Very nice! Thanks for the link.

This is a good book, probably still relevant but not up to date. See Advanced C and C++ Compiling [0] for a more modern treatment, including using tools like objdump, nm, and readelf to explore compilation artifacts. [0] https://

I went to a Sun conference almost 20 years ago. I remember there was a presentation on Solaris internals and I decided to attend on a whim, since I knew so little about it. I will never forget something the presenter said and how smugly he

But you wouldn’t be comparing them as much as evaluating a third strategy which is “randomly switch or not”. Right?

Fantastic answer. I went through and built the tree and it just shows everything so neatly. There's just a small mistake, when you say: 4. then have the contestant either switch or not switch and cut all your probabilities in ha

2012 article so it predates my time by quite a bit. Not a thing anymore though.

I can guarantee you that “ingesting a nut” through the engine is not part of the official engine qual program. Maybe it happened once and somehow the engine survived and they were able to ascertain what had happened. But this is not a commo

Not negating your anecdotal evidence but this is not even a fair comparison. Is 40k post-tax? Where does your friend in the EU live? Germany? Or Italy? Dresden or Torino? Where do his US peers live? Arizona? Or LA? Worlds of difference. Is

Isn’t this a case of choked flow? In choked flow, you don’t need a very high pressure ratio to go sonic. You only need P_exit/P_reservoir <= 0.582. That is, the pressure of the reservoir (the bottle in this case) only needs to be 1.

Not really a fair comparison but children learn to speak with barely any training data compared to LLMs. I’m hopeful a large training corpus will not be so necessary in the future.

Yeah, the rate of change since the 1960s has been incredible. I like to think of that as being a direct consequence of inventing an infinitely reconfigurable general purpose calculator :) I don’t know about LLMs… it might hit a performance

If you had witnessed the Wright brothers' first flight you would have had a hard time predicting that within 60 years we would be landing on the moon. And if you were playing computer games in the 1980s in a slow DOS box you could not

I started reading this and honestly don’t see the part where he “compares poorly” against Muratori. And disclaimer, I know more about Casey and his work than I know about “Uncle Bob”. If anything, Bob managed to explain himself very well an

I don’t think we are saying the same thing. My point is that, 4.0 GPA or not, if you don’t take the SAT/ACT you will be at a disadvantage when applying to elite, private universities. For the very simple reason that there’ll be many ot

That sounds very localized to the institution your friend works at. And public universities have very different admission procedures than private ones. You won’t get into a high tier private university (Ivy or not) without SAT/ACT sco

This is the typical libertarian insanity: "Regulations are bad, ergo there should be no regulations. And once we get rid of them everything will just work because somehow everyone will still abide by _some_ rules, although they are not

Typical libertarian strawman. You can pull all the foam you want out of _your_ device. No one cares. The government least of everybody. You are free to hurt yourself due to the consequences of your own actions. You can't go modifying s

Me, personally, I’m better on the soft skills. Things like better organizing my work and strongly separating work and personal life. My work day is 8-5 and that’s the time I have to get everything done. That’s it. I don’t take work home so

Let’s not pass judgement on what other people love or not. You simply have no idea. There are many things I love but since I got a family I just don’t have time for them. Or if I have the time I realize there’s a million other things I can

So you want all of NYC to have harvest festivals? Those traditions and rituals are alive and well in small communities. Modern agriculture is based on the need to feed millions and millions of people. That’s why it is the way it is.

You could probably keep 15 million rows in a csv file and still get great performance. Without even mentioning sqlite. Any reason to use such an overkill solution for that problem? Honest question, not passing judgement.

Interesting job! Would one of the HITLs you work on be named after a rock band by any chance?

A person's auditory reaction time is probably below 1s and that would throw off your calculation by ~340m. Most farms are larger than 340m in any direction so you still end up within the same property area.

For a one off thing, use awk. For the production pipeline spend the time writing the Java one (or Rust, or C++, or… etc). Or use the awk one in production if you want. Nothing wrong with awk ;)
