The oppressed outsider wiling to say the truth against all odds is a meme invented by hucksters like Weinstein so they can sell you their supplements/ads/patreon subscription. It has little basis in reality. (it's obviously t

This is heartbreaking to read. I don't know how people who's communities are going through this pain deal with it. I can barely read this article without getting emotional.

This is the kind of advice that applies perfectly to groups of people but is terrible advice for individuals.

It's hard for me to think of open source libraries that are developed and maintained by mega corporations that I actually prefer to use over libraries made by small indie developers. The only one that I can think of is pytorch, but tha

There's no ambiguity. He said it has 8 GDDR6 chips, resulting in a total of 16GB of RAM.

I don't think it's easy to describe in words. You actually have to be there. I've lived in a suburb of Toronto for most of my life (similar to a random American suburb), and when I went to Florence for the first time, I had a

I'm so extremely glad they got rid of the print statement. Was an ugly part of the language, and added keywords to python that didn't need to exist. I think they should get rid of the assert statement too and turn it into a builti

It must feel great to be a Python Core Developer. A 1% perf improvement in any part of the language translates to billions of CPU hours saved around the world.

If you don't actually examine the situation's complexity, then yes things can look pretty black and white, and wrong.

Ideally each analog device that simulates a neuron is equivalent to tens of thousands of digital transistors that simulate a logical neuron (in space-time for GPUs or CPUs and just space for neuromorphic asics) . This makes the trade-off mu

You can't drive a Tesla in "self-driving" mode in non-highway traffic. Solving Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Automated Lane Centering (ALC) on highway traffic are much easier tasks than what Waymo and Cruise are solving.

People literally have to get months of training to operate these machines because they are highly specialized, non intuitive and finnicky. Using medical instruments as an example of good software isn't a great idea

Weird to see you downvoted on a forum called "Hacker" News. Who would actually use repl.it to build apps as opposed to the traditional way of having your text editor + compilers installed on a machine you own? I think repl.it is g

I wish there was a tool that combined the information output of godbolt with the rest of repl.it features for C++. I would pay for such a tool.

This library reminds me a lot of the code I've seen from junior developers trying to make things "cool" by removing a few characters of typing in exchange for library abstractions that create headaches down the line. I think

This doesn't seem like HLS, more like a new HDL that's based on Rust. This has been done many times before with other functional languages (Clash, Chisel, Spinal, hardcaml and others). These projects never take off because hardwar
