Biggest thing about plain text to me is that it's not really a thing. Markup languages generally are not considered plain text, I would not consider code either as plain text (it's literally called code ). What does that leave? P

The fact that we have all these different 64 bit data models demonstrates clearly how the connection between word size and C types is completely arbitrary and largely meaningless. And this is not specific to 64 bit either, same sort of thin

The cases where you want platform-specific integer width (that is not something like size_t/uintptr_t) is extremely niche compared to cases where you want integer to have specific width. I don't see the relation to fp16; I don

I find it weird that the convention to use char/short/int/long/long long has persisted so widely to this day. I would have thought that already back in the 16 -> 32 bit transition period people would have standardized

It would depend more on what we are intending to do, are we controlling a terminal, or are we writing to a file (with specific format). Terminal control is fairly easy answer, there would be some other API to control cursor position, so the

Isn't it quite a leap to go from single image to usable 3DGS model? The editing part seems relatively minor step afterwards. I thought that 3DGS typically required multiple viewpoints, like photogrammetry.

People in this thread complain about 8/24 bit colors, but how difficult would it be to have terminal emulator simply map 8/24 bit colors to the 16 ANSI color palette? Shouldn't that resolve most of the concerns?

Yeah, as a proof it is dubious as it doesn't really define what "established" means in this context. The baeldung article is just wrong > The client, in turn, receives the delayed ACK and assumes that it refers to the last

It depends. On AWS you can get "metal" instances where afaik you get pretty much unrestricted access. In addition on certain instance types/sizes you get access to virtualized counters (vPMU). See Q11 here https://

No, the alternative is to just fix the code so that the conflict is removed. This is why open source is so powerful, you are empowered to fix stuff instead of piling up tower of workarounds.

They can move to different OS if they don't like MS licensing policy. I'm sure IBM and Oracle etc are more than happy to take them as customers, MS does not have monopoly on server side.

That is big if though. Afaik even in Azure MS has said that majority of servers run Linux, and on other clouds I imagine Windows' market share is significantly smaller

A stumbling block here might be that neither Azure nor Windows Server has that big of a market share in the wider cloud market. In that case it could be argued that no matter how unfair, their pricing is not illegal ; market power is afaik
