// TODO: hide the unsafe keyword in a dependency I don't get the quantum meme, but this is pretty on-point. "Output generation encountered a fearless concurrency issue" was pretty funny too.

All of what we take for granted in modern computing architecture was invented as a performance hack by von Neumann in 1945 to take advantage of then-novel vacuum tube tech.

Pallas and Vesta aren't gravitationally rounded, though. But then again, the Moon is (being much larger than Ceres). (It's just better numbered as planet 3-1.)

Yes, Pluto is the tenth planet. To discover Planet 9, simply open your ephemerides and look for "Neptune".

See: the comment above and its folkloric concept of systemd as some kind of constraint solver Unfortunately no one has actually bothered to write down how systemd really works; the closest to a real writeup out there is https://b

There's some sharing used to avoid heavy copies, though GC runs at the process level. The implementation is tilted towards copying between isolated heaps over sharing, but it's also had performance work done over the years. (In fa

It was the easiest thing of all time to get friends and family onto Signal, actually, before the idiots took SMS out and it became just another confusing messenger app.

It's rare that I see such a fractally wrong comment. I guess APNG did come from Mozilla, which I think is the only true subpart of the above?

So have the site blocked entirely. Let censorious despots build their own great firewalls.

Do your jury duty, stop demanding a "skip" button. Think for half a second about what the consequences of that would be.

I let people do this (and mildly encourage them to) all the time, if their pet peeve makes sense to enough of the (small) team. Often, hard-won experience manifests as getting annoyed by trivial-seeming things! I think I agree that, in proj

The level of vitriol, and arbitrariness of the various rituals different people are absolutely convinced I must immediately use to see the light (I don't even own a dishwasher, lol), don't really inspire much confidence.

I just wash my dishes. It's when visiting other people's homes that I encounter dishwashers and weird superstitions relating to dishwashers.

No one is "replying obliquely", I don't think. Generally when I post about this, there's a profusion of indignant outrage (usually about how I should use their magic ritual to propitiate the dishwasher), and one or two

You have neglected to consider that Microsoft bad; consider how they once did something differently from a Linux distribution I use. (This sentiment is alive and well among otherwise intelligent people; it's embarrassing to read.)

It's not really imperative, it's just commit-message-present. The implicit subject is "I", referring to the patch, like Smalltalk documentation style. This canard goes as high as Junio himself, though. :)

I'm not a fan of dishwashers. You have to handwash the dish, then put it through the dishwasher, then handwash it when it comes out. It seems a lot easier to just handwash it once at full effort. Now, this article suggests that the fir

Can you explain how exceptions (partial stack unwinding while carrying a value) do this?

by juped 1y ago
Yes, you can design your system pathologically to make it wrong.

I'm actually just curious what people who write that think the "D" stands for! (the "A" presumably being "advertisement")

I'm curious if you're willing to say what you (and potentially other people who spell 'AD' like that) think it's an acronym for, by the way.

OK, but consider that _my_ opponents are genuinely Dark Mirror ideologues. Silly of the author not to consider that.

You pretty much just have to play around with them enough to be able to intuit what things they can do and what things they can't. I'd rather have another underling, and not just because they grow into peers eventually, but LLMs a

It's because their test is bad at testing this behavior, this behavior is useful for a "bursty" traffic pattern. The point is to keep the OS scheduler from expensively context switching out of BEAM when it's idle, requir

I get the most value out of this feature by blocking fandom.com, fextralife.com and pinning quality wikis on gaming/nerd shit, fwiw.
