I think it was xbox?

This is the first time I see "SGD" to mean "standard gradient descent" and not "stochastic gradient descent".

Oh that's cool. `find` is another tool I thought could benefit from io_uring like `ls`. I think it's definitely worth enabling io_uring for single threaded applications for the batching benefit. The kernel will still spin up a thread pool to get the work done concurrently, but you don't have to manage that in your codebase.

Author of the project here! I have a little write up on this here: https://rockorager.dev/log/lsr-ls-but-with-io-uring

Hello!

I'm the developer of this game. Thanks very much for your interest and discussion here :)

I'm starting to feel like I didn't go into enough detail with my post, since there's a lot I could talk about and also a lot I could benchmark to give you some actual numbers on performance. But maybe I'll leave that for a different post in the future.

The game I'm developing is a commercial project, so it would be silly to be on the front page of HN and not try to direct people towards the commercial side of things. Here is the link to the game's steam page, you can wishlist and maybe buy the game when it's released so I can afford living expenses and expensive coffee beans: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3656660/Deep_Space_Exploi...

Thank you! :)

we just started off as a side project and thought the name fitted well. With the strands, graph type structure, connections...

We didn't think of getting people to use it until we found it was solving a real pain point for people, so weren't worried about trademarks or names. There was no other helix db so that was good enough for us at the time.

My understanding is that "ad-hoc" in this context means that you are not defining a single generic implementation but adding individual impls for specific types. There's no fundamental difference between Java's overloading and Rust's implicitly inferred trait implementations in my opinion.

Rust's implementation is more orthogonal, so specifying which impl you want explicitly does not require special syntax. It's also based on traits so you'd have to use a non-idiomatic style if you wanted to use overloading as pervasively as in Java. But are those really such big differences? See my reply to the original where I post an example using Rust nightly that is very close to overloading in other languages.

I agree, but I have to point out that if you're gonna be like that, then you should be explicit about your final

    return 0;

It is possible in theory to speed up existing configure scripts by switching interpreter from /bin/sh to something that scans file, splits it to independent blocks and runs them in parallel.

Is there any such previous work?
