The efficiency of wasm is really impressive. An optimised build of Stockfish with POPCNT evaluates positions at ~1500kn/s on a single core of machine. By contrast, the wasm build on https://lichess.org/analysis/r4rk1/p5b1/2p2n2/1p2p3/4P2q/P1N1B3/1PP1B1Q1/2KR3n_w#0 can compute ~42kn/s in the browser for the same position!

Today I learnt about Solargraph, an LSP for Ruby which includes an impressive amount of type inference and type checking! https://solargraph.org/guides/type-checking Type signatures are parsed from doc comments, similar to JSDoc with TypeScript.

Sweep is a really impressive demo of LLMs with coding: given your source code and an issue, it will generate a PR! Example: https://github.com/edreisMD/plugnplai/issues/65 I'd want to have a really thorough test suite if I was accepting LLM PRs though.

The description prompt becames too big as you add too many plugins. A max of 3 seems to be a good limit, and its the same number as OpenAI allows on ChatGPT.

It's really impressive to see hibernation support on RISC-V land in Linux, when you can't even buy RISC-V laptops yet!
RISC-V With Linux 6.4 Adds Hibernation / Suspend-To-Disk Support - Phoronix
One of the missing RISC-V features now in place for the in-development Linux 6.4 kernel is system hibernation / suspend-to-disk support.
