I studied Physics in college, so I mostly knew the Math.

Here's what I used to self-learn:

1. Machine Learning for Absolute Beginners by Oliver Theobald

2. ISLR

3. Machine Learning by Andrew Ng on Coursera

4. Deep Learning by Andrew Ng on Coursera

5. fast.ai

6. Sebastian Raschka's PyTorch book

Good Math refreshers:

1. Mathematics for Machine Learning Specialization by Imperial College London

2. Linear Algebra and Calculus series by 3blue1brown on YT

Later I delved deep into Computer Vision for profession, and Edge AI for personal projects.

The issue is not the total space, but the price for the size.

It's not even a complete "house", it's just the frame!

For that price you can get a 1000 sqft. mobile home, probably furnished too.

If you want to live in a shed, you can get a 1000 sqft. frame for $4k, not sure why this is $44k.
So no fact-checking was done about their actual claims, only about who the people behind those claims actually are?

OP is asking about a language to learn. Let them fail, to learn and understand.

And after all, C was and actually is moving the world forward, and thanks to C you have the possibility to write and run programs in Rust. Rust can't do anything if not by calling C APIs. Removing C code from any system is removing the legs from the crab.

So why not choosing C? Seems wise to me. Think about the thousands of lines of C code executing across the world so you can just download a crate. It seems to me that your first interest, as a Rust user, is to have C programmers around so you can run your Rust code.

I'll contribute by telling my personal experience after 20 years of embedded and system C: the fear spread by Rustaceans (regarding UB) is uber-exaggerated, specially at learning stages.

Before you bring exploits up, not every C application is connected to internet or has a user interface or runs as root. Just a portion.

And all the diehard mac fans, YouTubers and such that will be talking it up for the next 2-3 years, building up the hype train, until Apple drops a $400 version for consumers.
This learning path is pretty thin. Here's what I used to go from a Physics undergrad to doing research in industry (not in a flashy company, but doing original research and modeling nonetheless):

You do realize that all those radiation doses do add up? I mean it is not as if boar is the only radioactive source, is it? You really seem to struggle to understand how limits for harmful sunstances are defined, and how those substances affect us and the environment.
It's a good point that the radioactive fallout is less bad (in some ways) for certain concepts of nature than sharing the space with modern people.
> Ordinary people don't want to put a VR headset on - they just don't

This. I used to be a multi monitor type of person but when desktop switching became good (I first experienced this in Linux) I started using a single larger monitor and never looked back.
Not really excited about Apple trying to shove SwiftUI into everything. I really hope you'll have the option to use UIKit here.

SwiftUI is great if you're building simple things, but a huge pain in the ass for anything remotely complicated / with a lot of mutable state, which is what I'd expect VR experiences to look like code-wise.
Apple isn't devoid of any past mistakes though...

Removing ports that re useful, making a computer that looks like a trashcan etc.

Just because it's apple trying to fit a use case doesn't mean it will succeed, and I too am skeptical about it to say the least.
Ahhh I kind of see what you mean! Very interesting, I wonder if this was on purpose or if the mind is just great at seeing things in shapes when on drugs.

> but both agree on principle of extracting monopoly rents.

Steam’s competitors like GoG also take 30% so maybe it’s a reasonable price for the service they provide? Only companies like MSFT or Epic can charge less since their stores are heavily subsidized.

Of course as long as games remain available on multiple storefronts it will remain a winner takes all market and Steam does have a significant moat (though not in any way comparable to Apple) due to it’s social features.

At the end the existence of Steam/(other centralized storefronts) seems to benefit both consumers and developers compared to any alternative option (less risk for consumers = higher long term revenues or developers)
What are the economics with SQLite on edge? Do I have to pay for a copy of the database in every edge location?
I've always felt that we lost too much friction in software over the last couple of decades. Instantly searchable content inside user devices and on the wider internet lead to people losing basic knowledge and abilities related to structuring data and mentally modeling what computers do internally.

That lowered entry barriers and costs to produce and use ever more complex software. Coupled with ever increasing capacity in compute and storage, greater bandwidth, we have this clouded blob of compute. Large tracts of the working population can't and won't discover what's beyond the interfaces they need to learn to get the job done.

I think the end result is that the overall quality of information and experiences possible in this environment has peaked and will now trend down. And I hope this will lead to people craving and striving for better abstractions, mapped to underlying layers with the least amount of astonishment, as we could hope for back in the day when a local environment and a small body of relatively stable documentation (I wanna say physical book but I understand not everyone prefers that format) were quite sufficient to produce high value software.

They must have gone only with Unity, because Apple has a hatchet to bury with Epic Megagames, the creator of Unreal Engine.
IMHO HN is about problem-solving as a process. Other platforms are about product ideas as a result.
Why not? It doesn't seem to be starting fires(At least not enough to make the news) and it's digital data, with IIRC pretty good forward error correction. Interference doesn't seem to be an issue, it all seems to work fine.

