Europe (by which I assume you mean EU or possibly Euro area) has a fairly balanced balance of trade overall. And a teeny-tiny country like Switzerland can't be usefully compared to something as big as China - the rest of the world can

Because unfortunately, the runtimes belonging to all or at least most of those languages perform a lot better with jemalloc than with the system default. I wish that wasn't the case, but it is.

That approach fall down flat on nontrivial traffic amounts. Also it requires an actual hindrance in the middle to enforce compliance, and then bigger vehicles won't be able to turn left.

There is also the lowercase no, where you say you'd love to do things, but that it has to go through proper channels and get on the roadmap.

Are you not thinking about the wrong tank game? World of tanks has ancient tanks, not modern (game tank span basically end with the main battle tank making the game tank role division being made irrelevant).

Very different situation as stuff inside the kernel presumably cannot be preeempted at any time. Preemption does a number on spinlocks.

And uh, what happens if the active user permission changes?

Cyberpunk is turning into optimistic sci-fi. Competent corporations, mafia sells amazing biotech for cheap, and apartments are abundant and cheap.

Sorry, with movies from the sixties you just need to assume people have either seen it or just isn't gonna see it. The cat is out of the bag already. Or perhaps box in your case, speaking of spoilers.

Most of the dimensions exist in the threaded world as well, only the dimensions wasn't as explored at that point so the choices are usually not what would have been chosen today.

by yxhuvud 22d ago
Very much so and it can be argued that the difference between threads and ssync is just another dimension to compare on. For example, essentially everything that is involved in Structured Concurrency is as relevant to parallel scenarios as

Yes, but when done in industrial (or store) setting they use processes that go faster than what you use at home. Those processes needs the extra protein.

As a bonus they also measure only the averages and stddev, not the percentiles or worst case. Which are the most important for any task in the vicinity of RT.

by yxhuvud 1mo ago
Comparing RTOS latency with only averages and stddev may be the worst benchmark I've seen in a long time. It is the worst case that is interesting, and possible also the worst latency shown for each added 9 in the 99, 99.9, 99.99 etc p

Northern Sweden don't have the same prices as central Europe or even close to that. The underlying reason is that the transfer capability doesn't handle equalizing it. However, southern Sweden is a lot closer - Sweden is divided i

Note that grandparent actually didn't say they used mmap to actually get the memory, just mapping it.

With real devices I get something like 1.8GBit/s with less than 2 meters between the stuff. Which is far from maximum but who cares, it is still great.

What part of EU doesn't have VoLTE enabled? It is definitely widely used here in Sweden, though they simply forbid phones unable to do emergency calls over WiFi (including existing phones, which forced me to buy a new one. That was ver

No, I would consider refcounting as variants of GC.

Who says it is not a sensible tradeoff? It may be a much better tradeoff than not being able to run it at all.

This is not a desirable solution on musl based systems. Whatever you do in that situation ends up horrible, so it is about finding the least bad solution. Which this seems like a workable variant of.

Modularizing (and versioning each part independently) libc would go a long way. There is also a need to separate the stuff needed for system integration with what is necessary for users of the C language to actually do stuff.

At least in the chemistry/pharma industries, yes, due to the (necessary) regulatory structures there. But in modern tech? No.

The release version of City Skylines 2 had enormous issues due to this problem. Some tiny details, like a pile of wood behind a shed, had ridiculous amount of pixels. I do believe that should be pretty much fixed in that title nowadays, how

Easily big enough, but how deep it was generated and how the movements happened do impact the risk a lot.

It is worse than that, if you cyber someone you essentially talk dirty over a chat with them. And that is definitely not something I'd like to do with a bot.

It is really great for the wildlife after the drilling is done though, as the windmills tend to make the area safer against fishermen.

There was what? At least three boom and bust cycles involving railroads. Do we have any good reason to believe the computing revolution will be nicer? So far we've had one bust. We now know the topic for the second while the timing rem
