Ya, I think this is a great insight. In today's world, code is not released as a versioned artifact sold on a disc or downloaded. The idea of "shipping" is fuzzy. You might be 100% in production with some change and it could

The source is not open, so not open source. It's as simple as that to me. That doesn't mean you can't allow the modification of your weights, but a model is not open source because it lets you modify its weights. If we take t

My guess is this comes down to funding, and having to choose if the money will go to spend more time with students that struggle, to help them out, or with students that excel, to boost them further. And we really shouldn't be having t

I think it depends how people interpret neutral. Choosing what to talk about or not in itself has influence. It's impossible to be a newspaper and not in any way help or support one side over another in a conflict, even if you don&#x27

That's kind of true for normal programs as well, depending on the compiler you use, and if it has non-deterministic processes in it's compilation. But still, it's about being able to reproduce the same build process, and get

by didibus 2y ago
I agree. If it's open source, surely I can at least "compile" it myself. If the data is missing, I can't do that. We'll end up with like 5 versions of the same "open source" model, all performing different

Well, quite a few people already use AOT with PGO from GraalVM to build native executables of Clojure programs. Those start stupidly fast. I never heard of anyone doing so with OpenJ9, how good is the AOT of OpenJ9? AppCDs in OpenJDK curren

FP in CL is kind of optional, and it's also more in the sense that you can pass functions as arguments or return functions, meaning FP == First Class Functions. But in Clojure, FP is kind of mandatory, there's no OO for example, a

It's just: (let [[quotient remainder] (floor x y)] (+ (* quotient z) (* remainder (first (floor z y))))) Because in Clojure there's no multiple value bind, when you want to return many results from a functi

Ya, so you'll be working with the DB directly instead of through an Object representation. And I agree with you, it's less features, and maybe it would be nice to have something similar in Clojure, but there's a reason the fe

by didibus 2y ago
Well, there are objects through interop, and under the hood everything is compiled into one. But when you develop an app, you won't be defining classes and instantiating objects of them, you'll be instead writing functions that re

Can you talk more about these?

In Clojure you'll have to write the queries yourself unfortunately. People always ask, where is the fully fledged web framework in Clojure? There isn't one. Why there isn't one is hard to answer, but it's partially becau

There's no object in Clojure, so there's no need for an Object Relational Mapper. You just work directly of the query result sets, which the SQL library itself can conveniently turn into rows of maps if you prefer (over rows of li

What's so different to Clojure's ? (let [a 1 [b c] (list 2 3) [d e] [4 5]] `(~a ~b ~c ~d ~e)) ;; => (1 2 3 4 5)

Nice catch. Is it an issue though when the script injection only runs within your own browser session?
650.
by didibus 2y ago
Clojure also teaches you functional programming, where-as CL only teaches you the LISP beauty. Clojure teaches you both Lisp and Fp. So the FP part should still be worth it even though you got the Lisp part from CL.

I mean... That's not an issue in other runtimes, so it's kind of a JVM quirk no?
652.
by didibus 2y ago
Well, it's still partially the JVM at play. For example, if your application has big classes, and many classes, the JVM will be slow to start. This is what is happening here. Clojure is like a large-ish Java project, it has big classes
653.
by didibus 2y ago
You still don't see many scripts or CLI apps in Java though. I was wondering if that would change now that you can run a source file directly, but then wouldn't the startup be slower, because now it's also having to compile.

There is Supplemental Security Income in the US. And I think in Canada and Europe there are even more government subsidies available.

I wish they also talked about latency, because now what I want is for cloud gaming, video calls, and other real time use cases to get extremely responsive and latency free. Beyond 1 gig, I'm not sure I'd notice much difference in
