This is an astonishingly bad idea. Don't do this. Use HTTP server-sent events instead. Those can keep the connection open so you don't have to poll to get real-time updates and they will also let you resume from the last entry you

So, let me get this straight. You published your software under a free license that stipulates they can't remove the license and are otherwise free to do as they please. They took you by your word and did exactly that. What did you thi

I find it very funny that the post is basically complaining about fearmongering by the maker of Sentry to scare people into not hosting themselves. And then he does the exact same thing, on behalf of Sentry. I hope he got paid for this. Oth

The title is confusing. He is not reimplementing the STL. He is writing some C++ classes providing functionality that is also already implemented in STL.

Hahaha holy moly they are linking to https://adblock.turtlecute.org/index.html to prove how great their adblocking is. That site then says: I found that the uBlock Origin extension breaks the final result. To fix it, add ad

I like his other two talks better than this one. I find "this worked for me once at Etsy when we were a 20 person team" not a very convincing argument. That does not mean I think he's wrong. Just that the conclusion needs bet

Oh no! Herb Sutter is leaving Microsoft?! That does not bode well for Microsoft. At least from the outside perspective it looks like he was the adult in the room, the driving force behind standards adoption and even trying to steer C++-the-

Why didn't they block his access to the mailing list instead? It's not his code that people felt hurt by, was it?

LFS has been a tremendous resource over the years for me. I'm happy it exists and that people put in the time to keep it going. I often wonder why the existence of long "you also need to do this completely unintuitive thing first&

I'm sick and tired of the "the evil attacker attacked this harmless company" rhetoric. Take some responsibility for your actions! I loathe that you can apparently get away by telling reporters that it must have been a nation

Have you considered that you may have a different kind of humor than Justine? Why would you even post this here? Who do you think this is helping?

Ladies and Gentlemen, let the race (to the bottom) begin! While the vultures will shit out AI generated garbage in volume to make ever diminishing returns while externalizing hosting cost to Youtube and co, actual creators will starve becau

If you use shared memory with a captive process, that process can probably hack you if it gets taken over by an attacker. I agree with your parallelism counter-argument in principle. However even there it would probably make sense to not tr

This smells like they are using shared memory, which is almost certainly a security nightmare. The way they are selling it makes me fear they aren't aware of what a time bomb they are sitting on. Shared memory works as a transport if y

This is pretty much shameless advertising for a competing product.

Holy shit these claims are wild! It's not just a percent more performance here and there, the graphs look more like 50% more throughput on the same hardware (depending on the cpu architecture). My immediate fear was that they optimized

These sound like reason you retconned so it sounds like you didn't choose Illumos because your founder used to work at Sun and Joyent before. :-) Frankly I don't understand why they blogged that at all. It reeks of desperation, li

io_uring actually changes this story because you can communicate events without crossing the syscall barrier, but only if you get enough incoming events to saturate your processing capabilities. epoll batching only works in respect to the e

That is an assumption and generalization you can't make. In fact it is usually wrong. I invite you to do actual measurements before claiming things as fact in the future. I, for example, implement an async web server and your case basi

This argument is basically hand waving, and it's factually wrong. Yes, switching from user to kernel mode and back is expensive. But let's count the syscalls. Model 1: Threads. 1 blocking read(), 1 blocking write(). Plus cost for

Yes. They call it "secure" and have zero arguments to back up that claim except Rust's memory safety guarantees. Which, by the way, do not apply, since the SHA256-Code is marked unsafe.

"cryptographically secure bootloader" is a meaningless phrase. They mean a boot loader that validates cryptographic public key signatures of the loaded component. That would be a secure cryptographic bootloader. AFTER they have pr
