But locks are suggestive, not mandatory. So if the other process does not take them into account, they just have no effect.

We did something similar in my engineering school in France too. Design a simple SPARC-like CPU, make it work up to VGA/UART(and PS/2 IIRC?) I/O on an FPGA board, write a compiler for a tiny subset of Java for it, and make yo

Also, don't forget that beauty is relative. Sure, 1960's LISP doesn't look that nice nowadays, but it's day and night if you compare it to e.g. the contemporary FORTRAN IV.

The problem with C++ metaprogramming is not what you can do with it, it's how you do it; which, IME, is always the most convoluted, unsafe way possible. The “siamese brothers”-ization of templating & metaprogramming is especially p

IMU, the golden use case for crypto would be a database, but for entities that are in a perpetual Mexican standoff. So I guess that theorically, in its current form or another, it may find very good uses in e.g. exchanges (I know, bold of m

At some point, if one needs to twist and turn and restrict a definition until it fits an arbitrary target, it is at best useless by overfitting, at worst driven by ideology more than anything else. Such a manipulation only leads to absurd s

> It makes total sense for one to exist. I disagree: IME, when you add a float and an integer, you want to cast float to integer 50% of the time, and integer to float the remaining 50% of the time. Even if it leads to more verbosity, I p

Optimizing language choice for something as fundamental as the kernel for compile speed seems very naive and short-sighted to me. If I had a choice between 50% CVEs and 2h per compile or 5' compiles, I'd take the former in a blink

Yes, that's the idea. In a nutshell, you can see it as a checksum for program execution instead of static data.

We already know, it's not like if female rulers were an unknown quantity. And empirical examples (Thatcher, Catherine the Great, Maria-Theresa, Elisabeth I, ...) shows that it would basically be the same.
