cperciva whom you link have worked quite a bit on EC2 support for FreeBSD, a lot of it documented on their blog [0] and supported by Patreons at [1]. But yeah it would be nice if there was someone who could work on it full time [0]: https:

Do you know if there is any documentation regarding interfacing with the KTLS, eg to implement support for a new library?

Actions was not a thing until after GitHub was acquired, but idk if they used something else in the early days of actions.

No, it ensures that Sourcehut may transfer the files over the internet to people who has access

The title have since been updated to "South Korea Halloween crush kills 120, injures 100 - officials" since they likely got more information now.

Well you can just turn on showdead in the options, by far most of the dead comments are not really adding anything useful to conversations

We have mostly the same in Denmark, though it is possible to apply for non-disclosure of name and address online [0] if you want to stay more private. I have spoken with expats who were rather surprised by it, but most danes don't real

Well across the border in Norway you can look up the pay of people, though I agree with sibling comments, I am rather sure that this practise would be illegal https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-40669239

Yeah it was mostly to give a example of where a wrapped type would be better than `total_cmp`. E.g. something that needs the value to implement Ord.

In Denmark Erlang is probably more know for his logarithm tables since those were used for many years in the schools before calculators became normal

This should also have [2017] added since that was when the findings was published. At least if this article is correctly dated. https://spectrum.ieee.org/magnetic-field-record-set-with-a-b...

I find it much more surprising that it uses a CVE which was fixed upstream in 2020, I guess PlayStation don't pull upstream often https://www.freebsd.org/security/advisories/FreeBSD-SA-20:20...

No but the thing is that the 64th bit will cause undefined behavior if it is set incorrectly, it will cause a interger to be seen as a pointer instead of a number. That was the reason I thought about it.

63 bit integers are actually used in Ocaml which is then used to figure out if a value is a integer or a pointer https://blog.janestreet.com/what-is-gained-and-lost-with-63-...

Well BSL is pretty much a MIT license https://opensource.org/licenses/BSL-1.0 And well the other BSL (Business Source License) may be appropriate for proprietary software that you want to be released under a open licen

I think it is dangerous to look at this too much, there are other reasons that Linux got off to a better start not directly related to the license. Such as some rather serious lawsuits against FreeBSD in the past, that hurt adoption in the

I think a populating of the around 1000 of the city and the sorrunding area is maybe enough though it is likely harder to compete in these times where everyone has cars and such. (THere is also recent examples here where it is not really a

In Denmark we have a long history of cooperative retail stores, so a development like this is not too surprising sering as there have been quite a few examples of stores getting bought by the community here as well. I think it is a good mov

I am actually not sure if a more minimal TCP stack would be the best, especially if you would need to handle packet loss because of congestion for example. For example recent work such as RACK-TLP gives certain workloads better performance,

That depends entirely on what the intent is. If the intent is to launder money then yes it is probably illegal. If the intent is to swap notes with your favourite serial numbers then yes it is probably legal. Intent is a important part of m

They could be using hardware compression which can be orders of magnitude faster than doing it on the CPU. Hardware compression is sadly not widely available, I think the only consumer product I know with it is the PlayStation 5. The mainfr

Does that not miss the point of the above poster, this does not show that Linux have good binary compatibility, but that C is a very stable language. Would it run fine if you compiled it on a 27 year old compiler and then tried to run it on
