I would suggest "In the Mothers’ Land" from Élisabeth Vonarburg. It also talk about alternate society centered around gender. I didnt really liked the left hand of the night, but liked that one. And LeGuin saluted the book apparently too.

When working with kanban I maintained a average number of card done per days. if someone asked when some card woud be done, I just multiplied the number of card ahead of that one by average and get an estimate. You can estimate the cards but usually it doesnt really improve accuracy as tasks are on average the same size.

vscode has some code coloring extension but no code completion that I'm aware of. If you found one, please consider sharing it :). I would happily switch to another editor if one has a extension that autocomplete categories.

Is there an text editor that is able to autocomplete the categories in hledger format ? It would be great to type Assets:: and then get a list of the possible categories, but I haven't found any editor or extension that does it.

Yes I did. The result is perfect as far as I can tell. Not everyone is eligible to that method: you need to have enough space in your eye so that it is doable. So checking for that is a first step to be sure it is doable. The only serious risk is an infection, so each eye was done in a different operation room. I was also told that the result is better than lasik, it is more costly though.

If you want to go further and go for rigid body dynamics and constraint, I found that series of blog post very useful: https://www.toptal.com/game/video-game-physics-part-i-an-int...

Antivirus are really stupid tools, but not that stupid. I said that from a time where I had to work around tools flagged by antivirus. Among stupid things they do are flagging a part of an executable, some nsis plugin flagged the whole package as virus as soon as you included them. I think they probably hash files by chunks, if you have too many bad chunks then you are a virus. A few bytes at the end doesn't change that.

A lot of the information here are present in the journal of Jordan Mechner which I found was a very interesting dive into the making of Prince of Persia including doubts and difficulties anyone who tried to create things can probably relate to. Thats a very good read and a great gift to anyone who try to make things on his own : https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1468093657/ref=tmm_pap_swatch...

I absolutly recommend it. There is also a comics that tell his grand father, his father story and himself that tells a lot of what a war is and also tells a little bit of the making of PoP.

Git blame -w -C -C -C would also keep author in case of moved lines

Does anyone know if there are libraries for writing fakes ? I wonder why there is a lot of mock libraries but I know none for writing fakes.

Can you summarize what that good way look like for those of us that haven't read it ?

One trick I learned from https://craftinginterpreters.com/hash-tables.html is that you don't need an extra linked list for each bucket... But how do you handle collisions then ?

The trick is that you make sure that your table is large enough to not have a lot of collisions, then if you have a collision instead of storing exactly in the bucket given by the hash, you store it in the next available bucket. When you look for a key, you get the hash, then the index from the hash, and you start searching at this point. If you reach an empty value, then there is no value. If you find the value then you return that. So everything is stored in a single array, no need for extra allocations and it is better for cache locality.

The same principle is used here for very minimal hash table (13 lines): https://nullprogram.com/blog/2020/10/19/

This video also talk about how to optimize hash table and look into several implementations: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMQ_HcNSOAI&t=1690s&ab_chann... . It talks about techniques used by advanced hash table. There was a lot more that I didn't know.

What matter is not whether nuclear energy produce wastes, but how much waste and how manageable it is relatively to other sources of energy. If you look at nuclear only, then obviously nuclear waste is bad. If you look at oil, coal, and the fact that they are producing tons of carbon dioxid (for what would be grams of nuclear) which is gazeous and that we don't even know how to handle it.

We need energy, but people as dismissing every source of energy because they are looking at each source one at a time. We should have taught people years ago that there is no perfect choice.

Make uses timestamp, so if you checkout code or switch branches even if the files are the same, make rebuild them. Also when you switch branches the ccache cache still have copy of .o files.

Actually there is two type of leave: Paternity leave and parental education leave. Paternity leave is 25 days for each parent with full pay usually. Parental education leave is up to 3 years with lower pay (500€/month ? but there may be some complements here and there )

My understand is that having the copyright they have the right to acknowledge any copy happening even if it’s in a cache somewhere, on a wire somewhere. If you mount a drive remotely copies happens. Actually with dvd copies happens in memory too but those have been legally authorized.

I think it's more that people are not familiar with the formal presentation of the problem. I doubt many people would have difficulty understanding a less abstract statement:

dog => mammal (dog implies mammal )

What can we say about not a dog ? (can be a cat, or a chair... ) What can we say about not a mammal ? (can be a chair, building... )

It's more intuitive because we as human understand the groups.

It's interesting how different solving issues in a pixel sharer is.

I didn't see the purpose of it when I got told of the principle at school. The supposed control of error detection feel like a very vague benefit to me. Especially now with computers. Actually hashing of the chain of values would probably be more secure (like bitcoin yes).

However, I think the real value in double entry accounting is that it not only represent money you have but also things you own: If you buy a pen, you have less money, but you have an extra furniture pen and your accounting can reflect that. It can also reflect the loss of value of the pen over time.

It is also useful if you get in debt to buy something: you transfer money from a debt account to your current account, you buy the thing you wanted to buy and appropriatly report the value of what you own in accounting. You now have a thing, and a debt to be repaid in whatever term was agreed.

It's also very useful as a tool of control for state. All exchanges you have with other entities are recorded in a separate account. It's possible to take that account and check that the other entity accounting book match exchanges they have with you.

Http://agner.org is a good resource once you know the basics. It explains a lot of how microprocessors interpret instructions, caches, decoding, microinstructions. Assembler is not really a language, it’s deeply connected to the material. Agner explains a lot of those things.

This might be what you want : https://www.agner.org/optimize/#manuals

Start looking around 4 minutes from the start

I just posted https://github.com/ecaradec/j86 today. Its a compiler for a mini language to optimized x86 assembly register. It does a few optimisations like register allocation and some constant propagation. I learned a lot doing it.

This is a project I start wanting to know how to best assign registers to variables. It grew from that and went into exploring things like SSA forms and constants propagation. It was a lot of fun (and pain) working on it, and I learned a lot on how compilers are built.

I’m in the same ballpark as you are, and you actually seem a bit better than I am. Some teachers specialize in accent training, it might be a good idea to find one that could help you progress in that direction.

People can still multitask using mouse only. It’s ok to have a hidden fast interface if you have a discoverable slow interface.

A few days ago wayne did post that his position was terminated : http://kicad-pcb.org/blog/2019/10/KiCad-Lead-Developer-Annou...

For us kanban was an easier sell to management than scrum, because they wanted frequent changes more than hard deadlines.

Also after hiring you have a trial period that can last up to 8 months during which you can fire at will (with a 1 month notice ).

What you describe is word2vec which is one kind of word embedding that is pre-learned. Often (with keras at least ), embedding is learned simultaneously with the deep learning network. Keras uses index of words to progressively adjust a set of randomly initialized n-dimensional vectors. I’m telling you because I feel it may be the case for you too. The various kind of embedding was very confusing at first.

However, I just marvel at word2vec when I stumbled upon it. Encoding of meaning as vector dimensions was mind expanding for me.

I think a vpn operated by mozilla is at least something that I can have trust in.
