The reason is that runtime design forms the constraints of the GC design. Java allows relocating objects, Go does not. Go allows interior pointers, Java does not. These decisions have deep impact on GC design. Something this performance critical needs to be tailored to the runtime.
Problem is even with auto-formatters, people will squabble over pointless stuff. I just do whatever comes naturally and assume someone is going to want it a certain other way, then I change it without arguing. That goes for designs too.

I passed the style test at work then instantly stopped following any of the rules. My teammates who also don't care approve the changes. We deal with lots of bugs each day, and none of them have ever been because things like using `auto` in C++ when we shouldn't have. There are far better things to spend time on.

And if someone does care about something in particular, often they will contribute to an auto-cleanup tool that makes it a certain way. So there was no reason for me to do it manually.

No on claims Go was "first"; I don't get why you're so obsessed by that. The previous poster just said "The race detector is an invaluable complement". And it is. There was no comment at all about any other language; it just says "this is a nice thing about Go".

Not angry. Having a discussion :-). It just amazes me how the HN crowd is more than happy with just trying out a model on their machine and calling it a day and not seeing the real picture ahead.

> Apple has made a fully realized spatial operating system

I'm not sure what you mean precisely. Apple doesn't seem to have done more than windows with persistent positions. This isn't nothing, but it's also not something that has tremendous value for a headset that you only wear 30 or 45 minutes at a time.

And they have little to no management of these floating windows. I'm really not holding my breath for Apple to come up with breakthrough windows management given what they've done for the past decade.

If you don't think in term of potential and promises, but of actual value to the user right now, I'd understand why Meta hasn't the gimmick.

Is this a big lead for Apple ? Perhaps, the world mapping could be something difficult to reproduce. Or Meta could be at roughly the same point but decided it not to go there.
Is this something the folks at Microsoft or Slack are actually saying "this is how our product is intended to be used" or is this just you saying "I wish these apps were different?"

It's almost exactly the same kind of conceptual transition that Apple made happen with keyboardless smartphones, too, which adds an extra sort of funny element to it.

Maybe I’m just salty that Google got rid of its coding competitions after 20 years. No fun allowed.

Your parents aren't able to simultaneously stream with 40mbps?

The example was 2-3 simultaneous streams plus a "work environment" (a zoom call?). My family of 4 doesn't ever have that much usage, which is why I don't enjoy being forced to pay for 75mbps — Comcast's lowest tier. We cap out at two simultaneous streams, which is probably the same for your parents. It has literally never been an issue — even when we had 25mbps.
You are only partly right: if I am an engineer and you are the CEO, my job is to do my engineering part and your job as CEO includes (but not only) to maximize shareholder value. If your job becomes the problem, the focus and the constraint for everyone, including me as an engineer, then you get to Boeing situation. It is nothing wrong for the company leaders to be interested about shareholder values, but it is wrong to make it the only purpose in life for all employees.

I think it's likely that consciousness is what you call it until you understand how it works.
Meetings which decide things are very hard asynchronously because they empower both not deciding, and veto by non attendance.

I'm not saying it always happens but if a decision has to be made and it's Round Robin (which is what asynchronous work implies to caucus everyones sign off), it's going to take several orbits round to avoid toxic gaming of the mechanistic side, where a synchronised event would be one and done if the decision is a vote or consensus.
That one's silly too. Unless someone is so damaged they're not capable of ever not harming others, (think psychopathic murderers) what's the point of sentences that long? Anything past 15 years or so effectively destroys their existing lives anyway. I think that crosses from punishment to unnecessary cruelty and stuffing prisons.

Nim is also a strong player as a systems programming language. In terms of memory management, it's configurable, and by default you get ARC (no GC). I've written a hobby kernel (if you can call it that) in Nim[1] as well as Zig[2], and I found Nim to be much more ergonomic and approachable. The fact that Zig requires weaving an allocator through most calls that may allocate gets in the way of what I'm trying to do. I'd rather focus on core logic and have ref counting take care of dropping memory when appropriate.

One thing I wish Nim had though is true sum types with payloads. I think there's an RFC for that, but it's a shame it's not in the language yet.

I guess from the results of this thread a larger percentage of HN has this condition, but my understanding from reddit threads is that it is quite abnormal. I also lack an internal narrative, and I was quite shocked to find out that most people literally have a voice that they 'hear' internally.

It’s probably quite far up the list for those who ended up smashing into the ceiling. Assuming this was the cause, it’s a problem, though maybe less so than other shite Boeing systems in play at the moment (eg, the de-ice situation).
I'm aware, I don't need that amount of sophistication yet.

Python seems to be the way to go deeper though. Is there a good reason I should be aware of to pick llama.cpp over python?
> It's not meant for production deployments.

