Yes, the copy is obfuscated, but this is a new remote desktop tool, like VNC, RDP, or Teamviewer.

Absolutely wild. A normal price for bandwidth before volume discounts is 1c/GB, or 10 bucks per TB

Tax avoidance is a legal problem instead of a tech problem, but it has many parallels wherever there are bad incentives. These are fundamentally not pro-social activities, but trying to get an unfair advantage through loopholes. More comput

Google is not, in fact, the only search engine. For most users the internet has 5, maybe 10 web sites. I can use Wikipedia search or LLMs when I have questions.

I was confused by the title, by "Ring-2" it means "Ring -2" (minus two), which is "traditionally" SMM (System Management Mode), a horrible relic that lets your BIOS/UEFI silently steal the CPU from the OS

You're right, looks like it does!

Don't call close() twice if you're not using pidfds, this is racy. The fd could be reused in between the two calls. You'll risk closing random things a frustratingly small fraction of the time, creating very hard bugs for you

I switched from TST to Sideberry, I'm much happier now. It's still weirdly slow, it somehow takes thousands of milliseconds (entire seconds!) to display the tab list on startup, but much less buggy than TST.

Impressive that they managed to make a plain blog post break. What kind of insane Javascript must be running, that a vertical scroll view with text and pictures has been overcomplicated to the point of breakage

This is the same Google that wrote the libgav1 decoder instead of using dav1d, they don't have a strong history of starting from code that was invented elsewhere. (In the case of AV1 I think they eventually gave up and started offering

I've used it a few times, I had a little script that processed a big important JSON file in functional test. PyPy is pretty easy to setup, and it's free 5-10x that lets you iterate faster as soon as you start to have bigger input

A problem with trying to use concepts like this and asking "what if?" is that it's reasonning and trying to extrapolate from an analogy It's one thing to use analogies to guide your intuition, but physical theories are w

Well, the universe is very heterogeneous, you see. There's still plenty of hot, dense, and fun to go around, you just have to look in the right places!

Regretfully a major Rust for Linux maintainer just stepped down yesterday, saying he doesn't have the energy to keep dealing with the constant nontechnical nonsense: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240828211117.9422

Registering my uneducated guess: Is this implying there was previously hope you could trap a hot system in a Gibbs state and demonstrate nice stable quantum supremacy with those, but they found hot Gibbs states are necessarily all boring an

Thank god. Generosity really doesn't align with any of my values. Where's the growth in that.

For compilers specifically, I think plenty of people would disagree. It's not that it's exceedingly hard in C, but programming languages have evolved in the last millenium, and there are indeed language features that make writing

I get the point you're trying to make, but I'm fairly sure you don't normally get this offended at punctuation, you're playing it up to prove a point. Quoth the Wiki: >When one becomes frustrated with the way a policy

I don't think the author is gatekeeping here. The way I read your comment, you seem to be gatekeeping what is complicated enough 'Tis not a contest. Curiosity is its own reward.

That does not seem like what I want the company I work at to optimise for. Being the best at turning bug fixes or UI tweaks into a flashy story. This signals myopic focus on apearances over real world outcomes.

That's a bit silly, the C++ standard library is pretty small ("the intersection of your needs, not the union" is what they say), and it's often not even really good at the few things that it does. Whether that's cor
