When you allocate objects individually it looks like this:

object_a = tlab
tlab += 8
check tlab limit
object_b = tlab
tlab += 8
check tlab limit

When you allocate as a single allocation it looks like this:

object_a = tlab
object_b = tlab + 8
tlab += 16
check tlab limit

What about that do you see as impossible?

> How could the GC possibly know where each object starts and ends if it did it as a single allocation?

The point of a single address space OS is that you can pass pointers/references between modules without requiring any form of marshalling, nor introducing memory safety problems.

WASM cannot do this because it's meant to be a target for C and C-like languages. Either you have to make one WASM address space contain all your software, in which case it can easily corrupt itself internally (the sandbox is useless because it contains everything), or, you have to re-introduce a process-like concept that gives you isolated memory spaces, at which point it's not a single address space OS anymore.
A policy like that would make me sick!
> I think you might have missed the implication that the humans are doing a terrible job, so a computer doesn't have to be very good to beat them in this situation.

That doesn't really matter, because I was responding to the the sci-fi sentiment that "of course the computer must be better because computer." It doesn't matter if the humans are doing a poor job if the computer is still worse.

It can, but parent's cynicism is very understandable if one looks around at the hot new exciting technology of today and compares it to the hot new exciting technology of decades past. Pretty much the entire high-paying tech space right now is either solving non-problems or actively creating and promoting problems.
Or they end up quitting in disappointment and disgust or not bothering to begin with.
I'm curious how this works in practice. A conscientious employee will honor the 3 month term, of course. But if there is animosity, or a lack of trust, or a feeling of betrayal etc. etc. how does the company keep the employee working for those 3 months? As opposed to having a desk vacation?
Don't - you won't change anybody's mind and you'll look unprofessional. Zero upside, some potential downside. Just don't.

I think I did this once in my first ever job search after university when I sent an email with feedback on their feedback; it's still kind of embarassing to think about.
shot-scraper is terrific, thank you!

Right now I'm using a bash script instead of YAML file for screenshotting multiple sites I maintain, as there is no option to add a timestamp to the filenames, something like this (simplified):

declare -A capture
capture[www.foo.com]=https://www.foo.com/
capture[www.foo.com-bar]=https://www.foo.com/bar

for key in "${!capture[@]}" ; do
shot-scraper ${capture[$key]} -o - > $key_$(date +"%Y-%m-%d_%H_%M")
done

Otherwise it is a terrific tool, able to screenshot websites that are otherwise very difficult due to CDNs, javascript, etc. Thank you very much!
This is an interesting take to me, because it seems to be how many of my coworkers work. It's not how I think about things.

I enjoy technology, but it's hard for me to just focus on tech without a purpose for using it. All of the projects I'm proud of aren't because of the tools I used. Instead, I'm proud that I delivered something useful.

Yet, I still completely agree with your statements about "MBA puff". I've been on projects where they extol how valuable a project is going to be and it doesn't stand up to a minute of scrutiny. Other projects would be valuable, but never get into the hands of real users.

On the projects I'm proud of, I was directly working with someone who actually would benefit from the project. There wasn't a question of whether it was worth it. The users weren't puffing up the project to be more than it was. They have a job to do and I'm helping them do it better. Interestingly, this also meant that they didn't care how I approached the problem.

The real sweet spot for projects is where working on interesting tech goes hand-in-hand with delivering something useful.

Commercial vendors adopted opensource due to lower cost of ownership, not due to perceived lack of problems or because "community knows exactly what is what"

That's why really well designed abstractions are so important, and leaky abstractions are a nightmare.
You don't get paid for solving the problem, you get paid for transforming the problem using software such that people become dependant on software to "solve" it. Now you can charge them for it. You can also insert software into places where no problems have been yet identified, make them dependant on it and then charge them for it.

Replying a bit quickly so you might want to edit it but, you say 67th and that is a misread. The US is actually 27th/28th on the list. It ranks pretty well.

Particularly when the competition is somewhere like Denmark/Finland/New Zealand in slot one. I mean, sure. 6 million people is a mid-tier US state. There are probably some cracking good local councils out there too. The scale isn't impressive as far as 8 billion humans reckon it. If we want to break the world up into >1,000 countries with independent governments I'd consider that a step in the right direction for small government and cracking down on corruption.
Do you know any sources on on how set equivalence theory is related to integer programming? Because I don't see the immediate connection and I could not find anything on the internet, but maybe I used the wrong terms.
The powerful don’t want to give up their position, so accountability will never be a priority for them, because it’s a threat to their power.
The Westminster system has proven its utter failure to provide any measure of accountability for its executive when it emerged that the person who gets to decide whether Boris Johnson violated the Ministerial Code is one... Boris Johnson.

