There was a contest for which language the fastest tokenizer could be written in. I entered my naive 15 minutes Rust version and got second place among roughly 30 entries. First place was hand-crafted assembly. I am not saying Rust is faste

Yet others just invite journalists to signal groups accieentally and don't face any repercussions. Strange.

Maybe I forgot about this, but how would you secure the scheduler api/dashboard from unauthorized access? This might be a good point to add to the readme.

No it is also not an OS problem, it is a problem of perverse incentives. AI companies have to monetize what they are doing. And eventually they will figure out that knowing everything about everyone can be pretty lucrative if you leverage i

As a certified electrical engineer, the amount of times googles LLM suggested a thing that would have at minimum started a fire is staggering. I have the capacity to know when it is wrong, but I teach this at university level. What worries

So what they want is to essentially write a spec with business rules and implementation details ans such, and version control that instead of the actual source code? Not sure what stops you from doing that just right now.

If you ever find yourself in the situation where you have to decide whether 99 parses to year 1999 and what to do with 100 and where to draw the line between parsing the 90s and current years, you should probably pause, reath in andaout

It being designed is what also should give away that it could also be designed differently . People who create, be it artists, designers and engineers can sometimes develope that insight from their daily practise. We create, thus we have a

Yes, but the main question is into which direction the arrow of causalality points for the main part: Does an individual trust their image of the world, because it summarizes the evidence well? Or do they grade all evidence based on the ima

Ehh.. Two years ago an art student asked me to clone her personality into a LLM bot. It is absolutely possible to do that to some degree, but you have to be very good at describing the profile(s) of the person and have a mechanism that ke

Mutually incompatible. A chill job won't teach you new things, since chill implies unchallenging. Most interesting learnings will happen when you cross the point of no return, where you feel really challenged or even overburdened at

Well the trick is to schedule the meeting at hh:mm, but start it at hh: mm+5 and then just make this a policy organization-wide. In academia (mostly European) this has been a concept for centuries to allow changes of classes to happen: h

Let me explain what I meant with opinionated: Markdown decided for the users what the needed formatting options are, instead of giving them a bunch of tools that they could then combine in many different ways. The latter would be unopiniona

The thing this oversees is that the interface is important, simpler is not worse, it can in fact often mean better. For example while docbook may have some technical, the user experience for someone who just wants to write some basic stuff

I worked in the shipping department of an online store as a side job during my studies, so I know a bit or two about this. The issue is that management of all shipping companies is expected to run their services 100% resource-efficiently an

Wait, how do you exfiltrate a head of state without establishing some level of control for even the briefest of periods?

The true answer is: Hold your politicians accountable for this at every level, including at the "boring" local level and on all levels all the way up to the top. This type of problem needs to be fixed on the society level.

Sure. But a year ago the US didn't have a ministry of war and the head of that ministry didn't say he wants to betray and invade an ally. Even the thought of this would have been laughed at for being to satirical a year ago. But h

Yes but compare it to trains or busses. If I want to take the train/bus I make sure I am at the station 10 minutes before the vehicle departs. In my experience the good time to arrive before a flight (with luggage to check in) is rough

So it is good that most Rusts introductions tell you that you should favor composition over inheritance in multiple places: https://rust-for-c-programmers.com/ch20/20_3_rust_s_approach... If Rust pushes any concept it

Want to reduce the time it takes to get somewhere? Reduce the security circus at airports. This will cut off way more of the travel time for the majority of flights, wothout the downsides of supersonic planes.

So how is anti-fascism left-wing extremism? Fighting fascism is required of every person who wants to keep a working democracy, regardless of your fiscal policy ideas or how egoistical you want your government to represent you. Democracy

Ad too few tickets: I happen to live close by the venue (CCH in Hamburg) they fill up. And they do fill it up. That is the limiting factor. Some person that wanted to get a ticket not getting one is bad, but what is worse is to have more vi
