That send me down memory lane... My favourite technique for solving the Rubiks Cube involved orienting the edges in the first step (resp. with a lot experience possibly on-the-fly). I believe it was called the ZZ method or something like th

Kagi appearently had a project "expertGPT" (contrast to FastGPT). Does anybody know what happened to that one? On a side note, there is now a - to my best knowledge - completely unrelated product "ExpertGPT" from some to

Best vim cheatsheet I have seen so far. OTOH I haven't looked at one in a while, and back then my understanding of vim may have been insufficient to appreciate other lists.

I am polish, but was raised in germany. I can confirm the observation about eastern europe, at least regarding poland. Man are man, and Woman are Woman. In general, (non-trans, non-homo and somewhat binary people) seem to have a healthier r

My assumption is that @chubot ment that malloc'ing each time you need some memory has been bad practise ever since. Mostly, pre-allocating stuff for whatever you need is the way to go, but that is not far away from writing general purp

Once again, "The only reason I do not take my medications is that I can not afford it." seems like a thrid world country thing to say, while you're most likely from USA. It is absolutely crazy to me that you do not have publi

I agree with the intention of this comment. However, "fog of war" usually refers to the situation the fighting soldiers and commanders are in, not to the situation the ordinary population. It refers to the fact, that the soldiers

Using a different then my own true reasoning is completely normal, and everybody does this. One adjust your reasing to the understanding of the other person for example. Moreover, there is like a miles wide gab between rhetoric and manipula

This surprisingly remind me of the last to birthday parties I organized for myself. Unexpectedly I managed to get much more people together than I expected. Simply by actually trying to ask as many people as possible. I was really happy abo

If the whole script is run with sudo, then all parts of the script that wouldn't have needed suddenly become dangerous.

I really appreciate the reply and found another no-option. I would like to do something less... "abstract". I would definitly agree that crypto has meaningful usecases, but I guess it is not so easy to find those that are meaningf

Ask HN: What industries need bare metal hand tuned performance optimizations?

Exactly this bothers me a lot. I do bare metal performance optimizations, but I worry to never find a job outside of academia in that field. as I don't want to do high-frequency trading nor develop games.

Like what is this comment? Why do people with an extremely narrow view of some political topic or politcal movement like anarchism/communism/immigration policies/etc. start posting something that dismissive. Like as if they w

Well, this is not true. However, to be fair, most important use case of errno in my work is debugging in horrible code bases, trying to understand what has happened.

Yeah, Germany... For the current project I have so much overtime, needed to stop writting down my working hours officially and only record them off-the-record. This is with a mutual silent agreement with my employer to afterwards simply not

I assume the parent comment did not make fun of nushell advertizing this, but instead about the rust community advertizing itself all the time.

I do generally want a fixed commit. I often want to improve the code in the submodule possibly (voluntarily or accidently) introducing breaking changes without worrying about breaking repos that contain it as submodule.

Technically, this is true, but most C++ programmers are very reluctant to use macros except for stuff like include guards or stuff like NDEBUG. The reason is mainly the many language construct of C++ cover most traditional use cases of macr

Oh, yes... This. Had a project like this not long ago. NaNs almost killed me. The code used complex numbers, and you know who their userbase is. Anyway, exact floating point comparisons made all of this possible. In the process my coworker

No they don't. As far as Test Driven Development is commonly understood, at least. TDD would be extremely stupid if the idea would fall flat on its face when tests can not cover the whole input.

Before Go I used to program mainly in C++ which is kind of the worst language in terms of simplicity, so I might be biased. I simply don't know any other simple languages. I have only C C++, Go, Matlab/Octave and Python to compare
