Do not assume people are sane for any definition of sane. That way lies the madness.

We really need some kind of interstellar war right now so that next presidents can serve in some junior roles.

If you can't run linux you can always run netbsd. or any *bsd. Besides the advice on ditching hardware on account of thermal problems is .. terrible. If you went so far as installing obscure linux distros, surely unscrewing a few screw

Thank you for the insightful comment. I feel I have to insist that to control latency one has to first eliminate any intrinsic source of it (a GC) and only then deal with what's left (using arena/pool allocators and such) in the f

We insist that GC is unacceptable only because we insist that uncontrollable latency is unacceptable.

IDK what's the fuss. m:n scheduled by io is .. 2000s-era. The implementation was so obvious in like 2005, that even I patched then Python 2.6 in, so we at my then company could get rid of Twisted. Also let you remind that M:N schedulin

If for some reason you don't like what it takes to earn the other imaginary points (billions of $), so yes. At least as of now internet points take less from yer soul.

Durum-burum latency. In fact, internets slowed down compared to 2010s, and CDNs helped only to delay that. LEO orbit latency is nothing compared to what you lose to stuffing your link with useless web crap.

I chose Mylene Farmer and Welle: Erdball. Hitler and Mussolini haven't got up there by themselves, they were symbols that personified current beliefs. It is the same with Putin for example: he rides some (diminishing, but still there)

Truly most helpful advice. The sheer speed with which they eat down bushes and small growth has to be seen to be believed.

So let's spit on those 'not so many people' from our ivory tower? Besides, it's not about people, it's about power. Pulling a few MW into middle of nowhere is prohibitively expensive.

Haha nice catch. In EU there is no left or right, only reelections by scaremongering. Also 75% effective tax rate, not including VAT.

No opinion on Macron's rightness (I think he's so weak as to be unable to have a position, but that's neither here nor there). I think you misattribute, everything you cited was there before him and he had no leverage to chan

Would you like to work in the middle of nowhere?

Well I can see where excessive minituarization of hydraulics makes it a mess. One can't really lower working volume past some threshold, and the rest of system gets very fragile. I don't really get why it's even needed, it&#x

Whoa are they that different from a typical motorcycle brake? Because I never had a problem with those, all the way from 1990s japanese scooters. They are simple, reliable and don't require much maintenance. They even work ok on 75% wa

Sounds like someone who never tried to walk in a true wild forest. Where if don't have a machete you ain't going nowhere. And while you're pitifully trying to make some way, a bear bites your ass off.

you forgot the point: no one cares, because it's been like that forever.

Yup, so one just reads up on psychology, psychiatry and neurophysiology branching into sociology and anthropology, approximately to a graduate level. After which all this self-help looks quite naive. This sure takes 10-15 years, but the res

Yeah, tell me about fiberglass. It slips out too. And that was Fiskars, not some noname crap. When it does, you put it back and hammer some big screws and nails into it, this way it holds some more time.

Authors of claude code mess could not secure a vm. Big news. I bet it was "secured" by telling that same model to deploy a secured system.
