We used to get these books in the annual international book fair in Delhi back in my childhood days. I still have 2 of them (Mathematics Can Be Fun and How The Steel Was Tempered), but I'm pretty sure we had several more at the time. They were fun reads, and the illustrations used to be great!
My next 100 passwords are sorted.
IIUC this just pulls in various other crates with some vibe-coding on top. I'm not familiar with the Rust dependency system, but what is the need to have copies of the code? Would it not suffice to just have an "empty" crate that just depends on the original crates?
Very poor. Hardly lasts a week with step tracking and heart rate enabled. Like someone else mentioned, go for a Garmin instinct 2 or 3 solar. My 2 Solar lasts more than 30 days on a full charge.
Not unlikely given the crash in Atlassian's share price over the last year or so. When I was in NetApp a long time back, such rumours would often do the rounds when the share price took a dip, with Oracle and IBM usually touted as the likely buyers. NetApp is still doing strong more than a decade later :-).
Amazing. Easily the most learning I've had in 18 minutes (I watched at 1.2x speed) in my life.
I was thinking of using it with Duckdb as well but seems it would be of limited benefit. Parquet objects are in MBs, so they would be streamed directly from S3. With raw parquet objects, it might help with S3 listing if you have a lot of them (shave off a couple of seconds from the query). If you are already on Ducklake, Duckdb will use that for getting the list of relevant objects anyway.
I was thinking the same - if JSONata was a priority for them, why not choose a language with good support, like JS or Java? OTOH if development language was a priority why not choose a format that is well supported in it?
Thanks! I'm using Instant.parse at present and this is supposedly 37x faster. Will definitely give it a try.
I ran into 5 and 7 in a Flink app recently - was parsing a timestamp as a number first and then falling back to iso8601 string, which is what it was. The flamegraph showed 10% for the exception handling bit. While fixing that, also found repeated creation of datetimeformatter. Both were not in loops, but both were being done for every event, for 10s of 1000s of events every second.
documentation survives when it lives next to the code. 15+ years ago, this was pretty much the standard. Every decision - whether major or just a hack to handle a corner-case - used to be recorded in the code itself. Then tools like Jira and Confluence came in and these things moved to undiscoverable nooks and corners of the organization. AI search tools like Glean and Rovo have improved the discoverability, though I'd still prefer things to remain in the code.
Rovo dev cli is pretty good though. Though that may just be because it talks to claude or openai in the backend.
They have enough enterprise customers to pay the bills for years though.
I loved their dry seasoning [1]. Bought some when I visited the bay area several years back and used to use it on everything from toasts to pasta. Sadly, haven't visited US since to be able to pick up some more :-(

Reminds me of what bootstrap [1] was like around a decade ago. It's gotten quite a bit bloated since then though.
A start-up I had been a part of in New York. Where I was the first employee. I had owned equity. They had eventually sold for $350 million.
What happened to the author's equity?
Tried the app for Kannada. The "AI explanation" didn't work for any phrase, but the first lesson seemed to be quite useful otherwise.
Not just that, but potentially 17 other guilty caregivers have been cleared of suspicion based on the findings in that paper.
Yes he did. I attended a talk from him on the same, so that's how I know.
Let's not forget Laos and Cambodia, where unexploded munitions dumped by the US decades ago are killing and maiming people even today - https://www.humanium.org/en/unexploded-bombs-still-endanger-...
Seems like a silly excuse. If his concern is that Israel could use Replit for military purposes, then SA is perfectly capable of doing the same. And SA has - directly or indirectly - killed more people in Yemen than Israel has in Gaza.
In my experience, this kind of productivity can only be seen in small startups or, if in a large company, on an entirely new product line when processes like test coverage, reviews, etc are lax. In large firms and existing code-bases, it can take weeks to even get the approach decided. Even once decided, any pull request larger than a few dozen lines will get shot down. Things are even worse if you're working across time zones because the to-and-fro on pull requests takes several days to be completed.
The author doesn't say don't trust doctors or trust chatgpt. He says don't trust "a single doctor" and look for a second opinion whenever possible.
Are h1b workers really cheaper? Don't you have to pay them similar to what an American at the same level would be paid?
And India. Although here they do a horrible job of it, so I prefer to sharpen them myself.
Just wanted to thank you for a great tool :-). I love d2 and ever since I discovered it a couple of years back I've been using it for all my diagramming needs.
Thanks again and keep up the good work!
Databricks on azure is huge. I've heard that in some Azure regions, over 70% of the compute usage is just Databricks. So there is definitely an incentive for MS to acquire them.
For a few TBs of data, well partitioned and stored in parquet or some such format, you could just use duckdb on a single node.
I've heard they're regularly doing buybacks for employees.
Even within "South Asia", India is over-represented. Haven't heard of too many Pakistani, Bangladeshi, or Sri Lankan CEOs.
