Oh, that's really elegant! I've got a whitespace sensitive language of my own, and I think I'll change it to use that rule! Thanks! (Until now, I went with the standard approach: Remember the leading whitespace of the previou

You're right, mathematically it's undeniably true. However... One could imagine an even smaller subset interpreter. It's an interpreter for a subset of Python, consisting only of the programs that print "Hello World"

In my experience, people justifying their own piracy usually think about it in terms of refusing to give money to unethical/monopolistic publishers. The fact that it results in money not going to the author is sort of abstracted away,

But the person you are responding to didn't say "any and all borders are racist, including borders in your own home". You are the one misrepresenting their argument.

"Advocating open national borders means you must let random strangers live in your house" a truly reasonable and not at all disingenuous argument. On par with "advocating socialism means you must let random strangers use your

Your comment has three hands, that's the kind of collaborative communication style we should all aspire to. Personally, I suspect good writers will adapt in due time, not because they don't want to sound like AI, but because they

I would like to know too, but the author's Github account seems to have been deleted, and the crates.io releases have been completely deleted too (not just yanked) so it seems impossible to view the file :/

Yeah, that works for making sure the machine isn't constantly crashing. Although from a security point of view it's still very bad. Every compiler / JIT has bugs, and bugs that let you write to random or arbitrary memory adre

This is about the ACM licensing it to for-profit AI companies, who will then make you pay a subscription to access the knowledge. Not about making it "freely available to the public."

It's annoying how many comment sections online are now just Rust vs Fil-C / Zig flamewars, and the creators of those languages are deliberately fanning the flames. I also feel there's a second dimension to the politics, where

I do agree Vulkan is too cumbersome, but OpenGL is definitely obsolete. The OpenGL API with its binding-based approach is also very confusing for beginners, but the replacement Direct State Access API came too late (after Apple already deci

Mesa has Zink which translates OpenGL to Vulkan. AFAIK Asahi uses it because they only wrote a native Vulkan driver for the hardware, no native OpenGL driver. Apple themselves also don't ship a native OpenGL driver anymore, only a laye

Non-US hedging will be big for RISC-V in the future, but the geopolitics can also cut the other way. E.g. US banning US companies from using Chinese RISC-V chips, to protect their domestic players. Especially now that intel is partially sta

It's not running at 400 fps, the UI has the current global listener count next to a button that says "fps". The fps is only shown once you click that button. Weird design, I know.
