AIUI, Reddit uses it for some internal tools. They would be a good backer.

That happens at all large organisations. I worked at a large oil company and if our contracts with a vendor represented (or would have represented) more than a certain % (i forget what) of that vendors business, they didn't get the co

I'm no expert but that looks like an impressive feat of skill, coming blind through the clouds and picking out a relatively small patch to land on. Remember also it is late autumn there, pretty windy (according to TFA) and the wind wou

Best of luck to you! My son is doing them too. This is a great project btw. Doing this sort of stuff teaches you far better than endless lessons.

Funnily enough, I actually prefer the VSCode model for git. On the occasions I use IntelliJ, I find the git actions spread across multiple panels or dropdowns. In VSCode, it's all in one place and the current state clearly visible. YM

He basically invented the natural history documentary, maybe even the science documentary. Before him, there was little to no serious natural history programming, or what there was was quite "folksy". And with it, he created, sust

A radio report I heard said that hantavirus is nothing like coronavirus. It is not new, endemic, and there is plenty of immunity around to slow down local spread.

Agreed. I found compose overlay files merged list values differently between the Docker and Podman versions, which was a PITA in teams running Docker & Linux dev machines.

The majors that do upstream (taking it out of the ground) as well as downstream (refining and selling it on the forecourt or wholesale) make their profits on the oil markets. When crude is high, it's upstream that earns the income. Whe

Isn't that (part of) the purpose of using something like Ariel OS, to isolate you from changes?

Yeah, that threw me as well. Also worth pointing out that the Old English version at each of those dates probably varied quite a bit. This was the time period over which Old English was being influenced by external factors such as Norse and

Nice work. The hot-reload dev cli looks very cool in a compiled-binary world.

I can't find any info on what exactly is open sourced. And in any case what does open source actually mean for an llm? It's not like you can look inside it to see what it's doing.

Your stack trace tells you where in the code the error occurred, but doesn't tell you what it was doing with what data. For that you need to pass context for the error up the chain of calls, adding to it as you go up. Exceptions ar

This is the kind of scenario that is served better by Go/C-style error values than exceptions. Error values facilitate and encourage you to log what you were doing at the precise point when an error occurs. Doing the same with exceptio

The article implies that this new one uses an IR image rather than just IR point sources, so can detect the shape of the aircraft among a cloud of decoy flares. Pretty simple and probably quite effective if true.

There's a similar story about a modern relative of Cheddar Man, this one going back 10000 years. Even more incredibly, the modern relative lives just down the road from where the ancient ancestor was found. https://www.indep
