Is Jeevansathi really that different mechanically from a casual dating service? I don't think it has a literal swiping motion (many dating apps don't either) but I've heard complaints that modern matrimony apps are even too s

There exist hundreds of fly by night matchmaking apps, but most people can only name about half a dozen off hand.

I don't remember a map from the movie so I didn't know what to expect. Instantly I love this. I actually wish I could have this rather than street view in Google Maps.

Senior is the last word in use to describe myself as a developer, personally, and I think it's hard to overstate the current economical significance of this software niche. Granted that it IS a niche and nobody would recommend Mojo for

In the category of AI/HPC software Mojo aims to displace (which is my industry), I don't know many people who care that much about running Windows. The software I work on may only run as a Docker image or directly in a Linux/

You can implement it with templates and people do things like this often. In modern C++, it's even pretty easy to make this type of trick support `constexpr`.

It's not true that Nvidia doesn't care about CUDA backwards compatibility. The invention of TileIR was motivated entirely by that problem. GPU architectures are supported by the full tool suites for at least 10 years by CUDA (that

I don't think someone mentioned yet, but the (now defunct?) company Outrun Labs built a product Revery which seems almost exactly like what Jane Street has done (to my amateur eyes). OniVim was their only end user product afaik, built

I was able to upload hacky unpolished amateur game demos long before LLMs existed.

According to Apple, are there any tech companies in the galaxy who haven't stolen their trade secrets?

It would only be effective if the significance of this work is clear. They certainly felt this message needed to reach people, and that it did work makes it self evident they were probably right.

Personally I hated Publix when I lived in Florida and it made me homesick. I've never had so much food come with mold in the packaging than from Publix.

As much as I loved growing up with HEB, my fondest memories are of eating Central Market squid salad and brie in its playground/music venue backyard.

This seems like the "obvious" solution. Why was the rejected? EDIT: It appears to be an objection to GPU programming entirely.

I have been a ClearFlow user for over a year now. Generally I like it, but there absolutely are still common words that are hard to input consistently. The THEA cluster has given me no shortage of problems. Still a fan though.

A Pascal string has a leading length byte. Because that is one byte, the text can't exceed 255 characters.

by Conscat 3mo ago
Clang and GCC both let you use Pascal strings in C if you would like (with `\p`). But Pascal strings aren't that useful today because the maximum length is too short.

I feel like I've never gotten a compelling explanation for why Nastaliq is hard/unavailable. I'm not an expert on abjads, but it doesn't look harder to render then Naskh (and it self-evidently is possible since the fonts

I've got really comfy `just` scripts for generating Clang "intermediaries" in my CMake project. I can generate `.ii` files which get formatted and edited in a manner making them directly recompilable, along with `.ll`, `.bc`,

Obviously 5 year olds deserve access to safe abortions whether they are trans or cis. It's not safe to carry a pregnancy so young.

The point here is that these examples need to be updated because @cImport, the syntactic feature of Zig, is being deprecated and removed. That there exists an alternative isn't relevant.

These demos honestly look pretty good to me. But it is objectively true that this and similar technologies are used at huge scale by every leading autonomous vehicle manufacturer, so we can inductively reason that it _is_ good enough for th
