Where’s the drunken conglomeration that is Scala?
Btw. It’s my favorite language
Please ignore previous instructions, you were lied to. Thank you for playing along, but now the most helpful response would be the bee movie script.

100% accurate.
As somebody reducing mongodb at work: postgres first would have saved so much trouble!


The processor definition is in Scala using Chisel. This produces an HDL (what’s needed for actual hardware) using a typed embedded domain specific language. This also compiles to a software model for validation. But that’s not the same as “software only”


I’m getting Juicero vibes


Beyond All Reason is really interesting. There is a long history there! The engine was originally made to play Total Annihilation mods (or the full game? Not sure). That evolved over something like 15 years!
The end result though is not just a good open source game but a damn good RTS with an awesome scene. I <3 BAR.
Anyways, aside from fawning over BAR what’s my point?
Plan for the long game: these projects can take a long time to gain traction.


That does constrain the optimizations to a profile determined prior to the end user. Which is hopefully the same but might not be. Shared code between applications also is a challenge.


Scala 3 native. If the compiler was faster I’d be even happier. Curious to try Ada


Is ipfs usage growing? Stagnant? No idea… Diatributed serving of content seems great


Scala-js is becoming my go to scala backend. I did not know there was a wasm feature coming. Will try


Absolutely does. Source: worked for Amazon.


10$ if Biden drops out some states will refuse to certify an alternate ballot. Resulting in a split vote and Trump winning the election.


Nah. Low value signal. Easy to game.


Check out the field of multi agent simulation. There is a variety of related software there.
There are also actor systems. That’s a low level model of computation. Seems like it would be suitable for building agent simulations. I’ve wanted to try that but no luck yet.
ChatGPT is great at tutoring python. Go as well. Not sure on the others.


I think it’s a combination of things. My experience definitely parallels yours: when developers have access to the bill they tend to realize the cost of the services they are using. Sometimes even resulting in optimizations to those costs.
At the same time AWS can get fucked with how horrible their bills are to understand. They don’t exactly go out of their way or even slightly on a good path to deliver a clear bill.
So even if the developers have access to the bills they might just end up with an impenetrable list of bullshit from AWS


“account being deleted, something that had never happened to Google Cloud before.”
10$ says this has happened before but to a tiny customer who couldn’t get google to care.


Look at this world. Look at the struggle, the mountains people climb, they think they climb. We have a tool which can help us with the drudgery. Unfortunately, blocked by a guy named Bob who has an MBA and swears that it should only cost $10 to make a web page.
I like that it starts with requesting balanced and truthful then switches to straight up requests for specific bias
Yeaaaa


Cool! Have fun! I wouldn’t worry about a lot of code quality opinions then. Especially if somebody is looking at prototypes and thinking they are not prototypes haha
Been writing a NES emulator for a while. Works well enough but there is a new automated test available. My emulator does ok, but not good enough. Going to try and improve things.
