This is a joke, yet this is basically a very rudimental form of malloc() auditing tool. Because at the end of the program, it could show you all the stuff that is yet allocated, and even scan the program whole memory for the pointers and re

Am I the only one that is shocked by the fact that a 1978 computer, even if a supercomputer (but still using the technology of the time) was 1/4 the speed of a Raspberry? The Pi, if you look at the big picture of computing, is a very f

I believe that some hype / over-enthusiasm is acceptable, but I'm a bit more worried when a given community uses it as some kind of organized propaganda, arriving to excesses like saying that writing code in non-safe languages sho

Rust programs are safer than C programs but almost universally more complicated to write compared to C with equivalent high level libraries for data structures and other operations. So I can't see how your argument applies here.

Are we at this level now? The scheduler performance has nothing to do with the used language. Actually making use of the freedom C provides (while being unsafe) you have the ability to implement whatever complex algorithm you can envision i

That makes sense, but if that's the case I would like to see something a bit more vague polish. For instance: 1. Ability to forward messages to app. 2. Ability to run the same questions to the different LLMs installed. 3. Some updated

I see the efforts required to create the little app, but inference via llama.cpp or core Ml is trivial and the models are open weights, so it makes more sense to have a free app for this: most of the value is in the LLM which is free.

Yes, but this is working. I literally didn't look at the code... but at the result. In other fields GPT can't deliver working code at all.

Indeed, you are right. If you have an M[1,2,3] MacBook with enough RAM, you may want to run some model like DeepSeek-coder 34B in local. Or the smaller one, but it is going to be weaker.

In general Copilot is much weaker than bigger/slower models, so if you have the feeling you are not using AI enough, the first thing to try IMHO is to chat with powerful models like GPT4 to see what is the current state of art in code

There is a misunderstanding going here. A linked list is a pure form of knowledge. What we see today is an explosion of arbitrary complexity that is the fruit, mostly, of bad design. If I learn the internals of React, I'm not really

If the LLM is better than me at writing Torch code, it is a great idea for me to use an LLM to write my model definition, since the exact syntax or the reshaping of the tensors is not so important to me. If I want to create a convnet and tr

Programming is special because 99% of times you can tell immediately if something works or not, so the risk of misinformation is very narrow.

Hey! With the maximum spreading, and the stock (very poor) omni antennas in the Lilygo devices, you get this: ~ 500 - 1km: urban landscape, tons of buildings in the middle. Like opposite sides of a very crowded block. ~ 5 km: open landscape

I happen to be in a special situation here. One of my softwares, Redis, has a very permissive license that was used by many vendors to sell it. At the same time, I'm a lot into 3D printing. So I guess this gives me some perspective on
