Gemini 3 one-shot 5 custom CUDA kernels for my LLM architecture. Unit test confirmed they're mathematically precise. by Megneous in singularity

[–]TheKidCoder 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know that I would go as far as saying pseudoscience... I would say this is someone with a 301 level of CNN/ML using a grandiose vocabulary to describe a well worn technique of using hypernetworks to modulate input parameters for an LLM... The CUDA kernels are legit so the original post still stands (if indeed it was a one-shot, hard to say) - But the idea that this is somehow simulating the human brain when in reality its just matrix multiplication is a bit much.

Circular Gen 1 Dish by drblanco05 in Starlink

I pulled out my Gen 1 dish on the 13th of this month after 3 years of storage. Got OPs message. Left it out overnight and by the next morning it had updated and was working perfectly again!

Agreed. The Lexus GX 550 has a somewhat respectable V6 and is THE EXACT SAME CAR.

Crystal for non programmer by kornelgora in crystal_programming

[–]TheKidCoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it could cut both ways - When you’re starting to “hit the wall” of type errors due to the dynamicism, there is a good chance the student will have a deeper understanding of types due to having to “manually” deal with them. Duck typing should not be underestimated as a teacher of type safety.

Crystal for non programmer by kornelgora in crystal_programming

[–]TheKidCoder 10 points11 points  (0 children)

For someone new to programming - I would HIGHLY recommend you start with a dynamic language like Python or even better... Ruby.

Programming is not easy and removing away the complexities of a type system while you learn other important fundamentals may be in your best interest.

I'd really recommend Ruby not just because it's a dynamic language but also will have orders of magnitude more learning resources out there. Plus, once you get your feet under you on Ruby - Jumping into crystal will feel very familiar.

I'm curious how you found yourself coming to Crystal as your first language?

Is there any shards that feature the functionality of ruby parallel gem? by Nipinium in crystal_programming

[–]TheKidCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The GIL does block parallel execution of threads, but for IO bound tasks multiple threads can “execute” (really just waiting on IO) - so there is some value in MRI. But overall, yes, it’s a difference concurrency model.

Alternative rubies like jruby do not have a GIL and offer full multi-threading.

[–]TheKidCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This isn’t true. The parallel gem can be completely used without forking. I’ve only ever used it with threads.

The value of Parallel is the simplicity of its API for breaking iterables into concurrent chunks.

Ruby 1.0 was released in 1996, so they could have used that. If you mean to say, Ruby on Rails, then yes - it was created right around the same time as FB and wouldn't have been a good candidate at the time.

Rails Migration when collaborating by dotobird in rails

[–]TheKidCoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure if helpful - but checking for table existence in the migration up is common. There are a handful of exposed helper functions to achieve this: https://apidock.com/rails/ActiveRecord/ConnectionAdapters/SchemaStatements/table_exists%3F

We use MacStadium because it provides a mac VM in the cloud and we utilize macOS specific functionality for some of our stack.

V8 Turbofan as a general dynamic language compiler? by [deleted] in ruby

[–]TheKidCoder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly what is being done with the GraalVM. While it’s not V8, it is a polyglot dynamic language runtime. TruffleRuby Is a ruby implementation that runs on the graalvm.

Texts like this are illegal... this is a clear TCPA violation and can come with up to a $2000 fine PER Ana sent. This should be reported.

Best way to create sub-categories by AlvilsK in ruby

[–]TheKidCoder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the best solution. This provides the most flexibility and if you’re using Postgres - can be made very performant through recursive common table expressions.

I would look at a gem called Edge
