  • Yeah the people of Gaza don’t want to die either. Israel would have 100% destroyed all their homes and moved in by now otherwise.

    This is why it’s such a complicated situation. Everyone at the top is a complete piece of shit and it’s the civilians on both sides that pay the price.

    No one is saying defend the terrorists. They are saying accurately report the genocide that is being waged against the civilians.

    Half the population is too young to vote. So you can’t say they brought it on themselves.




  • Actually jit languages can outperform compiled languages by using runtime analysis to perform tiered compilation and profile guided optimisations.

    C# has made some great strides in this regard.

    All the normal optimisations are applied when it is compiled to byte code. Like loop unrolling etc.

    Then once it detects the hot paths during execution it can apply even more based on how it is called. It can also do optimisations that aren’t possible at initial compile time.

    Dynamic PGO it’s called. It’s a really interesting topic.









  • It’s amazingly good at moderating user content to flag for moderator review. Existing text analysis completely falls down beyond keyword filtering tbh.

    It’s really good at sentiment analysis. Which is great for things like user reviews. The Amazon ai notes on products are actually brilliant at summarizing the pros and cons of a product. I work for a holiday let company and we experimented with using it to find customers we need to follow up with and the results were amazing.

    It smashes other automated translating services as well.

    I use it a lot as a programmer to very quickly learn new topics. Also as an interactive docs that you can ask follow up questions to. I can pick up a new language as I go much faster than with traditional resources.

    It’s honestly a complete game changer.
