   Hah! I usually allocate trampolines at runtime, as the article suggests, but reserving R/W space for them within the application's memory space is a cute trick. Probably not useful for most of my use cases (I'm usually inject

   You are being awfully confident about something that we cannot assess or even consistently define. They probably do not have subjective experience... but how do we know for sure ?

   I agree with you for the most part, but it's worth noting that those standards can expose a C API/ABI while being primarily implemented in and/or used by non-C languages. I think we're a long way away from that, but ther

   Please record a video of doing such - I suspect it may take more active effort than you suspect :-)

   I don't know what to tell you: that really does not read like it was written by a LLM. You were perhaps set off by the very first sentence, which sounds like it was responding to a prompt?

    Yes, this is a problem (look up "the oracle problem"). My understanding is that the conventional solution is to rely on trusted third-party oracles that are outside of the control of the contract's participants and/or re

    Unlikely to happen with conversations, yes, but very likely to happen implicitly as part of work with coding agents. Successful agent trajectories will be used to learn what works and what doesn't for a given API.

    SO has been in decline for many years now; there's not much they could do to stop it now. Even if they could, it's hard to say whether that would be a net good for SO; part of what drove people to it in the first place was its ste

    There are rumours that they are working on this, but I assume they've chosen to keep the exact software experience of the Frame under wraps for now. It would certainly make the experience of gaming on a giant virtual screen even better
