Explore building a Node.js addon with HPX, a C++ parallelization framework. This article covers the integration challenges, such as managing asynchronous operations and reducing performance overhead. Learn how batch predicate functions can enhance the performance of complex algorithms like countIf and sort, while simpler tasks see limited gains. Ideal for developers interested in combining JavaScript with parallel C++ capabilities, the guide includes practical examples and benchmark results.
Very cool art movement: it's essentially a prototypical form of Photoshop/meme culture as protest against the Nazis. John Heartfield is my favorite Dada artist.
Perhaps his most famous piece is a photo of Hitler captioned "millions stand behind me," showing a donor passing him stacks of cash.
All I had to do was update the rules for Adblock Plus free version. I'd been getting the warnings for several days, then yesterday it would only let me watch 3 videos. I then updated AB+ rules and nothing pops up and things just play like "normal."
All I had to do was nothing. Yesterday I said to myself, this is the end, I'll never go back, never again attempt to view a video on it, because 99% of the time they'll ask me to purchase premium, please dear self, find new hobby. Today my muscle memory took me once more to YT and there are no ads and no popups begging me for money. They pulled me back in.
I'm using not recently updated uBlock Origin + FF.

I see this kind of language all the time on HN. Reminds me of "This one hurts, it really hurts. I think this hurts worse than Musk buying/poisoning/killing Twitter. I've mentioned this before but a keyboard feels like an extension of your body". The context was Microsoft closing the support forum for some keyboard software they hadn't updated in years.
The top comment from that thread seems relevant: People need to take a break. Being terminally online and complaining about everything is not a healthy way of life.
Semantic Kernel and LangChain are both geared towards NLP but they have different takes on it. While LangChain revolves around creating sequences of calls known as "Chains", SK employs a "Kernel" to manage these sequences and has a "Planner" to auto-create chains for new user needs.
SK steps up the game with plugins supporting both semantic and native functions, which isn't a feature in LangChain. Also, SK has a memory feature to store context and embeddings, broadening its use case.
Moreover, SK is more welcoming to C# integration alongside Python, and has a knack for blending AI services like OpenAI with conventional coding, which LangChain doesn't offer.
So, in a nutshell, while there are similarities, SK packs more features and a bit of a different approach compared to LangChain.
Not sure if I agree here. Langchain's LLMChains while initially popular, is not what people have been using. With function calling and agent+tools, both langchain and chatgpt do quite a lot of the same things that semantic kernel does.
You've mentioned a few things that langchain doesn't offer and I'm not sure how true that is. Langchain has a typescript offering which is easier to interweave with traditional coding, and if you're even the tiniest bit serious about your ML system then you'll likely use python anyway.
Langchain is a bunch of thin abstractions that can quickly scale up with the pace of growth in the LLM world. All the features you mention are now mature features within langchain too.
I'm genuinely interested in semantic kernel, and langchain has obvious pitfalls. But I am yet to find another solution that moves as quickly, integrates broadly, has a large community and still ends up being an acceptable product from a quality standpoint.
I don't think you're wrong. StatefulSets are simply on a "higher level" than raw Deployments and manually provided PersistentVolumes/Claims. I am thinking about writing another article that shows how to use StatefulSets in similar scenarios.
