I thought I remembered seeing the moldbug blog pop up on HN a ways in the past, but it doesn't appear to have gotten much traction in the past (and moldbug never really got much traction via comments either): https://hn.algo

This is awesome. I've been working on a project to make the PostgreSQL/EdgeDB/Gel protocols declarative in Rust (see https://github.com/geldata/gel-rust/blob/master/gel-pg-proto... for an

Hard disagree. Sample #2 is totally the Miyazaki-vibe that is everywhere in OpenAI-generated comics. https://clevercoloringbook.com/samples/2_cartoon.png The cartoon owl at the top has a different vibe and would probab

The comics look pretty Miyazaki-inspired, like all of the comics I've seen lately. I've kinda started to dislike this look because it's _everywhere_ that low-effort comics are these days. Maybe worth trying to train a better

I love the idea but a few people mentioned this to me earlier in the week and commented on how they didn't like the look. I'm torn on whether I think it's better for them to advertise the tech itself, regardless of whatever i

I pop in from time to time but I only ever see right-wing rage bait (??) and my old timeline is completely gone. I don't engage with any of it either, just scrolling until I finally catch a name I recognize and maybe dropping a like.

Given how much power was concentrated in the executive, it's probably better if the role became largely ceremonial.

Funny, that movie was intended to be a satire of populism, not an instruction book.

Actually your largest trading partner, who also fought Nazis, is the lowest on the list (or top, depending on how you frame it).

This was difficult to read in Firefox without reader mode. No mention of that tiny town building game I've been looking for again (non-gridded, very adaptive, kind of medieval), which is shame because I completely forgot its name. EDIT

Oops, totally whooshed over my head.

I didn't bother looking at the files, but I would wager that it's not as clever as you suggested here. If there's gold in this leak, I'd suggest it's buried in an Everest of crap.

From a quick scan of the file listing of the 18GB compressed folder linked for download elsewhere, looks like it's a collection of completely random data hacked over a number of years from various accounts that may or may not be connec

I would definitely consider growing the TinyKVM brand!

These posts from Varnish initially confused me because the only Varnish project I had heard of was a cache/accelerator like nginx. TinyKVM is an impressive marvel and I wonder if it would help to separate the branding from the older na

Ack, yeah. I forgot about those despite having used them. That's a good point and I stand corrected. Edited post above.

This is a great way to see why invalid UTF-8 strings and unicode chars cause undefined behaviour in Rust. `char` is a special integer type, known to have a valid range which is a sub-range of its storage type. Outside of dataless enums, thi

It is possible. Some platforms have no concept of rodata. You can mremap a segment. Lots of valid ways to do it.

I'm curious if the register you see near the microcode ROM is potentially hooked up to MSRs -- it could potentially be a read or write buffer. https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~ralf/papers/highmsr.html > To the left

Any ideas if the mask ROM is scrambled? Apparently the P6 doesn't have a direct mask ROM : microcode relationship. https://github.com/peterbjornx/p6tools

I'm surprised the microcode ROM and format hasn't been dumped already. Is anyone working on this? EDIT: The later Atom processors were dumped, are there any similarities? [1] https://x.com/_markel___/status&#x
