This is not true - it's actually all the same VM if you check hcsdiag. WSL2 distros only use Linux namespaces, same as docker, and the WSL2 --system distro can see PIDs from all running WSL2 distros.

A few release cycles back, Swiss Maps became popular (i think, particular thanks to CockroachDB) as a replacement for standard Go map[K]V. Later, Go's stdlib map implementation was updated to use Swiss Maps internally and everyone bene

Gaseous form is a problem, but have you seen the Fraunhofer POWERPASTE? I was optimistic when the news was first announced, but that was a decade ago and of course it's not widely used.

Go can create C ABI shared libraries, I think OpenSSL-compatible C bindings to Go's crypto/tls would be a really interesting option.

You can see the spirit of what they're going for also with the MIT binaries - that's also like saying the whole project is AGPL, but a loosening for using it as-is. Given their goals seem to be - Permissive use without modificatio

Dokku user for a decade here, congrats on shipping, love to see more self-hosted PaaS options like this. Why are binaries checked into the bin/ directory in the repo? Compared to Dokku, I like how your LE support is builtin instead of

Cool project! I would hope "native" means at least either CPU-native code (i.e. not Typescript) or OS-native UI (i.e. not Electron) - what did you mean by it here?

What is ACPI other than a DTB baked into the firmware/bootloader? Any SBC could buy an extra flash chip and burn an outdated U-Boot with the manufacturer's DTB baked in. Then U-Boot would boot Linux, just like UEFI does, and Linux

Go exposes raw pointers to the programmer, and its current GC is entirely non-moving. Even excluding cgo, I think a moving one would probably break real programs that rely on pointer values.

Telegram have a big mini-apps platform. Chatbots are a major area to regulate. I don't see how it would be possible for Telegram (or Discord, or IRC clients...) to comply with this.

An AOT TS -> C compiler is fantastic - how much of the language is supported, what are the limitations on TS support? I assume highly dynamic stuff and eval is out-of-scope?

Specialization for file formats is not novel (e.g. 7-Zip uses BCJ2 prefiltering to convert x86 opcodes from absolute to relative JMP instructions), nor is embedding specialized decoder bytecode in the archive (e.g. ZPAQ did this and won a l

The best hardware is probably something with SD845 as this can run mainline Linux. A second-hand Poco F1 running PostmarketOS is pretty cheap and realistic.