The only issue I see would be counterfeit cables, but that's the same issue you get with any low voltage system that allows separate cables, and 120VAC even has the same issue, people burn down houses with space heaters and extension cords incessantly, because we are apparently idiots who think it's fine to not have fuses in the cords.
I extensively used SQLite in a telemetry system for an electric race car. The car has an onboard computer, first a Raspberry Pi then a dual core Arm processor. Onboard code logs ~4000 messages a second into three SQLite databases. After a drive session a script merges the three databases into a single SQLite session log. The session log is decoded on a different computer to ~400 columns of time series data again stored in SQLite. This data is then finally converted into a proprietary format for visual analysis.

Prior to SQLite I tried CSV files and raw binary formats. None of them could match the flexibility, ease of use, and throughput of SQLite. My setup has been in use for several weeks now and has processed numerous rows of data. As the SQLite project outlines on its website:

> SQLite does not compete with client/server databases. SQLite competes with fopen().
You could probably configure it for more with those alveo ma35d cards, bifurcation, and risers if you really cared and you're after volume of AV1 instead of higher quality prores. It'd also be much more expensive at that point and look like a Frankenstein machine. Need a proper rack mount server.

But this is an extremely niche use case anyways

> Hindus worship Brahman ultimately.

This is not entirely true. Hinduism is a religion spanning almost 5000 years of continuous belief, and is the last direct descendant of the Proto-Indo-European mythos and beliefs system. As such, it is extremely complex, and it escapes attempts (especially by Western, Christocentric authors) to easily classify it.

Vaiṣṇavas believe Viṣṇu is the ultimate being; Śaivas replace him with Śiva. The Brahman-is-everything belief is closer to the Advaita and Smarta traditions, developed by Ādi Śaṅkara in the 8th century CE. There are the Aghoris, who believe extreme ascetism will lead them closer to Śiva; there exist Hindus who are also Jains, an arguably nāstika ('heterodox') tradition.

Furthermore, it is equally fair to argue that many Hindus do worship the idols (or mūrtis) themselves, which are generally considered extremely holy anyway. Although it has descended from PIE religion, Hinduism has undergone much syncretism after its arrival in the Indian subcontinent, perhaps first with the Indus Valley religion, and then with the myriad animist and fetishist beliefs of the various Indian tribes throughout the subcontinent, and therefore the lingering idolatry.

Every village has a kuladevatā, a 'clan god'. These have been syncretised with popular worship of the more major Hindu deities. 4000 years ago, Vedic nature deities closer to the Greco-Roman-Norse-Anglo-Saxon-Slavic equivalents were more popular. These include Indra, Váruṇa, Vāyu, Savitṛ, Agni, Sóma etc.

After approximately 500 BCE, they were generally replaced by the Trimūrti, their consorts, and their issue, including Gaṇeśa, Pārvatī, Sarasvatī, Lakṣmī, etc. These gods don't really have equivalents in pre-Christian European religions, as they developed through the synthesis of the various scriptures.

Hinduism doesn't even have a single prophet, or religious figure; it has not one but at least seven ṛṣis. It has four Vedas, dozens of Purāṇas, two epics that are individually orders of magnitude longer than any Homerian tragedy.

Dravidian Hinduism, being almost equally as old, has developed almost independently of the rest of the subcontinent, with its own set of beliefs, cultures, and even architecture.

Ergo, Hinduism does not fit into neat categories developed with a Judeo-Christian perspective. Heck, Christians have made it easy for themselves; even their own religion developed out of a polytheistic nature-god religion. The Judeo-Christian god Yahweh is just one deity out of an entire pantheon that more or less went out of fashion after Judaism, including Astarte, Ishtar, Asherah, Baal, El, etc.
You haven't done enough until you accept death.

Container Storage Interfaces (CSI)
there is a huge amount of comfortable people who are bought into the whole Apple ecosystem. Everything they use is Apple, it all looks, is built and works together very well and they have spent multiple amounts over the years than what this costs on its own. Cost is not important for them. Even monitor stands can never be classed as expensive.

Brand loyalty, consumerism, platform lock in. It's the reason why Apple is so wealthy.

People will defend the investment of their time and money by investing more.
How will it change if they are living in a dictatorship under total Government control. If you look at the history of European workers rights many of the movements would not be allowed in this context. The only alternative seems to be some kind of violent revolution?
> Well, the entire idea is to run locally, right? Now you have to worry about getting the runtime to work on 3 different OSs,

You mean, like a runtime that can be a single, statically linked binary, that requires a c-compiler? With bindings for several other popular languages? https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/

Yeah, maybe I am an optimist, but somehow I don't see that being a big problem...

> I expect LLMs to be a ubiquitous UI paradigm.

I don't expect that to be the case. LLMs are useful in text wrangling tasks, for which we have specialized software. Software that already bundles large amounts of libraries.

But what I do expect from an UI: a) that it is fully functional even when the machine is offline, and b) that it's responsiveness is independent from the load on someones datacenter.

> But non-cloud LLMs are expected to run locally on clients.

They don't have to. I can already see many useful applications for LLMs that run in on-premises servers. I never said that open source LLMs have to be restricted to client-devices.

> All that said, perhaps we should look at legislation as well as the possibility of a OS provider playing nice.

