Does it have to be better for there to be a reason to exist? Far manager and MC are each primarily targeting different operating systems. Yes there are MC port for windows, and Far manager port for Linux, but there is certain amount polish, platform specific integration and edge case handling that's hard to achieve when creating crossplatform tool targeting the common funcitionality of all platforms. Targeting a specific platform and it's api allows including functionality that's unlikely to be found in generic cross platform tools even if basic feature list is similar.

Some examples of functionality that's unlikely to be included in MC (some if it might be from plugins, but my point remains):
* native context menu -> even though Far is made mostly around terminal based UI, i remember the native file explorer context menu being available. Can be sometimes useful for quickly accessing to tools that integrate with file explorer, but not surprisingly doesn't have direct Far integration or plugin.
* Conemu (terminal emulator) integration - less important now that Windows has a better first party terminal emulator. Provided tab integration and few other minor quality of life improvements.
* I remember there also being stuff like plugins for image preview which where only possible to targeting one specific platform and going outside the bounds of plain terminal API

Far manager also has a rich ecosystem of plugins. From what I know MC has no plugin system at all.

As pointed out in some other comments not all shortcuts work in terminal based Far manager Linux port and that full exprience requires wxwidgets backend.

None of this individually is something that would appear in high level feature list, or lack of which would be a deal breaker. But it contributes to overall feel of polish and efficiency which is quite important for a productivity tool like this. This is similar to why macOS users often prefer utilities natively targeting macOS. And if you don't care about little things, might as well use the default file explorer + terminal.

I used Far quite a bit when I was working as a Windows developer. For the last few years I have been on Linux both for work and at home, but I never got into habit of using MC. Hard to explain why it didn't felt right, maybe it was just muscle memory and laziness to relearn it. Maybe the different set of tools available on Windows and Linux steers me into using the operating system differently.
Ask Norway.
I feel very tired of the whole LLM discussion now. It's going to put everyone out of work or it's going to be a helpful tool. I find it currently lacking somehow but what's the point of saying that to one of the enthusiasts? I feel that no matter how much value it has, there will never be more hype about it than at the beginning.

Not really. You just need to have a couple of kids.
You're not really talking about Python/Go/Rust developers, but about your preference for Python as a technology.

Also, Python is super slow comparatively and is only fast if it delegates to other languages.
My point was that physical violence is a severe punishment and not cleaning up after yourself does not seem like it warrants such a severe punishment.

I don't think that forever escalating punishment is an effective strategy. If your child won't listen to you after punishment one step below physical violence, going further probably isn't going to help. Continually escalating the situation to enforce something feels like a very one dimensional approach.

It seems like you agree with me, given that in your article your said "even better, though, is avoiding commands and threats entirely".

Sidenote: I really hate "when I require you to do something you have to do it" as a reason. Always hated it as a kid, still hate it as an adult. I hope I only use it very sparingly when I have children.
Yes, Google probably does, which really demonstrates how bad these CAPTCHAs really are for anyone who's privacy-sensitive enough to disable chat history.

Alan Kay isn't going to agree that you should simply pass structures around and use element-level procedures. Message passing as a concept is a higher order version of what you see in C++, not what you see in C. A big reason Kay dislikes C++ is because it doesn't go far enough in terms of dynamic dispatch and the ability to substitute implementations dynamically at runtime. One way to put it is: C++ makes decisions at compile time that should be made at runtime.

What you are saying certainly applies neatly to getters and setters, but consider that classes are used for far more complex use cases than as a simple data holder. Indeed, if all you need is to store two integer components, you might not need a class.

Of course, in Smalltalk and it's ilk, you only have objects. So there is no opportunity to access data from within a structure (externally) without passing messages.
You are of course fully free to pay any travel for your fellow human being, or help then in any other way, if you think that's the case.

How slightly? Do you have a number? Because in certain places lowering the standard may very well people losing access to healthcare and education.

