> no one is entitled to make a living through their own preferred means. Are they not entitled to try? You seem to use this to justify not allowing them a chance. Why are we entitled to their effort?

So they don't deserve trying? The same goes for pretty much every publishing endeavour: Success follows the power law, so what?

Thanks for the examples. I simply wasn't expecting the features you originally listed to require application support, I see they're more involved that I imagined.

Wero and Bizum mostly just associate phone numbers to IBANs and perform instant SEPA transfers underneath. The benefit is that you only need the other's phone number to send them money, usually already in your contact list, instead of

I was about to call out that the code is supposed to be C and not C++, but I double checked and I realised it actually says std::atomic<int>, not atomic_int!

As much as I agree with the intro, these examples aren't good and the overall article is just a veil for pushing LLM coding.

The C++ standard only ever uses the term "member function" for what other languages call "method", hence why it's pedantic to point it out.

Makes more sense to me that 4*n here means n+7, which fits the pattern and would make her stop at 12+7=19, one short of 20, because Anglosphere countries teach multiplication tables up to 12. (I definitely didn't get this until I read

Out of the most spoken romance languages, Spanish and Portuguese have distinct names up to 15, French and Italian up to 16, while Romanian does stop at 10. This suggests hexadecimal influence to me.

But AFAIK those aren't features of MLIR, but of lowering to existing MLIR dialects and running their passes. My genuine question is whether these passes provide any benefit before lowering, because otherwise a custom dialect doesn&#x

To be clear, "a few" qualified the chosen rooms that get procedurally connected for each stage. I'm confident the pools of premade rooms are rather large, although I certainly noticed some repetition back when I played.

MLIR dialects have to be lowered into the basic LLVM one eventually, don't they? Does MLIR add anything over a custom IR for host languages that aren't deficient at manipulating data structures?

It's the next co-opted buzzword after "democratize".

Nearly every website for papers about AI applied to graphics hangs my phone browser, so I'm assuming the answer's yes.

Dead Cells just arranges a few pre-designed rooms together for each stage, doesn't it?

Our programming languages are bad at specification and verification, so the next best thing is property-testing for modeling (e.g. Hypothesis for Python) or, for the reference implementations, extensive "expect"/snapshot test

I'll actually concede that, on a slower skim, some changes to the test suite and fixtures that first seemed suspicious to me indeed align with what those tests were doing previously, and I wish I could retract that comment. I still thi

It also modified many of the tests to make them pass in mischievous ways. You can't trust a test suite to catch regressions if the new version doesn't use the same test suite.
141.
by debugnik 4mo ago
I'm thinking regressions and broken tests. Bun is already known to segfault a lot and their existing tests were rather lackluster, the Rust port being just as unsafe would be the least of their problems.

Having seen some of the diffs, it's already going wrong in my view.

Codeberg is not a commercial product, they've got a mission to provide a forge for active FOSS contributors, not to increase conversion rates. Reducing friction would be nice, that much is good feedback, but their target user is probab

by debugnik 4mo ago
Not quite, Codeberg is for FOSS only. A full alternative to GitHub is self-hosting Forgejo until a good commercial deployment of it appears.

That's a lost battle even in the Rust community: Firefox's oxidation, Ferrous Systems, Redox, OxidOS, OxCaml (OCaml extensions partly inspired by Rust)… and every crate referencing oxidation in its name.

If you know its their first connection to a fresh VPS and assume they haven't used a web-based display to set up anything yet, you just need to guess their install image, which is probably off-the-shelf.

Clearly I.

Literally no one would ever say that simply for editing the LLMisms away.

> X++ I was very deep into .NET until recently but somehow I didn't know this existed. Looks like C# with extra Linq-to-SQL syntax; I guess it's a DSL made with Roslyn for ERP jobs? I wonder how they picked the name.
