Can someone with more knowledge give me a software overview of what AMD is offering? Which SDKs do they offer that can do neural network inference and/or training? I'm just asking because I looked into this a while ago and felt a

I love teaching Scratch to kids. Some years ago, I used to do "CoderDojo", which is like a hobby club where kids can learn programming. Some kids go to soccer, others to art academy — and these kids learn programming. Super cool t

Am I the only one who sort of fears the day when Python loses the GIL? I don't think Python developers know what they’re asking for. I don't really trust complex multithreaded code in any language. Python, with its dynamic nature,

Being a European, I’d love to try this. Many businesses operate completely local. I think there is a market for a Europe-only cloud provider. How do I try this? Do they have a free tier?

Is it normal in the US for software developers to work 60-70 hour weeks? I understand this is the case in hip startup culture, but what about normal, boring companies? I work as an embedded software developer in Belgium, and here 40 hours i

This is kind of wishful thinking. I'm not saying you're wrong, but there's no real way to prove you're right. Sometimes open source wins, but not every time. The whole machine learning field is still too young to have a

To make the game more fun, think about letting the scenarios mess with each other. Right now, they kinda just happen on their own. But imagine if one user's scenario could throw a curveball into the next person's situation. Like,

I don't intend this as criticism at all, but it's quite amusing how routine iOS updates and new iPhone releases have become. I recall being in high school when the first iPhone was introduced, and the sheer novelty of smartphones

In Belgium, every citizen has access to a "digital vault" provided by the government, which is accessible using their ID card. Individuals can upload up to 1GB of documents into this vault. It's a well-designed system that en

Are we assuming that the current models aren't already engaging in this practice? In a world where ads dominate the internet and revenue flows from commercial interests, it's reasonable to assume that these models might already be

In Rust each crate can be compiled with a different edition. If we had this in C++ you could compile one file/module with C++11 and another with C++20. The compiler defaults could change for new code, but be kept the same for old code.

The code is full of one character variable names. Why do people do this? Even if I was programming on my own one-man project, I wouldn't do this. Why force yourself to keep all that context in your head? Do you still know what everythi

I'd do it in C, but that's just me. If this is a one-person project you can hold you code to a high standard. Clean standard C11 with all warnings turned on (-Wall Wextra Wpendantic Wconversion). Write unit tests. Run them with va

ML language != functional programming. There is more out there than Haskell. The article doesn't even mention OCaml, the second most popular ML-derived language on Github. Makes me suspect the article is not very well researched.

It's funny that you chose -Wall as an example because it is the exact opposite of what you are trying to say. -Wall is effectively frozen and new warnings are never added to it, in the name of backward compatibility.
