If anyone else is looking for more information on this, like I was, this stack is called the “return stack buffer”.

Constraint-based tiling maybe?

But if I said I’m building an office, would you assume I’m furnishing an empty rented space, or constructing the building?

Neither can I. They look identical to me.

Given that this is the first time I’ve ever heard of either of those, I think the point stands.

Makes it unreadable for me too.

This is what I’ve struggled with when trying to learn erlang/elixir/gleam: If I go all in, then modelling as actors makes sense. The domain model is modelled as in-memory actors, using erlang features for persistence and what not.

That sounds like a good middle ground. Ahh I wish I had some more time, I’d love to benchmark all three and see how they compare. In my own you VM, I do actually have a spare general purpose registers available for use. Now I just need to

I've been playing around with this and its worth noting that pre-decoding the bytecode because it means every instruction (without operands) is the width of a pointer (8 bytes on x86) which means you fit far fewer instructions into cac

None of the items listed there have been ticked off in the time since the ticket was opened, not even the “create v3 branch” one. Mike also has had plans for v3 for at least the last decade too. So, I’m sure it’ll get worked on when he can,

I believe I was actually trying to use that. It’s been a few years so my memory is hazy, but isn’t Fargate just a special case of ECS where they handle the host machines for you? In any case, the problem wasn’t so much ECS or Fargate, beyon

> Charging per deployment sounds crazy though. I think technically I was just being charged for the container host machine, but while each individual deploy only lasted a minute or so, I was being charged the minimum each time. And each

I know it’s minor in comparison, but I will never use AWS again after running up a $100 bill trying to get an app deployed to ECS. There was an error (on my side) preventing the service from starting up, but cloud waatch only had logs about

Exactly, the idea that it would take a weekend seems crazy to me. It’s certainly not something I need AI for.

Most frontend frameworks come with usable templates. Setting up a new Vite React project and getting to a formatted hello world can be done in half an hour tops.

1. Is such a taste task for me anyway that I don’t lose much just doing it by hand 2. The last time I wrote boilerplate heavy Java code, 15+ years ago, the IDE already generated most of it for me. Nowadays boilerplate comes in two forms for

Well… we can’t save people from themselves. It’s always prudent to ensure the libraries you use are high quality, stable, and well maintained and your list is a good order of reference to live by, in any language.

Thanks for taking the time to tell us about your experience! I’m happy it works well for you! With that said, that doesn’t sound like it’s for me. This sounds like what I already do in C++ (except I use git submodules for dependencies becau

The fact that it not only doesn’t have a built in build tool/package manager, but that the author has also said he doesn’t believe in them and will never make one was very off putting to me. I love how languages like Rust have cargo, o

Lua with LuaJIT has pretty good performance. With that said, I spent today writing in C++, so I do agree with the overall sentiment.

That’s because windows is loaded with trash. You can easily run desktop Linux with 4 GB or RAM, and people have been doing it for decades.

The GPT4 you’re using must be a different one form what I’m using, because for me GPT4 was only an incremental improvement over GPT3.5 and while both are a step up from everything that came before, it’s output is still very mechanical to th

“Soon it will reach levels of complexity vastly exceeding any human brain.” I doubt the “soon” part. Artificial neurons are vast simplifications of real neurons, and even complex networks like GPT don’t come close the complexity of biolog

I did this back in 2009 for a couple of months and it was fantastic. I then switched to Clojure because it was a little more mainstream (relatively speaking at least haha), but I feel I learned a lot from my time with Factor. It certainly m

To whoever downvoted me: if you can’t make money without breaking the law then you shouldn’t be in business. I’m honestly baffled people disagree with that.

I would also be able to make money if I could use copyrighted material for free, but that doesn’t make it ok for me to do. If they can’t exist without doing so, then maybe they shouldn’t exist. They don’t have any inherent right to making m

To be completely fair, there are some things I did have success with getting code generated. For example, I made a little python script to pull fields out of TOML files and converted them to CSV (so that I could import the data into a sprea

I, on the other hand, find the C way brain dead and would be very happy with these changes.
