    SPIR-V states its an int, float, vector n (where n It does not necessarily mean the hardware can do 4x4x64 floating point operations in a single subgroup operation, but at least th…

    I've been writing a language around recursion schemes! Insofar it's just a library for Lean, but I wish to one day release it as an array programming language. I'm submitting a the…

    As a meta-comment on the topic, something I have noticed is that there still exists confusion what it means to use theorem provers for projects -- the other day I read a tweet from…

    Another good tutorial: https://hoj-senna.github.io/ashen-aetna/ I used that to create my own Vulkan compute loader https://github.com/rivi-lang/rivi-loader

    Anecdote, but I recall my friend saying he worked on freelancing assets to some train game and showed me some pictures of the said game. Unless there are more of these in existence…

    I have this weird thing about a birthday -- for some reason, I was assigned a different birth date in NHS records in the UK compared to the one I have in my native Finland. I want …

    Kiitos! My level is graduate, but part of the challenge with category theory is that some of the terms are quite unsuggestive. I feel that after seeing enough examples, I can start…

    Thanks for the links! The first book seems very good (I already own the latter).

    I think I dug my own grave by not being explicit that I thought S3 as a protocol and not the AWS product. :) To elaborate a bit further, the S3 layer makes sense once you self-host…

    As a programmer interested in category theory, I found this book a rather good balance between the abstract non-sense of CT and what I might actually use in programming. I wonder i…

    You can use https://ente.com/ (it's open-source). It also makes the seemingly much better decision of storing photos in S3.

    I'd presume it's quite common with NixOS. At least I don't have python linked to my environment. It might be different would I use the REPL, but I do not, so for me python is a pro…

    If I'd like to benchmark a new language / compile backend for LLM inference, what would be some good projects to try? If I'd start from tinygpt, what would make sense as the next s…

    I was able pull together a Halo 3 LAN party last year, although the "consoles" were Linux PCs and the game was the MCC edition (60fps instead 30). Split-screen was resurrected via …

    I got no particular book recommendation, but this book seems more about the numbers than relations -- maybe my PDF search is broken, but both 'type theory' and 'category theory' re…

    Speaking from the viewpoint of a whole operating system images, the main challenge is that while Nix allows you to create ephemeral environments, many people (myself included) have…

    Counterpoint: because most Finns think about Russian interference, the likelihood there's a tentative plan is high. Or you know, they call you. And in a country of 5m people, you c…

    It's not a monopoly. While FedEx, UPS, DHL, and the likes are not obliged by law to deliver mail, they will certainly do it if the price is good. Even Uber does it.

    On a related note, does anyone have references which would explain VRChat (and the culture around it)? I'm not quite certain if the models are primarily used for comedic effect, ro…
