I don't think it's simple. I find lifetimes especially challenging. I love rust, but sometimes I am remarkably unproductive in it because the compiler is so strict. Honestly, sometimes I think I need flash cards for memorizing how

Lifetimes! That's what I need help with! How do you learn lifetimes?

It's also possible that it was an accidental lab leak. But yes, its going to be next to impossible to prove.

I'm building a deep learning dataset right now... I feel the grind in my bones.

sometimes I think I should time block so I could make guaranteed progress on certain projects... the problem is that much of my day is spent working on tasks that are impossible to estimate the duration of. example: fixing a bug. it could t

I used to be pretty bad too... I think it took me about 5 years to get to decent... and probably 5 more to get to damn good. A lot of software is about having the right mental models... for me the book that helped was Steven's Advanced

Hey, question... Is an LD_PRELOAD version of cosmopolitan possible?

Yes! I wonder if there is a way to make a light battery? :)

Its not sweet (usually)... It is steamed though, and generally filled with some kind of yummy meat. For some reason, I grew up eating them with scrambled eggs so that's how I like em.

I think the problem is that these AI solutions should integrate at a lower level. Instead of a giant brain that does everything (and screws it up), just give people ML based tools... and let people hook them up and decide what they need.

This tool creates VOC annotations from video files. Useful for object detection.

its interesting that once again stress triggers regenerative processes.

Let me try to explain another way. Lets say your brain had 10 neurons... Well, then you certainly could understand it. What if it had 1000? Sure... You could probably handle that. Ok, but the human brain has 100 billion neurons. Where are y

Do you know how your brain works? I mean, in detail. No you do not, and you cannot. Nothing can truly understand itself. Even if the brain is composed of higher level "computation units" and you can understand how those units are

If I had to choose I'd say prefer strict... But reading this made me wonder: what if you could be strict during development but switch to forgiving for deployment?

Yawn. The story again and again with AI is that it's advances cease being AI as soon as they are real... We are already living in an AI world.

I would phrase this differently. "Ferrari is bricked by poor software engineering & not handling a normal use case."

snaps and flatpaks are something I've wanted on Linux forever: self contained apps. supporting umpteen million Linux distros is a non starter for small isv's (or even large ones). if they aren't perfect, fix them... but don&#

When Ebola was kicking off a few years ago I had a realization: If you wait to prepare until everyone agrees preparation makes sense then it's too late. That said the prepper mindset is a slippery slope... so I think the answer is to p

What about synthetic data that is correct? Example: Using the output of a physics simulation to train... The output is synthetic (as in, its not from the real world) but it is governed by the equations of motion...

I used to suck at algebra, then I wrote c++ code for 30 years... now I can see how they differ and how they are similar. sometimes when you are programming in a big body of code you are dealing with lots of types (types in the programming s

fork() explanations generally describe the api's, maybe talk a little about COW and memory protection... but I never see sufficient explanation of WHEN to use fork().

I'm fine with SQL, but i would also like there to be a more explicit language that requires you to invoke the indexes when querying explicitly (instead of implicitly like SQL). If you attempted to use an index that didn't exist th
