I am not up on all the fancy A.I. tech out there....but how different is this from something like go-fuzz which does fuzz testing based on genetic algorithms (if my memory serves) written by Dmitry Vyukov from Google. Edit link: https:&#x2

“Hashtable: like an array but instead of an index you can set arbitrary keys for each value.” This sounds like a gross over simplification of what a Hashtable really is underneath the covers. Any candidate that shows up with that definition

I burned many hours on the original Doom, in my bedroom as a young teenager with headphones on in the dark. Remember the No Clipping cheat code? Here’s the source code check to turn it on: https://github.com/id-Software&#x2F

I loved Sierra’s games: it was my gateway into the world of computers and was my inspiration for being a software engineer. I still have all my Sierra games, original boxes, documentation, and disks. I also have a few—around 24 issues of In

Ummm...your kidding right? I know ripgrep has a ton of fantastic optimizations by Burntsushi. You might wanna check it out...before making such statements.

Hey Apple...please prioritize robustness over thinness...I don’t care if my laptop is super thin and has keys that only have to travel .00000003 millimeters if the thing isn’t going to work after a dust particle falls on it.

People can nitpick and complain about Github but the platform works and Github is now the de-facto standard for both open and closed source projects. Hats off to Github...but let’s also not forget the AMAZING tool underneath the covers that

I was hoping to see a mention of Pony which looks like a promising language based on the actor model.

Impressive but my side projects are even cheaper to run because 1/3 of the way through I lose excitement, never finish them and then don’t do anything with them. ;) Nice post!

That’s a bold statement...I’m not holding my breath. We still haven’t seen a solid proposal and the work required would likely be even more monumental after the fact.

Just glancing at the white paper examples shows that this article is completely sensational and missing the point. Good call out.

Isn’t the whole point of crypto-based currencies is to develop a system that has no need to be regulated by a government agency or any single entity at all? If this is about protecting the consumer, perhaps the consumer shouldn’t be meddlin

After watching a handful of these videos I came back to say that I actually feel like I understand music a little better than before.

That’s a tough situation to be in. Hopefully Amazon is working on a solution for you. Cloud is definitely not bullet-proof and risks are always there. I think it generally still wins however because as Cloud solutions get better, with bette

The biggest problem I see with microservices is the pendulum now swings way to far the other way. Now you end up in microservice soup, too much overhead, no standards used in between them with differing levels and quality of execution. I’m
