It really makes more sense for actual math than Python deep learning. There isn't a lot of visualization and fancy symbols involved. The fascination with Jupyter notebooks is something I never got. You can't debug or make sense of

Like others said, subscription products are very profitable. The target demographic for this has disposable income and would see this as an investment. A lot of people will sign up and never use it. Don't forget that the alternative wa

Hot take, but the only real way to solve this identity problem is to take people's DNA. The only attack on that is to literally synthesize fake DNA/fake hair/fake saliva. Even then you can prompt randomly for DNA the way Twit

This doesn't solve the problem of identity. You still would need some way of differentiating the accounts with the bond, or else I can just sybil the system by having a lot of money and a really good way of impersonating people.

We're in a weird transition period where developers are being forced to do ops. People will wake up to the fact that this so-called automation was just changing one type of work into another. Eventually there will be jobs called "

Trust cannot be decentralized. The whole idea of blockchain/Bitcoin[1] was eliminating trust from a process that would have required trust (keeping track of a ledger of funds). A system that provides trust in a trustless way is as pa

Nix was a huge innovation in operating systems. The wider community has not caught up yet, but it will.

Backwards compatibility causes a lot of evil. I would prefer that breaking changes come with automated tools to migrate. Sometimes bad decisions get made, and we shouldn't have to carry the burden of that forever out of laziness/s

You don't actually have to invest in these new shiny ecosystems. It's just a choice you made. There are still people making a living on Fortran, C, C++03, Java <5, Angular. All of that still works on modern hardware and will fo

It's worth noting that the same thing can be had by doing objdump or stepping through code in gdb. Godbolt is very convenient though.

It's way better than IDA Pro. I have used the Pro version with the Hex-Rays decompiler. Ghidra is legitimately better. I wouldn't recommend IDA to anyone at this point because I don't see it having much of a future (sorry not

It looks intimidating, but there's not actually much to learn. You need to memorize a couple dozen common opcodes. Keep the Intel manual open and flip to the page of the opcode. Also the first few sections go into detail about paging,

I have barely used Visual Studio, so maybe you're right. I did use it a few times for C++, and the version of it from circa 2006 is what I learned with. Visual Studio is very good, especially the debugger, but honestly VS Code with the

Yes but the TPM can only generate its own RSA key. You can't take an existing private key and store it in the TPM.

Shoes are a Zahavian signal. It doesn't matter how comfortable or convenient the shoes are. Its primary purpose beyond protection of your feet is to prove you are with it . Same applies to iPhones and designer clothes.

IDEs are not going away. The next generation programming languages will have to be IDE-first. The syntax would have to be designed specifically to be amenable to autocompletion by ML language models. One day code will not even be authored i

It is very well designed. Probably the most well designed editor/IDE ever created. (This is coming from a long-time Emacs enthusiast who still uses it most of the time.) Everything is modular and pluggable, like the extension system, t

Docker is too general, too much of a Swiss army knife for this particular problem. The problem I am talking about is where a C++ program has all of its dependencies vendored into the source tree. When you run Make, everything including the

I was thinking about something like this for build systems. Everything in Docker is regular Linux. I get why Docker is so big for its use case as cloud deployments, but what I actually want from it is such a small piece of it. Hermetic, rep
