That's almost the mainstream position in physics as of 2025 -- that cosmic inflation never stopped, that it produces universes beyond number, and we're in one pinched-off region of it.

My shower is theory is that there are infinite universes getting created all the time and we can never know about it because we're restricted in this universe. I love having these talks with my daughter.

Congratulations on the launch!

Have you considered any sort of templating like htm or JSX? Because it's a bit harder to read and I believe to work in a team it would be much simpler if there was a template syntax.

The executive order came with threats against any country doing that

This is just beautiful artistry. I absolutely love it! Only thing missing is the click/clack sounds on those buttons

I have a naive question here.

Could this have been avoided if they had used Rust? Or is this a bug that can happen even in Rust code too?

Think Steve Jobs once said something to the effect of Microsoft having no taste. I think I’d agree. Inconsistent design language, inconsistent values, inconsistent vision.

Yet they've had astounding success and is the most widely used operating system. Maybe usability and ease of access are far more important than beautiful design
vijaybritto commented on Crabtime: Zig’s Comptime in Rust   crates.io/crates/crabtime... · Posted by u/klaussilveira

I always on purpose avoid macros and comptime as much as possible because they usually make code much harder to reason about and to debug. Also, often macros are hard to refactor.

Would you agree with my idea, or would you say I am missing something? Does Zig aleviate some of the problems I mentioned?

Now that I'm older I agree with you, but I would have been furious hearing this ten years ago :)

I'm thinking of building a long term living app (say an app that I will use the next 30 years).

It has to be a web app so I was thinking of going pure JS. With that requirements in mind would you recommend ember.js?

vijaybritto · 5 months ago
Go for web components. It's guaranteed to last 30 years

Hmm, for Firefox on Android, the videos animate once and then stop, still-framed forever. Ditto in desktop mode. Weird.

Time to go over to a real computer I guess.