US Presidents have been impeached, and in the case of Nixon forced to resign. French Presidents, probably the most powerful executives in the West, have been successfully prosecuted for crimes committed in office. Same with Helmut Kohl, the King of Spain, or Italian Prime Ministers. British Prime Ministers get a free ride for war crimes like Tony Blair or gross corruption like Boris Johnson.
To safely remove the trucks from the street, nobody needs to be around the workers doing the towing. It's basic health and safety. Police repeatedly asked people to leave. Many refused, many complied. Would you have prefered the police run over the protesters with their own trucks?
Provided a contract or agreement doesn't stipulate otherwise.

A way to think about this is that while the constitution recognizes freedom of speech, signing an NDA results in the exchanges of one's right to disclose certain information in exchange for the privileges and benefits of employment.
> no-one seriously believes that Ukrainian army and civilians...are Nazis

This idea gets repeated a lot, that Putin and other Russians are just cynically waving the "fascist" red flag without really believing it. I'm not so sure. Richard Sakwa's Frontline Ukraine[1] examines how post-USSR developments in the Ukraine looked from the Russian perspective. While I think most Westerners would find much to take issue with in the Russian position, their calling Ukranian society "fascistic" is not a far stretch based on their perceptions.

From the opposing political view, Ukrainian historian Taras Kuzio[2] makes no attempt to hide that he passionately hates Russia. His differing take on the same events gives an interesting counterpoint to Sakwa's book. In reading Kuzio's books, I personally felt that his heavy partisanship was doing his case more harm than good.

By the way, if you want a well-informed, non-partisan analysis of recent Ukrainian history, I think you can't do any better than Paul D'Anieri's Ukraine and Russia: From Civilized Divorce to Uncivil War[3]

Are you really that careless with your privacy and your basic freedoms to the point that you make your choices based on the ~battery life~ of your computing device?

Sorry to pick on you, but whenever I hear these sorts of questions I realize how shallow people can be, even those who are (supposedly) informed and smart enough to know better.

To be worried about the inconvenience of ~shorter battery life~ over fundamental freedoms is like failing the marshmallow test for tech people.

> Were you officially diagnosed with ADHD. I never went to a doctor, but in the last years I had growing assumptions I might have ADHD or Asperger (or both).

> Do you follow certain strategies which made communicating your thoughts and ideas easier and/or better?

Not in a way I can easily teach. I learned my social skills late and had to study people to understand them. I take all of the inputs and outputs of a known person and mentally visualize what their internal state is. Then I play out how different phrasing will be received.

Whatever part of the brain normally handles social interaction is broken in mine, so I use logical thinking to run other people's brains in a virtual machine.
Maybe, corruption by peasants doesn't have that much impact compared to corruption en masse via wealthy people in the place where he lives? However, I do acknowledge that corruption is not just caused by wealthy people. The place where I live people have to do corruption if they want to live average quality life because the salary is so low. With the current salary, if they work honestly, they can't even afford a house for 15 years.

It's not the battery life that's the issue on Laptops these days, as it is typically better than windows.

The biggest issue is getting all the hardware supported out of the box. For example, there is a certain amount of mucking about you have to do to get any off the shelf laptop running Linux. On rare occasion system updates change something that the laptop doesn't like, hunting down that change can become tedious.

I am mostly ready for my own self-driving car (with my stuff inside and my settings and my cleanliness) that can Drop me off at the front door of my hotel and ferry itself back to the parking garage; or one that I can drive myself to work, and then it ferries itself back home to pick up my wife and kids to get to school. I don’t need my car to drive me necessarily, I just want it to go on and perform the next task for me. It can perform these autonomous tasks slowly and safely.
When a VM comes up, we write a service to consul and simultaneously broadcast an identical NATS message. Nodes that are in a happy place get the NATS message, update their state, and then reconcile against Consul when Consul catches up.

