Nix wants to cleans all procs of the build user, via setuid(uid) + kill(-1, SIGKILL)(github.com/NixOS/nix/bl...). When nix is run via apptainer/singularity with --fakeroot, it will kill all running procs of your current user even outside of apptainer. --pid is a good idea here...

github.com/albertz/wiki... Why game development is a great learning playground. Updated and resurrected article.

github.com/albertz/py_b... www.reddit.com/r/Python/com... Some updates to my #Python better_exchook, semi-intelligently print variables in stack traces. Better selection of what variables to print, multi-line statements in stack trace output, full function qualified name (not just co_name)

Google Scholar is messed up right now? The Transformer paper PDF links to some weird host, doesn't show other versions, and only shows the first author as sole author?

The same also for the LSTM paper after you click on 'cite'.

I just learned that Torch ctc_loss calculates the wrong gradient (but when there was log_softmax before, it does not matter).

For the grad ctc_loss w.r.t. log_probs, it calculates exp(log_probs) - y, but correct would be -y. Some workaround: github.com/pytorch/pyto...

PS: First Bluesky post.
