It’s also been harder than ever for scientists in the non-AI space to get more HPC compute with AI data centers causing pricing of components to skyrocket and constraining supply from manufacturers. So there will certainly be a boon in the

Amusingly, some of the earliest AI research was using Lisp which beget AI winter. Now we’ve come full circle with LLMs that struggles to write valid Lisp. Almost poetic.

Just be prepared near the end for refinements. When I did mine, I had to do another 6 months of refinements near the end to help get the locking of my bite grip to be where it needs to be. I was otherwise expecting that day to be when I’d b

You may be thinking of the `frozenset()` built in or the third party Python module [frozendict]( https://pypi.org/project/frozendict/ )? Personally, I’ve been using a wrapper around `collections.namedtuple` as an un

The way Git computes diffs is by more or less storing all the source code in the .git directory as objects. At first glance it looks like a bunch of hashes, but tools can pull out source code from the objects tracked within the .git directo

Lossy compression vs lossless compression is the difference of whether you can get a 1:1 copy of the original data if you compress and then decompress it. A simple example of this is if you have 4 bits of data and have a compression algorit

Probably since you can embed it in other languages quite trivially. For instance, in C after about a dozen lines of code you can now pass around data into Lua and back to C and thus give you access to a scripting language with little fuss.

To play the devil's advocate: IANAL, but if I recall correctly part of having a trademark is having a legal obligation to enforce it, and if I'm reading the tweet correctly this is a name of a company and typically one cannot use

An analogy may help, imagine the website as a door. A website using HTTP is a normal door and using HTTPS is a door with a lock, where the keyring in this analogy are the trusted CAs by your browser. A website using HTTPS with an expired ce

If you enjoy public Unix systems, I’d highly advise taking a look at the Tildeverse community since they offer a wide array of them that all have their own niche. https://tildeverse.org

I feel part of your dilemma is that you are defining the problem using two scenarios that will appear the same to you without previous experience with it. Allow me to explain. Let’s suppose you have been assigned to do the task X and we wan
