That’s is a really nice quote and basically the reason why I don’t feel too bad about Trumps fake news claims. Anyone competent in any subject area reads wildly inaccurate articles all the time.

There a lot of asset packs available for adobe illustrator. It would surprise me if there weren’t biomedical asset packs available. In fact in all likelihood this piece of software probably uses assets created in illustrator. I agree that t

Plasma physics I guess, plus magneto hydrodynamics, plus GR for really heavy stars.

Given that adobe creative cloud subscriptions are something like ~30 euro a month, and adobe illustrator is far better than this program it seems like it is a totally overpriced product

Chisel was used to do Google‘s Coral TPU, although most likely they used commercial simulators as backend.

For me it is Miniconda + a list of package requirements. Then you can just create an environment for each project and install new dependencies as you go.

You don’t have to use a virtual base class. You can implement interfaces statically by passing in the implementation as a template parameter.

Life is not fair, by the time you are six the number of distinct words you have heard varies drastically depending on your parents socio-economic status and education. The answer should be to extend the SAT with an IQ test, those are robust

Do you have recommendations for places in Europe to apply to?

Fun fact: The mossad ran a job ad on facebook a while ago, which involved a sequence of riddles. First discover a server based on some random seeming sequence of characters on an image. Then you had to solve a number of programming puzzles.

I don't think static type checking is a matter of tooling, getting Julia to perform well amounts to either a lot of trust in the compiler (is static type inference for the Julia type system even possible?) or manual type annotations as

Spiegel is not really credible, they’ve published a large number of completely fabricated stories. If they can’t see through the deception of one of their reporters there is no way they can make sense of misinformation by more competent adv

They are by and large not Lutheran or Catholic Christians though, but belong to one sect or another.

Which is why they were forced out of Europe in the first place.

Unfortunately most of the tools used in the EDA industry are proprietary and stuck in the 90s. So it is both expensive and pretty painful to use them, although after a while a kind of Stockholm syndrome sets in. In other words you really ne

Well from my point of view, the largest advantage that Swift has over Julia is that it has a pretty nice static type system. If you look at what they did with the Differentiable protocol, then this is precisely what you want from a type sys

Julia compares very unfavourably to both Python and Swift: Slow startup time (unpredictable JIT compiler lag), terrible error messages and stack traces, duck typing misrepresented as type checking. I've tried using it for what it is me

I would say most of the examples you mentioned are actually examples of well implemented libraries, with well named methods and abstractions, rather than DSLs. If you want to imply that a good large codebase is similarly structured into lib

I think you are misunderstanding the linked code. The imaginary type in the Go case is not build in.

Basically creative people by and large never subscribed to the idea that they should give away their creativity for free. So all the talented designers are employed and happily working on paid projects, especially less established ones get

Pretty sure the NSA can access the IME if they want to. Remote surveillance is build into mobile communication standards as well.

Have you read any of these reports? Are you sure they are truly necessary? There have been written reports on the human rights situation of Woman all over the world since the 70s. Do you think those reports contributed to anything? Their fo

Use pybind11 super easy to get startet with and reasonably easy to automate with libclang if your C++ API is simple.

I feel the same way. Although in my case it is also due to age. I‘ve lost patience with the linux ecosystem a long time ago, it’s all fun and games when you are in control, but being forced to use a Linux cluster or custom Debian installati

This becomes really interesting once some of the proprietary software such as libcuda can be used this way.

What good meta programming gives you is that a lot of language features can become library features. A good example of be Julia’s differential equation support or its XLA support. A language like Swift needs to modify its compiler to do sim

That’s what terminal programs do after all, so coming from text based applications it is natural. Personally I would prefer that if I openend an image file on the terminal, the image viewer took over the window.

They will need those millions to cover for college tuition, medical bills and so on, presumably.
