In 100 years, "us" is going to be Elon Musk's grandchildren, people from Niger, etc. and none of them are going to think like you whether they have to move or not.

Sorry. Mostly Type 1 and overflow is a diagnostic log at most. Losing all stale unprocessed data and leaving a ready empty buffer behind is often the desired outcome. Type 3 is probably banned on most codebases because of the integer overfl

It's not 1999 anymore. If you get RCEd today as a nobody you don't get a purple gorilla. Just silently enlisted into a "Residential VPN" and a background script that checks for the SSID "Iranian Research Facility&qu

I'm a big fan of the GLib/old ObjC approach when it comes to UI elements and backwards compatibility with C but I can't imagine a situation where it would be appropriate on the kind of embedded we're discussing here to d

I do not deeply disagree with your statement but I do not see the two as exclusive. I think distributed public ownership placed in a corporation ruled as proposed here provides a chance to harvest residual good decisions from a citizen/

Share classes can be very varied(such as preferred shares that get what's left after bond debt is paid off on bankruptcy) but generally what he's proposing(a coop-style one-head-one-vote class) is not common. Not sure if it's

A lot of people try to write backends for LLVM to support obscure architectures but these guys are the only ones I know that have ever been successful to any degree. Portable assembly has a nice ring to it but reality is a harsh mistress an

It has already been mentioned that banned users' "ban-worthy" comments are censored. I'd have to run an operation on lobste.rs in order to make a point and then maybe the non-representative examples I do capture are of p

I agree with the sentiment in the sense that technology doesn't scale when you're like that Australian guy making everything from one-use mud and sticks. Some of it does but not a lot of it. Most materials up to the 1900s were re

There are some very smart people on that site that only contribute there(although some are old slashdotters from back in the day) so it is a shame. I get the impression by watching the community that interacting with them is basically impos

The paper itself is an overview that doesn't discuss the cache-friendly optimizations in the original 1986 PhD thesis so it feels like a hash table all the way down.

The reasoning behind this is that birds have higher body temperature in our fever range. They put mice infected with a flu virus modified to have the bird variant of a gene in an oven and the virus indeed didn't degrade as much compare

A superficial reading doesn't inspire much confidence in this peer -reviewed article but I agree that RNA-world is a thought experiment at best. There is no evidence of these RNA structures in actual lifeforms. RNA encodes proteins. T

I don't know if it ever made it to production, and I don't remember exactly why it made sense at the time, but one early hack I did was passing a date in Julian format because there weren't enough bits to pass a full timestam

People predicting a crash and pulling back due to a bubble indicates the beginning of the bubble. If I were the gambling man, I would grab my PETS.AI stock and sit tight.

If C and C++ standardization had included both languages since the beginning, compatibility could have been a thing but it didn't so the languages have diverged since C-with-classes. I don't understand why the C standard has to ge

I don't think the LLMs are to blame here. Not yet, at least. This is caused by people active in English-speaking communities translating memes literally and spreading them in their native language communities as-is. As the meme spreads

Without veering too much into politics, in functional families, children do not mind if their dad knows they are home and who they bring in along, and dads do not install AI-powered security cameras. This is a trust issue.
