I too have found installing Gentoo to be way easier than building a working image for an ARM development board. I think a lot of that is due to Gentoo having better documentation and tools, though. Then again, part of the reason Gentoo can

I expect that the price of debt issued by Indian banks correctly incorporates the probability that those banks will continue to exist and honor that debt until the end of time, which is 0.

Arweave should just buy the single remaining bond that that Dutch water board issued in 1648. That'll solve all of their capital problems forever! More to the point, an organization can write a promise on a piece of paper. That does no

Okay, if they're real financial products, I'd like to buy one. Which banks will sell me a commitment to pay out one dollar per year forever, including after I die?

Have you confused the theoretical concept of "annuity" with the real-world investment product, or do you believe the world will end when you die?

Isn't Discord's desktop client just an Electron wrapper around their website? It seems like there might be an easier way to get that running on other platforms.

If I remember right, FixedBufferAllocator requires you to set an upper bound for the amount of memory you allocate -- you don't have to get the number exactly right or anything. Runtime allocators also have a limit to how much memory

I don't think the FSF should do anything just to be different. But I think it's a good idea for different organizations to work to improve the world in different ways. The FSF should focus on its core mission, and they should le

I've seen a few articles lately that suggest that the FSF needs to get with the times and stop being so militant about free software. But if you're looking for an organization whose philosophy is "free software is a good idea

My first guess was that they meant, like, rough around the edges. Maybe they do a lot of swearing and fights in the office! But that's kind of a weird thing to put in a job posting these days. Then I remembered that "grit" wa

Ah, thanks! I was more familiar with the color management situation than the subpixel anti-aliasing situation.

I don't know about specific projects, but the main Ada use case I've heard about is safety-critical embedded systems in heavily regulated industries. The same sort of places you might use NASA JPL's famously strict rules for

I took a look at Ada recently and was disappointed by how they've adopted an NPM-style package management approach. This was seemingly inspired by Rust -- Ada even calls its packages "crates" -- but the "bazillion microp

The one aspect that took me a bit to figure out was whether, to move between the house and the tree, you needed someone on BOTH the bone and the flower or just one of them. (It turned out to be both.)
