What is the difference between an application and a program?

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 4 points 3 days ago

program tends to be the more general term while application tends to refer to a tool with a GUI

Each primitive has at least one Electron instance dedicated to it. The advanced version also has a locally hosted chatbot per primitive.

The only way to make AI less power efficient: require an instance of Electron for each GPU thread in the matrix multiplication. Suddenly there is not enough RAM on the planet and optimizing Chrome becomes the all-consuming desire of the world's wealthiest nations.

This already happens in enterprise code bases with dummies running the show and juniors coding. Every primitive is actually a god object that can work at any level of the software stack.

At least we still got float right... right?

An interesting way to misspell "subscription"

I mean, those words are still used by people in technical fields. It's the laypeople who use "app" for everything, and even if "app" didn't exist, they would still pick one generic word like "software" or "program" for everything since they don't know the difference between any of the words on the left side.
