Emil Malta 🇬🇱 @emilmalta.bsky.social · 20/10/2025It even comes with a model of Link’s Awakening, which no joke, was my favourite game growing up 🧚 🗡️ The cartridge has a mock battery inside, which I’m guessing refers to the fact that Zelda has a battery powered save file. Mario Land, the other cart in the set doesn’t have it! 030

Emil Malta 🇬🇱 @emilmalta.bsky.social · 06/10/2025That said, I do wish the intro wasn’t 5 minutes of personal YouTube drama. All this self centered bickering and infighting is the worst part of open source dev. 000
Emil Malta 🇬🇱 @emilmalta.bsky.social · 06/10/2025Cool to hear these thoughts, especially in the subscribe-to-everything hellscape we’re in today, where comfortable tools are behind pay walls, and open editors feel archaic, though they’re free. 100
Emil Malta 🇬🇱 @emilmalta.bsky.social · 06/10/2025I don’t do any audio work, but just spent an hour watching a really thoughtful and entertaining essay on remaking Audacity 🎧 Interesting to learn how open source tools are remade, especially all of the UX and HCD stuff. youtu.be/QYM3TWf_G38?...youtu.beHow We're Redesigning Audacity For The FutureYouTube video by Tantacrul 110

Reposted by Emil Malta 🇬🇱Timnit Gebru @timnitgebru.blacksky.app · 29/01/2025Friends, for something to be open source, we need to see 1. The data it was trained & evaluated on 2. The code 3. Model architecture 4. Model weights. DeepSeek only gives 3, 4. And I'll see the day that anyone gives us #1 without being forced to do so, because all of them are stealing data. 372883828

Emil Malta 🇬🇱 @emilmalta.bsky.social · 14/01/2025I think shinylive runs entirely on webassembly, and the implementation just is better on chrome and mobile safari 100
Emil Malta 🇬🇱 @emilmalta.bsky.social · 13/01/2025Actually, I find that it’s because I was using safari on macOS. Chrome must have much better wasm support, because the problems with my apps just disappear when using it. 120
Emil Malta 🇬🇱 @emilmalta.bsky.social · 13/01/2025Not yet, but I suspect they're there. One of my apps consistently breaks on a laptop, but works fine on a phone, and I don't know how to debug. 100
