Always been interested in this stuff. Where would you recommend a software/math guy learn all this stuff? My end goal is to understand the tech well enough to at least have opinions on it. How wi…

So you're taking every single TODO commit and rebasing it on top of current? Why would we do that?

I find it quite funny that this is exactly the kind of the thing "just don't use ... 8+hours daily ... Never had issues ..." that people who remain with git say. And now people are say…

Oh it has its problems for sure. Especially the bloat. I was just bringing up the similarity in ease of packaging.

> We don't even write utilities in JVM languages, because spawning whole JVM is generally considered too expensive. This is definitely not why, at least today. People are even willing to spawn…

> Why on earth would this be the case? Do you hear yourself? Here’s the answer: no, obviously. I have no skin in the game. I just hypothesised as to why the timing might overlap with your new gover…

> Gutted NIH and research funding This is simply factually wrong. The twitter-engagement-bait driven nonsense like the OP in the tweet you linked is just so bad. I only got flagged about this when …

We need to reboot Bryan Cantrill's "Don't anthropomorphize the lawn mower" talk with a new edition titled "Don't anthropomorphize the internet document simulator"

Yeah i have lots. Try my solution might work for you also.

Here's how I think I make sure it doesn't truncate: shopt -s histappend shopt -s cmdhist export HISTCONTROL=ignoreboth export HISTFILESIZE=-1 export HISTFILE=~/.bash_eternal…

To be fair, even a massive LLM is not able to handle this properly https://chatgpt.com/share/67a8ef08-de44-800a-a0e2-b2523035ee... …

This is the exact reason for the jacked up prices in many things.

But how can one survive without a daily dose of Utterly Brain Damaged Abstractions?

Yeah I don't get the iterator thing either... Saw the implementation and I'm not sure what the usecase would be. They have essentially implement a single element iterator for Some and a zero…

Does it save much resources at all then? Id think that style computation and layouting takes a large chunk of the total resources used.

True. Wayland is the primary example.

5-7 years is new. My laptop is that old, and my computer is a year older, and my other computer is from 2012. Not planning to replace any of them anytime soon. The 2012 computer has had RAM upgrades o…

BREAKING: Chinese Remainder Theorem Will Now Be Called the American Remainder Theorem

Interestingly, backpropagation is the natural way I'd describe this process, not reverse graph traversal. Background difference I suppose. > This must be what AI hype actually is. Complete inc…

Good idea Although I suppose using an approach like mine precludes any notion of a serious application.

> vim > LLM I use both :) Vim has a way to run shell programs with your selection as standard input as you'd know, and it will replace the selection with stdout. So I type in my prompt e.g …

> Does JS provide static variables const f = (() => { let cnt = 0; return () => console.log("cnt", cnt); })(); :-)

There is a balance to be struck. You obviously don't expect a SWE to begin by identifying rare earth metal mining spots on his first day. Where the line is drawn is context dependent, drawing the…

You use it with a mouse... That is telling. Have you considered that people actually want to use the laptop all by itself? Without an external mouse? That's the experience you're supposed to…

What was misleading? It's a very reasonable prompt that contains all the information required to generate the rest of the answer. I didn't ask or expect any format. The accurate answer in wh…

Yeah, I don't think they are a useful measuring stick for LLMs. My amateur opinion is that an "AI system" resembling AGI or ASI or whatever the acronym of the day is, will be modular, w…
