Thanks!

Thanks, will do 🫡

There's a spectrum of how automatic things get in different languages but there's the issue of making it an unobservable optimisation, and also making it not over parallelise. There are lots of interesting approaches in academia but nothing really in mainstream languages and nothing that definitively solves the problem. That being said, I also do not solve the problem lol, I just offer a potential direction that could.

Fun fact: you can email authors of papers and ask for a PDF. Authors don't get paid when you buy a paper (in fact it usually costs money to publish) and they'll generally be happy to send out their work to anyone interested.

Thanks. The type system of the language has some interesting novelty but my key research area is automatic parallelisation of code written in that language.

Currently working on my PhD thesis which is due at the end of the month. I'm cutting it quite close but if everything goes according to plan I should have it all done on time.

I kind of like Oreo coke. Kind of like a coke vanilla but a bit sweeter?

D&D monks be like

Docs are good, but the main thing is that there are just fewer steps due to good tooling.

As an application author, Snaps are much easier to create than Flatpaks.

BG3 has couch co-op, which is pretty neat

Our restrictions were basically lifted after four weeks in 2020 because that was enough to eliminate the virus. I think going a bit authoritarian with the lockdown maximised our freedom in the long run that year.

We had a four week (incredibly strict) lockdown in 2020 and then life returned to normal because we eliminated the virus. In late 2021 the delta variant ruined all that and the government attempted a half-assed lockdown which didn't do much and that's where a lot of the anger came from.

That could be a malita filter, which has a flat bottom.

mmm delicious 😋

What's wrong with a paper filter for a pour over?

It uses other signals too, like what other sites you've visited with that checkbox on it, what CloudFlare has seen your IP address doing in the past, etc.

The google one is able to see if you're logged into a google account and take that into account.

There's even a new variant of the Google captcha that is invisible and doesn't even bother to show a checkbox.

This reminds me of a great video about this sort of principle in reverse: https://youtu.be/wBBnfu8N_J0

It's different in different markets. In Australia and New Zealand it's usually a reasonably well made medium-dark blend.

You'll get much better at any dedicated café, but it's also miles better than sbux (who don't even use real espresso machines).

I enjoy OpenMW and I'm happy to host if you want, although my instance is basically just me and a few friends right now.
