The insight here is something like C++ might be more amenable to Co-Pilot help due to the sheer volume of C++ code out there. In essence, this might turn out to make C++ a lot more usable with AI Co-Pilots than something like Python (which

Huh. SAP/HANA single handedly raising the bar on large memory machines. It seems to support distributed computation but maybe the administrators just prefer to run a single gigantic box. SAP and it's ecosystem truly a tax on corp

Pluralsight seemed to be very .NET/Microsoft focused. As the developer winds shifted after from pure Microsoft stack, the value of their library seemed to have dropped quite a bit. Not surprising.

Making a unity / jumbo build work for a project with 10,000+ files and millions of lines of code is not simple at all. True, but the number of such large projects is tiny (< 100?) compared to the tens of thousands of other s

Is the recursive sum the best function to show multi-threading or GPU speedups? Seems unlikely. FWIW, i ported the python example to Julia and it ran in about 2.5 seconds the same as the C++ version. Pure python 3.12 took 183 seconds. f

It's true that PE firms cannot be trusted with a SaaS product. It is also true that most SaaS companies are not profitable for the service they provide at the revenue they derive. This reset, which we will see a lot of since the entire

It's drier than the second. Probably best start with second and catch-up on the C++20/23 topics later.

First thing to remember is C++ is very much a "live" language going through enhancements and the majority of the hardcore engineering still happens in C++ (real-time, AI, Machine Learning, High Performance Computing, CUDA etc..).

So, python is not slow if you don't use python and depend on C/C++. Got it. LOL.

Just waiting for someone to write a 5000 word essay on why they are moving from Rust to do data science stuff. Totally puzzled by everyone trying to get on to the Rust bandwagon on DS/DE, when being able to iterate and make changes fas

I think the poor performance (memory bloat) on Macs is probably the reason. Very loud complaints from a tiny segment (for Microsoft). The other is Slack users who think searching past content is way better. In my experience, and I'm on

No neurons are the equivalent of transistors. Synapses are the equivalent of connections between transistors. The total neurons are about 100 Billion but the connections are 100 Trillion. A neuron can have up to 10,000 synapses, while a tra

A good rule of thumb is anything in social sciences that was very popular 15 years ago has been debunked (as others are claiming here). Is there a definitive takedown somewhere that someone can link please? Curious which portions don't

Are we supposed to be outraged by this? 23% raise seems very reasonable given the average employee at the entire company is getting 7%. The raise is tied to external metrics so really not feeling any need to get agitated.

LOL, it's a very hard language to learn, despite Rust evangelists claiming it comes naturally to them since they were babies. I think you need to be very deep systems programmer (understand memory, lifetimes etc.) to be effective in Ru

It's Cal (not Carl) and he has essentially been writing the same book for the past decade. If you have read Deep Work you have read his next five books (including this one).
