Curious : do you have a team of people working with you, or is it mostly solo work ? your work is so valuable, i would be scared for our industry if it had a bus factor of 1.

That's an interesting hypothesis : that LLM are fundamentally unable to produce original code. Do you have papers to back this up ? That was also my reaction when i saw some really crazy accurate comments on some vibe coded piece of co

Recently had a conversation with a coworker, which thought temporal was too complex for a first implementation. However after looking at the documentation it seems that the tech is very approachable. What makes using temporal complex ?

Is there a trend of new web framework that try to go back to actually using classes / objects instead of functions to build UI components ?

thanks for that comment. I know absolutely nothing about chip designs, but i too was under the assumption that chips, like anything, wear out. And the more you use them, the more they do. Is the wear so small that it’s simply negligible ?

The kind of things that's going to put the last nail in the coffin of the german industry (in terms of brand image).

Nobody in israel's army is aiming at children except maybe for some people turning crazy because of the war, which happens in every war. Pretending otherwise is just blatant propaganda.

you were downvoted because people don't have any argument against your point : jews couldn't stop the holocaust by just surrendering, like hamas does. The two situations have absolutely nothing in common.

interesting talk. I thought mojo actually had innovations at the IR level as well, but it seems to rely on what chris built at google with MLIR. Chris mentioned pushing updates to MLIR while working at Mojo, i'd be curious to have a su

after 15 years refactoring poorly designed iOS apps i can guarantee you 100% of the problems come from an insufficiently designed model layer. Apple is to blame, as they give absolutely O clue on that part (only demo apps with structures th

The datetime mentionned in parent post had both a date and a time component, which has the meaning of a "point in time". Not just a "time". Point in time needs location information to guess the timezone, otherwise you si

Fan here. I watched a lot of your talks about mojo, where you mention how mojo benefits from very advanced compiler technology. But i've never seen you give concret example of this advanced technology. Please, can you write a blog abou

lots of negativity here. I found that POV very interesting. I'll rephrase like this: programmers tend to focus on micro-issues, but with large codebase the main problems are finding the correct abstractions and designs to manage the co

They probably played a dangerous game in the past with hamas, indeed. Much like the US with the iranian mollah, or with the taliban in afghanistan. Yet, now that they've decided to stop this game and finally deal with hamas once and fo

You don't seem to know a lot about the history of jews and israelis... They have nowhere else to go. Jews have spent 2000 years running away from people who wanted to kill them, and now they've decided to stop.

Israel has no perfectly moral solution to hamas in gaza. they chose to err on the side of making sure october 7 never happens again. I don’t blame them for that.

the legal definition is so broad, it’s just dumb. Someone giving a punch in a bar fills their definition, if you take it in its extensive meaning.

i'm really surprised drawings aren't mentionned. Engineers have used drawing for millennia and yet software developers seem to be completely unfamiliar with them. A good drawing will help people visualize the problem in an instant

the "new historians" movement isn't standard by any mean, and their work is tainted by ideology and ubris in every step. It's easy now to say that israel had "distinct advantages". But in the context of the col

The style is very different, for sure. But testimonies of people feeling threatened over their academic career based on political statements on controversial topics isn't a new thing. Don't get me wrong : i'm not defending wh

It was much less a one-man thing, i agree. Looking at the US debates from europe however, I have the feeling monolithic thinking was very much in place in academia on a wide range of topics (gender theory, climate change, israel support, va

i agree with you, but i think it's been the case in the US for the past 15 years already. The only difference is trump pushing toward different issues than biden.

I don't think you know much about jewish history. Not even the very beginning, as in "where does this name come from". All the rest follows. Really, you should start from the very beginning. About israel, you're probably
