Actually one's Valhalla will it (expect it late 2022) the memory utilization will change heavily and the memory model, too.
Except when it doesn't.

My Win10 install was showing a constant 100% disk usage right after upgrading from Win8.1. I read online that it can be caused by Windows search indexing all the files, so I simply left it running. After 2 days I had enough, stopped all the search related services, and disabled them where possible.
Then the Cortana update got released and the exact same thing happened again with search processes taking up all the available disk I/O.

Network speed was also an issue where Win10 kept on downloading updates while the PC was in heavy use instead of doing so when in idle status. That's when I found out about above mentioned 12hs update window, where it kept on downloading stuff in the background whenever I had a late/early gaming session.

CPU usage was not as bad as the disk usage issues, in my case, but there are the occasional spikes from Windows processes even when in idle status.

That's why I had to start looking into options in regards to trimming down Windows to its bare minimum features, as the system was barely usable with its constant disk usage spikes.

PC configurations differ, so of course your milage may vary. Just from my own personal experience I know people on both ends of the spectrum, where everything just worked for them, or it was so bad that it rendered their PC useless and they went back to their previous Windows version. In my case I just had to figure out how to prevent Windows from doing certain tasks that would end up having a noticeable effect on the system performance.
> Does Linux add support for newer Intel and AMD chips in old kernels? No.

Yes. All big distributions backport drivers to older kernels they still support. And Microsoft still supports Windows 7 and 8, and has to do so until 2020/2023 or heads will roll, no matter what their marketing wants people to think.

Well, it would be nice if there was an operating system that worked as I wanted it to out of the box. But there's no such thing, so I'm okay with "great after initial configuration". My Linux setup, for me, is much greater than any other I've ever used.

That's why software freedom isn't a matter of abstract ideology to me.

Okay, so you could potentially get a computer.

Now, think about accessing the resources to learn programming: Books, Documentation, Compilers, IDE...

I recall being on 56k internet in 2001, paying by the hour. Couldn't have learn programming, except going around and buying books and tools on CD and offline documentation.

That was the hell of a barrier to entry compared to today.
Nobody does that because in Windows 7, the power button was by default wired to immediately suspend to ram. Why would a user expect it to act differently?
> Behave like us, or get the hell out. Is that racist to you?

Depends on the level of behaviour. But largely yes that is a fairly racist sentiment.
No, that's nonsense.

No one liked Win 98, and it was comprehensively EOL'd by Win XP - which always ran fine on iX machines.

Now, many people still prefer Win 7 to the creeping user-hostile horror that is Win 10 - if only because it's possible to use Win 7 with relative confidence that an update won't suddenly kill your machine, or your webcam, or your Kindle, or whatever else MS manages to screw up in the next year or two.

That's not a trivial difference. MS+Intel are attempting to force users towards an OS that is inherently broken, and - given the level of competence on display in the Windows division at the moment - is unlikely to ever work reliably.

There are some workarounds. There are old shows, where the product placements are no longer relevant. "Mom! The Shadow says we should buy Blue Coal." (Yes, that's a radio show; how about the Zima sign in a Babylon 5 episode?)

Or old shows which were funded by other sources, like Fraggle Rock.

There are also foreign shows, like ones from the BBC, which aren't allowed to use product placement, or where the products aren't available local.

That said, most kids want to watch what their friends watch. I doubt "The Vicar of Dibley" will be popular among US kids, making my proposal mostly theoretical.

After thinking about it for a bit, if such workarounds prove popular, the provider will likely start inserting product placement into the shows digitally, after the fact. So, umm, nevermind.
> When the AMD Opteron came out in 2003, did Windows 95 run on it? I don't think so.

It did. That was the whole point of AMD64, as opposed to Itanium: It runs all the legacy crap you could possibly wish to.
On Emirates A380s there's a bar, with a bartender. How about that?
Yes, but that doesn't work if you require Windows, such as for gaming. There's SteamOS, but its support is still limited.
If gaming was as universally supported on linux as on Windows, then I'd switch right away, but unfortunately Windows is still its major platform so you need to try and make the best out of its shortcomings, if you're serious about gaming.
Yep. Their assumption is that whatever content users "want to see" will be most valuable to those users, and will therefore generate the most revenue, and will therefore be able to outbid other competitors.

Problem #1: people aren't in general rational, and willingness to pay isn't always correlated with value derived. How many people benefit from Wikipedia, compared with the number who donate money?

Problem #2 (more severe IMO): if I understand correctly (the white paper is very hazy on details), the bidding process is based on capital, not income. Anyone with sufficient reserves of LBC can squat on a name and extract value from it with zero recurring cost.
Unfortunately for the coherency of that argument, the same point applies to MS itself.

Microsoft is under no obligation to cater to the needs of any customers whatsoever.

Which is fine. MS can shoot itself in the head if it wants to.

But there will be consequences for the company.

> Old MacOS versions also don't support newer hardware

Which is why nobody uses MacOS in production for anything but end user devices.

> old Linux kernels neither

They do. All major enterprise distributions backport drivers exactly for that reason – and unlike with Windows, you can update the kernel in place without having to touch any other part of your software stack. Your software won't care whether it's running on top of Linux 2.4 or 4.2, but it will care whether it's running on Windows 7 or Windows 10.
With your skills, you could help with the balance. Out here and with your karma account ;)
Point taken. So if I'm understanding right, Python 2 converts int to long when necessary, whereas in Python 3 int is already a long to begin with.
Fair call, they are hackers who use it for their own purposes. I'd just love to see more open source hackers start with the mindset of advancing user experience from the very outset.
The answer, I think, is in the book you're reading. Search was stuck long before Google came. Then came Google and they made search better. Right now, search again is stuck. Until someone comes up with a way that everybody else is missing, to take search to a new level.

