Just because there arepeople who type slow doesnt invalidate the point that typing has a much higher speed ceiling. It's like saying well cars can go slower than some people who walk. So we may as well walk everywhere.

Buggy games have destroyed franchises. Gothic 3 being a prime example. Contrary to the memes skyrim is not even close to the worst offenders in terms of bugs. Besides bad code does not only lead to bugs. It can lead to bad gameplay, bad per

Are you implying the only differentiator between good and bad developers is the aesthetic of the code itself? And not the actual computation the code does? Wild take honestly.

But don't bad gameplay programmers implement gameplay badly? If that is truly the state of the industry that explains all the modern games with extremely mushy controls.

This is old news. AMD was this in their CPUs years ago.

I expect the degraded critical path will most likely be worse than a bit of die area. On modern processes you have A LOT of transistors to play with.

Possible but the problem statement is generally way too large to throw into a SAT solver. You can do local problems with SAT though.

It is of course the lowest bar. The main point is that the lowest bar in Rust is already a really a high bar compared to go lowest bar.

I agree, this is why you need to tell students a realistic outlook. And of these two I believe Wozniak is in fantasy land and Schmidt is closer to reality.

TBH this is also how I feel. There is no way to put the AI genie back in the bottle. There will be sweeping changes in society because of it. Fighting against it is seems like a fools errand imo.

> The extent of misery and destruction is directly proportional to the level of technological advancements. By statistics of war, poverty rates etc this is trivially false. I think you are really, really underestimating how hard life was

This is really not an acceptable reply. How about actually engaging with the point the commenter made instead of stamping your foot and throwing a tantrum.

What you are describing is implementation defined behavior. Using that is perfectly safe and reasonable. Undefined means this programs is malformed.

I think he is saying that if you are against AI you are against progress and so "America will no longer be the country that ambitious people want to come to". I don't think there was a point there about immigration being some

Yeah, that fails for even moderately complex models...

How can I convert openSCAD models to true STEP files? As in no meshes. I Literally have wanted that for years.

This was 20 years ago from what I can find. Beside that Linux now is a vastly different codebase than it was 20 years ago. That effort also did not compile Linux unmodified, it required several changes: https://bellard.org/t

Well then as you say a 10-50KLOC C compiler is workable. Could you show me the C compiler that does manage to compile a modern Linux kernel that is of that size?
140.
by rowanG077 5mo ago
The compiler that claude made went way beyond workable. It could compile the full linux kernel afaik. That is much further even beyond standard C.

Optimization algorithms. The build in automatic differentiation is great!.

It's fast for sure. But not 5 years of dev time compressed into 30 days fast.

Futhark is pretty great! And I have to say that the maintainer is insanely quick. It has happened on more than one occasion that I reported a bug and it's solved within the day. I have been using Futhark in prod for two years now and n

If you are going to be pedantic, at least be fully pedantic.

That's after you have installed their entire build infra + dependencies. They ship their own cargo subcommand.

This is definitely not just a lib. This compiles rust to CUDA. If you call a full on compiler stack a lib, everything may as well be a lib.

by rowanG077 5mo ago
Personally I really don't want new GPU languages that do not have AD as a first class citizen. I mean rust is an improvement over C++ CUDA but still.

I'm very surprised you expect any formal education to teach any specific pricing structure. You teach how to evaluate solutions for their price impact. No one was claiming any curriculum includes AWS's resource pricing structure.
