> First, [hoisting a subcomponent into its own process] requires decoupling the code and making it asynchronous, which is usually time-consuming and may impose a performance cost.

It may need to be asynchronous because of Firefox's peculiar infrastructure for process isolation, but if the intraprocess calls can be synchronous, the interprocess function calls could in principle also be synchronous. By default that's literally how most syscalls work, at least in Unix-like systems. And it's the direction microkernels seemed to have turned--synchronous calls work just fine, and you don't need a bunch of specialized asynchronous calling infrastructure inside the kernel itself.

This seems like a classic case of using a novel solution to subtly redefine the problem. If you just redefined the problem at the outset you wouldn't need so much contrivance.
People like me understand full well that crony-capitalism is a boat anchor around the necks of the drowning in a republican democracy. Nor did I ever say that people shouldn't be free to consume any opinion, or hold their own as they see fit. No one, however, is entitled to their own facts, and some opinions are worth less than others.

You can't build a market around a one time summer event followed by decades of low volume/pay.
It didn’t compete with 68k which is much older traditional CISC processor which was never scaled up. The 68k died out with Apple switching to PPC except for embedded use where it lived on primarily with the Motorola Dragonball line. Freescale then licensed ARM cores for use in the MX series of MCUs that were briefly branded Dragonball as well. Competitors were PowerPC, MIPS and ARM and even x86 which was always a bit player even in embedded (and consoles sort of with the Xbox)

For 25+ years I'm not sure I've ever thought of the Mac market as primarily technophiles, so much as a crowd interested in the "pursuit aesthetic" and notably not interested in looking behind the technical curtain.

The user group that was technical was a relatively late demographic. But Macs were always (well, since my memories in 90's) targeted towards this odd trifecta of the media production crowd (high-dollar professionals and aspiring high-dollar creators), academics, and grandparents (people with money who just wanted things to 'work'). Still seems that way to me, I guess. The closed nature of the hardware and the traditional lack of servicing to people who wanted to "break" things even on the software front was always a bit off-putting to technophiles until relatively recently (2013-2020ish?), but I might say there was a bit of a blind eye towards the faults in light of the awesome advantages. The fading appeal is likely just a more honest assessment of the platform/ecosystem in light of improving options (linux from the factory with working drivers, WSL). I mean, thank God for Apple driving quality in hardware and software. Maybe that's what you meant by technophiles - those with a love of what technology can be in its most refined and integrated sense, rather than the nerds who love to tear shit apart and improve it.

Phones, on the other hand, are an everybody thing, but that broad appeal goes back even to the first iPhone at the turn of the century to my memory. Ever since Apple has had stores, I think the phone/ipad/accessory/gadget crowd has been an ever-present customer.

Just my opinions, worth what you paid for 'em.

"Beauty is everywhere," is something I agree with strongly. The rest of this crap is the arrogance of despair. Furthermore, it is the same brand of despair peddled by hundreds or thousands of other "journalists" with no connection to the everyday reality of their audience.

"Allowing poverty to continue is now a choice" ... Perhaps it is; but you want to force the choice you made on everybody, without taking precautions against the horrors such social programs have inevitably brought about in the past.

Bioinformatician here. What are you hoping to find? If you just want to search for variants, and your VCF file is germline variants and annotated appropriately, yeah that will work. You may need to annotate the VCF.

As far as discovering new associations or causal relationships from a single WGS, you are probably not going to have any luck there.

Love what you've built so far! I've always wondered why it's so much easier to get feedback on code and product design mockups, but the hardware world has yet to catch up. It would be especially nice to streamline discussion between EEs, mechanical engineers, and maybe even industrial designers.

I think the key is creating a space where people can comment in context, as someone here suggested, and take action on the comments. Similar to Figma or Google Docs, the ability to facilitate discussion and iterate quickly makes the design process faster. That's essentially what we're trying to build at Flux.ai (I'm a cofounder).

We're still in private beta and have lots to figure out, but I'd love to chat with you and get your thoughts on what we've built so far :)
I don't really think it's worth piling on the topic more, but Fastly's post (original topic) expands on why the test is poor in other ways worth reading over again.

