I assume that you incur the cost once and amortise it over the life of the photo/painting.

It sounds like the authors spent 10 years building a Twitter factory, and now they can produce a Twitter faster than Twitter could produce it "by hand".

It could be better to opt those articles out of the crawler. Unless that's more effort. If articles included the year and month in the URL prefix, I would disallow /201* instead.

It sounds like you'd be worrying about n-1 types of safety errors instead of n, which is arguably better.

My disappointment with WebGPU has been limited data type support. I wanted to write some compute stuff with it, but the limitation of not supporting a lot of integer sizes made it undesirable. Does anyone know if the spec is likely to be re

This reminds me of an interesting project when I was still a consultant. Our partner (audit + consultancy firm) sold the idea of a magical "analytical base table" which would consolidate the client's data in a single place fo

Out of curiousity, what then makes a difference between a data engineer and an ETL developer? > There is just so much potential variance depending on where you work and who you are, that it doesn't sit well with me to shoe-horn ever

I view data engineering as a hybrid of SQL and programming. I'd go as far as saying that it's a mixture of various disciplines. In the end it depends on what you'd be doing as a data engineer. My experience transitioning into

Their standard devkit is too large, their USB dongle has the problem of requiring to be connected to a computer, so I suppose it works better as a dongle than something you could mount on a breadboard. I tinker with embedded on Rust, and I

In the extreme, the have been politicians and other leaders who came in and decided to undo decisions of their predecessors for petty reasons. A memorable example being the US' 45th President. If this high cost is in the long run cheap

I've been embarrassed by a Copilot code snippet that I proofread to seem correct, but was incorrect due to some subtle comparison logic. I can only imagine the risks in professions that aren't dealing with logic that has a very fi

Question: do the implementation of single instructions compile to single instructions if targeting RISC-V with optimisations enabled? That would be really awesome if compilers realise what your code is doing and replace the implementations

Not to sound negative, it reads like the author quickly dismissed HA without a great reason so they could build their solution. There's a lot of home devices beyond ZigBee, with a large community supporting them. Beyond ZigBee, we will

I'm in South Africa and I'm able to use it. Not connected to a VPN, and I've just checked that my public IP is my static IP address. They announced that it's now available in 180+ countries in English.

I'm conflicted on this one. I have really good Sony ones, and whenever I wear them for even 30 minutes, when I take them off I feel worse. I don't know if it's all in my head and they objectively don't make it worse, how

For months or longer, there's been an edit war around Solana vs Ethereum, where mods (it appears deliberate) only allow negative content about the former. It felt petty that adults who've spent over a decade editing such a vast so

Mine turns on when it's on the charger and I'm compiling something that takes very long or otherwise running a lot of programs. Even then, it's still quiet enough for the person next to me to barely notice.

I got a beefy Ryzen 3000 personal desktop in 2020 when my 2014 laptop started giving in (noisy even with new thermal paste, lid broken). I can't stand the noise of the fans when it's next to me, it has a water cooler fan. I recent

I've had to be deliberate about what I do with embedded programming. I sat down to introspect, and realised that I was: - learning the inner workings of various electronics - learning #![no_std] Rust - learning about software standards

I think writing a language full-time is a given or necessity if you've been hired to work on software that uses it. Unless you've had prior experience and can continue tinkering with other things. It's cool that matklad'

One could ask whether halting trading of a stock is manipulation or not. Some risks arise mostly out of urgency, and not having countermeasures could have catastrophic results which otherwise would have been avoided by pausing the process.

The simpler parts of Rust feel like TypeScript, let's say as long as you're doing simple things as a start and don't worry about threading. Rust was probably also a lot easier to learn pre-async-await, because one would have
