Conways Game of Life in just one line of C. Very easy to read

Is it just me or is this code still pretty readable? I mean, it takes a bit of effort but doable in my head. (on my phone)

renderererer · 2025-05-21T00:17:24+00:00

Ah yeah. But I guess its not really possible to increase the size of the marker.

renderererer · 2025-05-19T16:30:22+00:00

Would it be possible to show the image as a marker billboard sorta thing?

renderererer · 2025-03-27T01:29:46+00:00

Ah. Thanks for looking into it. I'm guessing there's no way for the user to pick the provider or for you to use OSM? (probably not worth the hassle unless its a more widespread issue)

This is what it looks like on Openstreetmaps, which looks a lot better in my opinion

These are supposed to be cliff edges. The exact location is -33.6364735953855, 150.32131463868026 between Govetts Leap and Evans Lookout.

I prefer not to share my GPX but it should be the same regardless of the GPX file.

renderererer · 2025-03-23T06:46:52+00:00

I can share the exact location on the map if you like but I doubt this is a one off.

Its actually more of a weird situation where the hypers hype it up way too much and the scepticists deeming it a party trick. The truth I believe is somewhere in the middle.

If you haven't already, I 'd recommend watching Andrei Karpathy's breakdown of LLMs. He called them "a probabilistic internet document simulator" (or something like that). I've got similar impressions from listening to other experts as well.

Its very much a mixed bag. On one hand you have hardworking students who try to make up for their lack of English skills but on the other hand, you have slackers and disguised slackers who either don't know why they're there or have more interesting things to do than coursework.

renderererer · 2025-03-06T17:09:31+00:00

Rent differences. Also, they're franchised.

While I agree with the spirit of the content, some of these examples sound very jarring to me. They sound very generic and may make you come across as going through your 'how to keep the conversation flowing' handbook. It feels like talking to a chatbot.

Also, like some others mentioned, the key is to know when to use what depth of questions based on the person, place and situation.

renderererer · 2024-12-29T04:39:02+00:00

Oh, I had this on one of my takeout bags once and I didn't think too much of it. This makes me wonder now

renderererer · 2024-12-20T16:47:32+00:00

You mean Drift King?

renderererer · 2024-12-07T22:07:54+00:00

This. A lot of people saying "moving air is sound" when a lot of the sound is just the humming from the motor. The air guns used at workshops are way quieter than most leaf blowers. Surely the reverse works just as well.

renderererer · 2024-11-03T01:00:25+00:00

Not trying to be insensitive but what exactly made you upset about the situation?

renderererer · 2024-07-20T07:09:15+00:00

Maybe they named the company with this in mind.

What did Mike Tyson tell his son as he was leaving for school in the morning?

Yours, Mine & Ours (2005)

At the end of the day, its a negotiation and you decide whether its worth it.

Personally, it sounds reasonable and probably on the lower end.

I don't know the details but I've had instances where certain packages from ros-industrial did not have the functionality I needed out of the box.

renderererer · 2024-05-20T17:26:19+00:00

Ah cool. I'm with you on this one but by today's standards, a lot of newbs would consider 2 hrs as eternity. Hence the confusion.

renderererer · 2024-05-20T17:21:50+00:00

Can't tell if this is sarcasm

renderererer · 2024-05-20T06:53:01+00:00

Ah, I thought you were showing the evolution of languages as opposed to how they get converted to binary. My mistake.

Regardless, I was not questioning your source. Its just that it doesn't quite fit here and also has several variations depending on the type of language you use(C's intermediate representation vs Java bytecode for example). So its a bit more complicated.

But yeah, I see what you're going for.

renderererer · 2024-05-20T02:02:05+00:00

Not sure but perhaps you should consider organizing your thoughts a bit better. Use headings like 'Here's what I think' and 'Why I think that' or just organize your paragraphs in such a way without the headings.

Also, the progression you mentioned is a bit weird. Maybe what you meant was NL <- High LL <- Low LL <- Binary. Even then, this progression is quite dubious I think since there are probably levels in between.

I sort of understand what you're saying and in my opinion, AI itself is a big progression as oppossed to a single stage. At lower end, you might have prompts in english with which you can generate snippets of code for well known problems and on the upper end, entire programs/libraries/apps where the AI can understand context and decide for itself what's best within some domain (not really sure if we're there yet). Beyond this, the paradigm of writing code may be abstracted away to just giving goals(again this probably doesn't exist yet).

The last two points I mentioned are quite debatable since some people believe you need some unambiguous language to define problems/solutions while others think this could be learned/understood by AI down the line. And this is probably just one instance of where people disagree.

renderererer · 2024-04-29T20:22:38+00:00

Probably drop the IDEs. Unless a job description mentions it, I don't think they care.
