Solving and benchmarking QUBO problems with Gurobi in Python
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1vija3m/solving_and_benchmarking_qubo_problems_with/
<!-- SC_OFF -->State-of-the-art classical optimizer Gurobi for Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization (QUBO) problems. The core gurobipy implementation for QUBO is relatively compact: ```python model = gp.Model() x = model.addMVar(n, vtype=GRB.BINARY) model.setObjective(x @ Q @ x, GRB.MINIMIZE) model.optimize() solution = x.X.astype(int) objective = model.ObjVal ``` Complete workflow in Python. First formulate a graph problem (weighted Max-Cut) as QUBO, solve it with Gurobi, benchmark increasingly large instances, and understand what the solver is doing beyond the optimize() call. Interested in feedback on the modeling, benchmarking methodology, and which additional Gurobi metrics would make the comparison more rigorous. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/Future_Ad7567 (https://www.reddit.com/user/Future_Ad7567)

Beyond Senior - Creating Hope
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1vkdq8p/beyond_senior_creating_hope/
<!-- SC_OFF -->Every time I leave a role I try and write up where my philosophy landed and what I want to take into my next role. Having seen this play out at enough companies over the years to where people progressively lose motivation and stop believing change is possible I've come to the opinion that one of the most valuable things we can do as engineering leaders is to provide hope. The post goes more into it, but I do not mean any vapid rah-rah motivational speeches, I mean earning back that hope every day by snowballing small wins into larger ones and making people believe that their effort matters. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/keyslemur (https://www.reddit.com/user/keyslemur)

DRY vs. SRP
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1virrlk/dry_vs_srp/
<!-- SC_OFF -->After re-reading "Clean Architecture" I ended up with some confusion regarding Bob's take on repetition and single responsibility. Ge defines the SRP as a function only serving one actor. Dies that mean, that repetitve code is justified according to him, as long as it serves seperate actors/user groups? I am aware that such decisions depend on the specific situation. I was just wondering if others found the same contradiction, or if i misunderstood it.

Here's why OOP makes a lot of sense to me.
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1vikuz4/heres_why_oop_makes_a_lot_of_sense_to_me/
<!-- SC_OFF -->I kind of feel like OOP has a bad rep in the programming community. Personally, after having programmed Java for over 20 years, its object-oriented programming model feels very natural to me. So, I wanted to share how I think about programming, how I translate my ideas and thoughts to code, and why OOP is actually a really nice programming style for me. Perhaps it could help you out too. <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/OSBY_Glabay (https://www.reddit.com/user/OSBY_Glabay)

The LuaJIT NYI That Silently Poisoned an Unrelated Hot Loop
https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/1vgzqd3/the_luajit_nyi_that_silently_poisoned_an/
<!-- SC_OFF -->I was optimizing the Lua transpiler for my modding language grug and ran into a really weird LuaJIT performance bug. The same benchmark could randomly run 20× slower, and it turned out a LuaJIT NYI (Not Yet Implemented) could silently blacklist an unrelated hot loop. I wrote up the investigation here. It goes from the benchmark mystery through LuaJIT's trace recorder internals, and ends with a PR to get unpack off LuaJIT's NYI list. Feedback is very welcome! :) <!-- SC_ON --> submitted by /u/MyNameIsTrez (https://www.reddit.com/user/MyNameIsTrez)
