The article could have been much shorter, but I agree. It's not just the web; bloated, slow, buggy, bad UX software is pervasive nowadays.

I wonder how this comes across to younger members of the hacker or scientific dev communities today. The tone, while perhaps aligned with older norms of bluntness, might now be seen as needlessly harsh or even toxic by some. It raises the q

Didn't know that, thanks! (According to this source, it's more ~12% females https://www.capeutservir.com/prenoms/prenom.php?q=Claude )

> Anthropic deliberately gave Claude a male name to buck the trend of female AI assistants (Siri, Alexa, etc). In France, the name Claude is given to males and females.

Funny how just looking at old Windows GUI styling instantly brings me back decades earlier, like listening to old music or looking at old photos.

Memories. Made my first website in 1998. In Notepad. I had fun with HTML but not many ideas about what I could create. So I learnt HTML by making, in HTML, an HTML tutorial website. I was 12.

As a French person, it's the first time I see this word. My brain can't help but parse the title as "death news".

Well, it's still slower than an actual suicide by an individual. But on a national scale, it's incredibly fast for sure; unprecedented, even.

So depressing. Like watching a slow-motion suicide of an entire country.

Perhaps a distinction should be made in the data between emergency and planned C-sections.

French doctors and the government have expressed concern over the rising mortality rate in recent years. Some worry that a contributing factor may be the relatively low rate of C-sections. Difficult labor is a major risk factor for neonatal

I ran a quick benchmark comparing Matplotlib and Datoviz on a simple interactive 2D scatter plot. In short, Datoviz is 20 to 2000 times faster. Screenshot: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/datoviz/data/master/

Strange that it works for me in various browsers while I'm logged out of GitHub. Might be a caching thing. Anyway, I reuploaded it elsewhere: https://imgur.com/Qc8r15I

Datoviz is much lighter and younger than VTK. It compiles in seconds, making it much faster to build, and it's easier to install and distribute. It has far fewer features since it focuses solely on rendering common primitives. For exam

After an email exchange with the lead author, I just rendered one of their demo datasets using my Datoviz GPU rendering library [1]. It looks nice and it's quite fast. I'm just rendering uniform triangles using standard 3D rasteri

Very exciting! Neural rendering finally coming to standard rasterizer engines.
