Tbh I agree with almost every word there, but I can't believe this OS would be of any help in such a situation. In dusk of our civilization it will not be possible to boot this OS from any modern computer. Those things nowadays don&#

I remember my brother having a printed list of one-time-codes. I wonder why this is not mentioned? Not everyone wants to have their phone a single-point-of-failure. For me - breaking screen in my phone rendered my banking unavailable for me

it's funny how a law becomes potentially-outdated only when big corporations want to violate in on a global scale. As a private person I no longer feel incentivised to create new content online because I think that all I create will ev

it's about ABI, also 8bit << ... << 64bit architecture. Every pointer is 8 times longer. Don't complain, just admire. It's an art.

Great respect! I've tried many times, without final result. I'll try to use this for learning purposes! Btw. I like how Inno Setup used some very old Delphi 2 compiler to create exe so small it would fit without breaking the zip c

I agree with you. I think that except for memory cost, having everything in strings just moves the logic of validation of unknown or malformed strings from deserializer to validator method. But it must happen. And it will break nevertheless

Can anyone give an example where state machine isn't an anti pattern? I mean I never met a system that had a graph of states that wouldn't require working across this graph in certain situations. Hardwiring it to database would e

Wow that's amazing. I sometimes play NES emulated games, which are (due to hardware limitations) using some tricks while displaying larger mobs, to show a few sprites instead of one (and using monitor synch to quickly switch the sprite

It would be nice if you mentioned it's about apple silicon, and not apple intel computers. They're still ubiquitous nowadays

Quite a few years ago I read on Reddit a post made allegedly by a Microsoft programmer, who was telling that the young generation of programmers do not want to maintain the old optimized code (he was saying specifically about pipes in windo

It's always the same, and it had to be like that. 1. Subsidy, give freebies, special privileges (in Poland we have ev cars allowed to drive Bus lanes) 2. Once the market has been saturated, revoke slowly privileges 3. Later move on to

Fun fact: in my language (Polish) those AI generated voices are unbearable. I understand that this can improve making them indistinguishable from real person, but so far it all sounds to us like a fake person from temu.

Bare metal printf is usually faster but (surprise surprise) platform dependent. I remember I was trying to program Atari 8-bit using C compiler, and writing directly characters to Antic memory range WITH charcode translation was 100x faster

Yeah I wonder how do the code look after such professional AI development. I tried ChatGPT 1o to ask it about simple C function - what errors are there. It answered only after I directly asked about the aspects I was expecting it to tell ab

I think you're wrong. According to my knowledge the pixels on CRT were rectangular and were throwing their color on neighbouring pixels. Graphics created for CRT were shown nicely on those screens, had much better visuals than displaye

Just changing key from G too F # does not make the song unique if it still follows the same chord schema. It'd be better to identify chords relatively, i.e. IV->I->V->vi
