@Sebasti66855537 Almost certainly it is RAM configuration / clocking issues. Combinations of DDR5 RAM are restricted with most motherboard configurations. I'm running 2 48GB DIMMs to run at faster RAM speeds than my motherboard can run 4 DIMMs. After months, had to slow it a bit to be stable.

@kincsescsaba Javascript - Chrome debugger + editor is all you need. C++ + Emacs Compile-mode is fine for some things. The Spacemacs + IDE mode is nice. Java: Visual Studio Code or IntelliJ is required. Visual Studio is good for C++ on Windows. Android Studio is required for Android.

@indianloonie @pattonoswalt I'm getting there, a bit every day for nearly 2 years... I could understand most of what they said.

@mkt_sentiment In the end, he made terrible decisions, and may have been a terrible person in certain key ways. But this is a very wise & perceptive point of view.

Highly recommended: Michael from VoltPaperScissors has invented a DIY robot that uses a smartphone instead of a microcontroller and a simple light-sensor-transistor circuit to control the motors based on the brightness of the scree…lnkd.in/gyHe9fKi lnkd.in/gaA4kCZ8

Building robots that cost thousands or tens of thousands is just not viable for most use cases. We need to solve the hardware problem along with the software problem.

Very sad news. Everyday Robots developed general purpose robots that could clean cafeteria tables, separate rubbish from recycling & could even open doors. The robots use AI & reinforcement learning to adapt to new situations & improve their skills. #ai wired.com/story/alphabet…

@ylecun Javascript. I wish Javascript had become the ML orchestration language rather than Python. While the main language is single threaded, many things are async at that level, multithreaded in implementation. Plus with WebWorkers (another thread), WASM...
