That same format string is used in multiple places, and unfortunately I don't think the text engine they expose to us is smart enough to do the ordinal 1st 2nd 3rd thing. Edit: oh, we can do that. Changed experimentally.

As an administrator at Julia's discourse, I'd be really curious if this was the reason. Discourse's default "short date" format is super problematic. By default, they display something from 5 days ago as `Mar 20`

The feature I'm most excited about is the parallel — and automatic — precompilation. Combined with the iterative latency improvements, Julia 1.6 has far fewer coffee breaks.

Benefits are highly regional. Where I live, the current latest sunrise is 8:06 am on December 5. I can't imagine a sunrise after 9am being very fun.

Yeah, you (used to?) be able to do multi-room audio with the original Airplay, but it was only supported from Macs. iOS did not support it.

Lots of the sciml.ai packages and documentation use Weave — you can look there for some examples. Here's one: https://diffeq.sciml.ai/stable/tutorials/sde_example/

Or how about just waiting until it gets merged and officially adopted?

From that study: > Limitations: ... no assessment of whether masks could decrease disease transmission from mask wearers to others. This has always been the main motivation for mask wearing, but the study you cite didn't attempt to

Yeah, but this is a laptop chip at ~20W. Of course it's not going to compete with a 16-core 120W monster. Getting 1/4 of the performance with 1/4 of the (high perf) cores and 1/6 of the power is very impressive.

It's not just about protecting you, though. It's also about protecting our limited healthcare resources. Every year I get the flu shot to protect me, you, and our shared healthcare.

I'm not "free" to ignore stop signs, stop lights, and speed limits. They impact my freedom to drive as I'd wish -- because otherwise I might hurt you. I'm not "free" to start cooking commercially out of m

This is a good resource for thinking around limiting transmission risks: https://english.elpais.com/society/2020-10-28/a-room-a-bar-a...

This is why speed limits are prudent. This is why masks and gathering limits are prudent.

Some of the NaN-handling issues are unique, but the compiler availability itself is still a problem. https://twitter.com/StefanKarpinski/status/12929837172128931... Since then, GCC has stepped up with this out-of-

Which is likely why there are some "7 core" GPU M1 chips.

The proper shoe shouldn't reinforce bad running habits. If you got pushed that way by a one-on-one shoe fitting, you certainly did get "conned." As someone who has had only one professional running shoe fitting in my life, I

The chip image surprised me: where's the L3 cache? On previous generations, L3 cache was a significant amount of real estate. Is it no longer shared between cores?

Yes, that was this event.
