The Sega CD actually had a fair bit of RAM in it for the time. 512 KiB dedicated to the second 68K, 256KiB that could be swapped between the two processors or split into two 128 KiB banks with each processor getting one of those and 64 KiB of PCM RAM (there's also a little RAM for the CD-ROM drive's buffer and some battery backed up RAM for saves, but those aren't directly useful for game assets).

The library is very much a mixed bag, but I think a large part of that was game developers needing time to figure out what to do with all the extra space. The largest cartridge released during the Genesis/Mega Drive's heyday was only 5 MiB and most were a fair bit smaller than that. CD-ROM gave you two orders of magnitude more storage. The other problem is that Sega of America didn't believe there was much demand for RPGs in the US so while there were quite a lot of them released for the system in Japan, only a few of them made it here.

I think the main thing that did it in was the cost though. CD-ROM drives themselves weren't cheap at the time, all the RAM wasn't cheap and neither was all the extra hardware they stuffed in there. The much more modest CD add-on for the PC Engine/TG-16 sold almost as many units despite the base console being much less popular than the Genesis/Mega Drive and it seems likely that hardware costs were a major factor in that.
One company I worked for opened a position for an ops person on the team.

They shadow-IT’d their way to launch and we’re hugely successful, not the business is largely re-orging to better fit the paradigm.

Anyone have any suggested reads on x86-TSO? It's too late in the evening for me to make it far into Paul Cavallaro's overview[1], but it looks like a promising explanation.

What about ARM 8.7's FEAT_AFP instruction? Anything there?

Agreed, all of the early HTTP based streaming was about HTTP progressive download. Microsoft’s smooth streaming was dominant in the early 2000s used it too. Glad that Twitch has been using it.

For me, DASH and HLS are just manifests or playlist definitions, of how best to find the resource. It is not dissimilar to webrtc signalling, i.e., go to a resource to discover where to get other parts of the resource.
A password can very well be as secure as the ownership of a device. Compared to most 2FA schemes I love them because they are simple. I think if people are trained adequately it isn't an insurmountable barrier. But the industry never did develop good practices and bad ones are still around.

I don't like to have my key chain in the cloud at all. Loss or lack of access is far more likely this way. I already hate that services profile my device or location.
Your logic is much too simple, or we'd be working 7 days a week. Figure out how to answer that quandary before talking about 4 vs. 5.
The problem with “maths” is its sublimation. Maths is just what we use to deal with quantities and shapes, abstracted from their matter.

Whether it is using symbols, pebbles or categories, it is neither better nor worse.

But they make people think that “maths” is just a terrible abstract construction.

Congratulations, Team Wundergraph.

I've been using wundergraph for last couple of months in some hobby projects and also using it on my startup. It boost my team's productivity and API development process easy to easier. In the beginning, I had some doubts and problems on some places, but the community and wundergraph team! They helped me instantly. And overall experience is really impressive.

Wundergraph has become a part of our tech stack, and we wish the Jens and the full team, Best of luck. Will definitely use wundergraph in our future projects too.

It sounds fine and I like the concept, conceptually, but I have these things to say:

(1) Stocks have tight spreads (during standard trading hours) and slight differences in price execution is not an issue for long-term investors.

(2) Competition has already been driving down trading costs, and it’s done a great job. Investors (that I know) are aware of price execution quality differences, but that’s more of an options thing. (Credit card transaction fees are, in general, a bigger deal.)

(3) For naive, new investors, it’s so much easier for them get their feet wet with zero commissions trades.

(4) Brokers do have to make money.

I think any implementation of this plan should be delayed until after the recession has seen the newer, negative earnings brokers either turn the corner or die. It might be appropriate for extended hours orders first, and only if the broker has zero client-side commissions on trades.

Otherwise it would throttle instantly because your MBAir has a passive cooling system.

Also, it would make you infertile and it’d drain the battery faster than the charger can recharge it.
Ah yes... to explain: they require adapters, and these adapters are mechanically fragile - tugging the cable can break them. Ask me how I know...
> DDG tends to show some search term-related ads but those seem quite harmless and aren't loaded from 3rd party sites.

Disclaimer, I work for Ecosia, but I have to agree. The one moment when I'm totally fine with seeing some ads is when I'm actually actively searching for something to buy and those ads are relevant to my query. What I don't want is my search queries in one site to stalk me around the whole web. Pretty much only disable uBlock in Ecosia and DDG.
Why does the rosetta binfmt_misc setup exclude starting amd64 containers? It's the same functionality the Docker desktop arm64 VM currently uses to run the process for an amd64 container via qemu (or any non arm64 container).
Does that apply to itself?
It makes essentially no noticeable difference.

