The compiler can't read your intention. Emplace means "forward these arguments to the constructor", so it forwards those arguments to the constructor (in this case, vector<int>). With push back it would be caught by the

I wonder if they designed the APIs for vector, list, deque, etc together On deque it all feels fairly natural. Ruby's shift and unshift are cool, but I always struggle to remember the words

Zuck made a bet when they provisioned for reels to buy enough GPUs to be able to spin up another reels-sized service. Llama is probably just running on spare capacity (I mean, sure, they've kept increasing capex, but if they're wo

My point is that people are saying weird / shitty things about karpathy (a noted hacker), and that's to be expected because hn just does this. Comments are not predictive of future business success etc

I think you're imagining something like chess. In order for an ai chessbot to teach me chess as efficiently as possible, that bot is probably superhuman at chess. That's not necessarily the case. A good tutor can be more "cur

I'm not sure you're wrong about "apple watch as fashion" (my gut is to disagree), but it's worth noting that apple greatly increased the size of the watch market. That is to say: while they converted some existing w
