... then the c.p.u. further compiles this to it's internal code as it executes it. “machine code” really is no more special in this chain of events than, say, LLVM IR. I think this is the core point. Even though you are mechanically

GCP sure does seem to have a lot of outages that span across multiple availability zones (and occasionally across multiple regions). It sure does seem like there is a disconnect between the expectations of isolation that they set and what t

Can... can the telecom industry do that for all of us please? At this point, retrofitting CAPTCHA in as an expected part of the telephone system seems like the only option that will make a significant dent.

Adding a hardcoded extra check for / to rm feels like theater because it barely makes it more safe. It's nearly as damaging to most Linux systems to remove /bin or /usr or any number of other directories. If you wanted t

Can you share anything more about your technique? As far as I know, Confluence hasn't supported a markup format natively for several years. I've found some tricks to allow me to author stuff in Markdown but it seems to come with a

I wish companies would stop with this "small number of customers" messaging. It always seems disingenuous and, besides, that matters for your internal estimation of business impact but means absolutely nothing to the customers a

I agree with everything you said! I was reacting to "I don't see the harm" specifically. Ultimately, I think that with a few improvements to the Postgres protocol, settling on it wouldn't even be a "worse is better&

It's usually (but not always) viable and it's ultimately what one ends up doing. You're right about the drawbacks. One additional drawback is the setup time for opening new connections (network round-trip, re-authenticating,

Interesting! I was not aware of this, thanks for sharing. I'll have to look into it in detail to determine whether it's actually pipelining or multiplexing because pipelining is still problematic, since it's subject to head-o

by clhodapp 5y ago
There's a small amount of harm because Postgres doesn't currently support request multiplexing and so its wire protocol doesn't have any facility for it. This pushes other databases to inherit one of Postgres's few true

If people can reasonably afford a (non-tiny) condo but pine after a single family home that they can't afford, there isn't a housing crisis there's economic diversity.

As a rule, NixOS doesn't patch binaries, it causes RPATH to get baked in at build time. Also, as a rule, it doesn't have some sort of materialized FHS-like subtree for each package, it manages a complex filesystem tree where the (

I think the partnership that caused them to bundle Candy Crush ended a while ago but I belive that it did trickle out to Pro and finally Enterprise before it wrapped up. It's not the highest quality post but this seems to corroborate m

by clhodapp 5y ago
They might get it later but I'm pretty sure they will get it eventually, given that enterprise versions eventually got bloatware like candy crush. I think the classic truism that you are either the customer or the product is outmodded.

As a side-note: a good test of when social networks turn the corner and become evil is when they start conflating liking and sharing by implementing the "You follow x, and he liked" feature that you described. Since this clearly v

Given that C99 is much closer in vintage to their current C89 than it is to today's date and also just straight up really old, it does seem inappropriate to distinguish that as "modern C". That said they do seem to be discuss

I think TicketMaster would just be the one that sells the NFT initially. Most of those fees they charge are in there for a reason.

by clhodapp 5y ago
Also: Someone else can generate an NFT with the same URL in it. Thus, it becomes an exercise to verify the NFT out of band. At that point, in a lot of situations, it's not the NFT that's certifying the ownership, it's the pub

If the demand for large townhouses is naturally lower than detached homes and you can fit more of them in a given unit area then maybe just maybe they actually have some hope of addressing the housing shortage in expensive metros. So far,

By that reasoning, why have structs? You can just make an array of size-2 arrays that give the key and the value.

It's staggering to me that people keep making these "rich" data formats without sum types. At least to me, the "ors" are just as important as the "ands" in domain modeling. Apart from that, while you can a

The idea of serializing suspended computation across a network seems extremely attractive to a lot of people but I've never understood why it's so appealing versus the more typical approach of sending whole binaries and defining m
