You need to quantify what you mean by polymorphic. Do you mean sub typing, ad-hoc, or parametric polymorphism? The latter requires no inheritance.

I think its unintuitive because I have flashcards that I now have memorized pat that took me ages to recall easily. Of course I don't think of them as bad, only "If its hard to remember, it'll be hard to forget". Aka, th

Would a reasonable analogy be to phantom phone vibrations? I know a lot of people have those and if it’s similar it might be a good analogy to hearing things. Aka just like feeling your phone vibrate but it didn’t.

As someone that lives in the cities and dated a vietnamese immigrant, it is good. Where are you going to get your banh mi at? I'm always looking for more good vietnamese food. Except that fish sauce that stuff is still my limit.

It was only true for glibc as well, and its no longer true as unexec got ripped out of glibc recently as only emacs was using it.

I'm pretty sure they'd just eminent domain it at that point, and then the whole plan backfires.

Correct, FPGA simulation of a 3.0Ghz processor means you'd be waiting on the order of weeks to boot into linux. I work for a company that works with Intel on new things. Lets just say the FPGA's they use are... really expensive, a

Having the source for anything in the cpu here won't help when the architecture design itself is at issue. If you have to respin new silicon, all the software in the world won't help you. Ever see a wire on pcb boards going from o

You're welcome! I made it more because I wanted a static pandoc binary. The rest came along for the ride, glad to hear its of use! That said I really need to get back to debugging the segfault in building ghc 8.2.2 on armhf in the ghc

> isn't this only true for the first time a function is used? Yes, but it will happen each time the program loads, which means your LD_* variables will get parsed/iterated over. Statically linking stuff in can help if you have

Err, glibc is its own level of derp. Here, a fully static binary on linux with musl libc, designed for static linking unlike glibc. Note, this on 32 bit arm, size might differ on different arches, all I have access to off the cuff: #

Dollar to a donut, there is or was a mainframe involved in authentication that has an 8 character password. I even bet the company that sold it was IBM. I remember finding out at one job that the "reason" for the 8 character passw

I can't replicate this on apfs at all, though I've also about 10x as much free space. Rather not write out 500GiB of data to try replicating. $ df -k /; dd if=<(yes) of=$HOME/bigfile bs=1024 count=$((35 * 102400

Perhaps, but its easy to be outraged at people in both hindsight and outside of the situation they're in. We should be encouraging this kind of discussion, not trying to shame or judge past actions incessantly.