Beyond just those points, the whole Cloudflare blog post reads like an attempt at a performance sales kill sheet. (In other words, their sales may point to this as to why folks should choose Cloudflare Workers over Fastly Compute@Edge.)
You can get an analog temperature / humidity sensor on amazon for pretty cheap.

Unfortunately, they are more B2B focused these days than the B2C focus they started with, but you might also check out Awair, if you haven't seen it already. Their main product is $300 though.

I did some quick searching on Amazon and found out that they make an Amazon-branded $70 air quality monitor. It's brand new.

https://www.amazon.com/Introducing-Amazon-Smart-Quality-Moni...

That said, I wonder if an air purifier wouldn't be a better first choice if you don't have one already. You can found a decent one for a medium-sized room around the same price point.

Airthings is another brand that appears to be worth checking out. They have several different models with the entry level at $65.

Ikea just came out with something inexpensive as well.

Spotify charges it's artists to run ad campaigns... So that later in the year they'll have good stats on spotify wrapped.

It would be far too convenient for them to limit the outreach of artist based on the normal merits of their music, so this makes them lots of money on both ends, and then artists desperate to project symbols of success, eagerly participate in the popularity chase... This is what it's all come to, while artists rarely break even because of the ad spending they have to do to be notable on spotify.

Perhaps it will just wait another year to all implode, maybe not, either way the smart ones stay out of the gambling addiction schemes and just work on making music first.
I've ordered the STM32F3 & thinking of ordering the audio dev STM32F4 board to try out Humility.

I read all the docs and I understand Humility as an OS, it's extremely simple (for a OS) and it is going to be fun to develop against. Or at least, I'm excited to give it a shot.

My initial ideas are audio controllers that parse sensor streams and convert that to OSC signals but I have no idea what implementing the network stack will look like as I need UDP from Rust on a microcontroller.

If anyone has experience and wants to share drop me a line at @ben:matrix.graythwaite.ca I'd love to chat about it

I've looked into some of the engineering that goes into Web3, and while I'm incredibly impressed, I can't quite shake the feeling that all we're doing is getting really good at counting paperclips. What real world problems does Web3 solve? It seems like Web3 has a ton of great solutions to problems that Web3 creates. Most problems that Web3 claim to solve can be solved through non blockchain solutions and even decentralization doesn't require a blockchain. The Internet is already decentralized to begin with.

Lost the urge to fight, and thats probably the most significant factor, its the basic instinct the military know how to develop and control. After all basic training is a test to see if you can control yourself on the drill square with some drill sargeant shouting and spitting into your ears and face to see if you will react or not. The military do violence the best, its their job to know everything about it in case of war and this also means ignoring the laws and rules when fighting for survival.
Why would someone want to suicide/euthanise themselves and involve anyone else, beyond disposal of the body. Why does science need to know why someone wants to end their life, surely they should recognise its none of their business so why should lawyers, judges, doctors, politicians get involved.

This link states in 2018 Apple (1st place on reliability with 665 pts) was 2-3x more reliable than Samsung (2nd place 270 pts). Then in 2019 Apple suddenly became half as reliable (now 130pts) as Samsung? Seems suspect at best.

They seem to rank based on all service calls to their third party IT firm. Apple's top service calls were printer and email help (40% between them) and hardware was 0.53%.[1]

It’s how nearly everyone pronounces it, and for the most part spells it in common usage. The formal thing IIRC is that the name is PostgreSQL as it was originally a successor to Ingres, and added SQL support later.
The Reddit post didn’t link directly to the study. Reactions there range from “omg Star Trek” to “nothing to see here, it’s all math/computer models.”

I’ll admit that I lack sufficient math and physics education to fully appreciate the study, but after reading the actual abstract I must say that it certainly seems more grounded than either of those two extreme reactions.

There’s a lot of suggestive and uncertain language being used like “to be qualitatively quite similar”, “correlates well with”, or “correlation would suggest”, and I’m uncertain if I should Interpret the rhetoric as conservative excitement sprinkled with self doubt, or if this is the physics PhD researcher version of ostentatious nerd flexing with a bit of CYA in case future research/results don’t pan out.

