Firefox on Android. Page freezes at load and I cannot scroll.

Wait.. you are supposed to only code?

Yes, this is similar. In Rust you control yourself the allocation on the stack or the heap. So before reaching out to a memory pool/arena, it's too tempting trying to put everything on the stack for "maximum performance"

It is slow for me on both Linux and Windows on very recent hardware. It takes seconds to open. Moving around and resizing drawings lags pretty badly. With that said, Inkscape is a really good software.

I am like a moth irresistibly attracted by the far away light of zero allocation. I can almost reach it. Just one more little lifetime annotation. One more...

Yes, it has limits. And unsafe let you C++ your way out of it. At least, little code requires unsafe and thar makes it easier to audit.

But what when you have some threads slacking off, and others too busy? It would be nice in this case to use those idle threads, even if it means a little bit of CPU cache trashing. And I believe this is what Tokio offers with a work stealin

Rust doesn't protect you against deadlock. I wonder if it is similar to the halting problem. Can deadlocks even be prevented in theory?

Same for Docker (source: I wrote the prototype in Python).

Unrelated to the topic. But at first the blog only contained an introduction, no content. But because others have been commenting, clearly I was missing something. I reopened the page few times. And at some point; some JavaScript I suppose?

Probably because you have an expensive enough car, that actually does a good job at regulating the cabine temperature. In my cheap pickup I have to constantly adjust temperature and fan speed. In my old German "ultimate driving machine

I have a 20y old BMW with the idrive knob. I find it excellent. This is because the knob contains a motor to simulate various detent and other virtual stops. So you actually have a really fine tactile feedback. You can navigate menus withou

Why does Docker makes you feel safer here? Is it because you feel more confident there is no database process still running?

Because you are playing with the clutch, it keeps you busy. And the total time it takes to shift feels shorter this way. CVT are by definition using the best RPM possible from the engine for maximum power and efficiency. Modern automatics a

ahah same. I think we hear the coils that are used to lower the voltage for the CPU. They are modulated based on the current demand.

Can you use USB3 (whatever gen crap it is) for this application maybe? I can drive an occulus quest2 via 8m of USB3 cable. The cable contains a fiber optic with a repeater hidden inside the female end. The total bandwidth this way is enough

My comparison is driving in the US is mostly stateless and context free. While in Europe, you must know from context what type of road you are on, and also remember the current state you should be from the signs you saw earlier. I find driv

Ah, looks barely worse than roads in the Silicon Valley. Maybe that's why everybody drives SUV and pickup truck over here.

Same experience coming from France. Everything in the USA is just lower quality. Be it goods or services. And Americans seem ok with it. There is a lot of overhead everywhere. Dentists have an army of assistants. Any product to order requir

In my experience, it's closer to the latter.

But how much does the insurance cost? Are you positive this insurance, over the years, is cheaper than what you would have paid Miele directly?

You were lucky. Before Uber it was almost impossible to get a taxi in San Francisco and Paris for me. Now it just works the same on both cities.

What's wrong with scrolling on this website. It keeps jumping around as I am trying to read.

I have been personally and my whole professional life on Linux for 15y. And I have the exact same feeling when I have to compile something. The waste of time to compile anything is staggering. And more often than not I give up on failure af

On Firefox mobile there is a slight lag while scrolling. It as if scrolling is sluggish.

I usually complain about stuff like that. But honestly it is really well executed here. And it's only for the introduction. I think that we are so conditioned to have shitty experiences, that we brace ourselves at the first sign of mul

What an horrible website. Click to read. I missed it at first and did not understand what was happening. Then as I start reading, I get a popup in the face. And I have an adblocker at that! I left at the pop-up.

I bought a gaming mouse where the middle button could never be pressed in combinaison with another. It turns out there was a firmware update to fix that. And of course it only runs on MS Windows. My review stating this was blocked. I made a
