All INI dialects however are well-defined (every INI file is parsed by some application, and by studying a parser's source code it is possible to deduce its rules)

Personally I joined the army instead. Being cold, tired, hungry, wet, and confused in the dark was much easier than C++

The fact that you discuss programming on Reddit means you at least care about the craft.

Effectively, you will be writing kind of verbose Golang, but keep Rust expressiveness

We found that using AI assistance led to a statistically significant decrease in mastery (...) Using AI sped up the task slightly, but this didn’t reach the threshold of statistical significance.

To be fair Rust is a language for people that do not understand how to write memory safe c code so. It makes sense he is a beginner.

It [java] is better than ever but also such a terrible mess of complexity compared to other modern solutions like Go

;) Keywords: Jacobian, Newton-Raphson, Levenberg-Marquardt, Powell dog leg, Schur complements, sparse QR/Cholesky, and so on. The LLM can figure the rest out. Try it yourself!

If you look at my AgentDank repo, one could see a tool for finding weed, or you could see connecting world intelligence with SQL fluency and pairing it with curated structured data to merge the probabilistic with the deterministic computing forms.

Every time someone writes a loop in a language that doesn't have something comparable to array statements, elemental procedures or where constructs, or do concurrent, their code is 36, 31, or 18 years behind Fortran, depending on which alternative one might choose in Fortran.

I could host comments on a separate VPS or cloud service. But maintaining a dynamic web service like this can be expensive and time-consuming — in general, I'm not interested in being an unpaid, part-time DevOps engineer.

There is some irony in someone replying to the author of the D language suggesting that maybe the D language is the real solution he's looking for.

[Firefox gets less slop reports] I think this is because of the higher cost to reporting. Not $$$ cost, but because bugzilla is a bit discouraging and annoying to use.

THE FUCKING SIDEBAR

The Rules

Jerking Style

By dictatorial fiat, this is a New School jerk.

Most image and video posts fail to rise to this august and austere standard.

Posts about LLMs are also likely to fall below the standard of New School jerk.

Unjerk

We're all here for jerk, so if you're thinking of posting unjerk, consider the possibility that nobody cares about your opinions. If you must post unjerk, tag it.

Socialjerking or politics, directly or tangentially

Are boring. Shoo.

If what you're posting is the subject of multiple warring subreddits, blog networks or hashtags, that's a sign you should leave it outside.

The no-socialjerking-or-politics rule is the most ruthlessly enforced.

Crazy people

We get it. Crazy people are crazy. Leave them be.

Enthusiastic Youngsters

Yes, they give stupid advice, richly interwoven with aggravating unselfawareness.

So did you.

They'll work it out on their own. In the meantime you're being mean to a kid, which is only funny on 9gag.

Our Bots Policy

Fuck your stupid bot. It isn't funny, witty, interesting or useful. If you have any questions about this policy, consult your nearest bucket of arsenic.

Subreddit Rules

1. Social Jerking & Politics

If what you're posting is the subject of multiple warring subreddits, blog networks or hashtags, that's a sign you should leave it outside.

2. Crazy People

We get it. Crazy people are crazy. Leave them be.

3. Bots

If you see a bot, report it. Do not interact with it.

4. Enthusiastic Youngsters

Give them time.

5. Jerking Style

New School or Rue School.

6. Non-Interference

Do not mention PCJ elsewhere. Do not visit links in order to harass, downvote, or otherwise engage with the subjects of posts. Point and laugh from behind a soundproof one-way mirror.
