VB the ide was really good but VB the language was not. In particular it didn't support object orientation in any sensible way. While I am not crazy about object orientation in general, I think it is indispensable for UI development. I

I am a principal engineer too. In the last 5 months I have been working on a project using the latest LLMs. 5 years ago that project would have required 30 engineers. Now I am alone but need at least 5 more months to have an MVP. You are ju

If you are using build123d, probably the easiest way is to sketch an ellipse and revolve it.

I can barely keep up with one instance of Claude Code. In fact even that one sits iddle half the time as I test its output and try to explain what it did wrong. What are people programming that needs 10 agents?

Yes please I totally agree. Something big must be going on there. I once bought an item through an Instagram ad. For about a month I got fake updates about shipping. Then one day I get an email that itvwas delivered 2 days ago, complete wit

AI is making coding so cheap, you can now program a few versions of the API and choose what works better.

Not a member of the project but here is my take: You run the WireGuard app on your computer/phone, tap Connect, and it creates an encrypted tunnel to a small network box (the “FPGA gateway”) at your office or in the cloud. From then on

When I was in elementary school in the 70s in Albania, we had some older teachers who wrote z as ᵹ. I don't know where that came from, but it was not part of the official alphabet.

The 100x also is kind of meaningless. 100x compared to what? I can introduce a bug by being careless for 1 minute, discover it in my own tests and spend the next 2 days to figure it out. That's already 960x compared to the time it too

I see some very "tolerant" people are downvoting. You support the girl's right to support Hamas, but don't even want to hear from people who think differently.

15 years after MIT made the same switch from Scheme to Python. Since CS at MIT seems to be fine, so will CS at NEU.

Why do I remember The C Programming Language book by K&R explaining how to write a version of cdecl? I just checked the second edition of the book and my memory seems to be wrong.

I once implemented a logical expression evaluator to be used as filters on a search page. My boss tested it and filed a bug because he expected OR to have higher precedence than AND. I pointed him to a page with the rules and told him that

My daughter is a student in one of those elite schools. You are allowed to take one of those advanced classes in any year (i.e. Calculus as a freshman) but that doesn't mean that the school will teach it to you. If you take the class y

I meant speeds derived from previous position measurements. Using those speeds is not getting something from nothing. It means using previous measurements to estimate where the object might be now then combine that estimate with current mea

Kalman filters are used for changing entities. Say you have a moving object. You could measure (with some errors) its position every second and use that as an estimate of where it is. Or use your position measurements in combination with an

Seems this hosting company is a scam. Kosovo might be corrupted but it is the country with the highest approval of U.S. government. The FBI can investigate and arrest you in Kosovo just as easily as they can arrest you in Maine. Probably ev

Professors, of course, don't feel threatened by students so want them to be as good as possible. But in a company where I had the same pay and title as the AI researchers, just different fields of work, me applications, they research,

As somebody who was paid for many years to turn AI researchers' code into usable products, I have one piece of advice. If you want to become an AI researcher, don't fix their code. I did this in the hope that I eventually would ge

The SALT deduction cap definitely raised taxes for me and I wouldn't call myself any kind of rich. As a Massachusetts resident I took it for what it is, an attack on people that live in blue states. I am sure it gave D.T. a deep sadist

Short term one get can rid of test scores or GPA since they indeed seem to be correlated. But long term: 1. If we get rid of test scores, it would cause too much upward pressure on GPA which would make GPA less reliable. There are tens of t

Can you elaborate on how OpenCV is built on top of Eigen? From what I can google it seems that OpenCV can interoperate with Eigen but is not build on top of it.
