When available I prefer installing applications via brew as casks, since at least this way if I decide to uninstall it later brew will take care of deleting all of these associated directories. I remember using an app called AppZapper sever

The Itanium ISA was an infamous failure, never seeing widespread usage, hence people often referring to it as “The Itanic” (i.e. the much-touted ship that immediately sunk). The fact that anyone would be using it today at all is sort of h

As of when I left Meta nearly two years ago (although I would be absolutely shocked if this isn’t still the case) Jemalloc is the allocator, and is statically linked into every single binary running at the company. > Or I wonder if the

It’s just a huge pain to build and link against. Before the bazel 7.4.0 change your options were basically: 1. Use it as a dynamically linked library. This is not great because you’re taking at a minimum the performance hit of going through

I understand the decision to archive the upstream repo; as of when I left Meta, we (i.e. the Jemalloc team) weren’t really in a great place to respond to all the random GitHub issues people would file (my favorite was the time someone filed

At the risk of sounding overly harsh, I just don’t think this crate is a particularly good idea. I really do mean this as constructive criticism, so let me explain my reasoning. A function being marked unsafe in Rust indicates that there ar

This is likely to violate async-signal-safety [1] in any non-trivial program, unless used with extreme care. Running code in between a fork() and an exec() is fraught with peril; it's not hard to end up in a situation where you deadloc

You can implement pipes via operator overloading in Python. Whether or not you should is a different question: class Pipe: __slots__ = ("value",) def __init__(self): self.value = None def

I have a genuine question, intended in good faith: why? Why spend 10 years working on this, only to give it way for free?

While I don’t use it anymore and have been out of the web dev space completely for a few years now, I personally feel I owe a lot to Django. It’s the framework behind the first software I wrote that other people actually used and depended

This is unfortunate considering how far the language has come since then. Local variable type inference (i.e. the `var` keyword) is very difficult to give up once you’ve gotten used to this being table-stakes in basically every other modern

Turn off “Slide to Type” in the settings if you don’t use it. This appears to increase accuracy in my experience.

These things are everywhere in Manhattan; a few weeks ago there were so many it took concerted effort not to step on one on the sidewalk. They don’t appear to be particularly intelligent either, and as such the ground is littered with t

The only place I ever encountered these was in the computer labs in Soda Hall at Berkeley. They’re a great fit for an environment like that so there’s one machine for each person without needing the extra space for a traditional tower. But

Starting with Ice Lake there’s support for 5-level paging, which increases this to 128 PiB. Can’t say that I’ve ever seen this used in the wild though.
