If you're not familiar with them, have a look at visual studio SLN files. They are exactly what was described. There is more and more being pushed into the msbuild files instead (a separate format, that is at least theoretically separa

Read the title, it's about HIV/AIDS, not covid. Not to imply that would be an appropriate response if they were talking about covid.

Huh, yeah I actually forgot about them, I have used them in the past. It would still be nice to be able to make repo-specific tokens though.

It seems the system is called cinavia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cinavia I specifically remember it refusing to play an mp4 of a spiderman movie.

When will we get repo-specific tokens? That's what I really want. As-is, I've just created extra special purpose github accounts, but that's a bad solution IMO.

That's not even a slippery slope, the ps3 already did that (refused to play video files of Sony pictures movies)

I can think of some reasons why this might be a problem, but the article doesn't seem to make a strong case? Without extrapolating a bit with my imagination, the only conclusion I can draw is "medical ai considers race in it'

Also, they're missing the one in the botanic gardens in Dublin, the only one I know of :p "British Isles" doesn't bother me, I guess it is a bit confusing for people who don't really know what it means though.

The real solution: leave Werror off by default, activate it only during CI builds

You can, with no hypervisor at all, just running on bare metal, so long as your mobo / nic supports it (which I believe most do). I haven't ever personally done it though, so ymmv.

You could netboot off an iscsi target on another machine, which is backed by an image file on a zfs volume. That way you get all the nice zfs features of snapshotting, and windows just thinks it's using a hard drive. You could even ski

That's a little unfair, I don't think there's enough information in the article to come to a conclusion either way.

They recently added a CONFIGURE_DEPENDS flag to file(GLOB...), which will automatically rebuild the file list when new files are added.

My #1 match was an account[1] banned for "posting unsubstantive comments and repeatedly breaking the guidelines". Now, I may be biased, but I don't think that's accurate :v 1: https://news.ycombinator.com&#x2F

I got a call back from havok to interview for an internship during summer of my third year of college. I said no, because I'd just walked out of accepting a summer internship with a physics professor in my university. Never quite forga

From reading the title, I thought they meant an ARM cpu with the same magical x86 memory ordering mode for emulation that apple put in the m1. I would love to see that!

Ah, I also tried unlocking the file descriptor 1024 limit, which worked fine most of the time, but didn't actually give me a perf boost in any of my tests. I got rid of it in the end because it caused problems when copying from an smb

Not a question, but I made a similar tool in c++[1], for Linux only using io_uring, and a blog post explaining its internals [2]. I'll definitely have a look some time soon, I'd be interested to see how performance compares (I gat

I don't think it explicitly said it in the article, but I'm pretty sure the hiring-to-fire is happening in warehouses, not dev offices.

I've made a further extension of this principle for a video game release script, by adding a --unsafe flag. The script was responsible for building the game on a bunch of platforms, uploading it to various storefronts and announcing th

We statically linked it, and didn't use the system/steam provided version at all. I guess if a user tried to use SDL_DYNAMIC_API, it would break in strange and unexpected ways. TBH I didn't know that option existed until just

We did this when I worked on factorio (on all three desktop platforms, not just linux), it works really well. Side bonus is you can make the inevitably required small tweaks inside the library easily because it's all integrated in the
