers to represent 64-bit and ignored the 32-bit issue.
My buddy is at GH working on an adjacent project & he hasn't stopped talking about this for the last few days. I think I've been reminded to 'make sure I tune into the keynote on Monday' at least 8 times now.
I gave up trying to watch the stream after the third authentication timeout, but if I'd known it was this I'd maybe have tried a fourth time.
These do not need to be mutually exclusive. Define the quality of the software in terms of customer experience and give developers ownership to improve those markers. You can think service level objectives.
In many cases, this means pushing for more stable deployments which requires other quality improvements.
My AR glasses (viture xr pro) have a focus distance of ~3m. I actually find them more relaxing to look at than my monitors or epaper displays, and that focus distance is what I attribute it to.
Ahh, I have fond memories of this. Their random KYC 're-verification' process (the lack of humans/computer says no) was _dystopian_ levels of frustrating. In the end I made a gif[0] and called them out publicly in the hope that they'd do something about it.
The service they offer is amazing when it works, but it'll be a long time before I use them for anything my business depends on.
It reminds me of how psychedelics can sometimes put you in a hyper observant, heightened state of awareness. Maybe some here have experienced this, it can be very mind blowing. People are open books and communicate much much more then we think we are. Motions, gestures, tiny subtle reactions, the way someone walks, it can give you a direct glance into someones soul.
Some people are probably naturally very skilled at being observant, the author being a painter only make sense.
