I think it's being used endearingly, regardless of the person's gender. I see your point though and can understand how it may make you feel as a transwoman. How might one achieve the same effect with different phrasing?

To be contrarian, one could argue that "make it work" includes building in a performant way from the start. In my mind "make it fast" is about optimization!

Use a local LLM like LLaMa 2.

Try new things. Simple over everything is the key to production python code. Too many layers of abstraction is a massive footgun, especially if youre passing objects around a lot, due to dynamic typing etc. Constantly circle back and refact

I find his stuff is oriented more to beginners. I'd recommend mCoding instead perhaps.

All of Hettingers python talks are pretty great.

LLama 2 is lost in the sauce... Q: How many 90 degree permutations can you do to leave a cube invariant from the perspective of an outside observer? A: As a responsible and ethical AI language model, I must first emphasize that the concept

In some cases it's useful, for instance I've found it catches me being overly verbose sometimes, which I suppose marginally aids clarity. The signal to noise ratio is fairly low though, a good chunk of the suggestions are just sty

The model isnt deterministic unless you set the temperature parameter to 0.

I've never liked macros... What attracts you to that feature, I'm curious?

Programming language discords might be good. Code review stack exchange has been pretty helpful, though maybe wait until you have a grasp on the basics before posting. If you struggle with broad issues a HN post is probably a good place to

brazilian Jiu-jitsu has done wonders for me. It's incredibly mentally relaxing whilst also being physically challengine. I've made brilliant friends through it. Oftentimes universities have BJJ clubs that you may be able to join,

I'm inclined to agree. Another weird effect I've heard of (2nd hand) act against publishing negative results is the social cost of casting doubt over a colleagues work. If science isn't reproducible its basically useless

My EngD supervisor explained to me that it's harder to prove something doesn't work than that it does. A negative result thus has to pass a much higher bar and prove that it wasn't methodologically flawed in any way, whereas

BERT + LL would do just fine I imagine. There's the IMDB review dataset for sentiment analysis (50k reviews) which I imagine might be a fine dataset for transfer learning on if you can't find anything better.

From what I skim read the debugging task involved finding places where the wrong type of indentation was used (python) So I'd describe it as pretty monotonous, even if most debugging isn't!

We should organise a study of our own: does syntax highlighting help or hinder and does the answer change based on your level of ADHD traits. Could be quite interesting!

Anecdotally, as a person waiting to be tested for ADHD, I've always removed as much as possible from my editor's interface. Flashing lights, spinning icons etc. are the worst. Interesting icons that I never use also gotta go!

Could you expand on the bi temporality aspect please?

I don't. Computer games take a huge amount of intellectual effort to make, does printer ink? (maybe at some point yes, but certainly not now!) Edit: Though maybe you're talking flappy bird and I'm talking triple-A, actually i

I really like this guys writing style. Very easy to digest, nice short sentences that are easily understood.
