Another place this causes issues is with something like Discord which is based on Electron. There have recently been videos and gifs in circulation which crashes the application if watched.

There is another fun one wich is Ada, there is a hardware implementation of it. So is it a assembly language? https://datamuseum.dk/wiki/Rational/R1000s400

Seems like they are using a github issue to stream the data to, probably through a bot of some kind, I cannot find the issue where it is going on so I imagine it is on a private instance

Maybe a bit unrelated to the post, but I have been wanting to ask the question of why you still choose C as you language for new projects. Is it because that is what you have always used and what you know best or do you not think modern lan

The note [0] (in Danish) published by the danish health authority with the reasoning for this puts the number a bit higher at around 5 to 10 per 1,000,000 [1], another thing that the note points out is if they start the vaccine program up

This decision delays the vaccine program with around 2 weeks 65+ will be done in the end of week 17 and 50+ in end of week 21. In the danish source below you can on the last pages see the before and after calender with the decision. Source

What analysis have you read of it? The one released by the danish health authority [0] does seem to support the decision, even if you may not agree in the outcome. [0]: (In Danish) https://www.sst.dk/-/media/Udgive

I guess that the infamous Scunthorpe problem [0] is still raising issues all around, hopefully they will get the page back soon, it is a bit scary that the page got taken down and there have not been any response from Facebook at the time o

"unicode on punch cards" in the Abyss, should clearly point to UTF-EBCDIC [0] and not just EBCDIC [1]. UTF-EBCDIC is probably one of the most exotic unicode formats, and I don't believe it is used much anymore, if it ever wer

Another similar web app is CalcuLaTeX https://mkhan45.github.io/CalcuLaTeX-Web/

my favorite calculator app is emacs's calc-mode, it is probably one of the nicest RPN calculators on desktop

I would imagine that IBM have their own private hardware for it, or at the very least wants to make it themselves. IBM still have their own chip designers and still make quite a large selection of rather custom kinds of chips and processors

Seems that they got the idea from a Danish show which similaryly got "controversy" around it because it was unusual. https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/ult...

No I was talking about video on demand, if you try pretty much any other service for it none of them allows creators to upload drm free files for the user to download. Sure you can upload a file "drm free" to YouTube but it is not

Yeah, but they are not leaving to vimeo, and vimeo are not trying to get them to use it.

DRM Free movie downloads, also it supports better quality video. Though those are things that work because they do not have the same kind of customers/creators as YouTube in general.

I don't think they operate a browser anymore. My guess at how this happend was that some user tried to open the site, it failed and the copied and pasted the url into Baidu search which then crawled it, and probably also corrected the

A interesting subject under this is reversible programming languages, there is for example Janus [0], which given some input program can generate the inverse, it can also generate C++ code with both directions. [0]: https://en.m.

Tbh I would like to see some calculations of how much helium there is in the drive, a quick bit of napkin math makes it seem like you can make around 5*10^10 drives with the gas from a single field in the US on a single day, assuming that i

A bit unrelated, but I have been working on a bot that fetches comics mostly Garfield from go comics, and the 32 char url you get back does not seem random, but I have not yet been able to figure out how it is formed.

It could be very interesting to see similar comparisons with other operating systems like FreeBSD with kqueue or DragonflyBSD with Light Weight Kernel Threads.

The board had its first meeting yesterday so it will probably be looked at soon, i don't think that the minutes from the first meeting have been released yet, but they or a future set of minutes will likely contain a answer.
