There’s only one great choice and that’s CLRS (“intro to algorithms”) - if you know this book & did the exercises, you can just skip college

Literally anywhere on Google. But it also makes sense when you think about ChromeOS & non-us aligned countries - what else are they gonna use?
HEY BUT DO YOU WANT TO USE A PASSCODE?? PASSCODE! PASSCODE! USE THE PASSCODE! -_-
Lung@lemmy.worldtoLobste.rs@lemmy.bestiver.se•Plan 9's Acme: The Un-Terminal and Text-Based GUIsEnglish
1·2 months agoBasically just skipping to the video linked, the article didn’t explain much. Anyway Acme is cool, there is a lot to learn from it. Mounting all RPC functionality as a filesystem is indeed very cool and very Unix. The mouse stuff is wack, the whole magic of vim is that you don’t need it, but it’s easy to imagine a version that doesn’t require it. Making “everything a command” is also indeed very cool, as well as the simple mental model. It’s kind of visual shell. I totally see how this thing was way ahead of its time and vim is still barely catching up in some ways. Though it would be very easy to add the gaps and keep all of the power

12·2 months ago- he’s not anthropic, and doesn’t have billions of dollars
- stealing from open source is not stealing, that’s the point of open source
- the argument above is that these models are allegedly trained “regardless of license” i.e. implying they are trained on non-oss code
Lung@lemmy.worldtoHacker News@lemmy.bestiver.se•Kotlin creator's new language: a formal way to talk to LLMs instead of EnglishEnglish
4·2 months agoI don’t get it, it’s just a markdown file, which is how llm specs already get written. I’m supposed to trust that the llm will “compile” it correctly every time without touching the code output? What happens when the code gets huge and complex, a “recompile” entails waiting for ages to get something similar to what others compiled? What am I missing?
Rotund borb ofc

https://ruffle.rs/ webasm OSS impl of flash. But yeah the world has changed in a less fun way. At least many of those flash game devs became game devs for pay

Off My Chest@lemmy.world•99.99% of AI experts sound absolutely full of shitEnglish
10·2 months agoBecause networking and public status is a big part of the job in high end silicon valley circles. You can get hired almost exclusively based on your follower count. You can land inter-business contracts and opportunities others can’t. You can leverage your reach to launch new products successfully. The jobs of executives are largely this. It’s not about having a moral stance on which social network to use, it’s about having access to the most eyes. I don’t blame them at all for doing what they do, it’s totally sensible. The question here is kind of like asking “why does MrBeast not just spend his day building his next set??” - because public status is how it all works

It’s ok I sent them an email about it
Pipewire is awesome, I can’t believe they did it, they implemented all the old APIs for the other system and brought it into great harmony. But hey I’m a wayland user too

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Tesla is exiting consumer space because Self-Driving has hit the same fundamental limits as LLMs
1113·2 months agoTesla sunset two of their models, three still for sale and being built. Definitely not giving up on AI or FSD, they are doubling down on cybercab, and elons pay package is tied to FSD subscriptions. If anything, the messaging is they are ramping up AI investment. Humans crash and burn regularly too. Brilliant engineers have definitely not given up, I’m not sure why anyone would think that. AI has continued to improve pretty steadily in all areas (see benchmarks)














Haha yeah college in Quebec is free for Canadians so I mean, not a bad idea
