And hold the manufactures selling negligent product designs to the public responsible. They won't improve until it's more expensive to sell crap.

I wonder if he accepts the same conduct targeted at him for example from those on his staff e.g. "Fuck my life. The CEO came in drunk again. I wish his liver would finally give out and make space for a CEO who deserves the title instea

What the fuck is wrong with accepting well established intuitive conventions? How does such an braindead anti-feature ever get past a second person in reviews?

The Helium used for cooling expands a lot going from liquid to gas during a quench (iirc by a factor of ~1800). The pressure built-up from the phase change has to be relieved *quickly* before the machine turns into a crude pipe bomb. Oh and

Tie them to four stakes hammered into the ground and start stacking such computers on top of them until they understand that a TPM isn't required to run an operating system?

Knowing that an other vehicle is under computer instead of human control can be useful to (human) drivers.

Damn. Now I want this for Mecrisp Stellaris (a self-hosted Forth for ARM v6M/v7M) with good code generation.

Maybe a column with a server id could work? Can you have a schema differing only in the default value for a server id column or would it be replicated as "insert default value"?

Maybe after decades we have to accept that batched, concurrent I/O with asynchronous notifications is the least bad interface that can exploit the potential of modern hardware and let the simpler to use default Unix I/O model (blo

I would recommend thinking long and hard if you really need a file system on a microcontroller. What do you intend to use the file system for? If it's only for read-only assets like images or sounds use a linker script to collect them

Casting pointers to the correct integer types and again back isn't UB, but several things you can you can easily do along the way are at the very least implementation specific.

They started with MIPS III, moved to MIPS64 before incrementing on that to create their "own" ISA.

That's not an insurmountable problem with a billion people as captive audience. At first glance the ISA is nothing special and that's a good thing. It's a run of the mill 64 bit RISC ISA with little endian byte order and no u

Didn't Zig "just" decide to permanently stay irrelevant for performance critical code by replacing LLVM by a yet to be written home grown optimiser and code generator? Don't get me wrong LLVM has lots of warts, but the a

Did you read Appendix C.1 of RFC 9460? It’s addressed in the very document. If implemented it can reduce time to first byte (it saves round trips to negotiate the next protocol) and it can be retrofitted to existing protocols like HTTP. If

I’m sure Google had to think long and hard if they wanted all those queries forwarded to their data centers to analyse (enrich their user profiles).

IIRC Qualcomm puts their own Hexagon DSP on the SoC which is where they placed their own low precision matrix multiplication accelerator.

The vector in vector packet processing has little to nothing to do with vector instruction sets (SSE/AVX, VMX, RVV, etc.). Only the very latest CPUs (and historical supercomputers) have scatter/gather instructions capable of effic

IIRC the limit right now is per CPU socket memory bandwidth and inter-socket bandwidth. There just isn't enough bandwidth available to treat dual socket Xeon or EPYC systems as a single node ans the networks colocating their appliances

Bitmaps for logical CPU cores and certain lock-free algorithms don't scale well to arbitrary high CPU counts e.g. reclaiming resources once in a while is O(n^2) or worse or the size of the lock structure is linear to the maximum number

The reason Netflix content cache appliances use one UFS file system per drive instead of ZFS (or any other RAID / volume management) is that they run at the edge of what the hardware can do and can tolerate failures up to and includi
