Hell will freeze over, then go into negative Kelvin temperatures before you see nVidia agreeing in earnest to do so. They make too much money on NOT GETTING COMMODITIZED. nVidia even changed CUDA to make API not compatible with interpreters

Sure. It can be. In the same way, a C program can be provably correct. I.e., for all inputs it doesn't exhibit unexpected behavior. Memory safety and correctness are properties of the program being executed. But a memory-safe program !

> People talk as if "memory safety" was a PLT axiom. It's not; it's a software security term of art. It's been in usage for PLT for at least twenty years[1]. You are at least two decades late to the party.

I wanted to see just how bad is raw Chrome experience on Android. I've learned my lesson.

Understandable. I tried moving from Firefox to Chrome but I couldn't. Pages are so slow to load and there are adds everywhere.

To be fair to the dev he said he sped up one function 100x. That doesn't imply he speed up the program. Ironically speeding up parts of code may decrease overall performance due to resource contention. As the saying goes. There are lie

Then from a purely rational and self-interested citizenry would hold any economic agents on the hook for future cleanups of land, water or air.

If you fork a dependency and change features, the CVE information on original depenency is now no longer valid for your code. Your additions or removals can induce new CVEs, or render CVE for original lib a moot point.

I agree. The endgame for capitalism is a mega-corp roleplaying as state. You get food, housing, and so on, but you may never leave it. You will live however long the CEOs need you to live and not a second more.

That's fundamentally a mischaracterization. Everyone focused on short term gains. Optimizing for browser with 30% market share, backed by Google makes more sense than a browser with 20%. Repeat with 40% and 20% respectively. And so on,

Not just the USA system. EU and especially German banks gave plenty of credits to Greek banks, knowing that they will probably spend it on German products, even if they have not much means to repay them. Plus, the EU knows full well that if
