It's also very simple and free of ads or any other extraneous clutter, a bit like hacker news, which is also fast. There's probably a lesson in there somewhere.

No, if anything I was disappointed to read within 20% was correct! (I played it before reading your post!)

You forgot the part about when you actually get to the content, there's usually about 5 paragraphs of SEO filler text before it actually gets onto answering the topic of the post.

Scripts ending up in different places is nothing to do with Debian packaging though. It just puts them exactly where you tell it - you're in complete control of that. If you're unaware, the FSH lays out some guidelines a lot of di

That's not the experience I had. The guide I linked to used to be linked to from the main docs page I believe - I went to double check and it now has this more recent guide linked instead - it seems equally thorough. https:/&#x2F

Yes, it is incredibly easy if those files have no external dependencies - say a go binary for example. The format of the .deb package itself is also pretty simple and straightforward. But historically and probably now even almost all packag

Are you acquainted with the new maintainers guide rather than the wiki? To be honest I found it an incredibly comprehensive overview of Debian packaging, all the way up to using pbuilder to ensure dependencies and sandboxed builds, onto lin

Huge respect for all your articles and work on llms, but this example should have been using AI to create a tool that uses AI to intelligently filter hacker news :)

Been making things with wood for a while now, never used or heard of cut sealer! I usually put some type of finish on, maybe more on the ends as they absorb it better, but not just specifically on cuts.

Back in the day when I used to make "webapps" - our integration tests were an epic faff. Often times using things like cucumber to describe a set of interactions, in the days before headless chrome it'd drive selenium which w

Are unit tests a shiny fad? Second time I've seen it mentioned in this thread. Is there some other type of testing I should be doing, or have I been doing it all wrong for the last two decades?

Yep, it's using docker as a means of delivery really. Especially in larger organisations this is just the done thing now. I understand what the OP is saying but not sure they get this context. If I were working in that world still I mi

Yep, then I have some projects that have pytorch dependencies which use it's own bundled CUDA and non-pytorch dependencies that use a CUDA in the usual system wide include path. So CUDA gets packaged up in the container twice unless I

Docker / containers are more than just that though. Using it allows your golang process to be isolated and integrated into the rest of your tooling, deployment pipelines, etc.

I've done both, tiny scratch based images with a single go binary to full fat ubuntu based things. What is killing me at the moment is deploying Docker based AI applications. The CUDA base images come in at several GB to start with, th

I think I agree. Objectively we do have it better than most and tech is generally an extremely cushy job. Even here in Europe salaries can match Doctors and Lawyers but the barrier to entry is much lower and in my experience employment is s

Maybe this misses the point slightly? I'm talking about a time when investment in browser development and web standards was so lacking that being able to achieve things like this blew everyone's mind: https://meyerweb.c

Yep it's an odd take! I was last a "web developer" almost two decades ago, but dipping back in on a few occasions I am always appreciative of how much innovation has happened since then. The world before the huge investment i

True, it's a cliche but it's my dream also. Except the dream includes first using a tech salary to pay off a mortgage or at least most of it, and then being able to comfortably work with my hands in some romantic artisanal manner.

I wasn't unemployable as a graduate, I found a job after all. But I was near enough useless and started from the ground up. I've always felt my real education in software engineering started at work. 20 odd years later I lead a la

Yep this feels like an "and the pope is catholic" type of headline. I really only know a handful of people with desktops and they are all gamers. My office is devoid of them aside a few specialist workstations.

I second this, it's a great fun exercise parsing various binary file formats. At various times through my career I started with simple stuff like BMP and worked up to packetized media streams. On the way learned a lot about bit manipul

They are relatively popular legal pets in Europe - though not sold in many mainstream pet shops. 100% of those kept as pets here are bred in captivity. Having kept them before, they are genuinely about as hard to care for as goldfish but ne

Does it work like that though at this larger scale? 512GB of VRAM would be across multiple NVIDIA cards, so the bandwidth and access is parallelized. But here it looks more of a bottleneck from my (admittedly naive) understanding.

I don't know if go counts as "systems programming" like the other commenter mentions. But I have been recently using it for some tooling and small servers on personal projects where I'd have used python before. Frankly i