I’m looking forward to reading the comments of the European physics and engineering PhDs in the morning.

> I found the real gold mine of C++ kernel module development knowledge in OSDev.org. They have an entire article on C++ issues. That includes avoiding templates

No, it doesn't?!? The linked article mentions templates two times (+ 2 mentions of the standard template library), once saying that templates can be used without further setup and the other times recommending that some template based data structures should be implemented. That's pretty far from "avoiding templates".

I forgot, to be honest, that I had two other Gmail logins running on my headless tower at the other end of the room, so requests were coming from my country and from the US simultaneously.

Since I wasn't trying to evade geoblocking, I now use a VPN that's set to my own city AND I shut down the applications on the headless machine. But that still leaves my phone sucking in mails on a non-VPN connection, and that's not so easy to fix, because I'm damned if I'll switch it off every time I need a VPN, or trouble myself to use a VPN on that too.

So, yeah, in general I'm worried too. Personally I think we'll look back on VPN use in five years the way that early 20thC cocaine addicts fondly remember when you could just buy the stuff over the counter without a scrip in pharmacies. Sorry to see China setting the pace on this one.

I feel you aren't being fair here. Stacks are an implementation of being able to resume execution after a unit of work is done. That is what is wanted.

Rust has generators and async await which covers the most popular form of them. General generators aren't in only due to Rust having a hardcore backwards compatibility guarantee that other than not having an ABI is one of the strongest out there.

There's a very good reason such a thing doesn't exist: any C compiler that worked like that would break the vast majority of C programs.

Fundamentally, memory safety requires that you keep track of not just where a pointer currently points to, but where a pointer could validly point to. But, as applied in practice, the C ABI requires that pointers be integers of where it currently points to; making pointers also include range information (aka "fat" pointers) is possible, but requires rewriting almost any software you care about--it's the kind of change that's about as fundamental to C programs as assuming 2's complement arithmetic.

The way tools like ASAN and Valgrind work is by instead keeping track of where any pointer could point to (via shadow maps, basically a bit per memory location saying if you can read/write that location), and then padding every allocation with sufficient space that an innocuous read overflow (especially one-past-the-end) is likely to hit the padding. Their guarantees are at best probabilistic, not anything you would want to rely on for security.
Nice. It was a silly jab anyhow, seeing as you need to contact a rep at Fastly to even sign up for their product or get a quote on its cost.

Fastly made it sound like contacting Cloudflare is "impossible", yet here you and one of your top devs are.
Database optimization and the level of normalization is a complex topic that varies widely based on application and workload.

JSON is absolutely a valid approach to data storage when dealing with certain data structures. As is using a relational database and jsonb data types for it. Cherry picking columns gives you the advantages for both a NoSQL document storage database as well as a relational analytics database.

This is a pretty common modern technique that Postgres, for example, has made easy.

Go try modeling a FHIR database structure using standard normalization rules.

You'll quickly discover why no one does it. Even HAPI FHIR server (the most full featured and popular FHIR server) written in Java doesn't attempt it.

After seeing the other comments I guess this wire transfer issue is specific to the US. I agree that a tiny number of sellers would accept crypto payment today, but what do you mean exactly when you say it is "only imaginary"? Transferring USDC is very real and exists today. I don't expect the average person to ever transfer USDC the way it is done today, it would be a terrible user experience. But I'm trying to figure out the disconnect between what I see as a powerful financial primitive and what you see as imaginary

2018 was the year the US SEC really cracked down on ICOs. First a few of the totally fraudulent ones.[1] Then, anything that looked like a security offering.[2]

The IRS has been gradually upping the pressure. Form 1040 for 2020 included, for the first time on the main form, the question "At any time during 2020, did you sell, receive, send, exchange or otherwise acquire any financial interest in any virtual currency?" The IRS has access to Know Your Customer data from many crypto exchanges, so, anyone who checks "No" and has a crypto exchange account will get attention.
Here's a history of the IRS slowly tightening its grip on cryptocurrencies.[3]
