Cool intro and visuals. Where it ends "how do we calculate the weights ?" is fairly simple. Start completely randomly and compare output to known truth. When it's incorrect, you beat the model up pretty badly and repeat agai

Agreed with the main message. ... but An incoming message to an IPv4 NAT router will not be forwarded to a LAN device unless it matches a known flow (typically continuation of a conversation, typically initiated by the LAN device, which is

Agreed with you. I've always told people all code "rusts" (not a language reference) - in multiple ways: the original author's mental model, the contributors, institutional knowledge, and the supporting ecosystem and dep

OP: the readme could really benefit from a section describing the underlying methodology, and comparing it to other approaches (Go channels, LMAX, etc...)

No it's intentional. The highlight is what I call a "known prefix" It's a hint to tell you the word starts with "s", but since you didn't narrow it down to "su..." or "sv..." it's

Aah - not sure why it stopped responding, sorry about that. I'll try to add some local state management so a refresh for a game doesn't lose progress.

I've always been a backend/systems kind of guy. For the frontend for this I used Vue.JS as a learning experience. Overall it was straightforward and quite pleasant. The hardest part was the mental process of giving up on server-s

I have a decade's worth of guess statistics per word. Unfortunately, I just converted it to a frontend-only app to eliminate hosting costs, so I have no good location to keep tracking these stats. Theoretically, "Oxford English Di

It's a random word each game (but the URL is shareable with a friend to play the same word). TBH I've had it up as-is for a decade as a classical web app, but just converted it to a frontend-only app to eliminate most hosting cost

As someone who has been designing, writing, and operating high-performance systems for decades, I can guarantee you that it does not boil down to "laziness". Everyone starts with the best of intentions. malloc() and free() pairs.

That's a lot of rules. Ask everyone to cement their thoughts in a computerized form ahead of the meeting. Bonus points if done immediately after the interview ends. It can be freeform, or discrete items, or a mix of both. It also act