Over 22GB of that is cache. I’m sure some of that is useful but the overwhelming majority of it is just being used because the memory is freely available so why not? If it improves performance it’s not in anything I’ve ever managed to notice between my 16GB work machine and 64GB personal one (which are used for largely similar tasks, though I’d say the work one is a bit more heavily stressed).

Sure some cleanroom laboratory benchmark will say the 64GB version is faster. And for some workloads I’m sure it’s a bigger deal. But a human just isn’t going to perceive much practical benefit from a full Chrome restart being 5% faster or whatever.
Na it's not really true, you don't rent it (the name), you pay for the administrative work, you still ~have the namerights, like google.com...they own that name, because they are the "creator" of it.
The example here will still neglect the reality that the stack processing the input will significantly increase the latency.

The (likely) ps2 keyboard on the 486 will have lower input latency as it doesn't have the multiple complex (both hardware and software) stacks that each key-input will need to travel through. People say you can't feel it, but people are regularly incorrect.

I feel like Rick (C-137) when I say, you gotta experience low latency on something like the original pong machine (from 1972) to know what you're missing out on. Once you've used this, the wireless mice and USB keyboards will feel slow and laggy even in low latency software.
But that's not for you to decide. We live all together, and someone getting sick from an infectious disease concerns us all.
If they delegate it to a nameserver you specify, is it much different to a domain?

I am assuming they delegate in this manner, as opposed to some free web hosts who would host the nameservers and essentially just let you set A records.

Would you say that example.nsw.gov.au is a domain or a subdomain?
The first step is for Americans to stop using the word “lobbying” and call it like it is: corruption.

When a politician receives benefits for passing certain laws (often hard cash to their campaign!) they are a corrupt politician.

The term “lobbying” is the same kind of linguistic exceptionalism involved in the word “expat” vs “immigrant”.
> the grocery store clerks had more integrity and sense of duty

The grocery store clerks shouldn't have been risking themselves without hazard pay either.

I investigated virtualization framework recently and I'm kind of impressed. They really implemented a lot of things. And coming updates makes it even better.

Here's what I've learned:

1. You can run console Linux. But you need to download ARM ISO, extract kernel and initrd and find out exact kernel parameters. Not a big issue, but probably can't be done automatically. You can't just boot ISO.

2. Disk support is bad. No snapshots, etc. Just single file. I think that you can emulate snapshots with APFS CoW support, but that's not as good as something like qcow2.

3. No GUI support (for Linux, for macOS there's GUI support but I have no idea how it works).

4. Network support is limited. You can run NAT but then you can't communicate with host. You can run bridge, but I don't like this mode and didn't even try it. You can implement userspace networking completely by yourself, but that's a lot of work and I didn't try it either. But I think that if someone would want to build a virtualization frontend, he had to do it. Otherwise basic features like port mapping will not be available.

Now from what I read at this topic: ISO boot is coming, UEFI support is coming, Linux GUI support is coming. And I guess with enough tinkering it should be possible to run other BSDs, as they just leverage standard virtio protocols.

Also Windows virtualization theoretically should be possible. I mean it's just another UEFI OS. You would need to put virtio drivers, but Redhat wrote virtio drivers (for x86, but should be possible to compile for ARM).

I just wish that this virtualization framework was more extensible. Right now it's like use it or drop it. For example I didn't find any way to implement qcow2 support while using it for other things.

I have read some Marxist books and everytime I read their proposed solutions I shake my head. How can anyone be so misguided?

Of course, the reason why Marx is popular is that his criticism of capitalism is actually very close to the truth. Capitalists produce for the sake of profit. No profit means no production. Market economies try to optimize profits to 0%. Thus, capitalists will simply stop producing well before the market is being served. This is why farmers need subsidies from the government. They would try to keep a small fraction of the population under the threat of starvation to maintain high enough profits to justify private production. So poverty is actually considered a non problem. Anyone who has to go without their basic needs being met is there to increase profitability and justify further growth.

Now, one should ask oneself. If markets exist to eliminate profits where are these hyper competitive industries that threaten to eat up/shut down your corporation if your profit is too low? Why doesn't their profit shrink to zero as one would expect? As mentioned above, extortion is a very easy way to maintain high profits. No entirely voluntary economic transaction can compete with extortion in terms of profit. So any capitalist economy with too many products will actually get worse than if there was a slight shortage of products. This is because the entire economy will shift towards extortive industries. Every industry will adopt a certain amount nastiness to stay competitive. Industries will try to consolidate into monopolies because they allow a greater degree of extortion.

