Rope Optimizations, Part 1

[@mrshodz]

Great video. Please keep it up.

[@andrewmarek]

the quality of the video has been optimized!

[@mrpocock]

Thanks for that -- it was fun to see people writing real code for a change. Those kinds of bit twiddling optimizations can make a huge difference. Perhaps consider abstracting it a bit? Introduce a struct wrapper around the u128 and iterators and count ops on it, and call those abstractions, rather than copypasting the twiddles everywhere. It may be overkill, but you can bake the character class into the bit twiddling type as a const type parameter. Something like: struct ByteOffsetBitmask(u128) or similar. You can then unit test that abstraction to death, including all the edge cases, just the once.

Great.

[@dwliu4766]

this font looks pretty good. name pls.

That looks suspiciously like Berkeley Mono

[@lain-bf4kd]

Zed Mono, lol

[@sineptic]

​@@lain-bf4kd on my mobile phone it looks different that on desktop. I don't know why, but its not first time.

@@lain-bf4kd nah, it's definitely not Zed Mono here

[@soitchy6084]

I am fairly certain its Jetbrains Mono

[@yaroslavkhodos1626]

I liked the font, please tell me what font is used?

[@brankozivanovic3895]

Berkeley Mono

Thanks a lot 🙏 ​@@brankozivanovic3895

Why did you rip the name off from the query language Zed? Now have to wade through info your text editor to find what I really need. Couldn't you get that super smart AI of yours to find an original name at least?

[@nonefvnfvnjnjnjevjenjvonej3384]

Sorry guys, stopped using Zed after Windsurf started offering Claude 3.5 Sonnet for free. That too unlimited. At least for now. I wanted to ask since your editor is leaning towards AI how will you compete against this unless you also provide at least some basic free AI which is unlimited.

[@CharleyWright-w1y]

Curious, what skill level would you say you have (beginner, intermediate, very experienced etc)?

[@nonefvnfvnjnjnjevjenjvonej3384]

@@CharleyWright-w1y very experienced.. if i was a beginner.. i would not step near ai at all.

[@jaymr2795]

@@nonefvnfvnjnjnjevjenjvonej3384 sure sure

[@lain-bf4kd]

Zed does provide Sonnet 3.5, it's not 'unlimited' but you will never hit the rate-limit unless you are doing something you shouldn't be

[@theherk]

I suspect they will compete by having an excellent editor that doesn’t rely on electron. And they do provide that model.

Rust is woke!
