How will this work exactly? Will they be allowed to have others trade on their behalf?

Iโ€™ve been a Firefox user forever and itโ€™s the best! I would be really sad if it were donezo :(

Is there a vaccine I can take that will give me autism? I donโ€™t want to pay taxes.

Between Black Mirror, Last of Us, Handmaids & wheel of time, I feel pretty rich with TV watching content right now ๐Ÿ˜

How is it different?

How is it? Iโ€™ve always had positive experiences with jetbrains products.

This!! Theyโ€™re all working around the limitations ๐Ÿ’ฏ%

I think they named it Cursor because after your vibe code generated slop gets written, you start cursing your entire way through trying to fix the issues it created

13.04.2025 14:16 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 5    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 0    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Hopefully the copilot folks come up with a better workflow than Cursor. They seem to be concerned with the programmer DX, which is great!

the developer doesnโ€™t get to understand why those decisions were made. There are pros and cons to this, but Iโ€™d rather manually walk through the problem with copilot than have the LLM make decisions for me that I regret. 2/2

The writing/editing of code was never the roadblock for efficiency when writing code. Itโ€™s always been about how fast you can problem solve. Instead of truly understanding the options available for the problem youโ€™re trying to solve, Cursor chooses for you and 1/2

Wait, footprint of which setup? Blazor app inside of a browser tab? Blazor web assembly?

11.04.2025 23:25 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

What is the foot print like? Loads of memory? 1GB? ๐Ÿ˜…

11.04.2025 23:23 โ€” ๐Ÿ‘ 1    ๐Ÿ” 0    ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1    ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

Interesting. You can just put a web view in it and load up a Blazor app right?

Yeah I do prefer flutter over React !

I have. Iโ€™m trying to remember why I was hesitant with it. Iโ€™ll take another look

Yeah I hate react native. React in general makes me mad lol

Iโ€™m having the toughest time picking a desktop framework to use for a trading app I want to build.

I want it to be cross platform (mobile, web too), performant, and have access to great graphing libs.

The best ones Iโ€™ve found are on .NET, but Iโ€™m looking at rust too. Anyone have recommendations?

If you were ever wondering what stock market manipulation looks like, look at what just happened with Trumpโ€™s recent pause on tariff announcement and look at the price of the stock market before and after.

Well the market just flew upwards because Trump just announced a 90 day pause on tariffs for all countries besides China. This might end up being a man made โ€œv shape recoveryโ€. I wonder how many of his billionaire buddies knew he was going to do this.

Anyway with these AI coding experiments Iโ€™ve been doing, itโ€™s good to know my skepticism isnโ€™t simply just being old and cranky for the sake of being old and cranky: my instincts (that theyโ€™re being oversold by people who have incentives to do so) is still correct

Your work looks really cool! Iโ€™ve always fantasized about making a video game but I never had the artistic talent

Theyโ€™re not that different, but I do like what OpenAI decided to instead of using websockets, which was server sent events. Under the hood, SSE does work similar to websockets, but disabling writes keeps your REST api relevant and you reserve real time data for incoming events.