> And why is the author talking about "expropriation" instead of "taxing"?

The process of expropriation usually occurs suddenly and forcefully in the name of the public interest and are focused on one specific group. Taxes on the other hand, are taken regularly and are applied to everyone (although at a different rate).

> No one liked Win 98,

As I recall Win 98 and 98SE were hugely popular. People may not have loved them, but I don't think it was generally disputed that they were a huge improvement over Win 95. In fact, hardly anyone liked Win ME, and many clung to 98 until XP arrived, much like people clung to XP and avoided Vista until Win 7 arrived.
This is clickbait.
I am yet to come to that point of the book. Where is the search stuck at the moment? I can't seem to understand that.

Revisionist bullshit. Every new version of a Microsoft OS had been met with derision and complaints that "the previous version was the best" up until another version is released. People thought XP was going to be the ME release of Win 2000 with it first came out.
Since PVS is a static source-level checker, I don't see how it would make sense to check JVM bytecode.

People freaking loved win98 once a few service packs got released, especially if they had the plus pack.

They didn't like Windows ME. Or Vista.

Why should they have moral compasses?

Like it will make any difference. There are people in the military that will go to church and then invade a country like Lybia or Syria for their oil or gas while believing they are doing good for humanity.

We need less moral compasses and more accountancy, checks and balances of the people in power. It should never be about self control, but controls in the institutions.
> Nginx then introduced a eventloop, which was way better.

>A EventLoop mechanism always means that your stuff should be non-blocking and that is hard.

hmm ;)

So you are saying you need to think about the system your code is running in?

Even an Event Loop server, if CPU utilization is sufficiently highly, paralellizing a function can be counter productive due to overhead and cache thrashing.
I’m not sure what I could do – I have a bomb here from such a class on my system, and could send you it, but I don’t have much of the teaching materials.

What I can suggest to you is learning how to use GDB (if you want to get fancy, use the Radare2 bundle), and learning quite a bit of x86 ASM and calling conventions.
Reclaiming the web in &lt; 100 lines of code
The project was originally for learning purposes, as I wanted to try out Go's concurrency/parallelism for something not web related. It quickly grew into a collection of common image processing functions, so I decided to turn it into a Go package.

The goal of the library is ease of use and development instead of being the fastest implementation (and then loosing too much readability). That being said, it is not slow but there's still room for improvement, which will be addressed during the optimisation and bug fixing stage.

I'm not sure if it's the same as xv, to be honest I haven't worked with it before. But it looks interesting, thanks for the link!

I don't see it that way, particularly after reading about how you were able to solve your hardware driver - disk space problem. You were able to use your favourite search engine to get a solution. It was solved.

Currently I have a problem with my frontend developer's Mac running MAMP. It takes several seconds for a page to load. It is some simple DNS error, it times out 'looking for itself' on the network. So we tried many things, disabling ipV6, changing the hosts file, re-installing the MAMP software, changing the ethernet connection, disabling the wifi - it goes on. We also realised we had a paid for product and asked for support - config files sent off, no resolution. We also got two people from the company IT dept. to try and resolve it, again to no avail.

If you are trying to develop a website where you want every page load to be less than three seconds then it is no good if it takes ten seconds to load a page from your local development box. So this was an important fix. Searching the internet for solutions was no joy, it was as if the answers were were kludges that sometimes worked for some people with no substance to why the fixed worked. There was no underlying knowledge, just 'hacks'. This happens a lot in closed source world.

I am okay with arcane terminal commands, they can be reproduced and understood if need be. I don't mind copying and pasting them in, semi-blindly. As per your example, things can be fixed that way. But, at the moment, I find myself frustrated by a paid for bit of 'pro' software on a top-end machine with a 'pro' operating system that has no documented way to fix it.

In my specific example my colleague is pleased that a website can be developed on the localhost. 10 second page load times are 'no problem'. However, the same repository on my basic linux box with half the RAM and lame i5 CPU hits the 3 second target load times with no problems. I feel that too many 'users' are happy with what they have - 'wow I can develop stuff locally!' - to not realise that the performance is poor compared to the 'developer' linux solution. They don't see the need to fix the performance problems, they do not imagine better is possible unless it is actively sold to them - 'new, faster computer!!!', 'enterprise version' etc. They are forever beholden to marketeers rather than a community.
same thing... the whole article seems so naïve...
I did put it below Java on the table because it wasn't build in, but yes, the experience of adding it was very easy. I learned Rust...well I Wouldn't even say I have learned it yet. Didn't have any trouble.

"No one liked Win 98, and it was comprehensively EOL'd by Win XP"

That's not true at all. Windows XP was based on NT, so had a very different technical base than 98. It had a completely different driver model, and could not run real-mode DOS apps. There was tons of hardware and software that it couldn't run. There were lots of people running 98 for a very long time to run legacy apps and hardware after XP came out. There probably still are.

The big difference is that those machines aren't on the internet, so no software maintenance is required.
This should make #1 on HN. Oh, sure, there are many doubts as to how and when this will actually be implemented, but still, it's a great step forward.

Do you have any links to historical documents about burning Christians by Nero? From what I've read, a large part of such stories sprang up mostly (or solely) from the early and medieval christian sources, which were dominant or even only sources at the time when christian church had the leading role in what was left of Western Roman Empire.

So, they needed a villain for the martyrdom of their saints, and Nero was very convenient to paint as one.

that won't be the case in a EventLoop system, it could be the case if you just have too less hardware. But than even your "non paralized" code will fail.
