The whole problem is solvable with a single hashtable or a fixed set of memory. The solution use mmap over the input file. So no need for a GC run or a large heap. The solutions also mostly used graalvm and ahead of time compilation.

Most SOCs are trimmed for cost, which means cheap manufacturing. Especially the system on a chip design for single board computers. Even RPI5s with the Broadcom BCM2712 which is super high volume is 16nm. If they manage to get 5nm in 2026 a

The thing I am seeing there is rather a dislike of the codebase than a desire to rewrite. My rule of thumb is this: you need to touch a codebase _more_ to throw it away. Tell that to whoever wants to rewrite. You will have to maintain the o

These are implicit. The IPv4 space is hard money. Demand is high. So ISPs make some money having IPv4 space now. I've definitely seen this. That's how IPv4 connectivity became an enterprise/business line feature on some ISPs.

E.g. the company that bought the IOT department of Acme Inc after a court order forced Acme Inc to sell it in order to pay off the debt. E.g. Pebble was sold to Fitbit due to insolvency. And the cloud services continued to run for a year. B

Well, the linked article references Ruffle and "Ruffle is an Adobe Flash Player emulator". On the other hand "emulator" is usually some hardware emulation. Whereas the flas player was basically a runtime / vm for Fl

IANAL GDPR is about consent, not cookies, storage or anything. If you track a user then you need consents. Nothing about GDPR is tied to cookies. They are just one way to generate and keep PII (a tracking ID). Now if the UTM only identifi

Most of then operate in Europe already. I am personally holding some already (3 for an extra risk split). Most of these old ones seem to be listed in Germany and Paris.

Wifi.org says it's under consideration. But I wouldn't wait for it to happen. Due to all of that I mostly ignored the 6GHz wifi stuff.... So interesting to hear it's working for you. That's the first time I hear someone

There is a nice world map. Yes, the lower part of the 6GHz spectrum is enbaled. So only parts if it. No outdoor use unless power is capped massively

Right. Always forget about that. 6GHz licensing in Europe is bad / late. So we didn't get to enjoy the 6e fun here :-/ But I can highly recommend to get Wifi 6 on the 2.4 GHz Band, too. I've finally gotten usable 2.4GHz

Phone locks are mostly a protection against accidental loss (self inflicted or stolen). But sometimes that's not worth the hassle. E.g. I disabled locks while my car was running. The tradeoff is IMHO well worth it as I immediately take

Depends on which effect you are after. I was thinking of ROI for reading code. Regularly having a one line issue in a 100 LOC file is very different from a two line issue in a 10'000 LOC file. And yes, tests need to be excluded, of cou

Nice one, given that this probably went down to the diff level it would be interesting to see it weighted by LOC changed, e.g. 10 lines in file A and 1 line in file B would mean file A gets 1/11th of the money assigned because it was t

I think he is right. This is basically modern portfolio theory. You should hold an optimal mix of assets, but you can hold negative quantities. If money is a bad way of keeping value (bad banks! Inflation! Money printing!....) then holdin

Same way Spotify does it on startup: ask about a few things. IANAL, but worked through implementations that can work without banner consent. I don't want to imply that it is easy or anything. It's pretty annoying, especially as th

The annoying thing is: it is not required by GDPR. You can provide whatever the user wants to do. Recommendations? Sure. If you want them. The required data collection is then just.... Required. It is tied to this purpose though and can&#

I don't think cost per watt is that relevant. It's been the cheapest source of energy worldwide, at ~4 cents iirc, and falling. For several years now. The question is no longer what to pick based on cost per watt: it's solar.

I would think so, I have it quantized at 8 bit (q8) and that ticks in at ~47GB. Q4 should be well below the 32GB (2x 16GB). I am wondering if the same implementation could be done for RAM to CPU, too. Those are said to be data transfer limi

One thing that might be interesting is SASL has evolved over the years. Most things are RFCs, so well written, short and open specifications. This gives you one larger thing to learn. Should be rather linear if you sort by RFC number. It wo
