   I take it to mean that the compiler inserts variable print code on variable modifications.

   The question wasn't "should all humans not modify themselves", but "should humanity survive". We currently legally protect mostly pre-contact civilizations like Sentinelese, so it stands to reason that regardless of

   Not immediately, but it's not a much larger amount of work for llama than a new foundational model which typically has a tweaked compute graph.

   Sure, I rarely see people refer to the win32k stubs in win32u as part of the native api, despite the Nt prefixes.

   Unfortunately, that's not the case. Wine for instance has to keep up to date to maintain compatibility with some applications. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/releases/wine-11.0 > NT syste

   Uploading to virustotal doesn't really do anything to combat false positives AFAICT. It only lets you test against many AV vendors at once.

   Statistically notable improvement, but it didn't help a whole lot.

   A lot of the native API is considered stable these days. The actual signals aren't, but the wrappers in ntdll are.

   It's partially stable. Basically any thing documented on msdn in the API docs is considered stable. Such as: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/winternl...

    Yeah, I had this problem when shipping go binaries on Windows. Antivirus vendors really do not care that your program regularly shows up as a false positive due to their crappy heuristics, even if you have millions of users.

    Apparently there's changes to boot that are more or less understood, but require some heavy work to handle. Basically starting with M4 you have a choice between starting with Apple's page table monitor already running in their gua

    I don't think chiplets require or even are even generally seen with silicon backplanes yet, otherwise you'd be leaving out stuff like AMD's CPUs. And from there, stuff like the Vac 9000's packaging were very advanced for

    Except Davy said he named it after platinum, except with an alum- prefix instead of the silver plat- prefix, as it was to be considered a new precious metal out of what had previously just been considered impurities like platinum relatively

    Humphrey Davy, the British chemist who performed early work to isolate the element, and who initially named it, called it 'aluminum'. Americans mostly followed him, but the British changed later at the complaints of the French, S

    If Snowden hasn't moved quickly, he wouldn't have been able to leak any of it. What he did, grab it all, then give it to reputable journalists, was the correct option to be able to inform the public of massive intelligence dragnet

    To be fair, those sensitive secrets included secret, unconstitutional, dragnet surveillance programs targeting american citizens, and the fact that the director of national intelligence had perjured himself during congressional hearings on

    You're confusing the audience here. That's directed at subsystem maintainers, not just 'anyone who wants to submit a patch'. If a subsystem doesn't want to deal with Rust code, they won't be forced to. But

    Dave Airlie is saying that the subsystem maintainers are themselves choosing to move to Rust.

    You don't even need that. The IRS will give you a TIN to pay taxes with if you don't have an SSN.

    I do like the frams too for similar use cases. Particularly I like that I can get those large enough to stick a ring buffer from debug out on them as well and get crash logs from embedded systems despite the debug uart not being tethered to

    I would honestly be shocked if they were. They've been making quite a few changes to the virtual memory code over the past decade, and keeping those vestigial arch's around is a pretty big maintenance burden. It'd probably b

    I'm sure there's vestiges of them somewhere, but the underlying support (the architecture specific parts of the mach portion of the kernel) is gone for those archs.

    I agree that each would be made slightly better with a more integrated system. But you could handle all of them in my hundred year old house with the form factor it was designed for: a humanoid. Probably pretty soon here for cheaper than
