As a person that occasionally daytrips into Rust and Zig, I'd imagine some number of us are coming from higher level languages (JS/TS, Python, etc) as our daily drivers and interested in what performance we could get closer to the

Definitely makes sense that if they are a market leader for an extended period of time they would expect to trade sideways; my question is whether or not Tesla is expected to come out stronger as a growth company in the upcoming quarters (i

Valid. And I do think they'll continue to own the lion's share of total sales for a while. But is there any concern over their being down YOY for Q1 while other manufacturers are largely growing? Or is the expectation that it&#x27

By what metric(s)? Not being disingenuous, purely curious.

That's how societies evolve. If you want your "normies" to perpetuate or even eclipse your "non-normies" you need to give said normies the tools to actually want to propagate that into the future.

Is it the wrong response? If they hate a job there's actual value in assessing whether they need it, especially if they could live life in a different environment they would enjoy with things made by their own hands.

I don't think that really counts as a "picture from space" in common parlance, but I guess maybe a picture from Euclidean space?

How long should we wait after promotions before prompting to add logging back to the service?

Unsure if the implication is that Rust is poorly suited for web development or what.

I came here just to see if anyone else shared this same experience. HN did not disappoint.

The HTML and <pre> tag is your browser's doing; most browsers are configured to make raw data files easier to digest (FireFox does similar prettification for raw JSON files, for example). The actual data being sent over the netwo

This cuts so much deeper than it has any right to.

You say greed but I would wager that most people in the thread are not financially independent. If someone can't retire from needing money in perpetuity, is it really greed to want to move that needle from "no" closer to &quo

DirectFile makes it such that anyone with a simple tax situation (some W-2s, some dependents, etc) can easily file their federal taxes online. Free. Straight to the IRS. My only gripe with DirectFile is that it doesn't yet cover more c

Oh, definitely, and that does resolve a large class of the problems that people have with H1-B visas! However, it's often a non-trivial choice to go that route so it excludes the majority of companies that still want access to talent.

So you do bring up a very common line of thinking (and, I think, a common one that isn't expressed often in such topics). Firstly, you seem to be conflating H1-B with obtaining a foreign contractor. That's an accounting burden, of

Of course they do. It doesn't matter if it's independent self-study, a bootcamp, or a formal degree. The goal is to iteratively build on your knowledge, grasp the fundamentals, develop intuitions, and put yourself in a place to co

I'm actively trying to learn how to do exactly this, though I'm just getting started with FPGAs now so probably a very long range goal.

I'm not going to try and change your mind on Remake. I held similar opinions at one point in time and it took me reframing the game not as an attempt to reintroduce the original game, but rather as another spinoff in its franchise. I b

While I think this is a valid take for the term "platform" I do think that "Platform as a Service" implies that someone else is running the platform and I don't have to deal with the headache of managing it, I just

Valid! I think the disparity is that the article appears to be written for a fairly technical crowd but the expectations appear to come from what these particular models are marketing. Most that are fine-tuning LLMs or aware of LongRoPe for

This feels... a bit obvious to the point of being silly? It is fairly well-established that context windows are a general issue among LLMs due to SOTA context windows still being somewhere greater than linear. It's also fairly well-est
