DPI systems in Turkey weren't even checking QUIC packets when I was there, let alone ECH. But, browsers usually start with TCP first to negotiate QUIC support, which prevented bypass of web blocks. If you could force your browser to es

I can't overstate my love for Tcl, yet I had only a little chance to use it when writing XiRCON IRC scripts back in the late 90's. Such an elegant language: simple, easy to learn, flexible. I call it Lisp for humans. I wish it wer

I started blocking advertisers on Twitter whenever I saw an ad since Musk took over. They gradually made the blocking experience related to advertiser accounts harder. First, they started showing “upgrade to ad-free” popups when you blocked

Okay, I had assumed JIT for x64 wasn't possible (yet) and ARM64EC enabled that partially. So, ARM64EC images are actually native ARM code that can interact with emulated (+JITted) components. For some reason, I thought native ARM64 bin

Just to clarify: yes, it requires the source AND re-building it. But, with a simple switch, you make your x86 code JITtable on ARM64. That's why it runs at native ARM64 speeds. Sometimes, you can't build natively for ARM64 due to

Windows already AOT compiles x86 binaries to ARM64 when they are built with /ARM64EC option. It doesn't support AOT for older executables yet.

There was also a translation server called Babylon that used a similar raw text protocol (like WHOIS, and DICT here) in 1998. I remember adding it to my IRC script, but it must have stopped working at some point that I had replaced it with

Never thought that `Close` could fail, as `CloseHandle` on Windows never fails. I wonder how .NET behaves in the same scenario on Linux.

It's funny that they named "nil"lables "nullable".

True. I just assumed that 16-bit support got dropped since Windows 11 was 64-bit only.

That and it's 30+ years (NT was released in 1993). Backwards compatibility is certainly one of the greatest business value Microsoft provides to its customers.

Many synchronous I/O operations under the hood are just async I/O + blocking waits, at least that's the case with Windows. Why? Because all I/O is inherently async. Even polling I/O requires timed waits which also m

Then it’s just this with C#: public byte[] Read(string path) => File.ReadAllBytes(path); I think the article’s trying to explain a concept using an arbitrary piece of code from stdlib, not necessarily that specific scenario (openi

I think the article makes a good point, but the actual example isn’t Rust’s worst, not even close. It gets really hard to follow code when multiple generic types are combined with lifetime markers. Then it truly becomes a mess.
