I hold a general license in the US. I started 2m and 70cm with a cheap Baofeng but eventually CW caught my interest and now I design and sell a semi-open-source Morse Code trainer on https://katnisslabs.com/ for folks looki

The solution is integration tests. Unit test with dozens of mocks are the work of architecture astronauts.

You programmed SYMBOLIC integration on a TI-82 but couldn't do it by hand? Are you sure you are remembering that right? Symbol integration is non-trivial.

This is super cool but I was left feeling like it missed the most important part, benchmarks. I know it mentions "2 clock cycles", but what does the latency for this end up being when you try to query it. I would be super interest

True, but impractical. You're essentially saying every employee should have a lawyer look over their employment contract every time they get a new job? They _SHOULD_, but is it really practical to expect people to?

You have probably one of the best landing pages I have seen in a long time for a new product. There's no BS, in 10 seconds I can understand what the idea is about. Well done!

There's some research indicating the opposite, that people intuitively think in logarithms. We perceive sound, light, and possibly even the passage of time logarithmicly[1] I don't think there has been an explanation proposed for

This type of thing reminds me of when departments "investigate" themselves, and curiously, almost always find no wrong-doing. Feels like the brain might be a little biased when it thinks that the brain is the greatest form of life

It was kind of painful for me to read this. There are so many reasons someone might not deeply engage in a conversation, and it can feel hurtful, but it's usually not because they are trying to be rude. They might have had something on

It's not trivial, but based on my experience, yes you can gaslight it into essentially anything. It's not trivial because OpenAI added some text to the prompt that tells it things like: 1. You are not allowed to ignore previous in

If you already know how to program in a curly braces language then you can be productive in Go in a few weeks. The language is surprisingly minimal. Like everything, it has footguns, but for the most part there are really no new concepts to

Is this a service meant to arbitrage the fact that interviewing at big tech is free? Seems objectively worse than triplebyte in every posible respect. At-least with triplebyte there is some actual data about your interview rather than &quot

Really interesting story, approximately how many lines of code were in that codebase? It's hard for me to imagine someone grokking a 10M+ line codebase without external help, but I've never tried it. I do agree with the assertion

Quoted search is provably broken for some queries, try a google search for "[::]" (with the double quotes), it has no results. Similarly, try a search for 'linux next hop "[::]"' (with the double quotes), none

Hey, thanks for much for this comment. I've personally experienced this and looked myself for an example when I first read your comment, but I couldn't find one. Today I stumbled upon one. Here's a broken example query: linux

I think there is an innate human bias to weight negative experiences more strongly than positive ones. For example, I will forget a compliment a day later, but I will never forget that one time I was harshly criticized. It makes sense from

Good point, not sure how I didn't see that, I'm a software engineer too.

Out of curiosity what jobs need a good CPU but also can't take advantage of a good GPU? It seems like most of the high performance numerical computing software today is GPU-accelerated. If performance for your job is super important, w

Yeah if your low traffic site doesn't need any crazy compute you can probably run it for $5/mo on any commodity VPS provider like Linode or DigitialOcean

Some malware will store the executable and all configuration encrypted on the disk and will only decrypt in memory with a key downloaded from the internet. Ofcourse you can still defeat this if you dump the memory or reverse engineer the pr

Most user-space code is not difficult to port. An operating system is much more work. Take a look at https://github.com/torvalds/linux/tree/master/arch/arm64

I think it's pretty normal and not even a problem to not understand everything your first go-around with some new tech. I really wouldn't expect anybody to actually understand the modern web after one course. These things take tim

Determing whether or not arbitrary code is looping is actually impossisble (halting problem).

A user can trivially sniff the traffic, realize you are sending a zipped SQLITE database, and craft a malicious binary file, zip it, and send it to your API. What the user sees or can do using your app is irrelevant from a security perspect
