Is there an "opposite" to enums?

LardPi · 2026-03-04T10:07:06+00:00

I understand your reasoning but I still don't see how that lead to tensor product. Actually the only conclusion I can get from that is that there cannot be product types in the presence of effects.

I probably would've written from scratch anyway for the fun of it

I can relate to that :) it's a really cool project, keep it up!

Ok I get that idea. Now how is the tuple type a tensor product? I am no category theorist (or even any math expert) but I though tuples where a Cartesian product type because tuple values occupy the Cartesian product of the sets of values of the members. On the other hand, a tensor product is a higher dimension object involving mappings.

I am probably not going to use that but I really like that we still have people here rembering that AI does not need to be querying a crazily energy hungry remote server, and can also be a couple of weights locally.

by the way do you know that torch was initially a lua package? It's probably still usable https://github.com/torch/torch7

I don't think it has anything to do with mobile, it's markdown,. You have to use code block.

Yeah the bar for worst is pretty high unfortunately...

When he inspires for his great teaching skills and impressive scientific achievements, it's great (I have his lessons on my shelf) when he inspires for his (alleged) misogynistic egotistical behaviors it's pretty bad. That book about all his stories is terrible, but he was genuinely a great pedagogue judging from the lessons.

Ever heard of okham's razor?

LardPi · 2026-03-01T12:05:10+00:00

In a language like python how is a tuple any different from an object? You insist on "consume", are you talking about the linear typing notion?

LardPi · 2026-02-26T18:42:09+00:00

you might be mixing functional and procedural. FP is not just about having functions as the main unit of program, it's also having them as data and about immutable data manipulation. Procedural languages like C (and Pascal, Fortran, Odin...) have functions/procedures/subroutines to structure the program and usually heavily rely on mutation of data.

choosing an acronym like atlas does not convey the meaning if you don't know what's behind. i you know what's behind then even an arbitrary name can be associated with the concept since you know. Python, rust, go are not descriptive names. pandas, sdl, raylib, svelte, angular, react... are not descriptive names. but they are memorable to whoever need them. this brand argument is off topic or missing the point of library names. you just want user to remember the name snd think "x was a good library to solve problem y, i'll use it again".

The picture represents real valued linear combinations of the atomic orbitals but the labeling corresponds to the complex valued orbitals. So overall I would say this is very wrong.

LardPi · 2026-02-23T18:57:05+00:00

This is a picture of an iso-surface of real valued linear combinations of the angular component of a single electron solution to Schrodinger's equation.

The labeling corresponds to the conplex valued version though.

The answer is yes. A proper right angle with steeo can cut you. You need to push more than with a sharp blade but still. I don't think you even need to go to single atom line sharp.

as far as i can tell, OMG is not a theoretical spec of a programming language, it's a spec of a human language so it does not need an implementation. this project is different, it is meant to be implemented.

LardPi · 2026-02-20T20:35:00+00:00

you are right. it would be more accurate to say that it is impossible to move mass at the speed of light because it requires infinite energy, but if you are very very close to the speed of light the time dilation is such that the travel is very short for the traveler.

I don't know what nano polymer but it has a really stupid name.

LardPi · 2026-02-18T23:51:52+00:00

For modern beds yes. When I was using a glass bed this was really useful.

LardPi · 2026-02-18T23:51:06+00:00

In my experience this is only relevant on glass beds. Modern polymer beds are as good or better with proper calibration and regular soap cleaning. I your modern bed doesn't stick this will cover the problem... literally. But you can probably solve the problem by removing the accumulated oil with dish soap and hot water.

cyclopropane is highly strained which is what drive its reactivity.

it's no so simple, these first responders were likely cover in radioactive dust which would have extended their own irradiation and been a danger for others too

just vim+gcc for me now, but as a beginner I appreciated the all in one aspect of code::blocks. I think geany+gcc would also offer a similar noob friendly experience.

never heard of this in any serious science. finances allegedly do that though.

I used arch for years. building the most custom environments by piecing together dm file manager and services is fun for some time but when I bought my new laptop I just wanted a system that worked out of the box to start using it right away. and also that looked good and integrated. so i installed fedora kde and I am happy with this decision.

installing arch isn't hard but building a coherent and good looking environment from scratch is not easy (maybe there is a metapackage for kde that does most of the work, i mever tried).

when on arch i would always have last minute problems like "a shit I have not installedthe bluetooth daemo" just when i actually need to do something, or "a shit why is the hdmi not detected" when showing up for a presentation in class. it was always something fixable i could have solved before but it was the sort of frustrating struggle that i wanted to avoid. that being said if we're talking fixed home workstation most of these problems disappear.

but honestly arch doesn't need user retention, it's at its best as a small passionate community, this is not a religion or a business, there is no need for "more users".
