That's moving the bar though. Only in the past decade or so has it become reasonable ("reasonable") to include entire runtimes together with an application. Java started in 1995, Python started in 1991. This was an era when o

I've used Gentoo for almost a decade now, and no, that's not true. emerge doesn't just randomly keep source files on disk, and certainly not in a form easy to link to. In fact, Gentoo is worse than Debian for static linking,

Which reasonably-popular modern languages can be reasonably said to have ignored cross compilation? Interpreted languages like JavaScript and Python obviously don't have any problem, JIT languages like .NET and Java explicitly have a c

by Hello71 7y ago
I don't see how zig cc would help with that. Your distribution probably also doesn't ship all the source files for your packages either, and there's no other way to statically link.

hopefully this will make the actual costs of private health insurance more clear. right now right-wing media emphasizes the cost of public health insurance, which sort of works because the cost of private health insurance is hidden in the c

so what you're saying is that without TEE, Netflix would shut down? come on. Netflix would clearly keep operating with or without DRM, all TEE does is make it harder for the user to access their legitimate (non-Netflix) content in anyt

that sounds vastly overgenerous. if that were truly the case, then TEE wouldn't be built into every consumer system. if it were actually to protect against malicious cloud providers, then TEE would be only available for special (read:

> The SLoC of IPSec kernel code are comparable to the SLoC for WireGuard kernel code. I haven't checked whether this is true, but even if it is, that's a damning indictment of IPsec, because on Linux, the entire connection esta

the "none" cipher isn't even that bad... if you do a packet capture, you can clearly see that the data is unencrypted. the worst part about IPsec is that there are many modes which look secure, but actually aren't secu

yeah, a generic, probably pointer-heavy hash table is definitely gonna be worse on memory. I'm surprised that it's that much worse on time though, I expected it to be closer. I guess probably the cache misses are worse with such

seems like it would be worth comparing to the old "awk '!a[$0] { a[$0]=1; print }'". I would assume that such arrays are implemented internally using hash tables. probably not as efficient as a C implementation, but the

Allegedly, some platforms have pointer trap representations, where a certain pointer can be created, but may not be used in any operations of that type. No modern systems have such trap representations for pointer types, but the C standard

you can probably bodge it by running a bunch of copies with limited workers, then run your main copy, then kill the starters. or, you could fiddle with the CPU affinity.

'for x in $y; do printf "$a%s$b" "$x"; done' is used in the code already. I am proposing that it be changed to 'printf "$a%s$b" $y', which is also POSIX compliant, shorter (even including a
