It’s a great idea, I did explore it but ended up falling in the dithering and Fourier rabbit hole.. I’ll give it another try without any color tricks!

I did write a very fast SIXEL back-end [0] with adaptative quantizing and GPU acceleration, but most emulators have a very inefficient implementation unfortunately. For example iTerm converts the SIXEL data to PNG, writes it to tmpdir, and

In this case, people do control the rock from the inside and can divert the rock, but falling from a cliff saves money.

M1 performs better in some realtime use-cases because of the unified memory: the GPU and ML hardware can work on a camera framebuffer directly without any copy. CUDA always requires sending data over the PCI bus, at least when it comes to r

> 1 Processor, 1 Core, 4 Threads Any idea why StarFive went with this choice for an SBC? I remember POWER7 also having 4 SMT, but it felt right for a superscalar multi-core CPU.

As a long time user, it’s been a pleasure following CodeSandbox’s progress recently. It works really well on an iPad, making it a great learning tool. I can’t wait for them to get this working fully offline. Congrats to Ives and the team on

Could you please share why wrapping structs in a typedef is bad? I'm culpable of doing this quite often.

Lynx is quite unique because its layout engine is really optimized for the console. Unfortunately, most websites nowadays don't render well with it. There is browsh but it's pretty slow compared to Lynx. I'm currently porting

Note that it also works on macOS even though it only shows Windows in "Platform". The Epic Launcher and KSP both run through Rosetta on ARM.

FWIW v8 does too through its "snapshot" feature. It's used by Chrome and Node.js to speed up the initialization of the standard library. It might even be faster because it includes both the bytecode and the heap.

KVM requires additional privileges. A Linux container would need privileged rights and access to /dev/kvm to run QEMU with KVM for example, whereas any container should be able to run it in user-mode.

In my case VSCode is very responsive, but the clang-based language server is pegging an entire CPU core parsing millions of C++ files in the project, causing it to not respond to editor requests.
