Fair point, then you could claim it's similar to this DB with its reliance on Faiss. Despite that, Chroma at this point is more feature rich. I was mostly referring to this https:/…

I fail to understand why I should use it over a different embedded vector DB like LanceDB or Chroma. Both are written in more performant languages, have a simple API with a lot of …

While not identical in functionality, I highly recommend Keka: https://www.keka.io there's even an iOS app

Interesting to see, as I still encounter these banners from time to time. I also have Wipr Extra enabled. Apologies for the mistake

Wipr is great, but they're a separate thing. Wipr does not remove the nagging cookie requests

SwiftData integration (and notably the Observable macro) seems like a huge step in the right direction for it. The problem we’ve found is that integrating SwiftUI in existing UIKit…

It is solvable by making the hard decision to move to Python 4 with no backward compatibility. The two core issues imo in Python are the GIL and the environment hell and both simpl…

Admittedly I don’t have experience contributing to FOSS projects (yet), but like many companies we use the feature branch workflow, and have minimal conflicts; both on tasks and in…

I don't live in the US. We have groups for uni, the tech sector (in general, kind of like /r/programming in a way), ML&DL, dating, sales (alongside Facebook Marketplace). We also h…

It is, and it’s even more popular than reddit in my local communities. The problem is the lack of anonymity

Definitely, haven’t paid an electric bill since the installation, even during the winter

You can essentially already do that. I live in a place basking with sun most of the year, and have 22k of panels with a 15kw inverter (max allowed before being considered commercia…

Glad to see technology is finally here for it

The most surprising part is ML being an elective course in 2016. ML is mandatory in my university, but DL is elective

My mother has an Android phone, and she’s not really tech savvy. Her notifications are absolutely bombarded with garbage from various websites, and her lock screen displays ads. I’…

This gets brought up every time the topic shows up but https://www.nand2tetris.org is a course that abstracts how a computer works, and is worth checking out

Conversely, I was applying to Meta and have made it to the final stage. The interview was held with the head PE in the country. Both him and all preceding interviews clearly signal…

Google and abandoning things, name a more iconic duo

Its only killer feature to me is that websites are designed and tested with a Chromium-first attitude. As a regular FF user I might stumble upon a website that’s quite buggy or str…

Which retains the high barrier of entry to Linux. Linux will never be mainstream as long as itself and the community primarily embrace tech savvies and nobody else

On one hand, I definitely agree. On the other, my issue is that motherboards are already one of the least reliable components in your PC, and introducing even more complications to…

From what I know, reddit is not entirely to blame on its own on this. Apple's policy only lets the first party app open certain domains, like YouTube (please correct me if I'm mist…

Except they already do. Also, AMD announced SmartShift ("shifts power inside your laptop for the optimal performance for a given task") support for Linux a couple of days ago. They…
