I don't see how that's any better for a haskell shop. i got some empathy but you chose a rough life.

> You can well imagine how important predicting tides would have been for D-day landing.

Is this intended to communicate positivity or negativity?

Predicting tides was known to the ancients; it would be lovely to explore the hubris of the modern narrative.

Talk about having too much money!

Yea, anything can be a kind of something else. :clown:

Bruh. Do you need to be paid to interact in good faith or were you raised to be social

How are you living such that you're regularly pitting humans against computers

Not only is this unbelievable, it's reprehensible

Frankly I have no clue what value the term "average" has after trying to follow this conversation.

I agree; but what are we supposed to do? Insight has always been paired with the empathy of not having it but

I refuse to touch the IQ bait

I mean yea, i just view rust as the quality-oriented spear of western development.

Rust is absolutely an improvement over C in every way.

Ah, understandable.

> what is a dumb thing?

Emphasizing quantum key control. In the situations where it's really relevant you don't need buy-in from investors, the value is evident.

Sayonara!

Because the author is far more interesting than the brand? I'm not sure what would justify branding your personal observations outside of bandwagoning onto hopeful investors.

This seems like a really dumb thing to emphasize for marketing ends outside of actual competency. But what else is new!

This just seems to illustrate the complexity of compiler authorship. I am very sure c compilers are wble to address this issue any better in the general case.

I would agree if I didn't associate nvidia with incomprehensibly bad support for drivers. Idk, maybe this is a linux-only thing, but it's hard to imagine a vendor with a worse reputation for delivering functional software. Only perhaps microsoft itself has tried to be even more anti-consumer in their approach to support.

Cuda is ok, but it's the sheer mass of people targeting the platform that makes it more interesting than eg opencl. It hasn't don't anything clearly better aside from aggressively trying to court developer interest. It will pass and we will have stronger runtimes for it.

What really sets nvidia apart is its ability to market to people. Truly phenomenal performance.

I certainly think the humor in parrot/rakudo (and why they come up today still) is how little of their own self image the proponents could perceive. The absolute irony of thinking that perl's strength was due to familiarity with text-manipulation rather than the cultural mass....

Quantum key distribution is a real thing. It's a very specific set of constraints that would make it generally attractive, though, namely not relying on networks of trust to function, maybe? Key distribution as a dumb pipe.

Sure, I just think that's a very odd way to characterize the project. Basically anything can be universal vm if you put enough effort to reimplementing the languages. Much of what sets Parrot aside is its support for frontend tooling.

I think that was more of a language-oriented effort rather than runtime/abi oriented effort.

I'm not really sure what to look for, frankly. It makes a rather uninteresting conversation partner and its observations of the world bland and mealy-mouthed.

But potentially maybe I'm just not looking for a trivia partner in my software.

I'm not sure how nvidia's driver track record would have helped them, but drivers nor linux nor software in any way has ever really been nvidia's strong-suit. but even with the popularity of it CUDA cannot explain nvidia's success alone; you also need the demand of butcoin and the secondary-but-farcical imitation of LLMs but also the inexplicable lack of awareness of alternatives that need explaining...

I'm excited about this too, but it's a little concerning there's a brand in the title. There's no shortage of those from ati, intel, amd, apple, ibm, the game gaggle, etc to interview. The fact that nvidia succeeded where others failed is largely an artifact of luck.

Sure, if you still think the word has meaning.

ML is a kind of memorization, though.

I can't speak for anyone else, but these models only seem about as smart as google search, with enormous variability. I can't say I've ever had an interaction with a chatbot that's anything refodolant of interaction with intelligence.

Now would I take AI as a trivia partner? Absolutely. But that's not really the same as what I look for in "smart" humans.
