git doesn't do everything that SVN does, so I don't think that's true.

Having used git submodules, I see a lack of them as a feature. I honestly think that a script that checks out a specific commit from an external repository, combined with adding the path to the .gitignore is strictly better than submodules

Movycat looks most like mpv's "-vo tct" option. It uses ASCII half-blocks which is the same as what TCT defaults do. (Playing animated content with "-vo tct --vo-tct-256=yes" is a great way to get early-90s video g

I think you have that backwards; they can only guarantee a certain number of allocations per second (once the application hits steady-state the two are the same, but there are times when it matters)

Many of these issues go away if you control the compiler and runtime, which Rust does (and they needed to make changes to those to add async, so changes were inevitable).

I'm going to veer into no-true-scottsman territory for a bit and claim that those don't count since they cannot collect cycles (if I'm wrong and they implement e.g. trial-deletion, let me know). This isn't just academic

The TL;DR of that sums up my opinions pretty well. As an aside, I know Rust would be unlikely to implement segmented stacks for fibers, given that they were burned by the performance implications thereof previously.

by aidenn0 1y ago
Maybe I've been on x64 Linux too long, but I would just specify 8MB of stack for each fiber and let overcommit handle the rest. For small fibers that would be 4k per fiber of RSS so a million fibers is 4GB of RAM which seems fine to m

> significantly less memory overhead On an OS with overcommit, you might also only pay for what you use (at a page granularity), but this may be defeated if the stack gets cleared (or initialized to a canary value) by the runtime.

by aidenn0 1y ago
Pre-1.0 Rust used to have infinitely growing stacks, but they abandoned it due to (among other things) performance reasons (IIRC the stacks were not collected with Rust's GC[1], but rather on return; the deepest function calls may happ

I am still mystified as to why callback-based async seems to have become the standard. What this and e.g. libtask[1] do seems so much cleaner to me. The Rust folks adopted async with callbacks, and they were essentially starting from scrat

I love D2; I just wish ELK were the default layout engine; it is extremely rare that Dagre does a better job than ELK, and it took me a while using D2 before I discovered the layout-engine property.

The Roman goddess of Hygiene (Hygieia in Greek Mythology) is named "Valetudo." I (and probably many others) more closely associate the term with Brazilian no-holds-barred fighting matches called Vale Tudo.

From my limited observations it must; at least in cumulative subjects like math. Too many kids are just completely lost because they were moved up to the next math class despite not understanding the previous math class.