Legislation is another good argument for open source LLMs taking over. Looking at the EU AI Act, and the recent ideas coming up in the US, it looks like model training data being open for audits is gonna be a thing in the future, especially if the model is used in a context a lot of peoples livelihoods could rely on.
That was literally the only way to capture video back then. Everyone has infinitely better cameras in their pocket, notice how few people buy and use video cameras outside of professional or hobbyist creators.
”No wireless. Less space than a nomad. Lame.” - Slashdot's famous 2001 dismissal of ipod.

Apple has a history of high prices, and a history of making it work by pioneering forms and user interface paradigms . The desktop GUI everyone now knows as "computers." Laptops. Click wheel ipods, and their multi-device paradigm. All-screen smartphones.

There's no guarantee of success, but VR is exactly the kind of problem where Apple has a legacy of releasing breakthrough products.

Going with apple's history... and 2000 skeptical comments... it all comes down to content. I'm also skeptical about using a heads up display for 2D stuff... like watching regular movies or using a virtual, 2D monitor. That said who knows.

There are things that I would like to see. VR films could be amazing. Design software could be amazing. Simulators.

Regardless of what content, all content faces user base issues. Can't make a $100m Star Wars film for a <1m person audience.

The $3500 price tag might restrict the number of users, and make profitable content difficult. OTOH, pushing for the best device possible might make new kinds of content work.
The thing that is unclear in your original comment is exactly what I was mentioning in mine. You didn't write what kind of threshold you were calculating here (which together with the bottom part of the comment made me think it was about actual radiation sickness).
Now that you've made clear it's about the EU dosage limits I can easily follow.
As I've said, there is a world of difference between where cancer risk begins, and where you can expect acute radiation sickness, and if you'd been calculating the latter there could potentially still be a significant (cancer) risk with much less ridiculous consumption numbers.

Of course, but they will not appear, or be residual in the climax of the ecosystems. Its strategy is live fast and leave a beautiful charred corpse. The normal trend in this planet is to replace this opportunists by other species when the ecosystems mature. See "theory of stress" in ecology.

In short a little stress is good, for both ecosystems and humans, (it develops a better immune system). But too much stress is catastrofic, and this is the current situation with the "clean forest" mantra.

GLTF does a pretty good job. It definitely doesn't cover everything, but it's a good scene descriptor.
I've personally witnessed venture capital firms requiring patent filings as a prerequisite for funding. An acquaintance of mine once worked for a startup where the team was diverted from product development to ideation on patentable processes. The focus was less on innovation and more on creating a unique claim to secure funding, which I find misguided.

The VC, instead of nurturing the inventive process, largely contributed to the crafting of a patent application. The objective was to design it in such a way that it was cryptic and as widely applicable as possible. Despite its questionable practices, the patent was approved, leading to the subsequent funding of the startup.

However, the market didn't respond well to the idea, necessitating a pivot. Meanwhile, there were other companies independently pursuing similar ideas. They could have invested significant time and resources, unaware that they were infringing on an existing patent. It's a speculative guess, but I can't help but wonder if the VC fund is vigilantly searching for successful implementations of the patented idea, ready to initiate lawsuits for patent infringement. This illustrates the potential misuse of patents, which, rather than fostering innovation, sometimes stifle it.

Not quite. The underlying technology is open-source, but the specifics of the models of late (to say nothing of the tuned parameters) are not. Just because the core of the architecture - or even the tooling used to build it - is open source does not make the result open source. That would be akin to saying anything compiled with LLVM and using well-known algorithms is Open Source.
TIFF is a container, it can have payload with different compression schemes, lossy or lossless. Including JXL.

The problem is wide monitors. Nobody need really wider monitors for work. Mostly you want to have more vertical space.On work I have a 32" monitor, at home even a 43" monitor. The cool thing is the vertical space. 16:9 is bs for work. A large 4:3 would be much better choice today.
Makes perfect sense. The testing being discussed is to create platform where generic tests can be coded and rerun. So tests that aren't specific to totals and subtotals

I think the parent commenter was trying to portray Indians from a Western perspective, to highlight the disdain that the West has supposedly held for India.

So how would you compile code which contains a call to a method which is only defined at runtime?
Also false. LNG carriers are volume limited. Hence Q-Max vessels carrying about 100,000 tonnes vs bulk carriers of similar length carrying 400,000 tonnes.

Also I said useful energy. Depending on application, electricity is 1.5-5x as useful per joule.

Have you considered not just reaching for the stupidest possible lie on every occasion?
The Varjo would be more around 12 million per eye, but I think the actual feeling could be affect by the optics and how the central focus area is handled.

Stereoscopy isn't VR. It isn't even required to use it, put a person with one eye in a VR headset and they'll be able to use it's fundamental feature set just fine. It's the positional tracking that allows for perspective correct representations of anything desired that's the point. This has a lot of practical use beyond making things pop out for effect.
> Obviously, if argc == 0, you should not dereference anything in argv.

Quoting ISO C17:

Not constrained on argc being greater than zero (unlike the points that follow).

So argv should always be dereferenceable within the program. It's an other question if this should be enforced by the Linux kernel or the C runtime.
