Correct, the claim here is that this is better because cache locality is too big a hit and not worth the trade off. I don't know if this is true or not and likely depends on workload. I think they might say you need to rewrite your lon

I'm not 100% sure, but it looks like Tina forces your IO to be return values. You can't actually do IO inside the Isolate handlers, so your compute code runs and returns the next IO operation to run. That's what it meant by y

The suggested alternative is interesting, I was expecting a Rust library though, but it's an Odin one. What's missing are any sort of benchmarks or proof of the claims that it will scale beyond the issues the article discuss.

Article did a decent job of showing discipline and care and human involvement to assert the automated rewrite was done diligently, as best as it can be when using AI for it. I does make me feel a bit more comfortable about it. As an aside,

That's true, that's a money constraint, which hopefully would mean as they gain more paying users, they can scale their index further, and rely less and less on other indexes.

Ya, because the upstream repos already did the majority of the work to port the game to Linux and MacOS. This fork used Fable to add iOS support with touch controls.

The port to MacOS is from the parent upstream repo, which also has it working on Linux, this fork added iOS support.

SearXNG is different though, because it still relies on a data-harvesting, ad-driven online economy. Off course if all you care about is privacy, might be fine, not sure how good it is at hiding you, but if you care more about not having yo

I see, so just major refactor, or almost live-rewrite of a very messy code base, but mostly in the medium/small design space. Ya that makes total sense. It's mostly we already did this and have figured out the ambiguities, we just

Same, I use Spacemacs in holy mode, which is spacemacs with normal emacs key bindings and not vi modals, but still I wish there was a good config that was straight up emacs bindings and didn't pull in evil at all.

For sure, we'd need to be careful about implementation. Maybe we can't come up with a good version and decide not to do it. But we should at least be able to discuss the problem. Some people seem to think it's totally fine fo

Why do you think ownership should be uncapped and allowed to capture majority of wealth? PG is absolutely right, if you want to be a billionaire, you need accelerated growth, you need to find something that a large number of people will pay

Not really. That's why I said no one can work a billion times smarter. There is a "hack" to wealth, and PG has explained it here. You need a large addressable market with little competition where you can capture a small amoun
