Zig supports this. If you compile with -fsingle-threaded, operations on mutexes turn into nops, atomics become simple loads/stores, etc.

Okay, let's say the cache is cold and you're on an old clunky spinning rust 5400 RPM hard drive. Do the math. How long will it take, worst case, for the platter to spin to where calc.exe is stored?

I won't spoil the article, but if you read to the end you'll find out what this "FMZ" project is called.

It was an offhand 20 words out of a 5000 word article and a very pertinent example. I guess the question is, why were you not bothered by the negative opinion about instant coffee or particleboard or malls or Tinder or McNuggets, but hearin

The site is open source and the commits are still there. No need to be so dramatic. https://github.com/ziglang/www.ziglang.org/commit/c8d046b288...

To be fair, Windows 8 only came out in 2012, so they haven't had that much time to finish the settings migration. But they're making good progress. If they keep up this pace of moving 2 settings per month, they should be able to f

I wonder what tools the Zig team has to deal with trolls like this. Is the zig name or logo trademarked? What about the mascot he's using as his github picture? They're violating the terms of the MIT license as mentioned in the ar

yt-dlp + 4K works fine for me. The only special thing I remember doing is adding the impersonate feature (which it prompts you to do if it needs it). In other words, instead of `uv tool install yt-dlp`, run `uv tool install yt-dlp[default,c

Nature is cruel. Every living thing wants energy for itself, but there's only so much to go around. The leaves cry out in ultrasonic frequencies as they're harvested, and then we add insult to injury by drowning them in salad dres

Sure maybe 20 years ago. But back then Linux's userbase was also on Windows, because desktop Linux hadn't really become usable yet. I think nowadays Firefox's marketshare is a lot higher on e.g. Ubuntu (where it's the de

Appealing to that crowd is how they grew their market share the first time around. The techies came first, trust was established, and then they recommended it to everyone else. Do you really think AI features are going to move the needle he

> complete non-usage of cell phones while driving Well, this would also ban things like GPS, or hooking up Spotify to your steering wheel media buttons. I think targeting texting + social media is the right approach.

Not a single mention of defer? There's no way I'll ever go back to writing goto towers. Yes, I'm aware that some specific C toolchains have nonstandard extensions that accomplish the same thing, but if you lock yourself into

GP is talking about thresholding and thresholding is used in more than just OCR. Thresholding algorithms do not hallucinate numbers.

Even the basic stuff like `openFile` is deprecated. I don't know what else to tell you. Zig won't maintain two slightly different versions of the fs functions in parallel. Once something is deprecated, that means it's going a

by do_not_redeem 11mo ago
This isn't quite accurate. If you look at the new IO branch[1] you'll see (for example) most of the std.fs functions are gone, and most of what's left is deprecated. The plan is for all file/network access, mutexes, etc

That's a fine default stance. But uBO is one of, and some would say the only, extension that you should evaluate on its own merits rather than stereotyping with the rest of the category.

Even if the file is cached, fread has to do a memcpy. mmap doesn't.

I disagree. All the major browser vendors have invested into the ads space to some degree. I'd rather have my content blocker built by someone without a conflict of interest.
