48:20 he did, and he did. He managed to make the system unbootable even though the system was warning him repeatedly that what he was doing was a terrible idea.

A little late to the show... a quick tip about ollama: the models it uses are quantized (they reduce their precision to make them smaller - it's an optimization thing). That 40G Llama3 70b model is quantized to 4bit per parameter. The original in FP16 format is about 130G in size. Same goes for the 8b version. Quantized to 4 bits is about 4G in size, while the original is 15G. Ollama also provides different quantization levels (see the tags for each model on their website).

Man.. CentOS going EOL. That takes me back to my early days starting off with RHEL3 and then CentOS4.2. Heck, I loved it so much, it became my daily driver.

The vast majority of develops use Macs, especially in web dev, so they're developing for their largest platform first. No one is pretending anything; in fact, the least used platform when it comes to dev work is Windows when you take into account all ecosystems. But it's not just web development either. For example, the Go Developer Survey put macOS just behind Linux as the platform they use. The Zed team is also building a lot of things from the ground up (i.e. text rendering, GPU acceleration) because they're using Rust (GUI applications in Rust don't have that mature of an ecosystem) and thus it's actually a lot harder to create a cross-platform application out of the gate. With all of that said, Zed has actually made an astronomical amount of progress towards a Linux client since open sourcing it - must faster than I expected at least.

I like your off-channel videos because you're more "unhinged"

[joseoncrack]

"The speed of thought". For most of us, that's not very fast.
The whole premise of these things is a fallacy: most developers are actually capable of writing code faster than they "think", which is precisely the problem with software quality. It's not the coding part that hinders us, but the thinking part.

Tried to watch your Arch Linux gaming video but it and several others are set to private. Is there a way I can watch it?

[seol-.-]

I have used helix for 3month and i think it is solid text editor but not yet fully ready

[EliasX]

one question, could you show one time your mic setup and audio interface you are using which works on linux, because it sounds so nice how did you made that sound so good ?

[ahmedthebest]

Why you give yourself all of this trouble,
you can simply install vs code with the vim plugin it will emulate vim key bindings
with a much easier code editor to work with

[ditchcomfort]

It’s because Linux and Windows SUCKS! Period!
