    I feel like the intro to the article is understating the amount of work an individual pop artist puts into their work, even if it is supported by a team of engineers/writers/produc…

    This almost feels like satire.

    I'd like to add to your point that private torrent trackers have had invite tree systems for awhile, and usually if your invitee breaks a rule, you get in trouble as well, so you a…

    You realize homes are also private property right? You can have a shitty neighbor like the one described that is also enabled by the fact that they're in their own home. That doesn…

    XGBoost is just faster on the GPU, regardless of the file format. A sibling post also pointed out compression helping out on bandwidth.

    The cuDF interop in the roadmap [1] will be huge for my workloads. XGBoost has the fastest inference time on GPUs, so a fast path straight from these Vortex files to GPU memory see…

    This game is awesome. I have no other feedback other than I had a lot of fun.

    You'd be surprised. As long as your query is using Polars natives and not a UDF (which drops it down to Python), you may get good results.

    To the second footnote: you could utilize Polar's lazyframe API to do that cosine similarity in a streaming fashion for large files.

    For your wimsey library, using “pipe” to validate the contracts would seem to me to drastically slow down the Polars query because the UDF pushes the query out of Rust into Python.…

    Most people want unlimited for the convenience. You can very easily go to Fi or a budget carrier for more fine-grained plans like the ones you described. EDIT: typo

    Looking at your YC history, Rubbrband was initially meant to be "a way to train open-source Machine Learning models in just one line of code." I'm curious what this initial offerin…

    Gainax's financial troubles are well documented in an interview with Hideaki Anno, where he detailed how the company was pretty dysfunctional from the start. The company's presiden…

    On the Parquet topic, the Polars lazyframe workflow of operating on a Parquet file is so convenient for me when wrangling hundreds of millions of rows. You avoid loading the data i…

    Might've been overlooked, but "fastly" should probably be "quickly" on the main page.

    Do you think you'll add local file support in the future? Also, do you have any plans on making the reading of a source parallel? For example, connectorx uses an optional partition…

    I'll bite -- he discovered a vulnerability in a large company and responsibly disclosed it to them. How is that a felony? Why would you post a felony online?

    1. I use it on all of my servers. 2. FreeBSD offers a coherent base system with sane tools. pf is a godsend, and the ports collection is a good trade-off of configuration and simpl…

    so you're saying Valve should release software that, if a bug appears in this now unsupported Chrome version, is now susceptible to this bug that will literally never get fixed?

    Neat project. Any roadmap for cross-validation support (GridSearchCV and friends)?

    You know, I really like this idea. It's simple, straight-forward, the website loads, and its demographic is mostly everyone. Good stuff. One qualm is that two scrollbars show up, p…

    Reading the article, they analyze data they show on charts. You could make the same conclusions they're drawing by also looking at the charts. Sure it's a shameless plug, but it de…
