I think the parent poster is saying that LLD needs to take a different approach, not Zig. But it wasn't previously known what approach that would need to be, since M1 does it differently than other ARM CPUs. Therefore there's no e

I am highly optimistic about the future of cryptocurrencies but even I can acknowledge this was a strange/risky move by Signal.

It's not just comparing pre-Reagan to post-Reagan though, but also the 25 years following that. If you look at the animation, the biggest changes happen after 2000.

The design of a car is obviously limited by fundamental aspects of physics which are outside of the control of car manufacturers. For example, car manufacturers didn't invent combustion, aerodynamics, etc.

It's almost ironic to call someone a "millionaire" these days in Toronto, which has been badly affected by the real estate bubble.

Don't you think it's wise for various reasons to have "offsite backups" of their technologies and production capacity? Even ignoring the political reasons, just consider what happened to WD and Seagate during the floods

The pro-proof-of-stake argument is that every other system is inherently already like that: For example with proof-of-work, the richest can already afford the most hardware which gets them the most earnings. But actually with proof-of-work

I agree that was in poor taste, but would you say the naming of "Zika virus", "Ebola virus", or "Middle East Respiratory Syndrome" is despicable?

Going by bytes is also simple and objective. And also totally arbitrary, just like going by codepoints. Which is the most useful for dealing with strings in practice though? Are either interpretations useful at all?
