> nobody ever makes grammar errors related to gender

For most words, yes. Some loanwords are tricky to gender because of their declension. For example gender of "coffee" in russian is highly disputed: https://www.reddit.com/r/russian/comments/h08q29/the_insiste...

In (European) Portuguese some people (I've seen this more in older people) use feminine for hamburgers (like in Spanish, afaik), but most people use masculine. I guess it would make sense to be feminine because it's a sandwich, and sandwich is feminine.

In Russian it's quite common too. Car can be feminine (машина), masculine (авто/автомобиль), and neuter (транспортное средство).

And different car brands usually have their own gender too: for example Mercedes is usually masculine even though named after founder's daughter, and Honda is isually feminine.

As a Brazilian Portuguese speaker, today I learnt that "sanduíche" is feminine in Portugal. I had no idea!

LSP is not that bad. They tried to decouple IDE features from language features.

Resolving file paths is not trivial because it's language specific.

Syncing source changes on the LSP server side is necessary to keep packet side small and patching is trivial (span, new text).

(I made an LSP-powered text editor and implemented LSP client from scratch)

I'm not using proprietary git hosting again.

Forgejo/gitea are just so damn CVE ridden, and GitLab asks for 16G RAM as a minimum. All Rust-written forges have terrible web UI.

Just a bunch of controversial ideas: structured programming, null, intellisense, microservices, cloud first, serverless, OOP, "Clean Code", exceptions, SaaS.

Same! I decided to reinstall Windows and MBR to GPT conversion (surprisingly!) wiped the whole disk. 10 years of family photos gone. Good thing we had all important ones printed.

WGPU/Vulkan don't work with PTX shaders by default, additional translation would be needed.

On a side note, Vulkan has extension to launch CUDA kernels: https://docs.vulkan.org/refpages/latest/refpages/source/VK_N...

Might be one of the only use cases where LLMs are necessary to succeed. Can't imagine the pain of reverse engineering a technology of this scale and "secrecy".

Traditional hardware RE centers around heroics by a small number of very smart people, see: marcan, Alyssa Rosenzweig, Asahi Lina, etc. What they did is insanely impressive, and given how hard it was with LLMs I'm sure I would not personally be able to do this work without LLMs. That said, I'm looking forward to a world where the staring at hexdumps and traces can be delegated to LLMs and talented humans can spend their time building as opposed to head banging.

Yeah I think it's a shame how much time and effort gets put into understanding things simply because other people want to keep them proprietary.

Asking out of genuine curiosity... Do you think the Asahi maintainers could use your work to speed up future GPU driver development? M4, M5, M6 and so on... I am assuming they wouldn't just accept your work outright, but instead could they use it to substantially speed up their development process by mapping out a lot of the GPU after which they can focus on optimization and other aspect of drivers? Do you think they will?

I don't use Asahi now but that's largely because my current Apple M series hardware is still supported. I see a day where an older unsupported Mac is running in a rack in my basement or being used by my kids as a general purpose computer.

I see Zig news quite often here. The rest - not so much.
