ALSA is the way to do Audio on Linux, it’s how the Kernel exposes audio hardware to userspace.; Everything else sits on top because ALSA is barebones and exists to expose hardware to user space, not manage application audio. ALSA will always be available, but you lose a lot of the niceties like audio routing, session management and so on.

Soundcards were cool in the 90s but now every profesional audio equipment is USB, if you really care about audio quality you'd get rid of the sound card and get a good quality USB audio interface instead.

>>
>>107689402
Personally, I don't like the categorization of "C/C++ replacement". Modern C++ is enormously complex and, when used idiomatically, looks very different from C. That's why I see Rust and Zig as filling different niches. Rust is a C++ replacement, an already very complex language with extra features being added each version. Zig is a C replacement, a simpler language focused on manual control.
I like many things about Rust, like the trait syntax and sum types, but I'm not completely sold on the borrow checker. But the real reason I avoid the language is social. The community is full of deranged ideological shill types. I don't mean flooding formerly technical forums with leftist politics and getting people who object canceled, though they do that too. I mean that they are very ideological about Rust, which makes it very hard to get a reasonable assessment of the language's weaknesses.
>>
>>107694894
What if you use Zig for the low level metal stuff and Rust for what’s above that?

try debian, it is the best simply because it's a distribution that doesn't try to babysit you like fedora, but is very independent (very minded distro) and stable, meaning you don't need to babysit it as you do with arch. besides the big repos and its lts nature, deb gives you space and peace of mind to learn (about everything) at your own pace, and be comfortable while doing so.

be carefull tho, if you dont align to its proposals it can be a pain, you need to know some workarounds to get new software and for emulation/games, there are videos around teaching them. try it out on live and use the netinstall if youre going to install.

Not a huge problem desu. It's just hard to recommend Ubuntu when Linux Mint is similar in many ways but doesn't pull this kind of shit. It's not about Ubuntu being super terrible, it's about there being a better alternative.
>>
>>107694581
Not that anon, but in my experience installing stuff from backports works fine. It's running a frankendebian, not backports, that requires more experience and willingness to debug.

It is a smaller, more focused model. It is not what people of /aicg/ expect when paying for/"borrowing" Opus.
Its ability to code better or give more concise and accurate one-shot replies is worthless here.
After trying different presets with it and churning out hundreds of outputs, I am not seeing enough improvement to make it worth upgrading from something like Sonnet and the posted comparisons make it seem like the previous Opus is still superior (albeit obviously more expensive).
4.5 also has a few odd quirks that Anons pointed out and, personally, I find it that it's quality degrades very quickly as the context increases (like, under 20k even).

On the other hand, it's no secret that the providers need to charge more for their services to actually start making money, while also finding ways to make people actually want to pay more, so you can see how such a crackpot theory may seem plausible.

Did we ever get a pricedrop before that wasn't also a drop in quality? Because I remember similar sentiments when the first "fast" Opus premiered and some people swore they'd prefer to use the old one as long as it stays online.

>The development comes a little over a year after the tech giant [Google] disclosed that its transition to Rust led to a decline in memory safety vulnerabilities from 223 in 2019 to less than 50 in 2024.

>The company pointed out that Rust code requires fewer revisions, necessitating about 20% fewer revisions than their C++ counterparts, and has contributed to a decreased rollback rate, thereby improving overall development throughput.

>We adopted Rust for its security and are seeing a 1000x reduction in memory safety vulnerability density compared to Android's C and C++ code. But the biggest surprise was Rust's impact on software delivery," Google's Jeff Vander Stoep said. "With Rust changes having a 4x lower rollback rate and spending 25% less time in code review, the safer path is now also the faster one

>With roughly 5 million lines of Rust in the Android platform and one potential memory safety vulnerability found (and fixed pre-release), our estimated vulnerability density for Rust is 0.2 vuln per 1 million lines (MLOC).

>Our historical data for C and C++ shows a density of closer to 1,000 memory safety vulnerabilities per MLOC. Our Rust code is currently tracking at a density orders of magnitude lower: a more than 1000x reduction.
