If need anything more complicated than simple $var substitution, it's time to use a general purpose scripting language with appropriate libraries to generate your data structure. A…

Why not buy a giant display panel and connect it to a computer that you fully control?

I don't seem to understand where OpenAI's market segment ends and Azure's begins.

This should give a second life to Test-Driven Development. One of the under-appreciated wisdoms of TDD is that there is a complexity asymmetry in many problems between finding a so…

There is a major flaw in placement of the EC2 instance in this diagram. Each EC2 instance has 1 or more Network Interfaces, where each Network Interface resides in 1 subnet and can…

I would rephrase this concern as "dconf is not a stable API" rather than "you are not supposed to do this". It's my computer, I am supposed to do whatever I want, but using unstabl…

There is also ECR Public Gallery, which mirrors many public images from DockerHub. https://gallery.ecr.aws

I find SQL very hard to use when the data schema and/or transformation graph needs to be dynamic (e.g. depends on the data itself). It's hard to make SQL dynamic even at build time…

Yeah, I am also struggling to interpret the metrics in this post positively. The 50% success rate is also best out of 3200 completions. For best out of 1 completion, the success ra…

In my recent job, I committed Jupyter notebooks to Git, and they tend to be giant JSON files. I had 10x SLOC of anyone who did not commit Jupyter notebooks.

If you had 3 days to find bottom 50% of devs to be fired, what would be your heuristic?

Sorry, you are right. I need another coffee today.

I have been working on an iOS/MacOS app that reminds me to stand up and/or take breaks at certain intervals. It's using the iPhone's camera and local computer vision to collect gro…

A lot of concerns are focusing on (person) -> (tiktok) -> (CCP) data flow. What about the reverse information flow? A foreign political party tuning the algorithm to affect public …

What if US government makes a (secret) deal with China to get data from them? It might seem unlikely today, but politics can change any time. Data markets can be fairly efficient. …

They use various clustering algorithms and heuristics, but it's true that it only gives a lower bound at best. For example: https://youtu.be/D_Eqz8_Jm2E

I keep getting tricked by ML referring to either the programming language or the subfield of AI.

Do users have incentive to document and share the connections, other than helping the community's long term goal? Absence of such incentive appears to be the reason that open-sourc…
