The auto fill feature in Emacs is an ancient feature from a time when text software was unable to format paragraphs by itself. Now, we live in a world where software can format paragraphs automatically. This feature automatically adds line breaks if a line is too long.
Lately, I…

I made the soundtrack in Bitwig, as a source of inspiration I used Udio. <https://www.udio.com/songs/gZCGMGHp5YXz89…

I created this drone to help with humming exercises.
Research has found that humming has therapeutic qualities, particularly in alleviating long COVID symptoms. [[1]](https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/conditions-and-diseases/coronavirus/coron…

This article is pretty good for beginners on prompt engineering, and some pieces I did not know before.

Astrophysicists say the age of the universe is 13.7 billion years, but do we agree on what is the duration of a year? 365, 365.25, or 365.24219?

About 3 weeks ago, Physics Girl made an 11-hour live stream to raise awareness about long-COVID:

I tried to watch the stream multiple times, as I’m interested due to my own long-COVID situation, but I only managed t…

If you are currently implementing or about to implement logging functionality, most likely you are thinking of doing it with a format string, and most likely the compiler would not be able to catch if the format string is not aligned with the parameters, and if the parameters are…

Yesterday, I had some dried Thai chili in my meal; it tasted delightful, and I had some thoughts: “probably will regret it later.” But I discarded that thought and continued to enjoy the meal. Today, I’m paying the price for yesterday’s enjoyment. 😄
Warnings in C++ are errors. Treat them as such, because they can lead to unexpected behavior or crashes. The code below gives you only a warning, and by the C++ standard, it is undefined behavior for 32-bit integers.
int n = 1e10; // undefined behavior for 32-bit int
I have a call of void situation quite often or intrusive thoughts, then I am watching the progress bar for 2 hours and at 99% I want to press the cancel button really really badly. Never did it, but oh boy!
LLaMA 3.1 is very bad at code completion, not sure exactly why, most likely I broke something, I’ll debug it later.
Yesterday, I spent some time upgrading from LLaMA 3.0 to LLaMA 3.1. I also updated the inference engine, llama.cpp, which was 3 months behind.
So far, the 8B parameters model is way faster and smarter. The 70B model barely fits in my GPU memory and is very slow. I don’t think it…
So far, Llama 3.1 is pretty good. It has some hiccups. It feels like it’s a bit worse on coding tasks, but it’s hard to judge after a couple of hours of using it.
I found stylized assets pretty much useless, if you are making a stylized game, most likely stylized assets' style would not match with your game’s style. I think if you aim to sell your assets, it is better to make realistic assets.
My laptop screen fell off because it was apparently just glued with double-sided tape; I just put it back and everything works fine. If that happened with my Apple laptop, it would go to the trash or cost me a fortune to fix. Honestly, I prefer the first scenario, where I just sl…
I am wondering why client developers' style of programming is so different from server (backend) style. I am looking at the client code, and it is C++; however, it feels alien and wrong. Global variables, nested if statements, awkward interfaces, singletons everywhere, and multip…
Udio just released v1.5, one huge thing they improved is audio quality. I have mixed feelings of excitement and feeling behind all the technological advancements.
I was wondering how many times I should say something or message something until people would, with a 95% chance, get it and not be annoying? The information was in the JIRA ticket, and I explicitly mentioned it, and still people missed it. What is the sweet spot - five times?
Normally, I just keep the tab open and at some moment I get back to it, but with YouTube videos, it is annoying that it just starts autoplaying as soon as I open the tab, so I add the video to the watch later playlist and get back to it in 2 months, then I completely forgot why I…
I think it’s okay quality for voice acting to use Voice Changer Client and RVC models. Anyway, currently I don’t have a budget to hire voice actors.
I just cannot keep up with everything that is happening in the world: Donald Trump assassination attempt, Biden drops from the race, CrowdStrike issue, secret service director steps down, and more and more and more…
Shell I write a DAW from scratch instead of making games? LOL
Did you know you can use ChatGPT 4o without a subscription? I just canceled mine.
My whole life, I’ve been told that if you believe in something, it will become true. However, my life experience tells me that no matter how much you believe, if it’s false, it will remain false. If someone gives you a shiny yellow piece of metal and tells you it’s gold, but it’s…
I am considering starting to brand my games under “One Electron Universe studio”. I bought two domain names: 1eu-games.com and 1eu.games. I think they are awesome domain names.
