Really enjoyed this post, thanks. I'm not sure if I really understood how the cache-oblivious solution works though in this case, I can't get an intuition for how the code linked in the github relates to the description in the art

Control the sled to steer it along a "racing line" that will net you the best time. More difficult than it looks, especially when you're hurtling down the track, one slight miss of the line and you'll see hundredths of a

This is very slick and easy to use. You sell it well by comparing it to the features on modern game consoles. I'm not sure when/if I'm going to use it, but I like the idea that it's there if I need it! My only criticism

I use a pi-hole on my network so I think that achieves most of the things this extension offers (minus the site rating thing) I use DDG as my main search engine though, and will continue to do so.

This is what saddens me about these invite only Slack channels. Yes the owners are free to make them invite only, but also if they're not easily discovered how are people supposed to find them? At least with IRC or Discord or whatever

Vegas is probably the only place that has the capacity to host 30,000+ attendees of the big conferences, e.g. AWS Re:Invent

Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but is this library a way of merging multiple HyperLogLogs together and still have a reasonable cardinality estimate? What sort of loss do you see the more HyperLogLogs you merge? As in, if you had Set

Outside of porn, I'm wondering if this could be used in other ways, e.g. government propaganda. Putting leaders in situations that make them look good or putting their opponents in compromising situations.

I enjoyed your post, it made me think, could you do something similar with say the JVM? I know loading JVM based applications have horrific startup times on cold boot, but I was just wondering could you run the JVM directly on top of Xen?
