CATL is working on 12000 Wh/kg air batteries, they will solve this problem, give them the prize.

I hate compilers too, just because in theory they are the simplest type of program: transform one file into another. How is not be reproducible? You need to make an effort! Yet the author of this post has trouble getting a reproducible buil

The end of GitHub as we know it is near? Why do open source collaboration? Why not a single product developer getting crowd paid to add features, solve bugs, using AI. So many businesses will see their moat wiped out. On the macro level cap

Then where does the real stuff go? The arabs, indians?? Tea bags are the mass market in Europe for example. Hardly anyone uses tea leaves (are they different?). I know an Iranian in the Netherlands who says the tea there is mostly coloring.

where is the graph and the theorem for integers of n bits, with n going to infinity?

C# is close to achieving that goal.

Billionaires? We're basically talking about the first 10 trillionaire, Elon Musk, and the inauguration of the supervillain category. He'll hold a majority stake in his soon to be Skynet empire SpaceXAI+Tesla. Which means he&#x27

I guess all (or most) of these could be replaced by a RISC-V VM, with the necessary domain extensions. A RISC-V VM already competes with WASM for many applications.

Just let me type the date in the user's local format and put in the dashes/slashes with a regex (and remove them again before applying insert/Backspace/Delete). Almost always this is so messed up and broken. And slow. Si

I think your syntax choices are refreshing. You're clearly not afraid to step away from the beaten track, and made some nice, potentially fruitful, choices that bring some sanity to C.

What will be the lifetime of AVX512? There have been many similar extensions before it. So it's a great result, but heavily marked by the target platform. I have the hope that RISC-V vector extensions will prove to be the more durable

Stephen Wolfram is fascinated with his discovery of computation at the heart of the universe. Life itself may be like that, emerging then noticing itself and that it is alive - has the property of life. Then when it's governed by a &qu

Love this. But no explanations about the language. `defer` for example I didn't see in the 2 `main.n` I checked, and memory management remained a mystery. Would love to see a little more context. Also, this is actually around 1000 line

A lossy compressor might also be useful for common floating point apps. The simplest compressor ever would just chop off a number of bits from the mantissa.

They'll all have a sun synchronous polar orbit.. I don't think they'll be very low orbit, unless they are like trains, at every 1km a satellite.

These datacenters in space will become space junk. Doesn't seem to be sustainable. With a million of these it's hard to imagine why this would be a good idea, and it starts looking like insanity.

So this is a notebook with good enough TPU capabilities to run Gemini partially (like in a MoE), a small model that knows when to delegate to the main model?

Gemini assures me one can make a 32b CPU in around 9000 transistors or 300 LUTs, it'll run at 30 cycle accurate MIPS from quad SPI memory. Same size as a 6809, low-end 486 performance. Who cares ;)

So how can a QR code not supply the necessary data? Example: payment://iban=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&amount=12.34EUR Any bank app should be able to read this. What is so complicated? Right, nothing. Credit card companies are a

> "I'll need to study the docs and code to answer these questions properly" is a perfectly fine (and very diplomatic) response to treatment like that. By the time you said that, the AI could have given the 80% answer. So,

The comments here seem to suggest that the loyalty program funded with credit card margins are to blame for the difference. It suggests we'd be better of eliminating the absurdly high hidden taxes paid to the credit card companies, tha

I got a great I idea: let's turn this into a language, one that supports parallelism, so we can boot the system while maintaining full flexibility! /s Now if we base this off the D programming language, the universe will remain at

But does it require ES6? Javascript was quite minimal in the early days. It doesn't need a JIT, in fact I'd prefer it not to be.

So they solved the refueling problem you'll have when "floating" in the Venus atmosphere? Seems to me going to Venus is a one way trip.

So funny to see all the cmake instructions. Really makes you want to go back in time. Turbo C or Pascal, hit F9 and you're up and running. It does showcase our incompetence. In this age we should be able to point to some online compile
