Silly question, but do you reckon it'll function decently in a Kotlin multiplatform codebase? There's swift native code, but I'm not sure how it would perform with some logic being shared.
Not silly at all. For Compose Multiplatform, Axiom won't do much for code review or generation. It might be useful for operations on the built app: console capture, crash symbolication, simulator UI/accessibility driving, CPU profiling, plus the whole shipping layer (signing, privacy manifests, submission).
Yikes! I've been needing an upgrade, and I was on the fence between a specc'd out MBP, or building out a AI server and delegating tasks to it over Netbird/Tailscale to my homelab.
I'm mainly interested in coding/image creation tasks. Has anyone built out a server for a similar use-case and, if so, whats your experience been? What cards should I be looking into? Am I looking at spending ~10-15k for something that can give me near frontier quality/speed? I know about the DGX Spark/Mac Mini's, but I'd like to be able to upgrade later down the road.
It seems like a conceptionally simple problem to grade a repo given the vast number of metrics available. Especially considering the advanced code analysis tools available today. I want a top-level analysis of some sort, based on: usage by other software (if applicable,) activity, issue frequency and resolution, derivatives (forks, etc.,) number of participants, code maturity, code testing, release frequency, license structure and many other parameters.
There is an opportunity here for a third party to do this well.
Because anti-Semitism is used to derail any conversation about Israel. If you criticize Israel, you're accused of being an anti-Semite, and actual anti-Semites flood the conversation with actual anti-Semitism that immediately shuts everything down.
> In other words, it’s opinion and not fact, which is something I do not want conflated in a technical post.
As you’ve already stated, it’s an opinion and not a fact. I wouldn’t take posts like this so personally. Instead, use content like this to help you explore new tools. If you like it, great! If not, move on. Simple as that.
If you’re new here, people can be very passionate about their tools.
> people can be very passionate about their tools.
I’m aware. It’s not a coincidence that I started my examples with Vim and Emacs, the classic flamewar. There’s nothing wrong with being passionate for something, that’s not the argument. My point is that just because you like something you don’t have to be against an alternative. Nix and Homebrew, Vim and Emacs, these are parallel tools which can coexist, not rivals in a reality show.

There’s nothing to take personally, and I do explore tools which interest me.
I feel like you haven’t read or understood my point at all. You’re ostensibly disagreeing while making the same point. I’m advocating precisely for the unwarranted negativity to stop. If you want to talk about why you love something, do, there’s no need to send subtle jabs at something else other people are working on and sharing for free. That’s incredibly demotivating for developers and leads to burnout, for nothing.
It has. I was just having this conversation with a friend the other day. Despite Netflix having all their analytics/viewership data, they consistently crank out garbage. You might get one or two releases a year that are good, but that's it. I know its subjective, but the few shows that I enjoyed were cancelled or just shelved.
They weren’t perfect, but I want normal Hollywood studios to come back. There was a lot more on the line when it came to creating movies/series and a lot more effort went into creating them. It took actual talent to make something great, not data.
The same is happening in the music industry. I know pop music has more or less sounded the same throughout time...but these days its almost indistinguishable. Studios just pick a public figure to sing a generated song, it goes viral for a few months, rinse repeat. I have a hard time telling the difference between artists these days. Their vocal range/tone is almost identical in some cases.
We have an over abundance of choice when it comes to media and I'm not sure if that's a good thing. Its now a chore to sort through the garbage and find actual talent.
I've come to despise all streaming services and hope they all burn down. We've gone full circle in terms of price and convenience. Hell, even Prime now wants to you pay extra to not see ads! Wasn't that one of the benefits over cable in the beginning?
I've gone back to buying physical media and just put everything on my Plex server. The perpetual 'rental' model is a failing one and is not consumer friendly.
I think I'll be taking a step back from React/Next.js for the foreseeable future. I feel fortunate in that, for most of my projects, I can make architectural decisions such as this. Things took a turn with hooks (I have a feeling that's the general consensus, too). The nail in the coffin (at least for me) was React Server Components.
I gotta admit that its been liberating working outside the javascript/react realm. Using Go + HTMX + [insert tool here] has been a fairly easy transition. Is it a 1:1 replacement? No. Does it solve most of my use cases whilst providing a better developer experience? Absolutely.
I'm not trying to hate on React here. I just think its time to stop and ask ourselves "is this REALLY the best idea/tool for xyz?".
