The fact that they've started promoting using the Caveman mode tells me that the unlimited usage policy is taking its toll.

How is Tenstorrent h/w more general purpose than NVIDIA chips? TT hardware is only good for matmuls and some elementwise operations, and plain sucks for anything else. Their software is abysmal.

I was recently trying to solve a similar problem but on desktop platforms. I don't want to depend on LaTeX, but I'd like to be able to generate equation images inside a C++ desktop application. I tried to make MathJax run via Quic

It's definitely AI generated, that picture makes no sense.

The functionality that I am personally interested in from a binary parsing framework like Kaitai is generating an encoder implementation in addition to a decoder one. In other words, given a description of a binary format, I would like to b

The only requirement placed on the “moved out” variable is that you should be able to call its destructor. Which means that it has to be in a valid but unspecified state. So it's fine to access such a variable, so long as you don'

I recently decided to give terminal multiplexer a try. I first used tmux for a couple of weeks and then discovered zellij. It felt much more user-friendly, but I don't know how much I am missing out in terms of useful features compared

I'm genuinely curious which of those items you consider as sucky and why. I am asking because I've recently been moved from a C++ to a JS team at my current workplace, and now I am exposed to this wide range of new tools which are

That's what I did when I recently came across the same model. Here's my CPU-based implementation (in Rust): https://github.com/mindv0rtex/physarum

Does anyone have a fallback solution for such situations? WhatsApp, Telegram, Discord, Zulip, something else?

Not mentioned in the article, the ELL format is very efficient for banded matrices.

I really enjoy using Rust for personal side projects. It made me a better C++ developer. I'm excited about stabilized const generics to be able to speed up my linear algebra code. This issue though prevents me from recommending Rust fo

That's the level of Rust I wish there were more learning materials about.

Just my anecdata. We live in Maryland, in a middle-class suburb. I have 3 kids and a SAH wife. We're doing OK, saving for 401k, driving two cars, paying cash for house maintenance and renovations. Yeah, we don't travel much, but t

I agree. The talks were very light on content. This is was my first RustConf and I guess my expectations of PL conferences were mostly shaped by CppCon, which is overwhelming in the exactly opposite way.

How does this format compare to HDF5, which is common amount scientific developers? Are they meant for a similar use case or not?

Is there a meaningful help that a Rust beginner can provide here?

I hope Rust adds the major anticipated features (GATs, const generics, specialization) soon, or alternatively decides to not implement them altogether. I'm a rather new Rust developer, but still I very quickly ran into the issue of nee

Funny, today's when I finally decided to start learning Nim. I do C++ with CUDA and Python on top for work. Having looked at the Arraymancer lib, I became interested in the language. Between its outstanding meta programming features an

As someone who just recently started learning Rust, I'd love to see a book like this that uses it as the implementation language instead.
