10% of my garrage... okay, exxagerating - but at least 0.1% is the big box of cables of who the fuck knows what ... including several firewire, and really old nintendo, and some that I forgot what it was about...

Садись. Двойка! - "Sit down, you got an F" :) - sorry, as bulgarian it was funny to me this used as example (from russian).

Does this apply to Netflix, Amazon, Disneys, and many other streaming providers's "What to watch next? Recommended..." of sorts (or music/podcast streaming services)...

I spent years (on my free time) coding Lisp, even had the aspiration (but I was younger then) to rewrite P4V (Perforce Client GUI) in it :) - https://github.com/malkia/p4bee but haven't touched it in years....

Hah, didn't think of it this way... To me it was if it allows live updates (+support for them) or not :)

I've been wondering - Is lisp (common lisp, clojure, scheme) easier for iterative work with LLMs?

No it's not. Not everybody uses Zig. Rust/Python/And others have also tried "fixing" it.

Everytime I see a language creating their own package system, all I can think of it how much we've missed here. The only exception is C/C++, where there is none established that well, for good or bad. These choices may create late

In similar spirit, there was an old US TV show that was popular in Bulgaria. It was about some typical US family living with the grandad (father's side). So grandad gets punishes all the times for all the silly things he does, and his

There is HyperDX - search is not fastest, but it could be something that we do too - haven't checked deeply if high-cardinality is big issue with ClickHouse, but seeing some high cardinality data with what we post.

There is an awesome amount of software written by Russians - nginx, clickhouse, 7zip, Far Manager, WinRAR, even Kotlin (his creator) - I grew up, as bulgarian, with Russian books (especially math) that were indispensible. Do I like the Russ

ha! I wish I knew this back then, but now I do remember - I think what we did was simply clearing the bit before access, and it was in just dozen or so places. Slap a macro and you are done!

There are memory regions that are mapped to the same physical memory - https://psx-spx.consoledev.net/memorymap/ I worked on the Metal Gear Solid port from PSX to PC, and Konami programmers chose a wild trick to store

Sandboxing is quite easy (user-wise), once you install the sandbox system. By default it allows only a single sandbox, and with small `.wsb` file you can drive what's visible from the host, whether the GPU should be active, etc. - htt

oh wow! that sounds awesome! (I guess I left around the time you were starting)! I was based in LAX (so no G-Buses for us, but I had to visit MTV often - like once twice a month, and enjoyed getting on one of them)). Kudos!

yup - when I started in 2014, coming from long gamedev experience it was nice that "g4" was just "p4" rewritten for piper. (alzo "blaze menu" was cool, but did not show (AFAIR) places in LAX)....

Xoogler here (2014-2017). My team (part of Ads) used primarily Java, and we used the Eclipse, then we started switching the IntelliJ. Cider was used also a lot, but I've heard even back then some folks were free to use whatever they li

One more "hidden" fact - Windows uses sqlite a lot, for a lot of tables. There is even "C:\Windows\System32\winsqlite3.dll" and "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.27975.0\um\winsqli

In the past I've used the backup API - https://sqlite.org/backup.html - in order to load in memory a copy of sqlite db, and have another live one. I would do this after certain user action, and then by doing a diff, I
