"safely abstracting `unsafe`" is the important concept with respect to rust and it's use of `unsafe`. `unsafe` occurs in rust source code where the author of some code needs to do things in a way that can't be directly p

I run sway too, but I've kept firefox using X11 instead of native wayland due to the trackpad scrolling in firefox under wayland not being exact (ie: it jumps as if I had a mouse with a clicky scroll wheel instead of exactly following

Yes, it could make a lot of sense to enact price control boards like those of the WW2 era to allow some level of price changes without allowing price changes to the extent that it is harmful to the national interest.

Since v3.0, Linux has treated the first _2_ numbers of it's version as something that is incremented sequentially (in the v2.6 era, the _3_rd number was used, prior to v2.6 there was a even/odd stable/unstable split) For exam

Not the parent, but `auto` in c++ improves the situation wrt implicit conversions as variables now automatically get the type of the thing assigned to them. IOW: less unintentional implicit conversions.

Only for copyright claims. Patent claims are not diminished by publishing items and asking for review. We can see this in the various video codec and other standards that publish a bunch of info that is covered extensively by patents.

It is trying to make the linux kernel more real time capable. Having periods of time where preemption isn't enabled (due to having interrupts disabled, etc) results in more variation in when tasks are scheduled, including real time tas

linux-rt is a patchset that changes the behavior of linux to increase the number of places where preemption can occur (among other things). Doing this decreases certain types of latency in certain situations. As an example, it tries to have

yep. opening in FF 75.0 on Linux shows a white blank page. Opening in chromium renders properly. Looks like it's three.js failing to initialize webgl in firefox. Probably some firefox webgl issue.

Yes, I'm curious about the way they're intending to handling this legally as well. A bit of searching shows a Supreme Court case Virginia v. Tennessee, 148 U.S. 503 (1893) [1]. This restricts the application of that clause somewha

Yes, this is because firefox doesn't allow multiple ff instances to use the same profile at the same time. You can ask firefox to create a new profile (`firefox -ProfileManager`) and then use a seperate profile for the remote instance

`forgetting` is not an edge case. In the context of rust, having an API that invokes unsafe behavior without it being marked unsafe is not acceptable. Keeping ourselves to this rule is what makes the concept of `unsafe` useful because we ca

gcc also has ubsan since gcc version 4.9. Many of the sanitizers are shared by the clang & gcc projects. Some functionality, like emitting errors on unsigned overflow, is confined to clang.

Here in the US, bread machines often end up on the shelves on second hand stores like Goodwill and Savers. Certainly, it involves going to a store to purchase one (and relies on said store being open), but it is an option.
