It depends entirely on whether there are still developers interested in maintaining support for those architectures. It seems pretty safe to assume that Torvalds isn't going to be in favour of "we drop anything without a rust backend tomorrow"; but on the other hand 8 archs were dropped in 2018 -- https://lwn.net/Articles/749292/ -- essentially for lack of any active interest in them. It's possible that eventually "set of archs with a rust backend" and "set of archs which people care about enough to keep alive in the kernel" converge to the same set. It's even possible that one day "does this even have a rust backend?" becomes a marker of "is this thing really of use to anybody" in the same way that in 2018 "does this thing have support in upstream gcc" was a marker for "maybe we can drop this". That would be years from now, if ever, though, IMHO.

Can someone with more knowledge than me explain what benefit Rust presents to a low level codebase such as a kernel?

I am a C programmer by trade who has played with Rust. It is a great language but there is very little you can do safely. In higher level projects you can mostly push the un-safety into the standard library.

But when you have to do everything yourself, all of the "buggy" code has to be marked unsafe anyway. Allocating and accessing(!!) memory is unsafe. Interfacing with C or asm is unsafe. Your buffer/vector implementation is unsafe.

Basically, all the common culprits for memory bugs in C would be the code marked unsafe if rewritten in rust. So what is the benefit?

Although at 144 Hz it's still 14% of your frame time well if we believe their numbers, the worst case is 0.5ms so 6% of frame time for 144hz. Assuming their stated average pause time of 0.05ms then average pauses (and the GC isn't constantly pausing) take 0.6% of frametime, which is negligible.
Though your concerns on throughput and resource usages stands.

I concur that it sucks that Ethernet is in a rut for some reason.

But even on 10G that's no picnic. Sure, that works for a single user, but add a few more people and it's not hard to run into trouble. Such a system can't for instance just drop frames when the network is overloaded which to me makes this more of a curiosity than something anybody would actually want to use in practice.

I'm a huge proponent of vaccinations but this attitude is very concerning. I see it too with J&J, where we have data showing lower efficacy rates and no data on long term avoidance of chronic side-effects of COVID (such as chronic pain and fatigue, organ damage, clots, etc), only data on hospitalization rates (which yes, are on par with other vaccines). And if you dare question any of this, you're immediately shut down and told to shut up. It just makes me trust J&J even less. I'm young and healthy, my biggest risk is not hospitalization but the long term side effects, do not suppress this and do not act like it's wrong to question these things in an informed and intelligent manner.
> Some people criticise RMS because they've been trained by the Skinner box that is social media to dogpile onto anyone who's the target of criticism, or because all their friends don't like RMS and they want to fit in, or because they've made a career out of outrage. I don't like these people and view them as pack-hunting predators.

Sure, but this behavior isn't any different from people dogpiling on attacking perceived 'SJW' behavior. Somehow Hacker News seems to be very sensitive to one kind of dogpiling while completely ignoring the other.

For example, I didn't see anyone here screaming about Timnit Gebru's being forced out of Google because her research didn't align with the company's vision. Most of the comments about the topic were people either defending Google or accusing her of being 'too lefty' and therefore deserving of the outcome.

So it seems that Hacker News isn't so much concerned about 'free speech' in the work place, but rather about certain kinds of free speech being allowed, while others... they are pretty ambivalent about.

Good observation.

This is a fundamental principle of garbage collection. You can either have low latency or high throughput. You can't get both.

Why is that?

All optimizations that improve latency come at a cost. Generally, more book keeping, more checks, more frequent garbage collections. ZGC is one of those algorithms. It adds a new check every time you access memory to see if it needs to be relocated. That increases the size of objects but also the general runtime of the application.

A similar thing happens with reference counting (which is on the extreme end of the latency/throughput tradeoff). Every time you give a shared pointer or release a shared pointer a check is performed to see if a final release needs to happen.

On the flip side, a naive mark and sweep algorithm is trivially parallelizable. The number of times you check if memory is still in use is bound by when a collection happens. In an ideal state you increase heap size until you get the desired throughput.

We get "violations" of some of these principles if we can take shortcuts or have assumptions about how memory is used and allocated. For example, the assumption that "most allocations are short lived" or the generational hypotheses leads to shorter pause times even when optimizing for throughput without a lot of extra cost. It's only costly when you've got an application that doesn't fit into that hypotheses (which is rare).

Haskell has a somewhat unique garbage collector based on the fact that all data is immutable. They can take shortcuts because older references can't refer to newer references.

There are only a tiny handful of Android phone models that get security patches after 2–3 years are up, and they are generally rather expensive phones. Sometimes phones are supported for longer by LineageOS, but the LineageOS devs emphasize that they are only a group of hobbyists, they don't work for you, and they can drop support for a phone any time they want (because they e.g. lost their phone of that model, or simply lost interest).
Laser improvements are galactic algorithms, though, and don't give you that at all.

New Atheism refers to a specifically anti-religious/anti-theist viewpoint-- see Dawkins, Sam Harris, etc.

I am not familiar enough with H.G. Wells's religious leanings (or lack thereof) to make any kind of comparison between Wells's views and those of New Atheism's proponents, although I will note that War of the Worlds was written early enough that Wells may not have been atheist yet.

It's possible that energy is a sort of axiomatic property. Meaning it can't be further deduced or explained similar to a mathematical axiom.

I doubt consciousness is such a thing though. Asking "what is Consciousness?" is like asking "What does it mean to be American?" Being American is purely a made up phenomenon and my argument is that although it is may not seem this way, the word consciousness is largely the same thing, just a complex category.
Recording provides power to the weaker entity because they can expose the more powerful entity. The ability to expose is the only equalizing power a weaker entity has.