I am afraid that "but inequality!" is today used as an ideological rallying cry used to inflame spirits and create hate against a class of population. It's an old communist tactic, quite effective during the beginning of the Cold War but less now as people have seen the failed societies with their best and brightest massacred under this cry.
That’s true, which is annoying when all you might want is simple CSR. For that use-case, I have found that Vite works very well these days. It is exceedingly lightweight and fast also. Check it out!
Yes. If you run x86 Linux in a VM on an M1 you are emulating/translating every single instruction; with a native OS you are only translating the application.

Cool project, I might have to check it out.

I recently tried to use ngrok as a daemon to my local server but it constantly kept closing the connection, and it seems to be a common issue.
In addition to the other suggestions, you might want to check-out distrobox:
https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox

It provides support for starting host commands within a container, and also exporting commands from containers to the host.
Then there are options that are probably better for you. I've been doing colocation for many years, but I've never seen the inside of the datacenter.

Remote hands set up the hardware for me and replace failed hardware. The service is so rarely needed that it's basically free.

In recent years I've started to rent the hardware I want as I want more frequent changes. I tell my host what hardware I want and they'll acquire it and install it.

If you're running very old hardware that you can't even buy replacement drives for then you are doing something very wrong.

Need to scale fast? Then I don't have to wait for servers to arrive, I use their cloud offering that's in the same network.

I agree that it's a solved problem, but the solution to anything somewhat permanent is not the cloud. It's not really any harder to run your own hardware.
Why would you want currying? It is one of least useful/most dumb features of old-skool applicative languages. It is often combined with a really dumb "no parentheses" attitude to arguments. If you really need something akin to currying (which you rarely do), why not use a closure as a wrapper?

I agree, with the caveat that given a heavy duty, large, and well-understood and -designed C++ API, the tradeoff of using a tool-generated wrapper might be worth it, even if such a wrapper may be more obtuse than one specifically considered by a human developer.

Fair. I'm not "planning any sanctions against Germany" for now, despite Hetzner.
Some points:

(1) I disagree that AI is not inherently evil. Well, I don't exactly think that it is evil since that is a loaded word but I believe it has almost no capability for good and its effects for the most part, will be destructive. Hence, it is pretty much evil.

(2) Fully automatic weapons aren't really "evil" either if you use your "technology" as a tool argument. Yet, it's almost impossible to get one in most countries because they are dangerous. Ditto for: many extremely dangerous poisons, atomic weapons, anthrax (it's just an organism, so it's not evil right?), etc.

(3) Even IF outlawing won't work, it doesn't follow that we SHOULDN'T try and stop it. We can stop it in other ways, like starting large coalitions of businesses and individuals who refuse to use AI. There are many ways of stopping a technology besides outlawing it.

(4) Outlawing it isn't guaranteed NOT to work. Of course, it is unlikely to work, but in the rare cases where outlawing it is a possibility, there is no harm in lobbying for it.

Edit:

You said in your edit: "This is like watching the world change in front of you in the scale of a world war only no one’s getting killed. Can’t ask for a more fun ride for humanity really."

I think a good time for humanity is enjoying nature and being at peace with life. Watching AI I think is sick and disgusting.
But hey, they're super environmentally conscious at least by adding a few recycled cans to the new laptop you'll end up buying after the repair isn't worth it.
Thought experiment:

Could we make a text chat where all (encrypted) message data is public knowledge in a globally shared bitcoin-like ledger?

There are ~3 billion users on the worlds biggest messenger app, sending ~100 billion messages per day. Assume a message averages 15 words. State of the art compression achieves ~0.65 bytes per word [1]. Thats 1 TB of data per day, for all human conversation.

Imagine any phone can send out an encrypted message, and it gets added to the global ledger.

The data stream of all ledger entries could be broadcast to all phones worldwide (LTE networks support broadcast), and your phone just pick out the messages aimed at it.

End result: Even if every device in the network is evil, nobody can ever determine who you are communicating with.

