I think RC and clone are the way people begin to use Rust. While lots of criticism are against this usage for not idiomatic, it should be acceptable. Coming from Python, nodejs or Ruby, even RC and clone or stack based variables is still a

Let me start counting how many minutes it would take for someone to post a comment blasting this model for reasoning capabilities. For me LLM, is as useful as it is a word calculator, borrowing from Simon Wilson, a frequent poster here and

Does Mark Zuckerberg just look like he is in the healthiest stage of his life? Fit, less pale from late night overwork, smiles a lot more. He must be doing something right after let the Metaverse go.

I wanted to use ibis with Duck as the backend. But I am afraid the chicken and egg problem of using existing ML libraries defaulting to use pandas as the dataframe API. Does anyone have a workaround?

The Israeli military often cites that it is impossible to make a difference between Hamas militants and civilians. It reminds me of the VN war in which the VC often dressed as civilians to kill US military personnel. The US was condemned le
