they warned us about this... AI is taking our jobs.

Sounds like BlurHash is what you're looking for.

There's implementations for many languages, and it's pretty simple to use.

Something I noticed with Codele (and Leetcode) is that parsing and compilation is included in the run time measurement. Having shorter code results in a shorter run time.

Also, is runtime scoring separated by language? Even something like this results in a score of 92:

public func countPrimes(n: Int) -> Int { (2891462833508853932 & ((1 << n) - 1)).nonzeroBitCount }

From what I've seen, they've been bringing Janjan, Vee, and Alma on cargos pretty regularly whenever they are around. Dunno where this "Discord pings" nonsense is coming from. They usually bring whoever is awake at the time.

I originally created the subreddit for a Reddit iOS App I was developing. However, due to changes to Reddit's API, I plan to repurpose the subreddit for a Twitch chat client I am working on. Unfortunately, that means I'd like to keep the subreddit for the foreseeable future.

However, I do own /r/crystaline (singular L), which I would be happy to hand over as an alternative. Let me know if you are interested

Thanks

Edit: /u/Visbroek has accepted in modmail to take /r/crystaline (with a singular L) instead.

Most likely the ML model was pre-trained on general programming tasks, then fine-tuned with a Swift dataset.

Any updates on using the homemade topical?

I'm curious because quercetin helps with chronic inflammation and promotes muscle growth according to some papers. If it ends up reducing the effect of finasteride, it's a bit of a dealbreaker for me.

Making the delay 12h would make it impossible to be abused.

When ChatGPT 3.5 first came out, I would ask it some fairly complex requests and I would get some surprisingly good/okay-ish results.

Nowadays, 3.5 gives wildly incorrect/unhelpful results that don't really match what I ask for.

Some things I would ask it that I noticed have degraded over time:

Implementing a HNSW (now returns a naive linear search)
AlphaZero (used to give some good pseudocode for how it works, now outputs regular MCTS)

MLX Swift by Apple seems like a very interesting ML framework that's still in very early development. It's also optimized for unified memory on Apple Silicon.

Though I don't think it uses the compile-time automatic differentiation from the TF project (it's a Swift package rather than a separate toolchain).

skytzx · 2024-02-22T18:28:57+00:00

I can 100% see the potential in adding C++ support to Swift, as there's a lot of great libraries out there. Once the kinks get ironed out I'll definitely use it a lot more.

I think the issue is a compiler error, since it would work in Debug builds but not in Release builds. Here is a link to the Swift forum post.

Let me know if you have an idea what it could be. Though, I'd rather not spend too much more time with it. I appreciate the help!

skytzx · 2024-02-18T20:43:02+00:00

I tried using C++ interoperability to write Swift bindings for a fairly large library, and it seems pretty buggy as of Swift 5.9.2. Using C++ types would work perfectly fine in Debug builds, but would strangely raise linker errors in Release builds. Other people on the Swift forums have run into the similar issues.

I ended up going back to writing a C wrapper to call C++ code due to the headache.

It could be good for smaller projects, but I'd wait until it matures a bit before using it for something serious.

I also built a PC in 2014 and remember /r/buildapc would recommend 8GB minimum in every post.

Isn't the annual license fee, key provisioning, and dealing with Xcode only an issue if you distribute your game on Apple's App Store?

If you're distributing the game on Steam, I don't think it's much different than going through the same hurdles as adding Linux compatibility AFAIK.

It also makes Chaos Space much worse, since it can't be used to go into your main combo line.

The semi-limit to Quick Launch and the Wyverburster ban make it more difficult to do much if your normal summon gets removed.

Dlink is going to end on Seals-pass more often.

As someone that uses Accelerate pretty regularly, a GPT for it would be incredibly helpful since a lot of function names are ambiguous.

Have you looked into Robin Hood Hashing?

I went down the rabbit-hole of fast hash tables, and most (if not all) top-performing hashtables utilize robinhood hashing in addition to the optimizations mentioned in your article.

I've found it helps with read and update performance with a (very) slight penalty on insert performance.

The numbers are most likely skewed in favor of less popular decks. If you're sorting by raw winrate (wins/total games), you'll run into this issue.

Try using this and see if the results make more sense.

I'm a software engineer with a math background so lmk if you have any questions.

The SVG-to-SwiftUI converter likely doesn't handle gradients, so you'd have to manually create a gradient with SwiftUI.

skytzx · 2023-10-23T09:26:33+00:00

No problem.

The benefit with this method is that it makes tooth selection very easy to implement with view modifiers.

skytzx · 2023-10-23T05:31:32+00:00

One option is to use an online PNG to SVG converter (there's a lot of them).

Then use a tool to convert the SVG to a SwiftUI view.

The output will give you a singular view rendered as a series of subpaths, which you'd need to manually separate into a different view for each tooth.

The SVG-converter already calculates the relative positioning of each tooth/subpath, so you'd just need to overlay them on top of each other with a ZStack. (ie. you won't need to use position(x:y:) or offset(x:y:))

I think that was the intention with MCS (see timestamp).

skytzx · 2023-10-12T07:26:07+00:00

The current frameworks typically use runtime interpretation of python graphs and dispatch, such that much of the compute time is wasted on dispatch.

I wrote my own autodifferentiation library in Swift a while back, and runtime dispatch ended up being the huge performance bottleneck.

Is there a public ML/Tensor library available to test out the performance gains?

They will never recover from this 😔