I feel like if we treated kids a little bit more like adults, things would be much better. These reactions are pretty reasonable relatively speaking, kids are just not quite as adept at navigating reality as adults are. With a little help they can be pretty good though.
Yes. You wouldn’t replace the OS but you can make UTM full screen and hardly notice it’s not the main os

There are attempts to run Linux on the Mac natively but they have limitations.

You can also get utilities that abuse Mac OS to make it imitate windows or Linux if you want.
Even if AGI cannot arise from neural networks, it is irrelevant. What is relevant is that AI as it is (even if stupid as a rock) can still cause significant damage due to its current and likely future capabilities.
Sure, and I agree. But also, CNET has gotten more attention because of this stunt than anything else in the last decade because people WON'T STOP TALKING ABOUT IT. So while this technique probably won't help anyone else the same way, for CNET specifically I bet this has absolutely increased their Google traffic.

Child benefits come with the rather high expense of looking after kids.

Also, while Germany has excellent child benefits, they not that high.

The Great (Strategic) Silence – A Novel Solution to the Fermi Paradox
> the form [of their science] is perfect.

The reason the British Houses of Parliament feature so many exterior and interior chimneys was to funnel so-called 'bad air' of the Thames away from the people who work inside the building. This was based on the newly acquired knowledge that some diseases are passed on via microbes. They wrongly assumed that most malicious microbes were airborne and that bad smells were an indication of their presence.

The history of science is littered with such examples of 'good science/wrong conclusion'. We would be foolish to assume that this is not as true today as 100 years ago.
I understand it well enough to know that creativity requires intention. So-called AI has no intelligence, and is thus incapable of intention.

I was recombining shit with Genetic Algorithms 25 years ago. I didn’t call it creative. I called it what it was…a stochastic algorithm.

Can you absolutely adore what it produces? Sure! But call your friendly random number generator if you want to know how you got here.
Teams, like most current day “apps” is essena browser app in a web browser that pretends to be an app.

No wonder it doesn’t get any faster.

A great line I read about the Fermi Paradox the other day:

Solved in 1933, proposed in 1950. That's the paradox.

The irony is that an obscure Russian text, completely unverifiably but allegedly from the Archives of the Tsiolkovsky State Museum of the History of Cosmonautics, Kaluga, Russia, and transcribed and referenced just once online, is cited on Wikipedia as having proposed the same idea in 1933! The same year the Italian UFO was recovered from Milano area. CR-A-ZY! It's like you can never get a clear win in this m**f**ing topic!

Yes, but C is simple (and standard) enough that higher level runtimes have more or less universally managed to construct decent FFI mechanisms to access it.

> well-understood and -designed C++ API

Unfortunately these seem to be quite rare (Dear ImGui is such a well-designed C++ API, and I actually also use the code-generated cimgui bindings more frequently now in my projects (haven't tried the 'new' official bindings yet). Interestingly the Dear ImGui C++ API is much closer to a typical "flat" C API than a typical class-based C++ API (Dear ImGui is mostly just a flat soup of functions wrapped in a namespace and with some mild overloading).

What happens when conservatives discover that Jesus was a liberal subversive?

It won't happen. They have been successfully pre-conditioned (aka brainwashed) to reject any such premise --- despite what the Bible says.

Ignorance of religion (willful and otherwise) and it's doctrine and scripture has become an almost innate part of the modern Christian experience which has veered decidedly political and militant. Ignorance is at the center of this crisis of subversion.

The fact that the overwhelming majority don't already understand the fundamental nature of Jesus' teachings is the proof. Those who do understand are declining to commune with the rest.

How Final Fantasy VII's monster scripting system works
I've produced a video showing how AI scripting works in the PlayStation classic, Final Fantasy VII.

Rather that being run from machine code, creatures are controlled by an embedded bytecode scripting language that acts like a simplified stack-based assembler language, executing on a basic runtime environment.

This video includes a short tutorial on writing a basic script, and extrapolates to some hypotheses on how the scripts were actually authored in a higher-level language.