I am probably not the demographics you expect. I don’t do “production” in that sense, but I have ollama running quite often when I am working, as I use it for RAG and as a fancy knowledge extraction engine. It is incredibly useful:

- I can test a lot of models by just pulling them (very useful as progress is very fast),

- using their command line is trivial,

- the fact that it keeps running in the background means that it starts once every few days and stays out of the way,

- it integrates nicely with langchain (and a host of other libraries), which means that it is easy to set up some sophisticated process and abstract away the LLM itself.

> what do you do after the initial experimentation?

I just keep using it. And for now, I keep tweaking my scripts but I expect them to stabilise at some point, because I use these models to do some real work, and this work is not monkeying about with LLMs.

> I'm not even talking about giving credit to llama.cpp, just mentioning that this product is gaining disproportionate attention and kudos compared to the value it delivers.

For me, there is nothing that comes close in terms of integration and convenience. The value it delivers is great, because it enables me to do some useful work without wasting time worrying about lower-level architecture details. Again, I am probably not in the demographics you have in mind (I am not a CS person and my programming is usually limited to HPC), but ollama is very useful to me. Its reputation is completely deserved, as far as I am concerned.

I'm not opposed to having mechanism to opt in to client side decoration, but making it mandatory is problematic for several reasons:

1. Different apps will draw decorations differently, leading to a lot inconsistency.
2. It means apps designed for other environments that don't draw their own decorations won't have any decorations.
3. If your client doesn't use one of the big all encomposing gui toolkits (not every app needs that), then it has to implement the decorations itself, which is non-trivial to do correctly (I know because I have worked on it for such an app).
4. You can't reliably configure the appearance and behavior of the decorations in a central place for all applications.

Fuethermore, if clients always draw their own decorations, then if you use a tiling wm and don't want decorations at all, you are stuck with them.

> By law, marriage is between man and a woman. That’s it.

This is not true in the US. My neighbors are the same sex and legally married. I know at least 3 same-sex married couples here and I don't even live in a big city.

But if you're OK with that kind of discrimination, then you wouldn't have a problem if the law said only gay people could get married--but don't worry because straight people can get a domestic partnership. Yes?

The problem with that is, of course, that we're not treating people equally under the law when we should.

Sure, it was the case that that particular kind of discrimination was allowed, but we stopped doing that. We've stopped doing a lot of things that were discriminatory for a lot of reasons over the centuries.

In my country, we're all Americans, and we should get the same marriage and domestic partnership rights, gay or straight.

That said, I would like to hear how two people of the same sex getting married has personally affected you in a negative way. Is it because you feel the institution is lessened by allowing same-sex marriage, and so indirectly so is your marriage? Or something else?
C++ for high-level code tends to be this way. Waste tons of focus on saving a couple of CPU cycles, but the whole thing is waiting on RPCs anyway.

Also you probably used less efficient algorithms because the smarter ones were too annoying to implement in C++, and there's possibly a solid Python lib that does it with hyper optimized C code anyway.

And then actually using the thing is easier as well.
IMO what Elon did at Twitter showed that some tech companies can shed a ton of staff and still operate. That put pressure on boards of other tech companies to figure out if they were overstaffed.

Simultaneously, Twitter dumping a bunch of employees put downward pressure on wages (for certain roles), which made the math even more compelling for companies that were on the fence. It became clear that you could probably lay off people now and then fill new roles (in strategic departments) with lower comp.

Once it was apparent that tons of companies were doing RIFs, the reputational hit of doing a RIF was greatly diminished.

Boards felt pressure from shareholders, and one domino fell after another.

So I do stand corrected there, although I will note that the Fifth Circus is a poor guide to understanding the First Amendment. Indeed, if you take two of its relevant decisions that are currently being appealed before SCOTUS, it believes that it is a First Amendment violation for the US government to talk to you about your moderation policies, but it is not a First Amendment violation for Texas to talk to you about your moderation policies (or we'll sue you if you don't want to listen to us).

> To highlight the problem, take Scala. A language I absolutely love, by the way. But it’s got this one big issue. There’s no idiomatic Scala. It’s way too flexible.

> I can write a single file, calculator class and start with a Java style:

// Returns, braces and semi-colons
def getResult(): Double = {
return result;
}

def multiply(number: Double): Calculator = {
if (number == 0) {
println("Multiplication skipped: number is 0");
} else {
result = result * abs(number);
}
return this;
}

Scala has this problem, but this is a terrible example. Because literally no one writes like this.

More plausible is:

def getResult: Double = result

def multiply(number: Double): this = {
if (number == 0) {
println("Multiplication skipped: number is 0");
} else {
result *= abs(number);
}
this
}

And even that's a bad example.

Because still no one writes Scala like this, with mutable chaining. (Java yes, Scala no.) It's either mutable, or immutable chaining.
