If I sound lazy just ignore my tone cause I’m always gonna answer when you call my phone
"A calculator app? Anyone could make that." Not true. A calculator should show you the result of the mathematical expression you entered. That's much, much harder than it sounds. What I'm about to tell you is the greatest calculator app development story ever told.
ngl i don't really understand reborrows in rust. why is it doing all this?
idk, but I always loved how Copernicus was obsessed with planets orbiting in circles, and didn't want to admit they were ellipses. but in a way he was right! because you actually can think of orbits as circles - great circles on a sphere, stereographic-projected to a plane
is there some connection between this pattern and planets orbiting the sun elliptically
this is also true for rappers
wrappers who: - deeply understand human emotion - nail timing & distribution - build fast & iterate socially - treat narrative as a product will own real surface area. most wrappers suck because they’re either boring, derivative, or function first. but a wrapper with taste,…
How have they not made a foldable kindle? It wouldn't even need a folding screen, they could just use two totally separate displays, and it would make it so much more portable
people who talk about the number of dependencies a library or project has are crazy. Way better would be to talk about the number of lines of code in your dependency graph. Otherwise, using a few small dependencies somehow looks worse than using one gigantic dependency
another fun example is that type inference for types of rank > 2 is undecidable
Something about the number 3 somehow makes a technical problem impossible to solve once it crosses this boundary. For example, 1. 2-body problem has a straightforward solution following Kepler’s laws, while 3-body problem doesn’t have a general solution. 2. 2n+1 is trivial…
how is meta ad targeting so good? i go on instagram and the first two ads are perfectly tailored to my interests. then i open reddit and the ad tells me to quit my job to pursue my true calling of constructing submarines. wtf
You could buy a bigger monitor for $1000 or you could buy$15 glasses for farsighted people that make nearby objects look bigger. seems pretty obvious to me
anthropic should release a model named Clod that's dumb as rocks
the main design flaw with santa and his reindeer is that he has no braking power. an immediate improvement would be to have donner and vixen on the back and pointing in reverse, but that’s just a stopgap until im done designing the omnidirectional version with vtol capabilities
finding react/wasm + typescript + rust to be a really really good stack. complex business logic you don't want to get wrong, or anything that has to be fast = rust. ui logic goes in typescript and react
