This is a must for AR/VR glasses. I thought that all android devices had this capability. Was disappointed to find out otherwise. I had to use a laptop to use the glasses on a plan…

Worker should really adopt Apache Arrow, which has a much bigger ecosystem. https://github.com/apache/arrow

LI is an interesting data source for the pulse of economy (at least in my echo chamber :). I don't even need to log in, just a quick glance in my LI email folder would tell a lot.

colima pretty much solves dev experience for docker and k8s on mac, esp. for apple silicons (m1/m2), where you can build multi-arch containers with ease. Some interesting caveats: …

55+ vegan OMAD here. Experienced positive recomposition (17% BF to 11%) according to the DEXA scans: grew muscle and lost fat over the same period (1 year) with the same diet (no b…

The original git approach is still the best, which I've been using for years: # source this to clone the .files repo and setup the command #git clone --bare https:// @bitbucket.org…

No, `dirname` is correct. The goal of `ln -s dirname/ linkname` is that even if you accidentally do `cp file linkname` (note without slash) when dirname is gone, it will error out.…

The content needs major update to incorporate recent research on: - Macro nutrients (protein, carbs, fat) - Micro nutrients (vitamins and minerals, important if you do IF) - Interm…

BTW, plantuml has been storing the source uml dsl in the metadata of generated png for years. cf. https://plantuml.com/command-line#ce21470ab49d1d19

Fasted for 3 days and muscle mass increased by 2.4kg. Yeah, right.

Just like various chat bot incarnations, it's reasonably OK at generating generic sentences without real understanding. I tried several attempts with this leading fragment: "Is bor…

3. "What's the best way to specify computation?" covered by programming language and compiler books.

Running 10k containers on one machine is totally realistic though. This is just yet another language vm (e.g. jvm) isolation all over again.

Hey OP, are you still looking? My company (a well funded AI startup with SV office) is definitely looking for eng roles from senior IC to VPE. PM if you're serious (email in profil…

To disable this class of exploits (bugs in unprivileged bpf) without installing a new kernel: echo 1 | sudo tee /proc/sys/kernel/unprivileged_bpf_disabled

TLDR: two side-channel info leak attacks on CPUs: Meltdown that appears to affect Intel and latest ARM64 (Cortex-A75), and Spectre that was shown to affect Intel, older AMD and ARM…

Chronos is just an example. There're many bugs in Mesos that don't get fixed for months/years. Mesos core is legacy (pre 11) C++ code nobody wants to maintain.

FTFA: "We’d previously been using Chronos (with Mesos) as a cron job scheduling system, but it was no longer meeting our reliability requirements and it’s mostly unmaintained (1 co…

I'd expect better write up from Daniel. std::unordered_set is implemented with chained buckets, which incurs extra memory references. Cursory google revealed that an open addressin…

Who has used both Airflow and Spinnaker? Feedbacks?

This is obviously data dependent. I suspect that the advantage of human is much higher in colloquial content vs written (esp. news) content. "Universal Adversarial Perturbations"[1…

These NMTs seem tragically bad at translating simple straightforward Chinese e.g.: 我要下班了。下班了再说。 Google: I have to get off work. Off to say. OpenNMT: I am going to work. After work,…

1. WordNet 2. ImageNet 3. SyntaxNet ... n. SkyNet

Hope this give google enough kick in the butt to improve mixed language voice to text. My google voice inbox is full of hilarious examples...

Yay, I'm going to put "FAA registered pilot" in my profiles :)
