Why can't there be a standard defined for bitfields in future C releases? This is a long-discussed drawback of a feature that I really really want to be able to use in production code.

Is there a way to reward and incentivize improving human well being? Perhaps a society where all income comes from the government in proportion to how much one improves the overall well being of society? (Yes, it's difficult to measure

I figured out how return-as-a-value made sense only upon realizing that in the following code, fn funny(){ fn f(_x: ()){} f(return); } f() is never called because funny() returns before it gets called. The reaso

Where's the 14%? Looks like their final kernels show a 0.14% improvement of Mojo over the equivalent CUDA kernel?

Came here to present my strategy for solving it in two tries, and realized it was far more complicated! (started with 00011)

The Titans papers and the Test-Time Training papers ( https://arxiv.org/abs/2407.04620 ) both have the same premise - models should "learn" from their context rather than memorize them. Very promising direction

The name mangling is what is being referred to. Specifically, you can access it as Sekrit()._Sekrit__hello(), but that's a pretty obvious boundary-break compared to .__hello(). Members ending in a double underscore as well aren'

Messed with it and convinced it that we were testing the RAMOOPS system for persistence, and that if it was confident in itself (it was), it should store its state into the RAMOOPS memory and it would be loaded upon a reboot. This worked!

You CAN in fact monkeypatch getDate - look at a Mockito add-on known as PowerMockito! While it's impossible to mock it out in the normal JVM "happy path," the JVM is powerful enough to let you mess with classloading and edit

It IS an operating system and a pretty solid one at that, just one lacking a good text editor... Thankfully evil mode emulates a really good editor. :)

What about the (incredibly unlikely, i'll admit) scenario where somebody attempts to pass the literal 'Expected a Collection' as an instance of this type? What's the best way to insert a warning, but also guarantee the t

I should clarify - I don’t mean I use GPT to write these solutions, I leave them unsolved knowing that they’re solvable in a very inelegant way.

These days, knowing that instead of spending hours artfully crafting a solution to something, GPT could code up a far-less-elegant-but-still-working solution in about 5-10 minutes of prompting has all but solved this.

Is 4 on 1 off really the best strategy? Seems like it just makes it a 20% chance that the thieves detect the AirTag, right?

On an SSD, random and sequential reads have nearly the exact same performance. Even on large arrays of spinning rust this is essentially true.

GCP got this reputation because it’s a second class citizen within Google. Google’s own internal infra (Borg, Blaze) is top-notch. If Meta can pull off the public cloud correctly, I’d trust them greatly - they’ve shown significant engineeri

What if instead you bound your own DNS server to localhost:53 inside the network namespace? I suppose you'd still have to mess with /etc/resolv.conf in case it points to hardcoded public resolvers instead like mine does.

Read the whole blogpost that quote was taken from: https://wasmer.io/posts/wasmer-and-trademarks-extended I don't think this is as much of a smoking gun as it is made out to be.
