That is not what the text is arguing for and it has many good ideas, dropping the abstractions but keeping the test harness is one of them. I've worked on many aspect of programmin…

Reminds me of the abiogenic petroleum: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abiogenic_petroleum_origin

Alright my bad I did not find any info about this, but still they are no longer mentioned as a sponsor.

I love Bun & Zig and this feels a bit like my parent are getting a divorce. I thought it was a bit strange that Bun did not sponsor the Zig foundation while others much smaller com…

Let management argue there case, don't do it for them.

Man am I getting tired of these articles and we can do without this neurotic melancholic whining. Maybe it is the title of the article that triggered me, but it reminded me of hear…

Interesting, I did not know that colors-of-noice was related to this, what you say sounds conceptually very similar to how Maxwell's demon connects thermodynamics to information th…

No, it is a hypothesis I formulated here after reading the article. I did a quick check on google scholar but I didn't hit any result. The more interesting question is, if true, wh…

Maybe also heap fragmentation

TS returns a tree with nodes, you walk the nodes with a visitor pattern. I've experimented with using tree-sitter queries for this, but for now not found this to be easier. Every s…

Challenge accepted, but no way I can finish this in 7 days even with a head start of a few months.

Polders have personhood in some jurisdictions. The government reclaimed the land from the sea, sold it to multiple people, levies taxes on them and now the dykes need to be maintai…

Imagine if you spent those years building something else.

After coming down from the shock of learning there are people like you I was even more amazed that one of the founding engineers of Pixar, and a giant in computer graphics, also ha…

From the paper: Structured State Space Models and Mamba. Models like Mamba [Gu and Dao, 2023] can be in- terpreted within GWO as employing a sophisticated Path, Shape, and Weight. …

> The irony, of course, is that if you've read this far, it may mean you’ve already mastered a rare skill: sustained attention in a world of distraction. No, sorry I read the first…

Wow there is so much spacing after the "of" that I read it as "U.S. Department of space war"

Not clear from the article but a reasonable presumption for sure.

Ok this is worrisome news, but from what I could gather from the article this a novel technique with no historic data. Why can't this be something that the Southern Ocean does?

Ok, sum types and product types
