Lastly, I think the Wikipedia page on Expression Templates does a good job at explaining how it works & other applications of the technique/pattern (It also uses a 3D Vector example).

3D Vector class in C++ implemented w/ Expression Templates. The root motivation behind this approach is that you can "lazily evaluate" & compose vectors expressions together, and avoid the redundant loops & memory allocations associated with typical or naive CPU based vector operand implementations.

just finished reading this book. would recommend if you have any interest in social and/or economic networks and want a light intro. a majority of the metrics & models (ex: centrality, schelling) are explained with language and images rather than math notation which is nice.

The EPA has eliminated its research division, which for decades has provided the science behind regulations on clean air, clean water, and toxic chemicals.

The US can afford to monitor, research, and regulate the impacts of industries on human and environmental health. We are just choosing not to.

they look super pretty. the efficiency losses are unfortunate, but it'd be interesting to see if aesthetics are enough to stimulate adoption. i've always seen the small scale of solar PVs and their capacity to be distributed in urban areas as one of their boons and nice colors could help w/ that

wtf. Why would the llm ever lie to me. It said i asked a "great question." It said "absolutely --- you're spot on!" There's no way.

KJam @kjam.bsky.social · Jul 16

only like 3 people will see it... don't worry about it. no, maybe 2 people. trust me. shit, it might even be 1 person. only 1 person will see it. it's the same as ZERO people seeing it. trust me. trust me.