NATS has the benefit of being p2p, so when a VM comes up in Sydney, the other Sydney nodes see:

- The nats message in about 5ms

- Time passes (call it 1-10s when things are working well)

- Consul data includes new entry

We also use "hints" to broadcast things that we can afford to never see. Load on VMs is an example. When a VM hits its max concurrency, we broadcast a NATS message so other nodes can take that into account for load balancing.

I’ve always felt that this perspective entirely ignores that government is not the only source of extant power and that “order should arise naturally as an emergent system from the ground up always voluntarily with mutual benefit” is woefully idealistic (and functionally impossible) as we are not operating from a clean slate. There are already powerful people/entities that will take immediate advantage of governmental reduction in power to increase their own without any consideration of consent and/or mutual benefit.

As an idea, sure - it’s lovely; but, if enacted, I don’t see how it doesn’t lead to something akin to feudalism. I’d even go so far as to suggest that it has the feeling of an ideological strategy by the already powerful to get the average person to ‘unilaterally disarm’ their own collective power. I’d love to be proved wrong, of course.
Ah so it isn't as much "there are better ways to complete this objective," it's "this objective is stupid and I don't like the people that like it." That makes more sense given your general attitude in this thread.

The distros don't update Firefox as often as Firefox does. If you want leading-edge on Linux, it's best to install to a directory you have write access to with the official Linux Firefox installer, and let the browser update itself. Just my experience.
This is one reason I'm quite bullish about some of the 'old space' companies, like Boeing, Northrop and Lokheed. They may be losing out in launch systems, but they stand to make a fortune building a lot of the cargo Starship is going to launch. Someone's going to need to build all these satellites, probes, space stations, etc.

The same applies to ESA, do they actually care about building rockets, or is the interesting work to be done now all up there in orbit and beyond?

Starship isn't the end of innovation in space technology and infrastructure. It's not game over, it's the beginning.

PL/I is a kitchen sink language already.

Modern languages tend to minimize the amount of features that they provide in the language itself, and do as much as possible in their standard libraries.

(This also goes together with simplified syntax, because user-defined complex syntax is hard, slow and potentially ambiguous, whereas limiting verbose, "readable" syntax to just a handful of language-provided features is just silly.)

Making tech decisions that really take every important financial consideration into account are insanely complex.
I'm writing a book about it for 2 years now, full time, and decided to release the essence of it for free.

This is a prototype application, primarily targeted to software engineers, managers and anyone who runs a software company.
My goal is to offer systemic guidance to tame the complexity of these decisions while also
teaching how the practical side of software development is connected to financial results.

More generally, I would like to help everybody to deliver software that makes more users happy and in turn makes more money.
It's a work in progress, the covered topics are so broad I'm still exploring some of them.

I would be more than happy to receive criticism and feedback about the ideas, mechanisms or any other part of this material.
I don't think so. If you want to eat an elephant, eat it in group. :-)
Wealthy people are not corrupted, they are doing the corruption. As I said in other comment, not every wealthy man is a source of corruption. But poor people are not a source of corruption, because they don't have resources to corrupt officials. And poor officials are typically easier to corrupt. Again, probably way less than half of officials are corrupt.

> However it's much more convenient to paint wealthy people as the problem with the system then ascribe the problem to human nature as a whole or systemic problem.

Poor people don't have means to corrupt others, that's why corruption is typically coming from wealthy people.

"&#8204; is a ZWNJ, which I used because Reader Mode is too smart for its own good and will ignore an element that has empty text content or just an NBSP."

ZWNJ and its other zero-width friends is my ninja secret. Oh, are you demanding this text box be filled with something? No thank you. Have a ZWNJ.

Few, if any, sites that are "checking" for content being in some widget "correctly" filter out the entire Unicode space class. (I mean, I assume somewhere out there there is one, but so far this has never failed me.) Most of them just filter out ASCII space 32. A few are smart enough to filter out tabs as well; if Reader is also filtering out NBSP that already puts it at the head of the class. I'm not sure I've yet encountered one that is filtering out the entire Unicode class.

(On the other hand, I would submit that by the time someone has taken the time to find one and copy & paste it into your text widget, you should consider your options carefully. The user has just demonstrated significant technical sophistication. It may not be your wisest move to also filter that out. You want some Zalgo emojis? Because I can give you Zalgo emojis. You may not want Zalgo emojis; there are still some systems out there that emojis can break. You want to find out?)
