Cluster environment with virtualized cores may cause slower performance of Julia's parallel code. People recommend Threadpinnig.jl to solve the issues.

It's easy to add, yes. However, the basic @time macro outputs the info about allocations by default. So it is also easy to see if there is a problem.

Yeah, Julia's REPL deserves special attention as it allows to do the package management (by pressing "]"), look for the functions help ("?") and do shell operations (";") without leaving it.

Julia is not an alternative to Go. It is the alternative to Python (slow) and to C++ (hard and complex). Go is fast and simple but doesn't have abstractions to create complex code required by math libraries.

For newcomers my main tip is to use views for array slices (for example, via the @view and @views macros), since by default Julia creates copies of slices. Broadcast operation (the dot syntax) is another super useful instrument for speeding up vectorized operations. You can write fast GPU code with them without resorting to GPU kernels, in some cases. Although GPU kernel programming via CUDA.jl is convenient in Julia, once you get used to it.

Yeah, the title may suggest that productivity is still 10% out of 100% after CEOs fired half of developers believing that the rest will do all the job with the help of AI.

I don't think this forum has significant costs of running, especially considering it is not in development.

Somebody knows how a part of a complex system works. We can't say this for complex systems created with AI. This is a road into the abyss. The article is making it worse by downplaying the issue.

I swear, every fascist has the same playbook. They use the same phrases, same accusations, same lies, sometimes even same wordings. It is like they have a single hive mind - for which everyone else is the enemy and is subject to destruction or enslaving.

To be fair, not everything is someone's agenda. Indifference, ignorance and stupidity exist by their own. But hostile forces do like to multiply them.

How timely

> I don’t think the USA would have a shot at the trophy

With Trump in power they can grab it

And what to do with all of his supporters, which include the entire caste of billionaires, who control media and many other spheres of life, including the development of AGI?

Or until they have enough power and influence to hack the government so the money flow will never end

Everyone cares about the MAD doctrine, although some people with power may pretend they do not, while others may pretend they believe that those people with power don't care.

Don't forget you are expected to deliver x10 for the same pay, "because you have the AI now".

You should learn what the word "literally" means, apart from the truth about Ukrainian language.

> hundreds of millions of people who are against the war

Lie #1. If they were against the war there would be no war.

> That's not very bright of you, to put it mildly.

Lie #2. He tells facts.

> "just listen how silly Ukrainian sub-language sounds, lol".

Lie #3. This is not what Russian propaganda said. They said Ukraine will not allow to speak Russian and will punish for speaking it.

> Which is an argument every sane human being finds disgusting and stupid beyond all comprehension, of course.

The language itself is not guilty, of course. It's the speakers.

I don't think they want you to follow their behavior. They do want accountability, but for everyone below them, not for themselves.

better product = inflicting more suffering while generating more revenue

You don't need flakes or some fundamental understanding for a quick start. I simply add programs that I use to configuration.nix. This covers 95% of my use cases. For everything else I use containers. This may be not the nix way, but works super reliably and without much trouble.

True. After Turing and Co, mathematical logic became almost like applied theoretical computer science.

I wouldn't say so. The first years of the largest war in Europe since WWII have shown that a leaderless EU is incapable of making important decisions crucial to its own survival, as a fallen Ukraine would have led to a divided EU where many countries would be governed by authoritarian fascist regimes, such as the one in Hungary led by Orban.

I guess death threats would be next if that last prompt injection hadn't succeed. The gates of hell are effectively opened.

Most certainly, if you follow the news in politics

I think a good parallel language will be the one that takes your code written with tasks and channels, understands its logic, rewrites and compiles it in the most efficient way. I don't feel that I have to write something harder than that as a pity human.

Well, with generic programming constructs you have more freedom, and with more freedom you have more ways to shoot yourself in the foot. I don't think Julia has some illogical or inconsistent design decisions of its module system. In fact, it's better than many other because the order in which you import modules doesn't matter.

Is it newsworthy when cancer spreads from the liver to the brain in a patient? It is what cancer does, after all, and everyone knows that. So, why pay attention to it?
