But that would be a shame to deprive 99.9% of your users from a colored output because some guy decided to remap red to green and black to blue.

IMHO, like many brand new technologies, the I hype is overhyped, but will still reduce to many useful things when the dust will have settled down. Just like we had no free ambient electricity in 1890, no flying cars in 1950, and not talking

More generally, heaps of old Soviet movies are available in HD (and often subtitled) on Mosfilm YT channel, putting you a yt-dlp away from a movies night. https://www.youtube.com/@Mosfilm_eng

Even for Europe. America had already been found by Vikings sailors a few centuries before Colombus, probably by Brittons sailors a few decades before. And I hardly believe that no one in Europe (let alone the world) ever put a slice of meat

1. Because they were not built with cooling by evaporation tower; easily remediable. 2. How do you think other thermal powerplants (gas, coal, ...) work? They, too, need to heat water and dispose of it afterwards, so that's definitely

Python does not take 1.7" to load pandas.

But then you need a surge in power to put it back from lo_temp to hi_temp when you get back home, I honestly don't know if it costs more or less than just maintaining it at hi_temp, and what are the orders of magnitude involved.

> it still should be 0.85 seconds per node No it's not, because I will not architecture my whole pipeline & program around Julia inability to start in maybe a second in a year or 1.7" now, I will just use another language.

by shakow 3y ago
No, because the program has to be run by slurm over several compute nodes, so it can't process them all at once.

by shakow 3y ago
So ~0.85"? Python is not compiled and start & load pandas (which is comparable to the libraries loaded in the article) in ~0.4" on my computer, and that's a notoriously slow language. If I were to use e.g. Rust with polar

And that's good, but not enough. 1.7 seconds just to load libraries is just too much.

Well, knowing that Apple is member of the Khronos group, it would be very surprising that they did not get involved with Vulkan.

Once again, you're reading a language war where there is none. Read the bloody article, it's all about the type system, not the language. Do you really expect the author to rewrite the Arduino stdlib for the sake of pjmlp's s

> None of it has anything to do with C++ or Rust. It was a decision of whomever wrote pin access libraries. Which is why the article title is ‶What is Type-level programming?″ and not ‶C++ suckz Rust r0x lol″

by shakow 3y ago
The article compares types-assisted programming to ‶raw″ programming. It dumps on the Arduino stdlib, not C++ itself. The example is probably in Rust simply because that's what the author is using.

I will probably not sound very sophisticated, but I would say I just dive in. E.g. If I want to learn about some historical period/character, I will just read books over books about it until my brain just naturally adsorb it. If I want
