Weren't those functions moved to tidyr? Anyway they should be taken as a model for how to implement a sane interface for data reshaping in other languages. You can say what you want about R/Wickham, but he's not afraid to thi

As much as I don't like working in R, the pivoting/reshaping functions in tidyr are hard to beat. It's much more ergonomic than the similar functions in Python

Your experience at ETH might vary a lot though. Their PhD programs are extremely heterogeneous between departments and vary from modern, well structured grad schools to the old-fashioned central European style where the student are basicall

Nullable types, module level functions, context receivers, nicer type signatures for functions, a better standard library (e.g map works directly on lists without the stream.map crap)

That was my feeling too. Kotlin in Vscode was not usable. My computer ground to an halt as soon as I typed something

How's the Kotlin language server performance for you? When I last tried it was using up so much resources for the simplest Kotlin file. I gave up and moved to intelliJ (which incidentally offers plenty of refactoring features you don&#

Couldn't agree more! It's particularly disappointing when you need to work on an older java codebase after finishing a Kotlin project. You'll constantly miss features

I stil (occasionally) get sleep paralysis in the form of a person descending a rope from the ceiling or trying to enter from the window. Over time I learned to recognise it for what it is and control my reaction, saving a few bedside lamps

Thank you, very cool work. A small note: the first example doesn't work on mobile devices. If I drag, it will just scroll the page instead of drawing

I doubt the government can do much for this (unless you want to return to the old East German tradition of planned production): these places offers very limited jobs and lower incomes. It would need a very large investment to make these pla

It was hyped some years ago. There are plenty of legitimate applications of graphs, perhaps the library offers well optimized implementation of important algorithms. But the past hype around all things "graph" was not rational. As

They still manage to capture a significant amount of people to protest on their behalf

It is depressing really. People actively protesting about something which is entirely in their interests. It's almost like refusing clean water and sewage

It is hard for me to say what drives the loss of (perceived) legitimacy in experts and authorities. As you rightly said, given the global problems we are facing we urgently need more of it. It is just depressing sometimes

Thanks to conspiracy theorists we can't even have good things. An innocent idea (design cities to have most daily necessities in a reasonable radius) becomes a conspiracy to trap us all

It's almost the same in the field of ELN/LIMs. Researchers are required to use one, but there's no wider strategy mandating the systems to be interoperable

I'm very happy with WSL2. The only (well known) problem is the issue with routing when running containers in WSL while behind a VPN. Strangely WSL-vpnkit can't help anymore after some recent updates. It seems WSL 2 2.0.0 will help

My only doubt is whether you need to design a special "language" to store the queries/configurations. Wouldn't it be easier to leverage existing languages, maybe something like dhall?

True, but it seems asbestos because of the particular shape of the fiber is particularly nasty and more likely to cause mesothelioma

I think you are right, and it seems the frequency domain aspect could also have won for historical reasons: the first "SAR" systems were effectively performing doppler beam sharpening by passing the output of a conventional radar

by bafe 3y ago
Indeed I mean the time domain (or better yet, "space domain" backprojection. Besides being it easier to justify, it's easier to connect to the principles of other imaging system and it's much easier to generalise to non-

Thanks! This looks great! I like the local first (or local only) approach of your tool. It's very refreshing in comparison to the bloated monsters like campfire or postman

Having worked on SAR (polarimetric and interferometric) for my PhD, I always wondered why most explainations of SAR take the frequency-domain approach of describing it in term of Doppler resolution instead of explaining the process of apert

I opened the link expecting an article criticising annotation processors or macros, not a vague writeup on LLM/AI code tools

by bafe 3y ago
Thanks, that makes sense. I think I approached more from the perspective of a library writer that doesn't want to delve into the depth of language to implement transformations/macros. However it does seem reasonable to have a vari

Interesting, but I don't see how operating on the code model is going to be any easier than working on the AST. It seems much more hard to reason about many transformations as compared to manipulating the AST. I do hope they take inspi
