Is the problem with LLMs and Rust really a problem with the training data or a problem with it being harder to get something to compile in Rust? I presume its easier to get something to compile in the dynamically typed languages, and then s

you could have failures in unsafe regions you have written yourself to handle concurrency when under load. of course this begs the question why are you writing such unsafe code. i don't think such code would be idiomatic for an enginee

how is combinations O(n)? for n choose 3 generating combinations is going to approach n^3 since the formula is basically (n * n * n) / constant and for sumToAny generating all the combinations is 2^n.

They shouldn't be able to do this to a US citizen on landing based on his first amendment speech. The important thing here is landing because he really has missed his chance to commit a terror. I guess theoretically you could do someth

The two things you are talking about are very different. One is signatures and one is encryption.

the closest you can get to what you want is a trusted third party who would help derive the final key. so the key could not be revealed to law enforcement without cooperation of the trusted third party who would verify policies like time, e

You still have to be careful with supervision trees and parts of the tree restarting. For example your system might work if the whole erlang operating system process is suddenly killed and restarted but your system might start corrupting da

from the point of maximising value in the economy its a game where in a single iteration co-operate is strictly better than any alternative. if the other player co-operates then that is the best outcome. if the other player defects then you

Some of it looks like 'small town' style intimidation where the group in control of the governing bodies will use law enforcement to intimidate anyone that might bring them embarrassment or threaten their power. The article even m

I thought runners were also using creatine but I can only find discussion around this for amateurs online. I'm not sure if professional runners are using it. It would be interesting to know if professionals are using it because as far

US citizens do have a right to listen to the opinions of others under the first amendment so if the US government does have a visa program then it needs to be run in a way that is viewpoint neutral. so the US government can't revoke th

I think these lawsuits with large damages against media companies are going in a bad direction. But this also includes the lawsuit against Alex Jones and the Covington kids lawsuit but I don't think you will find many people that have

1) is possible because it uses some interesting options like nice/mlockall/changing its oom score so if the atop process went out of control your box would probably be fucked.

this seems similar to the alex jones decision. these large defamation suits threaten the first amendment. i'm sure partisans on both sides will have some excuse why one of these suits is fine and the other is terrible.

I guess for computationally expensive things the only real option is to put it behind a login. I’m sure this is something SourceHut doesn’t want to do but maybe it’s their only decent option.

python does have pointers under the hood. objects are passed via pointers. i think the implementation is tagged values in order to support dynamic typing and passing non-pointer values efficiently. but if there was no object tagging the run

I don’t think there is a difference between go pointers and references in python. For normal pointers to structs at runtime I suspect the implementation is very similar. Maybe it’s different for typescript because the compiler can protect y

Employee NICs and employer NICs are effectively the same thing, they just have different names. Your employer has a bucket of money to pay employees with. Some of this money is given to the government and some of this money is given to thei

the UK has a 20% VAT as well. I don't think the person you were replying to was taking that into account. Also, they are probably not taking into account employer NICs which are effectively the same in terms of tax incidence as employe

you can expect a country that is controlled by its people voting to be a bit schizo to some degree when it comes to treaties. surely, you cannot expect something that is meant to have large effects on domestic policy like the Paris climate

Liberals also support the death penalty but in scenarios where it is less likely to happen. For example if someone doesn’t pay their parking fine it’s possible the situation escalates to a point where an armed government official will kill

Sabine's Doge arc. Very interesting timing. But I guess it makes sense. Now is the best time to air this when the government is more likely to be sympathetic to her argument.
