I wonder if these “objects” are being shot down due to political reasons or if something fundamental ha changed..?

CLRS does about 5 pages on linked lists. If you want more, my advice would be to implement one in your language of choice, then look at the API for the standard lib impl of a linke…

Enjoying the slides! Is there a small typo on slide 17? >Strategy: Keep as much of our 200GB/sec of bulk data off the NUMA fabric [as] possible

Eh, idk. We could have lisp, x-expressions, macros, and DSLs instead of most frameworks. We could even use lisp dialects to “write C” (eg Chicken Scheme). I do think a lot of frame…

Was reading through some C++ at work the other day and was like “why is this reference.. assigned to… copy constructor?… oh, yeah…” IMO it’s better (explicit) to see a call to `.cl…

Yeah, they’re tailored. I get ads for perf dev tools, compilers. I still get ads for vehicles months after buying one. I’ve only had one ad that was “eerie.” Coworkers were talking…

When I think about Linus’ lack of objection to Rust I immediately think about his vocal disdain for C++ When I learned rust I thought it felt more C-like than C++ to be honest. Now…

Wow. I can read Bloomberg articles for the low annual rate of $290/year for the first year, but after that the introductory offer expires and then I would only be charged $415/year…

Does that mean they don’t exist? Are the FAANG chip makers paying a lot more for engineering than in the asics space? Genuine questions, I have a growing interest in this (vast) sp…

Is it possible that the appetite-suppressing effects of coffee are at play here? I’ve read about the general health benefits of reducing calories and I wonder how big a factor that…

I’ve been taking vyvanse for the last few years. I was skeptical whether medication would “work” or even about what “work” would mean. I’ve seen other commenters relate adhd meds t…

Rust requires more of an initial investment than Node/Java, but IMO the ROI is higher or at least more consistent. Others have noted “correctness” as a reason for using Rust, this …

I’d suggest reading from the foreword and working through chapters 1-3. You’ll know if you want to finish by then. It’s a really fun read; it’s an exercise in thinking differently.…

I think it stands for _resource description framework_, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resource_Description_Framework

> 80% of people buying an f150 or similar never have been and never will be building contractors or lumberjacks Yeah, I feel this. I used to have a big work truck, but it was for w…

> it takes a special kind of new hire Yeah, it does. I’ve had a good amount of experience doing this. You need to have tact and a kind of humbleness that can be difficult to mainta…

I’ve developed a reading habit over the past 18 months or so. I’m always reading. Books, I enjoy reading books. Books are less distracting. I read with a pencil and annotate notes,…

Oh wow. I love SICP. I still pick it up every now and then—just for the poetry. The intro CS course I had taught from SICP (but the course was python, & scheme, & sql). I wasn’t so…

Prioritize what you want to do/work on. Too tired at 11pm? Splice that time onto the front of your day to get a couple hours in before work. Put yourself first. People find/make ti…

Oof yeah. I really like what’s Tesla is doing. I love my model y, but I definitely skipped out on “$10k more for FSD.” It’s just not there yet. Do I think people need to step in an…
