macOS on Apple Silicon and iOS use 16kiB pages without lying to applications. Linux has a MAP_HUGETLB constant, which you can pass to mmap(), which opts your application into 2MiB or 1GiB pages. Unfortunately, last time I tried it it requir

Personally, I’ve never liked widgets. Not on Windows Vista, not on KDE, not on iPhone. They create clutter. If I want to interact with an app, I’ll just open the app. So maybe I’m not alone in that and there isn’t really a demand for widget

I’ve only started learning Swift, so I don’t know how it performs on bigger projects, but so far I’ve been loving playgrounds, if not for the dog-slow compilation, but that’s in-character for all LLVM-based compilers, so maybe not exactly X

They are not synonyms. Kernels, firmware, drivers, boot loaders are all programs, but they aren’t apps.

In C you can use “%g” printf format string (which indicates a value of type double), and then not pass a double to it, but e.g. an int. Easy mistake to make, when changing pre-existing code. On x86 what will happen is the code will compile,

I’ve worked for 2 companies so far which maintain a bit of Android code and neither used Kotlin. GitHub search for “#android language:Java” reports 49K repositories, while “#android language:kotlin” reports 25K repositories. GitHub is biase

It would be nice. Currently, I have exceptions for the orientation and ICC profile tags in my static site generator for my photography website, but I could be missing something.

It seems to have issues with some photos that exiftool doesn’t have issues with, reporting some XML errors. But it’s a lot faster, so there’s that.

Browsers still fail at being good document viewers: 1. For a long time now Chromium didn't support MathML. It's only coming back in the upcoming version. 2. Firefox's implementation of MathML is buggy: < http://0

With people reaching for kqueue, epoll and io_uring to handle the C10K problem it seems that spawning processes wouldn’t be a great idea, with the latency and memory overhead of spawning itself, as well as the meagre limits of the number of

I mean specifically crashes, which generate those windows with reports with crashdumps sent to Apple. To be fair, MacOS itself doesn't seem to have issues. There seems to be no upper limit to possible uptime. It's just application
