1st thing: The people here asking if they are going to deprecate BSD sockets. No way that is going to happen. We are talking about 30yo+ API deeply integrated in the kernel, unix and userspace. OpenGL/CL is a very very different case.

What you say is not wrong but people have very good debuggin tools for kernels. You can surely make a small debuggin monitoring layer in the unikernel and instrumentation. If it is not already done, Im sure it will be soon.

What good $10/month servers do you know? Genuinely interested.

Thanks very much for the clarification. Indeed it looks very useful.

Hi. What is this exactly? Skimming through the site didnt give me a clear detailed explanation. Is it a programming api to chrome? As in: host:~$ ./browserless-app example.com # will fetch an interact using js/DOM with the web @

Yes, all I'm saying is: _some_ people; and only a _little bit_.

I think it is a long term goal. "Old" schoolers have and will likely have for ever that evil 90s vision of MS. However it is changing a bit in that people too. They still may be evil, but at least the look more modern (opensourc

Sorry but I dont follow. I hope you can clarify. What's the disadvantage for providing a PTR -> sfo07-blah.google.com instead of sfo07-blah.1e100.net? Browser will send cookies to X.google.com and it will not to X.1e100.net. Ok. B

Just a nitpick. Implementation is about the particular compiler and runtime (stdlib) implementation, not the hardware. Hardware is the platform hosting the implementation (this are ISO C-standard defined terms). A compiler targeting x86 pla

Thats nice, so is the article's examples. But what I always need to lookup is how to make the operations work on especific columns, rather than on whole lines. I mean without resorting to awk.

It is c++. The file is .c but whatever. They use a lot of c++. I agree with you however. Having worked with the code gnu relies a lot on macros & a lot of auto generated code. The code is a big mess, imposible to tackle if you dont spen

Agree. If you want to do shell work in something closer to the shell and have a real programming language, Perl is the winner.

A good thing of forums is that you get everything as is. As raw as it gets. If you don't like something or someone you just block it. You can also have privileged threads/subforums that are read only if you don't meet some re

That is why I say it is not black and white. In Europe we've had both social and liberal goverments. None of them one-sided radicals. The same in the US. If you ask me, I like a very thin and light weight state, with some regulations,

Absolutely? So we are worse than a century ago you say? I won't claim to know the comunism/capitalist theorys or models at all but you are making this an absolute black or white argument. It is not anymore. The developed countrys

Yes, I see what you mean. In cases of extreme poverty, everything is complicated. The problem is there wether we change/evolve the productive model or not. The problem is there right now and it was there 50 years ago, 100 years ago and

by int0x80 9y ago
Yes, I agree. That is a problem. But that is not a new problem. That has nothing to do with technology. In today's world and 100 years ago, there are lots of poor and miserable people. Wars, corruption, explotation. Africa, Asia, South

If there is a future where the technology sector rules everything, then the logical thing is that (almost) everyone is onboard on that sector. That sector will be huge and will have many segments and specializations. In other words, people

Gotten worse if anything. Chips are more complex, more features etc. Things pile up for compatibility. That is a good and a bad thing.

Using a compiler partially written in c++ is very different from writting and mantaining a kernel (or whatever) in c++.

I was also looking for it and couldn't find it. You can't do much with the stack if you can't load/store.

by int0x80 9y ago
This is very true. I've seen very ignorant (on c++) people say that they dont find c++ complex at all, but very simple. Most of the time this only shows the lack of deep knowledge on the language.
