Amazing. But it won't work for long, they'll patch the BT beacons with some "privacy" mode :(

Fun story, but libraries occasionally get rid of things without removing all their labels. It's very possible it was discarded by the library rather than lent & overdue.

The tables look mostly correct, and that's what I'll be bookmarking this for… I don't think I've seen any elsewhere that are this extensive (in both axis, total allocators covered & details per allocator).

It seems to be intentional & if somebody wants to make a statement about TLS with their personal website that's their choice to make and execute.

I stopped reading on that line. The entire text is coming off as insulting, entitled and smug.

Honestly feels like a misdesign in ARM. Where does it ever make sense for Device memory to not be data prefetchable, but allow instruction prefetch? It should IMHO disable all prefetch…

Are you unaware that you can write code to RW memory, remap it to RX and then run it? That's how all JIT works these days. (Or did you confuse cache flushing with TLB flushing? The remap does the latter, not the former.)

Everyone except the driver has ample time to swap boots during the drive to the location. (In cases where not, I'd also default to robust safety boots.) Depending on the boots, you might not want to wear them while "idle"¹ in

Does the American South actually have that kind of group cohesion?

Sorry, I phrased that poorly. The muscular support is its own thing (and I agree with you) but your soles don't deal well with hot summer asphalt surfaces, glass shards or even small pebbles surfaces.

Probably the same in most Western countries. It's self reinforcing though; if you were expecting to take them off you'd never pick those shoes by default, rather leave them in the back of the car (which presumably/hopefully i

> That's the whole function of shoes though. Nah, the main function of shoes is (to support your feet and) prevent injury. Cleanliness is second on the list. [ed.: added braces]

That does actually kinda make sense, but it works very differently... the politeness is anything but superficial (even counters the racism and xenophobia to a limited degree, but also hides it, coming out to ±0), and the latter two are inde

Having been to Japan several times… and actually studying Japanese studies… I can see why you're saying this but it's very superficial. None of the southern "essence" that caused the split & war is there in Japan at

The UK is on it, Cyprus isn't, Switzerland isn't… but Iceland is, and Turkey, and Ukraine. But not Moldova. Serbia is on - I'll grant Kosovo, but… …weirdest map of either Europe or the EU I've seen in a long time.

These systems AIUI have huge amounts of inertia, by design.

by eqvinox 23d ago
Feels appropriate to ask an AI for that, no? You're vibing it, so the feedback would be vibed too… (and at that point why not ask an AI yourself?)

I'm not sure I see the use case for that, either. What do people use this for?

The back button/navigation is broken on this website for me, likely due to the cookie banner. (Which I generally don't bother interacting with, because why would I?)

Nothing, because blackhat activity disqualifies itself from such a label. Recognition is actively withheld since it'd encourage some bad actors. Same reason malicious software is always given a different name even if one can be found