For example, an employer with power over an employee can ask the employee to do something unscrupulous without worrying about being exposed if the law forbids the employee from being able to expose the employer.

For a large corporation versus small individual, I don’t see what the small individual would ever have to lose by being recorded (or gain by not being recorded). The small individual is never going to be in a position where they can twist the large corporation’s hand into doing something wrong, and if they were, then I would say the large corporation is the weaker party in that interaction.

I don’t support whatever these police are doing per se but this doesn’t seem like something the EFF should get involved in. What does this have to do with digital privacy or defending free speech? This is just a police department deciding where its police should be patrolling.

How to stay motivated, according to the Internet
Picture this: you’re lying down in bed on a Sunday night, about to go to sleep, when your brain decides it’s time to plan how you’re going to get your life together.

“Tomorrow, I’ll start exercising and eating healthier. I’ll wake up 10 minutes earlier to plan my day. And I’ll read ten pages of a book every day.”

But when the alarm goes off, you start procrastinating again. Instead of waking up 10 minutes earlier, you wake up 20 minutes late. You have no time for breakfast, so you grab a Pop-Tart as you sit down to work. And since you didn’t have time to plan out your day, you end up working until 9 p.m., leaving no time to work out.

I'm not saying you are russian bot, I'm saying governments and companies that don't like SpaceX have spread a lot of misinformation and people pick them up as facts.

I didn't say these ideas were dangerous, just wrong.

SpaceX became commercially dominate when they were had less government money then Orbital, ULA or Arianespace. That is simple fact.

For these companies like Arianespace to have the odacity to complain that SpaceX get financed by government contract while they literally got a check for Ariane 6 that is larger then all development money received by SpaceX for Falcon 9, Falcon Heavy, Dragon 1, Cargo Dragon (2), Crew Dragon.

Not to mention that the money for Ariane 6 is just for that rocket, the individual engines have been government financed with separate budgets for far longer. The Vinci for example has been funded with government money since 2003.

Is just insane cognitive dissonance for them to claim foul.

> their criticism will have a kernel of truth

It my have a kernel of truth but if the 'truth' is something totally banal like 'Reusability is not a panacea.' then that doesn't actually make their arguments valid.

You can just go threw the time progression on the competitors about SpaceX since 2010, first they claimed their prices were not achievable and they would go bankrupt, then they had to much backlog and they couldn't achieve high launch rates, then it was that they couldn't land rockets, then it was that they couldn't actually reuse them, then it was they can't reuse them economically, then it was that while maybe each reuse was economical overall it was not economical because there are not enough launches overall.

The fact is SpaceX launched 50% of the global payload to Orbit, and over around 30% of all spacecraft. Likely this year SpaceX will launch closer to 70% of global payload to Orbit. Their strategy has clearly paid of and allowed them to do thing that were considered impossible not long ago.

> https with self-signed certificate, which basically makes any modern browser tell its user that they're in a very imminent danger of violent death should they decide to proceed, or just go with good old HTTP but then you hit all sorts of limitations, and obviously zero security.

If you go the self-signed route, you'll encounter devices that simply won't work with them, especially IoT devices. If you got the HTTP route, you'll still encounter devices that simply won't work with them. For example, you can't cast an HTTP resource from Chrome or Chromium to a Chromecast, even if it exists on your LAN.

As long as there are devices that you can't insert your own certificates into their certificate stores, this will be an issue.

Aimee Challenor is apparently a Reddit employee. This is why Reddit is banning her mention.

Seems extremely sus to me and why we can't rely on private companies to protect things like free speech and equal access to information.
To add to that https I think is one part of the puzzle.

This weekend I watched a bunch of scam bait calls. Very amusing to watch them get taken down. But there are people out there mailing 20k in fedex boxes to scammers. All because their browser said 'your balance is 20000 and I transferred too much to the account, could you mail that back to me so I do not get in trouble?'. It is a very human attack using a combination manipulation, fear and compassion. The bottom line is these people unknowingly allowed people to open the debug console in their browser to change things.

What I have been trying to figure out in my head is how do we do a digital watermark on data presented to the user? How do we at a minimum tell the user their data has been manipulated? You can have all the TLS on every level but at one of the most important ones there is nothing. A scammer can open a debug console on a https presented page just as much as a http page.

Despite all the vitriol, I have a degree of sympathy for the Reddit admin in question. I can't imagine how distressing it must be to be turned into a worldwide hate figure overnight; that has to be extremely psychologically damaging. Among the mob will be genuinely hateful and equally vile people who'll probably send a tsunami of death threats.

Reddit is in a bit of a difficult place; perhaps because of the legal duty of care Reddit has to their employee (particularly to someone who can legitimately claim to be marginalised) they can't just toss her to an incensed mob. Especially if that incensed mob was created by the actions of Reddit making clumsy choices.

Here in southern central PA right close to the MD line a lot of us have access to Comcast. Though that was it until recently I discovered and now have T-Mobile 5G Home Broadband at $50 a month (no promotion); speeds up to 100Mbps. Verizon will probably within a year or two offer a similar service.

I called Comcast to cancel my Internet and was surprised their retention deals currently do not match what I have with T-Mobile 5G. In time im sure they will and finally have to compete.
You'd write the allocator or low-level memory access logic once with unsafe code and afterwards all code using the functionality can be written as safe code. That limits the amount of code that can have data races.
Seems it's the exact opposite scenario? The value of VC was close mentorship and network building and with a mass of companies this will likely be diluted. Companies already out of YC have presumably found product-market fit and secured funding so their YC cachet is already less important. If the actual value of YC is name brand recognition maybe that brings up an important question about its utility.
