You said heavily processed and barely-reported If you want to say Fridman's content is "barely-reported", i.e. he barely does journalism, then I won't really argue. But the interviews are NOT heavily processed, and tha

I haven’t heard that, but if it’s true, it’s probably because he enjoyed math more than engineering or programming. Computer science as a branch of mathematics has a long and fruitful history Or to be more pithy, nobody accomplishes what Di

Ah OK, thanks for clarifying! I'm glad to see these kinds of machines being built, especially with so much open source software

Yeah I mean I have to thank Facebook, because I was at Google in 2011. Anyone remember when Google raised the entire company's salary, maybe 30K or 60K people at that point, something like 20-25% all at once? Eric Schmidt and Laszlo B

I would say it's very clear and logical ... but is it really "from first principles"? I thought that Oxide was based on OpenCompute, which is basically the rack designs that Facebook open sourced, after hiring some Google emp

I was also there in the 2000's and I remember people saying Java can be just as fast as C And in particular that garbage collection can be faster than malloc/free. This is technically true in the case you have a naive C program.

I think you should be able to get rid of the is-oil part, because set -E was implemented last year $ osh -c 'set -E; set -o |grep errtrace' set -o errtrace I'd be interested in any bug reports if it doesn't

I use Claude and like it, but this post has kind of a clunky and stilted style So I guess the blog team also uses Claude

Ah OK that's interesting ... so I guess ReprOS saves other projects the effort of doing that themselves! I am honestly not sure how much effort it would be; I was thinking about doing it / verifying it for https://oils.

Hm that looks pretty nice and useful But I'd also say another way to do it is to build / cross compile on two totally different machines, say Linux and OS X, or Linux and FreeBSD, or even a modern Debian and some Linux VM from 200

Sure, it doesn't apply to everyone. And personally, I don't like walking long distances in the heat either -- I get hot and sweaty. I prefer biking, probably because the motion is more cooling

by chubot 1y ago
I think your body has natural mechanisms to mitigate that initial discomfort. I am now sitting under a tree, after biking in 85 degree weather in July on the east coast. I’ve also biked in 90 and 95 degree weather. And I don’t feel hot at

I believe there was an article/paper in the last few months about that exact issue Someone was saying that with an increasing number of attempts, or increasing context length, LLMs are less and less likely to solve a problem (I searche

I do think it’s interesting how Claude Code makes shell and dev automation more important – it also makes testing and code review more important So there is probably some room for innovation here But most of these seems like problems with C

If it's about auth, then I'd say that's more about the "edges" / porcelain than the core. The claim about git is that you can re-implement the core data structures pretty easily, and they are stable While new

I do cook meats this way, but I’d say it’s only 50% to 80% the quality/flavor of what a good cook can do, say with a beef bourguinon or a bolognese With the vegetables, I’d say it’s more like 80% to 120% the quality, based on the fact

by chubot 1y ago
This is kinda dumb, but I realized in my 40’s you can cook almost any good quality vegetable the same way, and it tastes good Most vegetable recipes look like a lot of ceremony, and it seems like they may be sensitive to mistakes So instead

Not sure what gitoxide is, but libgit already exists, and it seems to be an independent implementation - https://github.com/libgit2/libgit2 I think Github and most big Git hosts use it
