So the article shows how visa and mastercard are, by far, not the ones taking the largest fee, and the solution is to get rid of them? Where are you going to do the transactions in your scheme? Because credit card transactions are not the s

Yeah, that point was weak. The argument went from "Unix pipelines are not simple" to "unix based operating systems don't have an equivalent to Clojure's frequency function by default so it's worse" OK but

Linux 7.2 modifies the task scheduler to be more cache-aware and is able to co-locate tasks that share data within the same Last Level Cache domain. It also adds a fairer GPU scheduler for better scheduling of GPU jobs; better memory reclai

Oh, that UI paradigm already exist. It's just that browser makers are too busy with things like webasm, webgpu, or allowing pages to launch location/notification popups at users, so they don't have time to fix fundamental fla

If things were that simple... I have to use more than one Python type checker because there is not a single one that works. Not only different tools catch different issues. They also have different bugs, and different configuration requirem

The worst part for me are the false positives. I frequently need to get into the spam folder to discover emails that Gmail thinks they are spam, even though there is absolutely no reason for it. I have been thinking about leaving it.

All this Mythos talk reminds me of fuzzing. The number of vulnerabilities discovered greatly increased. But bugs were patched (often, without even assigning CVEs), systems were upgraded, life continued. Outside of the tech world (and even w

Well, that's exactly what the article is about. Wayland put all together into one process I order to avoid unnecessary context switch. This protocol aims to keep the performance advantages of Wayland without giving up on separation of

I'm surprised that governments didn't take this problem more seriously. Obesity is a huge problem, people have been ignoring it only because improvements in medicine have been offsetting the general health decline. Without the med

There are certainly other use cases. git bisect was enormously useful when it was introduced in order to find Linux kernel regressions. In these cases you might not even be able to have tests (eg. a driver needs to be tested against real ha

This makes me sad. AI is a product, these days being mentally healthy should imply having the emotional ability to be aware of that. If you become emotionally attached to a commercial product you should seek for help.

I would say that the lesson here is that cross-vendor replication is more important than intra-vendor replication. It is clear that technology can (largely) avoid data losses, but there will always be humans at charge

Yep, for me it confirms all the reasons why I think python is slow and not a good language for anything that goes beyond a script. I work with it everyday, and I have learned that I can't even trust tooling such as mypy because it&#x27

The problem is that even when you give them context, they just hallucinate at another level. I have tried that example of asking about events in my area, they are absolutely awful at it.
