You can't with Apple Silicon. It's shameful in my opinion. You still can load a core dump or view the state after a NMI but you can't run the kernel under a debugger.

If you have experience with QEMU now there is good support for MacOS 8/9/X in ppc and there is an alpha version with initial support for System 7/8/A/UX on 68k. It's still a PITA but at least it's similar

There might be something in what you are saying but it's not really like that. The current macOS is humungous, kernel aside. There is a variety of systems running under the hood (Spotlight, fsevents, Apple Events, duet, launchd, MIGs,

You are oversimplifying Israeli politics. Concepts like "left" and "right" do not apply fully there as there are at least three fundamental splits that are somewhat independent: appeasement with the Palestinians vs hawki

That's significant. The ayatollahs came to power thanks to big popular support (audio cassettes of khomeini). Now a popular uprising is specifically against religious restrictions. In the meantime empirically the army has all the power

I was speaking of emotional and decisional independence. Look at enmeshed family dynamics for an example of a terribly unhealthy symbiosis.

There is no "modern" C but "C with additional niceties". And those additions are usually low key enough to be adopted by a good portion of the compilers out there. When you have a C code base or experience with C those f

I have come to realize that every imposition of power from an individual or a group has the same characteristics. From a narcissistic single person in the family, to an evangelist, a religion, a state. They all follow the same patterns. It&

Both things are programs that run in your head. The difference is how much the program makes you search inside yourself and ALONE for the answers you seek as opposite to reaching for an external authority. If you feel you are dependent on a

My way is a a ugly undo - copy - redo - paste. Not efficient, sure, but I'm used to it and it solves my problem most of the time

You are perfectly right. And yet the swiftness of that move made that a fait accompli pretty quickly so people forget that. A better line would be "before the 2022 invasion ..."

It saddens me a lot but my prediction is that these protest won't overthrow anything. As long as there is no help from at least part of the military there is no hope for the protests to grow into a revolution. We have seen it in Belaru

My experience is almost the opposite but I understand what you say. I use it for note-taking only and it's almost like paper in the feeling. But it hasn't got the downsides of paper as compared to digital media: weight, the diff

Oh but if you want to make calls with it you will need an iPhone. That's just them maximizing revenue, I guess.

Yes, unfortunately. I speak only for myself though. I found some very good articles there and even then I couldn't help getting turned off when I read them because I associate them with the mountains of subpar material that get publish

There is now experimental support of 68k Quadra emulation in qemu too. I wish it expand to the whole 68k Mac line.

Nice! System programming languages are having a revival. I wonder if big companies will eventually rewrite their systems in those new languages. Will I live to see a Rust XNU/Linux/NT kernel? What's certain is that the periph

From a computational point of view it would be nice to see, actually, a type that has no zero and is symmetric around it= ... -3/2,-1/2,1/2,3/2 ... It would be trivial to implement efficiently in hardware (as opposite to

Russians are a highly educated population that produces excellent engineers. But Iranians too are in this position. But they are sanctioned off from the technological advanced world and they can't even import modern chips. Add to that

World War in the sense of nuclear weapons and the whole West at war. Even if it stays that way - Russia against the West - and even if on paper Russia will lose since they are alone - nukes can fly especially over Europe. I'd understan

What do you mean "still"? Stealing is not something that depends on the year we are in. This kind of looting goes either to collectors (money) or to personal trophies in private houses. All things that human beings like to have fr

Only the ones I know I will eventually read from cover to cover (not always sequentially, however). Usually this means the high quality ones. Sometimes I buy a book that in retrospect is not as interesting as I thought, and I regret it. Spa

I don't know why they don't do that either. Perhaps because a transition like that will take multiple decades of consistent and steady guidance to succeed, given the nature and size of C++ codebases and nobody will take the respo
