I Built a 10 MB GPU-Accelerated Terminal in Rust + Metal

A few days ago, I released Metalterm , a new native terminal emulator for macOS built with Rust and Metal . https://metalterm.dev/ Yes, another terminal emulator. But I wanted to see how far I could push a terminal if I treated rendering performance, latency, memory usage, and smoothness as first-class features rather than implementation details. The result is a native macOS app that's currently around 10 MB , uses a custom Metal renderer, and spends roughly 0.22 ms of GPU ti...

Feature-based: por que sua pasta components virou uma bagunça?

Acho que todo dev já passou pelo momento de se deparar com um projeto e se perder no meio de tantos arquivos. Isso pode ser resultado de N fatores, e um deles pode ser a forma como o projeto está organizado. Falando especificamente de frontend, quando criamos um projeto do zero em qualquer framework, ele vai lhe entregar uma estrutura padrão, chamada de Type-based em que você consegue desenvolver coisas simples, nada muito complexo ou escalável.

Ask HN: Should we stop "correcting" AI writing so it improves English for us?

For example, AI writing often puts an "or" at the list of items because that is more logical in some contexts. Changing it to "and" would make it sound more natural, but it would be less logical.
