Wayland is the new option, that surprisingly (since X is quite ugly) manages to have a much worse design than X. Wayland (as a consequence of its design) isn't really a single option, rather each DE and WM does it's own implementa

Gnome supports those independently of Wayland. Wayland itself sadly deems those and other essential features out-of-scope.

Disabling mitigations could improve performance, but I'm not sure whether it would change how the performance distribution looks. So, in my experience the distribution is a finite set of pulses, equivalently, the performance largely fa

First make sure there are no user or kernel tasks that may be hogging resources sometimes. Maybe even try disabling some peripherals and similar, at the hardware or kernel level. Lots of stuff you could try then: * disabling ASLR * disablin

The sad thing is that a solution for protection against spam has existed for about thirty years, yet it is almost unused. It is based on the same idea that later came to underpin Bitcoin: proof of work: https://news.ycombinator.c

This is what proof of work should have been used for, invented long before Bitcoin. But it seems to never have caught on. Purelymail uses the system to protect itself from spam: https://purelymail.com Wikipedia links: https:&#x

The popularity of the Blake family annoys me, as I feel that it's overhyped. Sure, they're fast (on current hardware), but they're supposed to be cryptographic hash functions. I know that BLAKE received some scrutiny in thi

My intended point was that raising the cost of a procedure makes it less accessible.

What about cost, though?

No opinion one way or the other regarding this specific case, however I'd like to note that both general and local anesthetics can have serious side-effects. There were even relevant horror-stories in HN comments. A specific issue is t

Presumably this is a kernel panic? "Kernel panic" seems like it'd make a better title than "CPU panic". Is there a way to report this bug to Apple engineers?

I also dislike array-to-pointer decay, but I'm not sure why do you say that it is one of the two major problems. Could you expand on "Array decay means that pointers need the ability to point to different array elements, thus requ
