I suspect that the same AI trick works with binaries if you run them through a decompiler first. It would be interesting to try if I had time.

There has been at least one posted here in Hacker News, Mojo. Google shows some other similar attempts.

The real issue with doing this is that there is no body of code available to train your models on. As a result the first few look like opinionated Python.

I tried this and found that there are a set of potentially good candidates who simply cannot bring themselves to criticize anything in front of an interviewer due to the power dynamics of the interviewer/interviewee relationship.

This describes OSS.

Software engineering is search.

The iterative approach described here to finding a 'good' borgizaf is simulated annealing. Make an initial guess to the solution, then start with changes that are large early on and which increasingly refine as you get closer to your goal.

Metropolis-Hastings algorithm works better for situations for which you know even less about what a good borgizaf looks like. Perform many experiments (code changes) and toss out all of the ones that don't work. Science works this way. An automated LLM coder would probably also go this route as the cost of trying many things would be more heavily automated.

Large systems tend to look more like the genetic algorithm. The space is diced up into individual components and then each 'gene' is optimized in parallel. For example if you were trying to build a Linux distribution you'd have several hundred packages and then for each release the packages could improve or be entirely replaced with better versions (or swap back and forth as they competed).

Of course there are other search strategies that can be employed. Search is still an important area of research.

This is a legal thing. If you do a layoff it's for business reasons and you can avoid all of the PIP and such. But if you do it that way you can't select based upon performance.

It would probably work if it were just a -$1 ad credit on each download? Except it looks like they are making their money here on sponsorship and upsells rather than youtube ad revenue.

What's the feasability of making nuclear powered cargo ship 'trains'? Is it possible to string them together with cables for power?

This is the reason that Twitter is removing the block button...

Corn will not pollinate correctly if it is not in a rather dense clump. If you grow it in your garden you should plant 3 or more rows(or a square/circle). Otherwise you will get mostly empty cobs.

Worse than that.

You can get shingles again.

I tried this as well but ChatGPT just refused to do the transcription fixing because PG13 movies contain content that is too controversial.

I'm saddened that they are just growing chicken. It's a safe and boring choice when they could be presenting endangered species burgers, pate, lark tongue, or other intriguing possibilities.

The implications are approximately the same as https://www.amazon.com/tape-recorder/s?k=tape+recorder except with compute power to make storage and search more convenient. Except that the glasses/app don't save anything by default nor do they need to use the internet.

I suppose it would be a nice feature if they saved all of your conversations for later? The translations are too imperfect for any legal matter use.

I am looking for interesting projects at the lower levels of the software stack. Let me know if you want to build or productize an embedded rust platform, pure rust containers, C/C++/Yocto anything, commercialize 801.11ay, zero copy network drivers (io_uring for networking), or other similar low level infrastructure project. Anything in computational medicine would also be of interest.

I just went through all of this when building a raytracer.

* Sprinkling & around everything in math expressions does make them ugly. Maybe rust needs an asBorrow or similar?

* If you inline everything then the speed is the same.

* Link time optimizations are also an easy win.

Stable Diffusion 2.0 added support for depth map generation from images. This works great for automatically converting 2D video into 3D video by synthesizing the stereo frames.
