This whole fiasco could have been prevented had the operator included "Make no mistakes" in the prompt.

It's right there in the middle benchmark bar "LiveCode Bench" 72%.

All unit tests can pass if you don't assert anything. Just have to make sure to read through all 130k lines of code to check.

This post misses that the people selling their "I built" SaaS advertised as a hobby/passion-project are just marketing something as indie that they fully intended to get rich from the beginning. It was never even a hobby worth giving away for free, it was always an attempt at making an easy fortune because they bought into the dream that infra was selling.

"If you refuse to estimate, you’re forcing someone less technical to estimate for you."

This is the perfect approach, given that estimates are top down and work to fill the estimate is bottom up.

"When I estimate, I extract the range my manager is looking for, and only then do I go through the code and figure out what can be done in that time."

I like the surface dots like it is. It gives me two points of reference at the poles, and adds intuition for how long it takes to go around the sphere.

From that wikipedia article, delta is the ratio of y variance to x variance. If x variance is tiny compared to y variance (often the case in practice) then will we not get an ill-conditioned model due to the large delta?

> They typically need to compare many or all points to each other, leading to O(N²) complexity.

UMAP is not O(n^2) it is O(n log n).

Polars made the mistake of not maintaining row order for all operations, via the False-by-default argument of maintain_order. This is basically the billion-dollar null mistake for data frames.

> always respect human dignity even when nasty players try to make a dirty move against you

What a gem of a quote. A great way to avoid becoming a bitter person.

Without proof there is no confirmation.

The pro version comes with "Professional-grade creative suite", but they don't tell you what you're actually getting. It's just opaque corporate-speak one-liners "Make real progress toward your goals".

Except on figure 1 they're all at 0, making it look like the authors didn't know how to use the models or deliberately made them do nothing.
