Hi, in the last ~month I've learned a lot about ECS [1,2]. I'm currently developing a robotics simulator from scratch (python+raylib) and, due to lack of game dev experience I went…

with the amount of traction this has gotten... coming with a clear set of experiments even on arxiv paper would be of great help to showcase your improvements. And if they're easil…

Actively doing this. It indeed forces me to think things through, organize thoughts and speak them out. I open paint/miro to draw. It's good practice.

and with little data (i.e. <10Mb), this matters much less than accessibility and easy understanding of the data using a simple text editor or jq in the terminal + some filters.

it's skills first and then money and hardware for scale A more skilled person that understands all the underlying steps will always be more efficient in scaling up due to knowing w…

Can you append new columns to a file stored on disk without reading it all in mempey? Somehoe this is beyond parquet capabilities.

Yeah, but if you can do topologies based on latencies you may get some decent tradeoffs. For example with N=1M nodes each doing batch updates in a tree manner, i.e the all reduce i…

lossy encycopledia that can also do some short-term memory (RAG) things.

I've played years of KZ and HNS after years of playing competitive CS on local communities (old PGL in romania!). I got over 6k hours in steam CS1.6 + many more on "non-steam". Tha…

Tbh, the web won the application platform mostly because it's a standard. Everybody knows html, css and a little JS. On the other hand, for mobile apps, there is still a device-spe…

Mine is much more barebone: - one single machine - nginx proxy - many services on the same machine; some are internal, some are supposed to be public, are all accessible via the we…

the last point got me. How can you idiomatically do a read only request with complex filters? For me both PUT and POST are "writable" operations, while "GET" are assumed to be read…

vscode with the markdown plugin works really good. text on the left, render on the right pane example: https://imgur.com/9rjoMa2.png

At work we have a pretty big Python monorepo. The way we scale it is by having many standalone CLI mini apps ( about 80) atm with most of them outputting json/parquet in GCS or big…

I meant that they should be separate tools that can be piped together. For example: you have 1 directory of many files (1Gb in total) `zip out.zip dir/` This results in a single ou…

couldn't agree more! We need to separate and design modules as unitary as possible: - zip should ARCHIVE/COMPRESS, i.e. reduce the file size and create a single file from the file …

I think Open Weights is a better name for AI models that don't share the reproducible training scripts and data.

one answer is due to the fact that humans also do this with just 2 pretty bad cameras and a lot of offloading to the cortex. It also simplifies the stack a lot to have a single set…

what about this pattern? https://www.inngest.com/blog/python-errors-as-values I tried it once in an sqlite DB connector with some business logic and simply checking stuff like res:…

Been working on this tool for my PhD which involves training multi task vision models using various pre-trained models as inputs or pseudolabels in order to improve generalization.…

how does this compare to streamlit ?
