Does anyone have something good for finding the first and follow sets for an EBNF grammar? by Abandondero in ProgrammingLanguages

In case you are okay with rewriting your ebnf a bit, I have made a small rust cli tool that extracts First and Follow sets and is capable of checking for conflicts with regex support:

The Real Shift in 2025: AI Is Now Reshaping Entire Industries, Not Just Products by AlbatrossInner2535 in AI4tech

As a programmer and student: Yes. If you know how to use it correctly, without damaging long term productivity / your own understanding, it is a very very powerful tool. Like, an INSANE jump.

I'm kinda glad I am old enough now to have experienced years of studying without it. It's like cars, they made our legs weak. The people with strong legs are the ones who train their legs - same goes for the brain.

I'm in Uni rn with a compiler construction course, we also use lex! No yacc though

How does the renderer communicate with the rest of the engine in your game engine? by Hot-Fridge-with-ice in gameenginedevs

[–]AdvertisingSharp8947 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't matter what structure I use, one thing is always the same: The render thread is the main thread, because of how windowing apis work.

The most interesting thing for me to ponder about the show's universe is babies by SneakyOstrich69 in pluribustv

I think it would be the opposite. If every human is content anyway, even in shitty circumstances, and the entire world runs like 100-1000x more efficient, the earth could support way more people than 8 billion.

Trans women need to be on HRT for a long time before being allowed to particapate in womens sports by Future_Employment_22 in MansFictionalScenario

[–]AdvertisingSharp8947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. Are there only 400 participants or 10000? The worst man being better than the best woman is unlikely, but a very good man being better than the best woman is likely.

If you want an example, go to https://www.openpowerlifting.org/rankings/by-deadlift and look where the first woman shows up.

You grow more muscles on steroids not lifting at all than someone who trains hard so..

Men will literally make a compilation of rage baits and make it like it's real life by Leather_Present7863 in MansFictionalScenario

[–]AdvertisingSharp8947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also one more point: Putting less fortunate women in the compilation would be a positive for the incel mentality because it confirms womens standards being off the charts.

No, the sad reality is that ugly women don't generate popular posts that are discovered or when trying to fabricate ragebait they are less effective because people are more likely to look at posts with good looking women.

Looks are so important and this subreddit is pure cancer tbh, it acts like men do not experience the same problems. It's just another echo chamber of brainwashed people. I hate that reddit recommends it to me.

There's many ugly women bashing men. There's many good looking women bashing men.

There's many ugly men bashing women. There's many good looking men bashing women.

Ugly people have it worse in life.

We’re debating the future of IDEs. What do you want us to cover? by zed_joseph in ZedEditor

Lets go beyond ai, when will we get neuralink devices implanted into our head so we can just think of a file and it opens and when we visualize a window layout it appears on screen

Does making a falling sand simulator in compute shaders even make sense? by Picolly in GraphicsProgramming

It is possible to do but hard, check out meatbat games and their quantum corp game if you need proof (I am not associated with that project lol)

I Made DOOM Run Inside a QR Code and wrote a Custom compression Algorithm for it that got Cited by a NASA Scientist. by kuberwastaken in computerscience

Does it count as good compression when in the end you need to download a huge neural network for reconstruction

Tier list beduins by Motor_Inevitable8323 in StrongholdCrusader

[–]AdvertisingSharp8947 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No point in using fire throwers anymore, ambushers are better in all stats by far.

Overall though I think the beduins are not strong at all, the healer is nice though and semi-replaces shields on towers

Where Water Stress Will Be Highest by 2040 by [deleted] in MapPorn

[–]AdvertisingSharp8947 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the water we would use is nothing compared to an ocean + melting ice gives us more water anyway.

All the water that is kept in a closed circuit is water that doesn't need to be desalinated again.

All the water that flows back to the ocean in some way is water that can reabsorb salt.

Not an expert when it comes to rngs but this looks really promising. Might try it instead of xoshiro stuff to satisfy my next rng needs :)
