You're probably thinking of a hard real-time RTOS with time slices and WCET constraints. For soft real-time, you basically only need low latency. Threads with priorities, synchronization primitives and some way of handling interrupts i

Ad-free premium has shown itself again and again to devolve into ad protection rackets. The minute the internet dies for good, the chat bots will run half-locally and request payments to stop recommending VRAM enlarging pills.

I had a physics undergrad dad of a toddler as a roommate at my college dorm in Europe. Probably not as young as 15 but more like 16-17 when he had the child. At the time it felt like culture shock to my own 17yo self —almost as much as the

Full auto would require charging a huge version of a similar mechanism for a single volley and as a non-actual-engineer, I do not know that it is possible to output the torsion energy in a controlled manner preventing the gun from exploding

Thanks. T+0 all-year-round trading is good in many ways bad in others —like losing the real investor liquidity spawning window at 09:30 EST as opposed to pure market making. Quarterly earnings were already a bad fit for many businesses so I

Well, I'm not considering using any code generation outside of helper scripts because in my case coding is a negligible part of my work. If I didn't have the LLM, I would find and modify the tool it is lifting code from using pre-

Odd how you add the time for the requirement analysis but none for the coding. Then you tell us you leave 83% of the analysis —and the coding— to a code chatbot. Are you actually more productive or are you going to find out down the line th

The nitrogen cycle can be short-circuited really easily at scale. No need to wait for algal blooms to turn into oil. Its usage in tanning is pretty wasteful in comparison as it was just used for its high pH and presumably thrown away afterw

I thought two-three times. Maybe a dozen. I always treated all kinds of writeable CD/DVDs as if they were one-write and done. To be honest, it hurts every time I write to an SSD drive — which is all of the time these days.

The nice thing about Objective-C up to 2.0 was that it was 100% an extension over C and all new semantics were using a new syntax. So you knew that the C code was C and performing like C while the Scheme code was Scheme and performing like

You are right. Although I don't know about "popular". To clarify, my impression was that many people started using tmux around the time when it was introduced including a few who had been using screen before.

They are a bit out of fashion these days. The main use-case was multiplexing terminals and, after tmux provided a solution that was usable by normal users, it seduced people away. Also, mouse-first tiling was introduced on Windows so nowada

I just checked in case it had changed, but Arxiv is nowhere near as free-for-all as you imply. Any crank who learned to use LaTeX is not allowed to post articles willy-nilly. You need endorsements in the field.
