Actually no, the malloc doesn't allocate any memory it just updates the process's VMA to say that the allocated virtual range is valid. The pages are then faulted in on write. This is where things like OOM killer become very confusing for people.

In linux (in sane configurations) allocations are just preorders.

EDIT: I can't reply below due to rate limiting:

I'd argue that overcommit just makes the difference between allocation and backing very stark.

Your memory IS in fact allocated in the process VMA, it's just the anonymous pages cannot necessarily be backed.

This differs, obviously, in other OSes as pointed out. Also differs if you turn overcommit off but since so much in linux assumes it your system will soon break if you try it.
Probably because of reduced all-cause mortality, increased food production, and the relative peace of the 20th century.
And? Xilinx+Intel is 90% of the market. They're the only ones who actually matter. And I can tell you from experience that defense is considering almost no on else.

This is true for x86-64, not true for other architectures such as arm64.

Apple uses the high bits to cryptographicly sign the pointer value.
And keep a copy of your own health records. You don't need to see the doctor's files, but you should know dates when different tests are done, and the results. A paper notebook is best, but I just email my wife with the subject "HEALTH:"
More remote companies should prioritize employee-wellness-first policies rather than jira-tracking every employee to death.
Mouth and gut health are directly related to physical health AND mental health.

The gut is often called the second brain, and lots of mental health issues like anxiety, depression, stress, etc can be greatly helped by improving diet and healthy gut.

It’s criminal that medical establishments are controlled by pharmaceutical companies and establishment media spreads prescription drug propaganda.

Everyone needs to do their own research about gut health and direct impacts to physical and mental health.
What is "the issue"? Back when Toyota was in the news, there were multiple alleged issues.

I commented on the issue of loose floor mats, on an underpowered car, on a high speed road. Even if it is potentially fatal, I don't see what's specific to Toyota.
That is such a great UI. I feel like the list should be longer. Can you do that without it costing more?

Not all of those edits are by mods, of course. Some are made by submitters (edit: as the site points out!). Also, some are because we switched the URL and thus to the title of the new article (example: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=21616157). Those look weird if you assume they're moderation edits.

It looks like the list is sorted by reverse ID, which means articles that were submitted earlier are lower down on the page. But sometimes we re-up those (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11662380), so from a front-page perspective some 'newer' stories are below older ones.
I applied to a lot of the companies on that list. I also focus on fullstack roles. I think my experience is that 50% of the tech interviews end up being leetcode stuff.
Existing .org domains they can't move without overwhelming disruption, so most will just pay whatever it costs. But for the future, we need to move the Internet towards having peering relationships with TLDs such as OpenNIC.net.

Motivations:

* This issue of .org being sold for profit

* The fact that OpenNIC had to rename their TLD domains (e.g. .free to .libre) when ICANN created a colliding .free domain, demonstrating clearly that they are not peers.

Internet technologies such as browsers and operating systems should recognize ICANN and OpenNIC roots as peers, with DNSSEC to both. Should ICANN decide to create a .libre domain, existing browsers and operating systems should consider it a DNS attack and not recognize it. I think an organization like Mozilla ought to (1) flesh out any technical challenges, (2) support OpenNIC and (3) push for this.
I have wondered for a while now if an AI could write something like a Barbara Cartland novel.
The rules of the web are changing constantly. All you have to do to change the web is convince Google, Apple, Microsoft, and Mozilla to go along with it.

One legitimate use case for cryptocurrency is so you can transact with individuals who do not have bank accounts. Cryptocurrency allows anyone in the world to get a cryptocurrency "bank account" and that "bank account" allows the individual to transact freely in society. It is important for a free society.
