Seniors are also really expensive. By some estimates you spend half of your lifetime healthcare cost in the last five years of your life. It typically takes multiple working people to support a single senior on government benefits.

I agree about the email login. It is huge barrier and it is why I use other providers for chat over Claude. I still use their API though.

It’s not either/or. The CPython speedups would be even better with the single threaded interpreter.

> That's the trade-off. Personally I think a single digit percentage slow-down of single-threaded code worth it. Maybe. I would expect that 99% of python code going forward will still be single threaded. You just don’t need that ext

The government spends about 10x the amount of money on foreign aid than the gates foundations entire budget ever year. Not to mention the hundreds billions spent on domestic aid every year. So your dream is already a reality.

What good do you think that would do?

The author says that with a 1.2GB bloom filter and 7 hash functions lookup is only 30ns. I have to assume this is because the cache has loaded all the benchmark values. My guess is that the benchmark is only testing a few elements. In real

I had this same issue. About once a week it would prompt me for the password for an old Apple ID. I eventually started over from scratch to work around the issue.

I hope that at some point I can use AI to filter my RSS feed for me. It knows the kind of content I want and the stuff I always skip. Sure it won’t be perfect, but it would let me subscribe to more high volume feeds without having to manual

I am not very well read on this topic, but it seems like there are other ways to make shelf stable food that doesn’t necessarily make it harder to digest. For example high salt or sugar contents, or removing most of the water. These make it

Is it the actual silicon that can’t handle it, or is contraction in joints and connections that breaks?

I am curious what causes these landers to fail in the bitter cold of night? Is it the batteries? It seems like circuitry should be fine.

Thanks for writing this. I am curious if you benchmarked the giant switch implementation? While the current VM has some benefits (no bytecode, easy to pass argument's, cleaner compiler, etc ) it also has some performance overhead. Some

How do you reconcile that with the observation that moving to a computed goto style provides better codegen in zig[1]? They make the claim that using their “labeled switch” (which is essentially computed goto) allows you to have multiple br

I recently was traveling a lot and would take a uber multiple times a day. I asked all my drivers what they thought of the gig. To my surprise, most were pretty happy about it. The ones that were happy really liked the flexibility and auton

They are array encoded, but you still will be jumping all over the array to do your operations. Putting multiple “nodes” at the same location will mean fewer jumps, and hence fewer cache misses.

In the same way that B-trees have emerged as a more cache friendly version of binary trees, it seems like you could create a Fenwick tree that stores multiple “children” at the same location. It would probably be less algorithmically beauti

I love seeing photos like this, and assumed that you would need the Hubble to capture pictures of space this good. But I have been following Andrew McCarthy [1] on twitter and am amazed at how good of pictures you can get with a backyard te

There is a crate that can handle regex over non contiguous data. It had some weak points, but overall is really good https://crates.io/crates/regex-cursor

None of the models use images, they all operate and a json format the describes the input squares.

What surprises me about this is how poorly general-purpose LLMs do. The best one is OpenAI o1-preview at 18%. This is significantly worse than the purpose-built models like ARChitects (which scored 53.5). This model used TTT to train on the

I have actually done some work on a rewrite of the Emacs core in rust[1], so I have thought a lot about this question. Most of the things you would want to change could be fairly easily added to the existing Emacs. The biggest ones that are

What advantage would you get by rewriting it in Rust?

All of this is possible in the current Emacs. 1. You can already define what program opens a file in dired. You could even use detach it from the Emacs process so it stays open when Emacs closes. 2 we already have vterm, which has all the f

Are all these “higher-level datatypes for key abstractions” trying to achieve first-class collaborative editing? That sounds a lot like Zed.
