Without prediction, we wouldn't have goalies. A puck can pretty easily travel something like 30-40 m/s, and shots are regularly taken 4-5 meters from the net. Goalies have, what, 1/10th of a second to track and evaluate the s

Don't put secrets into things you dont have control over lol. ChatGPT is cool and all but I often feel people are too naive when using these tools, with little consideration as to how their inputs are used, if the output is copyright p

I've been bashing my head trying to create some sort of typed pipe for a while, with a syntax matching Elixirs, to avoid having to create curried functions all the time. The farthest I've gotten is that I achieve typing, so long a

Is it normal for these suits to be so... salty? in their formulations. I've never read one before, but a lot of the wordings are pretty hilarious. > Carlsen, having solidifed his position as the "King of Chess", believes t

Unnecessarily hostile and bad-faith interpretation. We can be more respectful towards each other than that.

IMO the code runing in cars (and other types of vehicles) should be made available to inspection agencies, pref. written in languages that can make certain guarantees, or at the very least be required to be written in clear, legible manners

Not just zero physical evidence - zero evidence _at all_. Afaik it doesn't appear until Plato uses it, and he claims that its thousands of years old or something like that. That should reasonably have traces in other accounts through t

Not saying you're right or wrong - personally I like the palette but not the theme - but these comments give off a pretty arrogant attitude that I think is uncalled for.

Something I believe is overlooked that is relevant here is the effect of large volumes of feedback, even positive. Sara Chipps wrote about it in her blog post on Stack Overflow[1]. I don't believe we as people are desgined to handle fe

I use IKEA wireless stuff (which in turn use Zigbee) and, outside of a relatively slim range of products, they work great. Good quality stuff, easy to set up, and continue to work even if my internet cuts out.

This is a Hot Take (tm) that I havent fully considered so grains of salt etc, but boolean flags are in essence bad product type. Given a function create(entity, bool_a) we have a function that creates an entity and take a bool flag,

It's also not just a strip of cloth - it's a decent strip of cloth, fasteners, nuts, bolts, washers, something to fasten the seatbelt etc. Which isn't a lot and I think this is an unfortunate oversight, but I can see it bei

I don't know if or how it could be leveraged, but marking something as irrelevant is also providing information to the ad system. Even if that data is "Less of this, please".

"Crash" can mean a lot of things, and in Erlang, a crash occurs whenever your functions are unable to perform their task (for instance, there were no functions that match your input data), or when process calls time out. More obvi

One benefit of the "let it crash" mentality - provided the language and runtime has the right set of tools - is that you can focus on programming the happy path. Simplified example, but if part of your app is a parser, you can wri

There are some nice bits in here. tap() and then() are fairly minor, but very nice quality-of-life additions. The work on numerical, livebook, Mix.install etc are healthy steps to take. Nice work.

I'd say your unlikely to pick up the entirety of OTP in a few days, but agree that it should'nt be too daunting to train in it.

I'd say it's rather the other way around. Your infrastructure now solves what Erlang did 25 years ago. Not to argue your point, though.

What you're getting in return is improved UX and performance, albeit it is a more abstract and collective gain than discounts. You also get (unless you are a contributor, I guess) a very capable and transparent music editing software f

Imo the last part is a bit too dismissive. It's not too hard to imagine how telemetry from software can be used for ad targeting, or for more nefarious purposes, since the telemetry would have access to track info, including metadata.

Both yes and no imo. I strongly believe that they have good intentions and that the reception has been a bit in bad faith. I think it's a reasonable assumption to make, but as a user I'd want insight and granular choices, rather t
