Some variants of the ESP32 support executing code from external memory (PSRAM) too. That gives you 8MB more to play with.

You can technically do it on any processor that allows you to execute code from RAM. Loading ELF files at runtime is a whole process provided by an OS kernel, which ESP-IDF is not.

I wonder how much of that issue is related to crappy lid open sensors. AFAIK most of them work by sensing a magnet placed in the frame. MacBooks don't do this so your laptop doesn't sleep randomly when a magnet passes over your la

IIRC Factorio supports both modes as an option.

Most of those SKUs are component swaps. A proper passively cooled laptop would require a completely different chassis design to act as an extension of the heatsink. I bought a MacBook Air because it was cheaper and met my needs. Being passi

There are other differences with the iPad Pro lineup unrelated to the SoC. It's just strange to think that a very capable laptop chip is being put into a device with far more limitations.

Apple is also always at least one generation ahead on the process/lithography too because they buy out all of the initial capacity. That alone accounts for a decent chunk of the difference. I don't think the market is there for fa

The restriction in C# comes from its ability to reference stack allocated memory. I'm not familiar with Rust but it probably figures it out based on the lifetime of T.

Would be nice for humans to get the markdown version too. Once it's rendered you get a clean page.

It does but the GC can still stop-the-world pause threads that aren't touching GC memory. The author's proposed isolation would provide a way to avoid that.

by Rohansi 1y ago
For sure, but the author also proposed "unmanaged spaces" which would run in-process but with no GC. This seems to be the main goal and everything else is definitely better handled with existing solutions.

Even something like Burst is, IMO, not really necessary in modern C#/.NET. It does well in benchmarks but they are almost always comparing Burst vs. normal C# in Unity. Problem is C# in Unity is stuck so far in the past that it makes B

Anyone who thinks DirectX was bad for the games industry needs to go back and review the history of graphics APIs.

I get this all the time without being on an active directory. It's nothing network related from what I can tell. The explorer tab just stops being interactable seemingly randomly. Closing and reopening the tab works around it.

Most likely cheap or fake SD cards. I've been running a Raspberry Pi camera (recording) to a SanDisk SD card for years and it's still going strong.

Why not?

This, and always check benchmarks instead of assuming memory bandwidth is the only possible bottleneck. Apple Silicon definitely does not fully use its advertised memory bandwidth when running LLMs.

Overcommit is different. We are referring to infrequently used memory - allocated, has been written to, but is not accessed often.
589.
by Rohansi 1y ago
You'll also need to consider that the allocator you're using may not immediately free memory to the system. That memory is free to be used by your application but considered as used memory mapped to your program. Anyway, it's

> As I understand this article, swap is useful for cases where many long-lived programs (daemons) allocate a lot of memory, but almost never access it. But wouldn't it be better to avoid writing such programs? Ideally yes, but is th

I don't see how nearly killing the H1B program goes against that pledge. If anything it sounds like something that they could spin as following this pledge.

I have a Steam Deck and love it but it still cannot suspend and wake without the audio crackling issue - other than that it is magical though. (The pause games decky plugin is a third party solution that fixes it!)

Memory bandwidth is just a marketing term for Apple at this point. Sure, the bus is capable of reaching that bandwidth, but how much can your code actually use? You'd be mistaken if you think the CPU can make use of all that bandwidth,

Whether you're programming with a GC or without one it all comes down to profiling and optimization (when required). Using a GC means you need to think about memory allocations and reduce them (when required) because they factor into h

This hasn't been an issue for a long time because nobody uses the non-generic collections anymore. That doesn't help you with your reliance on type erasure though. If you're up for it you should give it another try. Your exam

.NET Standard is more for maintaining interoperability between .NET Framework and .NET (Core). At this point only (very) legacy applications should be on Framework. Everything else isn't, so they shouldn't use. NET Standard as a t
