It feels like some distraction to avoid to deal with the much more important (stategically) issue which is the interop of EU online services with 'small tech'. BTW, with noscript/basic HTML, no infinite scroll anyway. One Roc

I am coding assembly using the static code prediction rule (on RISC-V): if not registered in the predictor, conditional forward branch is predicted not taken and contitional backward branch is predicted taken. Mechanically, it pushes down f

If you don't compile the CPU hardware bugs mitigation for linux, which windows has, you'll be mechanically and significantly faster. 1 + 1 = 2

Yeah yeah, virtue signaling, and most of EU online services are now gated by the use of one of the whatng cartel web engines (IRL, google blink), namely EU web sites are broken favoring web apps. They have to restore interop with noscript&#

After a long gaming session, I usually get a GPU reset (AMD). I suspect a hardware malfunction. Almost everything does recover: my media player, the steam client, xorg in general (yeah, yeah, I know, I am writting my wayland compositor to m

Wait, you need a TPM chip? I don't know what services a TPM chip does provide. Wild guess, some private keys, hidden to the computer user, are used to sign stuff and/or encrypt ?

Combined with cproc, I get 70% of gcc -O2, for a small fraction of the code... and a plain and simple C coded compiler.

I keep banning gogol Ipv4 ranges because of scanners, script kiddies (and maybe worse). Yes, I am self-hosted, and without paying the DNS mob.

I am looking for the same thing but for from c++ to plain and simple C. It seems there is a signal with coding AI, but somewhat fuzzy.

Easy: you can remove the smart phone and plug it to a USB port with an off-the-self converter, and it works out-of-the-box with the universal video usb driver.

Computer languages cannot be trusted, even from ISO. You may have a chance with a simple preprocessor and simple assembler. Don't forget, for most software out there, but not all, its development time is ridicoulus compared to its life

I wish it was written in plain and simple C. Anything new from AI assisted port from c++ to plain and simple C?

ofc, there is classic web support, aka noscript/basic (x)html?

Alright, I don't understand anything, but you said ~5secs per token, then for prompts with hundreds to a thousand tokens, we are in the orders of tens of minutes to hours. I would be targetting coding prompts. Well, it means one day I

Let's say I get 32GB of RAM, with a lean elf(glibc)/linux system, for which 7GB is beyond enormous to run. Let's book 8/16 cores/threads to run a prompt. What are the timing figures I am looking at to run an "a

I would even remove the C code and lower the usage of the assembler pre-processor to a basic C pre-processor. Happy, AV2 decoding already here. :)

Once github was bought by microsoft, they have been breaking, step by step, classic web support (noscript/basic (x)html), namely they created a hard dependencies on the massive complexity and size of the whatng cartel web engines. I do

That let me think: I think I have never compiled af_alg in any of my linux kernels. Now, I worry about the linux user mount namespace code... because I run the steam client which valve forces people to have in their kernel because they don&

If I want to run 'coding prompts' running the biggest deepseek model on CPU, what is the order of time I will have wait, hours, days?

That's why decades ago, devs did prefer GNU [L]GPL protected code, and why their was a "corporate" pressure for MIT and BSD license code. Don't be a fool.

To have 'betrayed' and 'microsoft' in the same sentence is consistent.

Yep, that's why in many cases it is better to refactor already tested and debugged code. Additionnally, the size of the code base increases the difficulty to spot 'obviously' refactored code from open source projects. There i

Is fedora able to handle alternative init systems (like debian I guess), or is lost to systemd?

Hopefully, they won't fall into the "Whatng cartel" web engine trap, and be clean classic web (noscript/basic (x)html) with lean web/network APIs. And that includes the SDK, namely the computer languages (excluding

Do you really think with that massive amount of open code, some would not be injected in windows kernel (or even .net with mono, or even windows userland with wine)? It is easier to hide it: it is closed source, and they are probably using
