You can boot regular macOS directly to a root terminal in “Single User Mode”. This was easier on Intel macs of yore but is also possible on M1+ Below content from https://eclecticlight.co/2020/11/28/startup-mo

Wow, this is super cool. It almost feels like a DIY pocket-Cloudflare. I’m curious how a WASM binary gets mapped to HTTP endpoints that take JSON, how much of that is Pollen vs Extism? Are the routes encoded in the WASM binary somehow?

They're referring to the Windows kernel; see the preceding paragraph on the Windows kernel - the three general purpose OS families are Linux, macOS, Windows. Personally I think not enough credit to macOS here; Apple's Mach/XN

What do you mean "we keep falling for it"? I remember after the acquisition there were tons of projects that left for Gitlab or other forges on principle of boycotting Microsoft. And for the many who stayed on Github, we still got

if you use Kubernetes, shelling into an instance from k9s cli is pressing "s" with the instance highlighted in the TUI. it's great. haven't found a shrink-wrapped tool like that for ECS thats as good/easy as k9s for

I saw a big hit to Claude’s intelligence w/ the 1M context window model and the change to adaptive reasoning (github issue linked elsewhere in this thread). I’m pretty much using 90% Codex now, although since Claude is consistently fas

I wish they offered some managed bridging to local NVMe storage. AWS NVMe is super fast compared to EBS, and EBS (node-exclusive access as block device) is faster than EFS (multi-node access). I imagine this can go fast if you put some kind

building for the loud users on a forum is generally a losing move. if we built notion for angry HN users, we'd probably be a great obsidian competitor with end to end encryption, have zero ai features, and make zero money.

X11 only is a bit of a bummer although I’m not surprised - i don’t think i’d target Wayland either for this sort of thing if i was a happy x11 user already.

I think you could approximate a 4d projection onto a 3d display, much like we approximate a 3d projection onto a 2d display. So perhaps one could enjoy a fun and intuitive game of 4d doom if you have an appropriately fancy volumetric displa

Really? Pretty much all atomics i’ve used have load, store of various integer sizes. I wrote a ring buffer in Go that’s very similar to the final design here using similar atomics. https://pkg.go.dev/sync/atomic#Int64
