I'm thinking that code becomes good with time (massaging into shape, refactor,...), and I think my own code is awful and needs massaging to be acceptable. So LLM-generated code can be a valid starting point for me.

I'm really OK for vibe coding being a range of things. Even if I look at LLM generated code to not have totally garbage output, or try to organize it a bit, I think it makes sense to call that vibe coding because in that mood I'm not super picky.

C'est comme ça. J'ai appris le C++ en partie en lisant le PBRT book, au lieu d'étudier en periode d'examen.

J'ai tellement appris pendant les examens, juste pas ce qu'il fallait.

Je sais pas si tu le sais mais c'est "censés", avec c

There are some notes about that here: obra.studio/a-guide-to-d...

It's difficult to review one's own code, but if it was LLM-generated, I think the "original author" has to make their own thorough review, before passing it on to the reviewer.

En Belgique, à partir de l'année prochaine les factures b2b doivent passer via peppol. C'est informatique, c'est obligatoire... Ça semble bien mais techniquement, pour avoir travaillé avec, c'est pas très agréable, et pour les non-informaticiens, ça va juste être une contrainte en plus.

A discussion about using async to spawn and reliably monitor processes (maybe using System.Process) would be interesting.

I assume there's a joke I didn't get but... Rust is a programing language; Arch Linux is a Linux distribution.

GitHub - noteed/syntactical: Haskell library for distfix expression parsing Haskell library for distfix expression parsing. Contribute to noteed/syntactical development by creating an account on GitHub.

I think it's possible to have a syntax completely described in terms of distfix expressions: github.com/noteed/synta.... This is enough to have a "nice" syntax for those that don't like parenthesis, and easily equivalent to s-expressions so we can focus on semantics.

I was looking at terraform-nixos yesterday and found out that nixos-anywhere has a terraform module.

On a scale from one to tan, he's certainly baked.

In 1966, the great computer scientist Peter Landin decided that the good part of computer programming was the expressions, and the bad part was the statements.

I haven't used it myself but there is also Guix.

Depending on what you need, you might want to have a look at NixOS. Describing complete systems declaratively is really nice.

Metaverse?

as you may have seen on Twitter, I'm researching the Deus Ex: Human Revolution engine. I started around 2014 but the first progress I showed publicly was these two screenshots of DXHR maps loaded into blender in 2020
