If your goal is to edit code and not discuss it aider also supports a watch mode. You can keep adding comments about what you want it to do in a minimal format and it will make changes to the files and you can diff/revert them.
> My experience is a first implementation / novice programmer will write Julia code of a similar speed to python.
No because of JIT compilation he would write code faster than Python by default. Now to truly rival optimized C++ code one has to do the tricks mentioned in this post like optimizing memory access, SIMD and maximizing instruction parallelism.
The key point is you are better off by default and can do some ugly stuff in the critical parts of the code while still using the same language.
You do NOT need this as a hobbyist. I will go as far to say it will be counter productive. Pickup Art of Electronics or the lab manual that comes with it instead.
One of the points of the talk is emphasis on working on "important" problems. It does make sense to not work on incremental things for merely publications so it is definitely good advice. However once you decide to do so what is "important" becomes a difficult question.
I like this article from Daniel Lemire which explores this further
I don't belong to the SC/ST group. I don't wear the thread and none of my friends (no matter which group they come from) do. So I am not sure what is your point? Once again this is some stupid journo not doing research and spreading FUD. If Westerners want to be moralizing the first thing they should start with is being sound about their research. Even actual issues will be dismissed in future by larger population in India if this is the kind of work that is presented as truth.
Completely agree.This is just governments as well as big tech on a power trip trying to censor things by whatever morals are in vogue now. It is quite insulting treating grown adults like "don't see this. we are telling you it is bad for you."
Agree 2 years is more than enough. Within the first 6 months of those 2 years the ones who had been there longer had no advantage. Guys who had been top at their local schools quickly caught up if they studied hard.
I second the experience of the other commenters. Keep it open long enough and it sucks up all the resources in non-chrome browsers. I also include Google Slides in my experience btw. It is more severe with Slides than docs.
Lots of us do. Firefox is my browser on all my devices. I do use Chrome when visiting Google Docs which I assume is deliberately sabotaged on Firefox though.
Hypothetical Example: I would tell my dad that I'll give a missed call and let it ring just thrice once I got safely to University from home.
Actual Example from my life: My dad had a cellular plan that had lots of free minutes of calling. So, I would just give him a missed call and he would call back. This was the early 2000s I think.
You should give https://regolith-linux.org/ a try. It's a Ubuntu based distro with i3 as WM. They have polished a few things here and there so you have icons for WiFi and easy access to settings.
It's always that kid. I did something similar in high school with luckily no serious repercussions but yup it was another kid who ratted me out. I could have changed my grades and stuff but luckily I was pretty content. The network admin who I really looked up to and asked lots of technical questions vouched for me. I think the fact that I only played around with the admin account for fun and never touched anything else helped my case.
I do a slightly different version of it. Where I imagine how someone I deeply admire would advise me in this situation. This kind of detachment allows me to say hard stuff to myself.
