Keep up the good work and thank you for sharing. I wasn't sold about the source level snapshot tests, they seemed clunky and not that universal. But, I am definitely giving snapit …

I have been tracking 5950x prices and anything over $300 seems unreasonable. And I think I'm just going to get a 7700x and a new MB and 32GB of RAM, it should be a $500-sh upgrade.…

Since everyone is sharing, I'm using bookmarklets daily, the main ones being 3x and 2x, which find the video element in the current page and speed it up. I also made some overlay g…

Another great post in the series. I've been trying to bootstrap my own deep learning framework in Rust for a while now. I'm still stuck at implementing the stuff on the CPU. But I'…

I'm vaguely familiar with Factor and hopefully not in process of reinventing it. I was planning to investigate this space just for fun. Most likely nothing will come out if it and …

Maybe I'm not using the proper FP function term. I don't mean functions as objects that you can store or pass around or higher order functions. Just take some arguments from stack,…

There's a twitch streamer(tsoding) doing a FORTH like language from first principles. I've watched a couple of episodes and went started my own. I learned a bit of arm64 assembly, …

Well, Microsoft became quite a big company off the OS and their business suite. Of course it will be hard to find corporate clients for a mobile os, but may be doable. But, you're …

You have fair points and much more experience than I have in this domain. Yeah, $5 even at a 1M users is probably not that much, having to maintain drivers, and as you mentioned se…

I was thinking not too long ago about how phones are missing an installable os with a clear business plan. There is the potential(given an unlocked bootloader), to use webusb to al…

By ecotypes i meant exotypes(see https://cs.stanford.edu/~zdevito/pldi083-devito.pdf )

Eyesore is a precise word for the local keyword, from what I see the variable names in scripts are usually short, and the local keyword seems to draw more attention than the variab…

Yep, it makes sense. With the popularity of Roblox with the young people, and it using Lua for scripting, Lua can see a renaissance of some sorts.

I will definitely give it a try. Even after many years of not using terralang I still cannot forget what a good of an idea it is. Nelua seems like a more pragmatic implementation o…

Bought the PDF after reading the free web version, the work definitely has a lot of love put into it and this has to be rewarded. I've skimmed the web version till the end, but tho…

You're right about Swift for Tensorflow. It is an interesting development. I have installed swift on Linux just to play with it. Was dissapointed to see that Swift for Tensorflow w…

You might be right, I seem to have confused the pytorch(and tf eager mode) differentiation approaches with numerical methods. I'm making a Pytorch inspired ML framework, and indeed…

AFAIK, It's mainly used for implementing gradient descent, which is used for training neural networks. Frameworks like pytorch, tensorflow, probably used back propagation to calcul…

The way I see it, this is what programmers do, they turns things into programs. A good example are hardware description languages, where hardware designers write programs, and at t…

Yes, my plan is to do it in Rust. I did start it in luajit first, because I thought that it will be a faster feedback loop. I created an OpenGL window, and set up nodemon to restar…

I've used it, it's very good. I've started my own programmable cad after using openscad, I just couldn't look at aliased lines and weird colors anymore, plus making complex models …

I'm a powershell user for about 7 years now, or more. Have a lot of bindings, helpers in my powershell profile, and use it everyday for work. That being said, I'll never use it on …

Geekbench M1 single threaded ~= 1720 M1 multi threaded ~= 7400 Ryzen 5900h single threaded = 1520 Ryzen 5900h multithreaded = 9325 Ryzen is consuming 45W, M1 is said to consume 13.…

The description says it's autograd + XLA. So I assumed it always compiles to GPUs via XLA. But, had a look in the code and jax has cublas and RoCm blas, and it looks like there is …

I've been playing with OpenCL lately. Is such a shame that the support is so spotty, and even Apple(who I think started it, probably as a CUDA alternative for their AMD cards), are…
