Noctalia will soon release v5, which is a complete rewrite in C++, which makes it even more appealing if you care about the performance.

I would hope most people do. It's in pretty much every high school curriculum, isn't it?

I'm not talking specifically about SpaceX, although historically the cost of their rockets have been much lower than NASA. I'm being much more general. The public sector doesn't have the same incentives that private companies

NASA just splurges money. The private sector is far better when it comes to money.

This is the first time I read that someone uses an acronym for ragebait purposes. The acronym "RL" is very well known. Dwarkesh's podcast is mostly AI related, so it's not a surprise that he will freely use acronyms. I t

What was your experience like in school and university? Have you come across people who you thought were at a similar level intelectually as you?

Do you have any other family members with very high IQs?

I disagree with you. I think the impact of AI on society in the long term is going to be massive, and such investments are necessary. If we look at the past century, technology has had (in my opinion) and incredibly positive impact on socie

As someone who is interested in getting more serious with Rust, could you explain the essence of how you should always approach organizing code in Rust as to minimize refactors as the code grows?

That's interesting. For me it takes 30 minutes, give or take, to start to feel sleepy, and I'm also a night owl :-)

Not OP, but I've been using melatonin every night, no exception, and it's been very helpful. I use a much lower dose (between 0.3mg and 0.5mg), and it's worked completely fine, so I would suggest that you start very low and o

Once we have AI-based language servers, which will, at some point in the future, be able to track entire repositories, I think maintaining projects will actually be far easier than right now.

> like what's it doing differently, is it just a matter of more training data or is there something more going on Well, the model doesn't start with "GPT", so maybe they have come up with something better.

Damn, that looks like a big jump.

It's common (at least nowadays, in my experience) in English to omit the verb or part of it in headlines.

Entrust makes a ton of revenue from hardware-related products (for example, printing ID cards), so it is far from the end.

Could you expand a little bit on what the "robust requirements engineering process" was like on that one team?

I think that's what they are trying to achieve with Mojo.

What does the tech stack look like?

This is the answer. I have only read bits from this book, but it seems very good for what OP is looking for.

IMO, Go is a mediocre language with great tooling and a great company behind it, and it turns out ultimately if you don't have the latter, the former is irrelevant.

Writing good code doesn't necessarily take more effort than writing bad code; in fact, my experience tells me otherwise. Teams that write good code iterate faster.

This mentality is how you end up inheriting terrible codebases.

That's a worst case. The vast majority of the time I don't touch anything. I was just trying to point out that once you have a stable config that works out for you, there is no need to constantly change it.
