Cluster environment with virtualized cores may cause slower performance of Julia's parallel code. People recommend Threadpinnig.jl to solve the issues.

It's easy to add, yes. However, the basic @time macro outputs the info about allocations by default. So it is also easy to see if there is a problem.

Yeah, Julia's REPL deserves special attention as it allows to do the package management (by pressing "]"), look for the functions help ("?") and do shell operations (";") without leaving it.

Julia is not an alternative to Go. It is the alternative to Python (slow) and to C++ (hard and complex). Go is fast and simple but doesn't have abstractions to create complex code required by math libraries.

For newcomers my main tip is to use views for array slices (for example, via the @view and @views macros), since by default Julia creates copies of slices. Broadcast operation (the dot syntax) is another super useful instrument for speeding up vectorized operations. You can write fast GPU code with them without resorting to GPU kernels, in some cases. Although GPU kernel programming via CUDA.jl is convenient in Julia, once you get used to it.

Yeah, the title may suggest that productivity is still 10% out of 100% after CEOs fired half of developers believing that the rest will do all the job with the help of AI.

I don't think this forum has significant costs of running, especially considering it is not in development.

They switched the backend to Common Lisp in 2019, and at the time had two seperate Arc-to-JS compilers in development. [0]

The site may feel less changeable than many, but I would be very surprised if it is not "in-development".

It employs two full–time moderators.

Somebody knows how a part of a complex system works. We can't say this for complex systems created with AI. This is a road into the abyss. The article is making it worse by downplaying the issue.


I swear, every fascist has the same playbook. They use the same phrases, same accusations, same lies, sometimes even same wordings. It is like they have a single hive mind - for which everyone else is the enemy and is subject to destruction or enslaving.


The Epstein files are revealing a web of surprising connections. Epstein's network knew about 9/11 and made stock trades beforehand. He was personally involved in some UK corruption to lower taxes on bank executives.


Yup, the specific one in use here by Flock is accusation in a mirror.


How timely


I wonder what one agenda in posting that right now would be, ehh?

And to think Americans used to take pride in being nation of freedom.


To be fair, not everything is someone's agenda. Indifference, ignorance and stupidity exist by their own. But hostile forces do like to multiply them.

You may not follow the news right until they start knocking on your door, or just obliterate your house in a rocket strike.


Non participation is an exercise of one's freedom.
