The only vibe coding I enjoy is putting on headphones and vibing out while I code.

Leaving Facebook many years ago and twitter as soon as the logo changed were two of the best decisions of my life.

Version Control (Git)

I highly suggest using and learning git (the version control system). GitHub is a remote repository and uses git. missing.csail.mit.edu/2020/version...

Definitely should be using GitHub/gitlab or something for version control and a remote repository.

How can I delete someone else's post on the internet so nobody ever has to see it again?

Yes. So by that virtue DOGE itself is not transparent. The federal data here was already *always* available and is fully transparent. I don’t understand why DOGE even exists when we already have the GAO.

Don’t they just get this data from publicly available federal data?

National Science Foundation suspends salary payments, leaving researchers unable to pay their bills An NSF online payment system remained down after the federal funding freeze was lifted, leaving early-career scientists scrambling to pay bills

β€œon Thursday the [National Science Foundation]’s online payment system was still down, throwing lives into uncertainty. An NSF email seen by STAT suggested salaries had been suspended to β€œensure only eligible activities” are funded.” www.statnews.com/2025/01/30/t...

I appreciate that you post this all online available to the general public! I’ve personally been going through 15-445 during my free time to both brush up and solidify my DB internals knowledge.

They have contact emails on there. Would be a shame if someone sent them zip bombs and signed them up for multiple email mailing lists.

Ah yeah. Guess I just didn’t really ever consider them as different languages. I used to quite enjoy working with typescript because I’m very attracted to well defined types and data shapes. I now work with rust and go professionally and am just forever used to types.

Ah yeah, interesting. Guess I never thought of it that way haha. I always just sort of bucketed them in to the same thing.

Oh yeah, I’m familiar with Typescript sorry I should have put more context. I was a typescript dev for ~3 years in the past. That being said I always viewed them as essentially the same thing even though typescript added things on to JS.

22.11.2024 17:47 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Are typescript and JavaScript different languages? I mean there would be no typescript without JavaScript πŸ€” also I believe most libraries for typescript are actually JavaScript with JSDOC type hints.

List of mathematical symbols with their JavaScript equivalent.

Oh the UIUC one is interesting. I like how they encourage students to choose their own language.

Atproto nerds, what cool things have you seen people in the community do that could use a shoutout or some help? Boost for reach!

I’ve been wanting to potentially try to do something that mixes datafusion and ATproto. I’ve seen some folks doing some cool duckDB atproto stuff so it may be neat to building something using a different query engine.

I read DDIA as part of a reading group. It was wildly more digestible when you have people to discuss it with. I’m potentially planning on getting folks together for 6.5840 & CMU-15-445.
