But if I don't care for object atomicity, can I get struct-like behaviour in Java for arbitrary large types?

What's the latest status? Is it still limited to 63-bits of data plus 1 bit for nullability?

I hate how this ostentatious caring for Indians is used to push personal political goals. Want to help with global warming? Reduce your consumption. Stop driving, stop eating non-local food, stop buying things made off-shores or with supply

Another good one is the visual editor of .werkkzeug3 used to make .kkrieger which serves as an alternative interface to the typical node based shader editor. https://media.demozoo.org/screens/o/82/e2/a055

Yeah, but I am guessing one needs a bit more info on how this works together with GC. For example, once an arena goes out of scope, what happens to allocations made inside it that have been returned and thus are referred to from outside tha

If any SBCL dev is here, please add documentation for how to use the memory arena feature. The only doc is an very old proposal document.

This becomes particularly important when the allocation and metadata cannot (or should not) be stored in the same address space. An example of this is allocating memory on GPUs. The conventional approach for allocating memory on GPUs for ga

Glibc is the opposite of backwards compatible. This thread I was a part of explains some issues faced in the past: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47029789

Unfortunately, Glibc and loader are linked together intrinsically in the Linux ecosystem. So, if you want to be able to launch a program reliably, shipping your own loader and libc might actually be the only way.

Was your argument not about replacing non-local languages like Sanskrit and Arabic (used exclusively for liturgical purposes in Tamil Nadu) with local languages like Tamil? If not, it might be useful if you spelled your argument out.

UPI has been adopted by eight countries and a few dozen are in progress [1]. Additionally, UPI has started to integrate with other nation's similar system (Singapore's PayNow [2] for instance). [1] https://www.pib.gov.i

SQLite did come from TCL everything-is-a-string world, so this attitude is not surprising. TCL makes for a very good shell language (much better than Bash or Batch), but a rigid systems language it is not.

I do wonder how it compares against Jolt. Both seem to have a good pedigree, one from Valve and Eric Catto, and another used in Horizon games.

by HexDecOctBin 3mo ago
I see, so would it would only be relevant to unions, or would adding a new node to a linked list or pushing another element in a dynamic array or setting a pointer to null also count?

What is "stable shape"?

Clarity and predictability is more important than modernity when serving 1.5 billion diverse people.

The one big issue with Indian Government websites is that there is no single unified visual language, something that UX4G [1] is aiming to fix. Other than that, I agree; this reads like the rantings of an young intern incapable of operating

Did you use some resource on how to layer immutability on top of B-trees? This is finicky enough that I don't feel comfortable YOLOing.

It might have been better to publicly document and stabilise the LuaJIT bytecode, which would allow people to then come up with whatever syntax they wanted in their own custom frontends.

Can someone point to a resource/tutorial for learning point splatting (the 90s rendering technique)? Gaussian Splatting has completely over taken the search results, and the original technique is now near impossible to find.

No modern libc uses (or should use) brk() as the heap. Allocate virtual memory using mmap, VirtualAlloc, etc., and manage your set of heaps.

When western politicians and media lectures the world on human rights, I can't help but wonder how funny it is that because westerners front loaded their genocidal violence, they now get to feel superior to others that didn't comp
