Nice. I built something basically just like this for work for the same reason last year. It only look a few hours though, cause I just used Acorn [0] to parse my JS, then directly evaluated the AST. It also had an iteration limit and other configurable limits so I can eval stuff in the browser without crashing the tab. I did not use an LLM.
Haha nice! It's a good library, and it's flexible enough that you can extend the syntax of JS however you like (with some difficulty, as it's not exactly documented). I experimented with adding my own type system to JS by using Acorn. Can recommend.
I think most popular languages were started as an experiment in some feature, or to solve a specific problem someone had. Those are good reasons to make a language. I see no reason to make a language just to take attention away from other existing languages. Instead, make a language so you can understand how to make languages. It is 100% doable by one person. It's fun and educational.
Agreed. It's nice to be able to just use the provided terminal when running KDE. It's very customisable and runs plenty fast. I also love being able to right click on Dolphin and tell it to open Konsole in the current folder. Also, I leave infinite scroll back turned on in Konsole and it works really well, swapping out to a file as it gets too much scroll back. Nothing worse than getting errors that I can't read because the terminal discarded them. I have Ctrl+Shift+X bound to clear everything, which I use before running just about any operation.
I've been thinking about this for a minute, and I think if an American were to say "why", and take only the most open vowel sound from that word and put it between "k" and "m", you get a pretty decent Australian pronunciation. I am an Australian so I could be entirely wrong about how one pronounces "why".
This is basically asking for a response that's just the original comment but with "KDE" and "Gnome" switched. I personally find KDE to look very nice and bring a much better and less clunky user experience than Gnome, so it's completely subjective I suppose. I congratulate the KDE contributors on continuing to make a great product even with people saying it sucks all the time.
People typing faster can make a huge difference at work: I get asked for help a lot, and when I ask someone to do something on their computer and they do it painfully slowly, that can represent a lot more time that I spend helping them rather than thinking about my own tasks. I thought this perspective was missing from the discussion, so now I've added it.
