It's a nice article, but don't they run against Amdahl's law? I mean they're parsing JSON from some web api?

Most body of knowledge built from working with Linux and Windows can be wholly ignored when building the New Operating System. There is barely anything worth of salvaging in either of the 'operating systems' or their lessons learn

It is a military superpower; one shouldn't expect them to address their security in terms of charity and human rights. As for security of Europe, the status quo was already changed when they successfully took Crimea, and I think EU lea

I think one of Jung's comments was that we don't really know the performance benefits of UB in that blog post.

I believe there is a library that can generate type-state machines for you in Rust, ie. you don't have to code it by hand.

Immunocompromised subpopulation is so small (at least in my country), especially compared to unvaccinated (abt. 30%), that it should be fairly trivial to quarantine them, don't really see an issue here if we are restricting unvaccinate

The governments who enact the restrictions and the majority who support them are not acting entirely on arguments based on health. For example, origin of COVID is animal reservoir (bats) which makes a bunch of the restrictions illogical (th

I forgot (because I assume the original was a lab leak) that China's entire (believe it or not) story is that it was a bat leak instead. So .. some government actions do not seem justified if you believe it came from animal reservoir.

One should be able to still look at what South & East Asian states have done, I don't think Vietnam or South Korea have this problem of highly politicized scientific community. Don't know if they have confirmed animal reservoi

"but", Zotero is really neat if you use the plugins which make it just one-click-to-save it in your Zotero from browser. Hardly any overhead with that.

I fucking HATE the Instagram algorithm. Literally random order of stupid shit from 3-7 days instead of the newest releases. Whoever was in charge of this should get banned from programming or product design.

You have correctly deduced why AI research is just a paper factory.

There is also no specification for "AI".

How do you formally verify your neural networks and the like? Or is formal verification possible? Does this limit the areas where it can be applied?

I like them for modularity, message queues and asynchronous events. But you are correct, esp. last one.
