I still daily drive a Oneplus 7T; for ~$350 in 2020, it's served me incredibly well, barely any performance drop over the years.

The battery has weakened ofc, the 2 day battery life has dropped to a measly 9 hours, but that's more than enough.

Remote: Yes

Willing to relocate: No

Technologies:

- Typescript (any web framework, any flavour. well versed with advanced typing, structuring and fixing enterprise scale monoliths. Expert in Svelte and Kit)

- 3D (3D modelling, WebGL (GLSL and TSL shaders, performance optimization and pipelines; think online 3D showcases, websites and general web based realtime rendering)

- DevOps & Deployment (Going from MVPs to globally distributed and highly available services tailor fit to your budget and complexity constraints. Automated maintenance, deployment and scaling)

- Languages (in order of proficiency): Typescript, C#, GLSL, OCaml, Haskell, C++, Python, Lua, Haxe.

I work mostly like a CTO on contract with heavy emphasis on understanding and building every step of an enterprise pipeline. I build highly maintainable solutions tailor fit to your budget, infrastructure and future investment. My goal is to solve your problem in a way that it manages itself without heavy future investment. With over 10 years of experience taking products from idea to market I understand exactly what goes into building a successful tech product. I have worked in multiple industries spanning pharmaceuticals, finance and deep tech. Current research includes building highly performant realtime rendering solutions for the web. Think global illumination at 60fps in the browser.

More like a horse carriage owner no? I don't think the horses used to have a merry time dragging around a huge carriage with multiple people in it.


Cars replaced horses. AI replaces humans.

The carriage owners in this metaphor are the capital class.


How many AI companies do you own?


I wrote an Unreal file parser in C# and use it in our in-house web based DAM. It was much more ergonomic and performant than writing it in Javascript.


God the UI design is atrocious.


All these inexperienced vibe coders build identical slop UI, but what's funny is they usually think its super unique and are super proud of it. I hate them all.


Who are you again?


A person that is expressing something a lot of real people are feeling. AI is churning out this terrible UI / graphic desing that looks the same, gives aways is just vibe coded slop and is VERY ugly.

Who are YOU?

I still use a 2019 MBP and I can't work on just the laptop screen. My laptop screen usually has one fullscreen window at all times; tmux, or a browser window; all the main work gets done on the big screen.


That sounds really interesting. Would love to know more about it.


Sure. So basically we took the non-creature cards in MTG and adapted them to chess. Instead of two decks, it was a communal deck, and you could forgo a turn to draw another card. Then we just adapted Enchantments/Sorceries/Instants to be more "chess-flavored".

One of the tricky parts we discovered in playtesting was that you can’t let a card’s effect trigger immediately. Instead, when a player plays a card, it goes into a sort of “escrow” state. They declare the card, everyone knows it’s coming, but it doesn’t take effect until the next round.

So the flow is: a player commits to playing a card this turn, and then on their next turn that card’s effect resolves.

Without this delay, instant effects made it too easy to pull off cheap wins for example, using a teleportation or transposition card to immediately force a checkmate with no chance for the opponent to react.


That's really cool, might implement it someday since the engine I wrote handles arbitrary card play and turn combinations. Let me know if you'd be interested in a playable version of this variant, would love to pick your brain.

My e-mail's on my profile!


Thank you! Because of the randomness with action cards, sometimes I just play entire games by myself while testing xd.


E-mail sending is in beta afaik, you need the Workers paid plan to use it.


thank you!! missed the public launch

so basically a vibe coded Tauri in zig? I don't like calling webview dependent applications "native desktop apps".

Native desktop apps means using the OS primitives and directives to draw the UI imo; WinForms, SwiftUI, and their ilk.


Maybe it's called zero native because that is how native it is.


That was my interpretation too (no idea if it's correct though)...


"Not native" doesn't roll off the tongue quite so easily (dot com is available for a few grand). Concept is solid, an ingenious name even.


Tiny nitpick: Windows Forms wraps the Windows API; the function call is `CreateWindowEx`[1].

If Tauri ever gets proper webgpu support, that'll be the Electron killer.


nothings going to kill electron. The value of packaging the chrome browser is you don't need to suddenly track down 4+ different webview rendering bugs, capabilities, etc.
