For a moment I misread this, and thought LLVM had introduced an optimization flag specifically for when your code will be used in backend software. (Which... that seems like an interesting idea, now that I think of it. What, if anything, co

Espressif calls the ESP32 an MCU, and at least 1/3 of ESP32 models have >1MiB of onboard PS ("pseudo-static") RAM (i.e. DRAM with its own refresh circuit.) At least 20 of the ESP32 models do have 16MiB. (And I would argue

That seems odd. Even with an A2A protocol, don’t you still need to standardize a client “surface” or “API” or whatever, so agents can describe IDE actions they want to trigger in the expected terms over that protocol? Or is A2A like USB, wh

Oddly, I saw some B&W wheatpaste posters for the company put up in my neighbourhood in Vancouver. (Couldn’t even tell what the posters were advertising initially. Not even a QR code. Just “NOUS” and an anime girl.)

Actually, no — it's an evaluation fee, simply to review your application; and they will reject applications that don't meet their criteria. One of those criteria is that you actually do something with the gTLD — per their FAQ: &gt

Presumably, they submitted a gTLD application to ICANN and paid the — at the time — USD$180k evaluation fee. They likely also made arrangements with some existing registrar to host the actual name servers, rather than doing so themselves. T

It's especially bizarre that ROMhacks would be suppressed from IA, when IA has played host to plain-old 100%-infringing ROMs for years now, with nobody seeming to care. (I will not directly link to these collections, for the fates are
