I have a great aunt who lives in Tonga - my Grandma spoke to her a couple days ago. Apparently people on the main Island (Tongatapu) are mainly fine - her main issue is a bunch of ash on her roof, which apparently is going to cost for $500 to get removed from local tradespeople.
I bought Ben's kits and built the 8 bit breadboard computer. It was the most educational experience I've ever had learning computer architecture. I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a lot of work though and breadboards are fraught with issues.
The difference between this and the apple-1 though is that Ben's computer is effectively a third gen computer on breadboard, whereas the apple-1 is pure fourth gen. I guess the fair comparison is ben's 6502 kit.
Honestly I had an RTX Titan for home use for a while. Eventually I moved to just using a 2080 Super and it performed at nearly the same power for my models. If you don't need ALL the extra memory and have the space for a triple slot then the better value proposition by far for last gen seemed to be a good super.
I think the fastest way to grow is to have your code reviewed. If you're not in a professional software setting then making a pull request to an active project with patient contributors will probably be your best bet. Find an open issue for k8s, docker(-cli), figure out how to fix it, open a PR and I would try to preface it with a "this is my first PR, I'm very open to critique" type of intro. With any lucky you will find someone who can gently (or maybe not so) nudge you in directions of better quality code.
all I can say is that we have a 2 yr old and a 4.5 month old. I have no idea what we are going to do when my wife returns from mat leave to work. all options currently have high impact on both of our workable time. (we are > 13 hrs flight from any family)
This is awesome!!!! It would be cool if there were some binary releases, at least for the shooter example. I'm not sure if there's anything huge blocking that though?
Also I'm admittedly not rust-proficient yet but would the cargo run command be cross-platform dependent, or is this a windows-only thing right now?
I had a team where we always talked about our bus factor - how many of us it would take to be hit by a bus to royally screw the team. We also got nervous when too many of us shared an elevator together, hah.
In all seriousness though, knowledge silo'ing can be a nasty problem
I used to LOVE reading GameFAQs walkthroughs for RPGs as a kid. The fact it was just a big text document made it super easy to hide in my "computer typing" classes too.
I'm kind of sad that the whole scene has largely slowed down, at least for modern games... Now you can just find video guides on any subsection of a game you're playing; or follow an IGN guide. I have huge respect for authors of the oldschool guides though.
It would help if you defined exactly what type of issues you experienced. Packet loss? Early RSTs? Latency? Single AZ or cross AZ? Same for VPCs or NAT'd internet traffic?
You should take some tcpdumps and open a support case.
Yeah you're right it is. I was strongly considering just writing a bash script but I had a bunch of probabilistic stuff going on for using effects, so stuck with python.
Having had to do some mass audio stuff on datasets recently I discovered SoX - a self proclaimed "swiss army knife" for sound processing. Delighted to find multiple bindings in Go, I eventually decided to just do it in python as there was a very solid library there and it was just simpler for my use case.
Honestly it sounds more like OP is stuck int the bad code trap because they work alone. Couple that with web dev and of course the world would seem bleak. Frontend code can be beautiful and maintainable but not having senior people to help you even know what that means sounds frustrating to me. my vote is to join a company as an intern/junior and grow.
