I haven't checked in detail, but I would suppose SteamOS isn't far off from running on general-purpose PCs. Else, I've heard a lot of good things about Bazzite.
Why do you have to install Windows? You could put bazzite or any other distro of your choosing on this machine and have a similar experience to the official Steam Machine.
>> "Best Frontier" includes GPT-5 and Sonnet 4.5, which both outperform Composer.
Looking at the graph, it would appear there's an implicit "today" in that statement, as they do appear poised to equal or surpass Sonnet 4.5 on that same benchmark in the near future.
What Cursor is really emphasizing here is speed — they’re claiming it runs about four times faster than GPT-5/Sonnet, while still offering roughly the same level of performance.
It entirely depends on the type of application you are building. Boring CRUD app that is rarely updated? Yea, server rendering is probably enough.
But the requirements of "modern" software are always changing. Sure, the static table might be enough, but then some business person says, "It sure would be nice if I could check a little box in the table row or assign this user here..." and now you're adding little JS hacks. Again, not impossible, but at a certain scale, the ability to have infinite access to client driven reactivity becomes a real business empowerment.
Given the interest in the JS working group to add reactive Signals to the core language, I suspect this will only become _more_ prevalent in the future. Maybe it will need less input from frameworks to do the same work and we can move back towards using built-in browser APIs, but the programming model itself works really well (so much so that SwiftUI uses a very similar reactive UI programming model).
Again, I don't disagree with your point, just at a certain scale, it becomes a huge hassle to maintain. If people are going to use these tools and frameworks anyway, it helps the entire web to make them more efficient.
Hmm but that table would be actually what I would write in React most likely. Considering most tables want pagination, filtering and so on it would be dumb to use query-string params and reload the page. So this would actually fit perfectly.
I have this set-up where .NET ViewHelper would do `RenderReactComponent('complexTableComponent', '.complex-table-component')` and it would load bundled react as 1st script and then this component as second script. If page does not need no react components it does not load any. If you have more than one it will still load the react itself only once. It is really amazingly working very, very well.
And yes, if I would to build some kind of dashboard/email client or something I would say use React or Angular and API. But for regular website rendered HTML is king.
Kind of frustrating to watch indeed. Have similar complaints for GUI apps on the desktop, really feels we went backwards from building great GUIs in 10 minutes using WYSIWYG to never really seeing the GUI until it compiles a bunch of XML and you somehow hope it will match what is needed.
Productivity is now wasted trying to make sure that buttons work when pressed or scratching the heads why box is not aligned with another programatically.
You mean many developers want. Actual customers, the ones who pay for your work don't even know what Next.js is and are extremely happy with whatever works. The hard part is to sell the idea that - no, next.js is not the best for your SEO heavy website :)
I try but continue to be enable of developing complex code in javascript.
It is so different when compared to Java/.NET where organizing large code blocks and making sure the pieces work well together is so easy. Very frustrating as there is so much that can be done on a browser but hampered by a development environment not much different from only using a text editor.
I should have added “sometimes”. It worked fine that way with most games (I have the same CPU), but Cyberpunk 2099 in particular really doesn’t like that configuration.
Do not underestimate enterprise customers who buy Cursor for all their employees. Cursor will become legacy tech soon, yes. But it will be slow death, not a crash.
This is literally all you need to back up Spotify.