From the SRE vs DevOps definition I just read from the top of google -> this description sounds more like a regular DevOps role instead of SRE.

But IMHO, SRE is just a Google way of naming regular SystemAdmin DevOps role.

I see no difference. I did exactly the same tasks as an SRE and as a Senior DevOps.

Could anyone with 20+ years of experience explain why exactly we still distinguish those ?

SRE is supposed to be a superset of DevOps but how?
A wasted opportunity in my opinion means wasting a good weather window, not working out, or literally missing a chance to travel. There are times when I've felt missed side projects have been wasted opportunities, but I don't really worry about it much. When I get excited about a new tool or something, which happens rarely, then I'll code in my spare time.
Awesome hardware and I will get one. But interesting that with the slight price increase there has been zero progress in performance per $ since 2 years. Shows how far ahead the M1 was.

I think my case is definitely not a good example for a healthy work life balance, but going to tell it nonetheless, maybe someone finds themselves in this story.
Been coding 60+ hours per week for the last 9 years, usually do programming on both weekends.

I have a partner but no kids, have no idea how it would be possible if I had them.
Due to lack of free time and sport injuries my hobbies have mostly reduced to frequent travelling.
Since I travel I barely have any friends, so I don't spend any time with them.

I try to exercise regularly, exercise takes time but it pays off for my energy levels and decreases stress.

I have recently self-diagnosed myself with ADHD, sitting idle and just relaxing produces too much anxiety, so I have to jump back into doing things.
Another important thing for motivation is feeling that your work is meaningful and that you can influence the product. Being a cog in a big machine implementing what other hand down to me would have brought a feeling of helplessness.
Possibly they do configurations in phases, so the more unusual your request, the longer it will be before they're building a suitable batch.

Maybe they only do adaptive cruise models on Wednesday and wood trim on the third week of the month. Now to get both you have to wait a month and because the ship leaves in 2 weeks, now you have to wait for the next one.

Semiconductors are the same. Manufacturer lead times are, even in good times, long for many things because they don't hold stock to cover big orders. If you come along and order a million AD4242WTFBBQ-OMGXXX, one of dozens of variants of a chip, they don't have that boxed and ready. You'll have to wait until the fab is doing that variant again.

The problem now is that all the distributor stock that used to keep everyone going while the big orders were scheduled is gone, and the fabs are so slammed that the time to the next free slot is measured in years, not weeks. And that's if the fab is still making that jellybean part at all and hasn't switched to a higher-margin part.
Thankyou, I will check it out :-)
We appear to differ there, in that I believe ignorance deserves compassion.
(Even deliberate ignorance / anti-intellectualism).

You and I try not to be ignorant only because we were lucky enough to have the opportunities that gave us this view. And despite wilfully trying not to be ignorant in life, I still am.
People that strive for rationalism and knowledge are lucky to be able to want to.

People are unlucky/helpless in being ignorant, no matter how intentional their ignorance may be - I would make this case at every level - right from these abstract situations, down to the fundamental concept of free will / determinism.

Anyway, this comment is just me musing, I'm not trying to drag us both into a debate:)

Ask HN: Why isn't there any standard for machine readable CV's?
A lot of companies have their own form which need to be filled in by applicants. This makes the process quite cumbersome for potential new employees.
Why isn't there a standardized format for CV's? This could be anything from XML, JSON, YAML, CSV or some other text based format. This way the applicants don't have to fill in a news form every time and HR can just import the file into their system.

I've searched around a bit but there doesn't seem to be any solution similar to this.

> Been coding 60+ hours per week for the last 9 years, usually do programming on both weekends.

I did the same until I had kids. Now it's rare for me to even touch a computer at the weekend.

My side projects never took off, but they did help me to become the developer who I am today, so I don't consider them time wasted but at the same time I don't feel that I'm missing out now.
Others doing the same doesn't justify the practice. I am calling out Apple right now because this discussion is about Apple, not because I just want to blame Apple and give a pass to the others. What is this argument, is Apple now the 12 year old 'bad' kid in class who gets blamed for everything? Should I be considerate of its feelings?
Anyway, Google still allows alternative app stores on the platform like F-droid that is a major difference.

Since Apple has locked down the platform, they are the price setters: they decide for you that 30% is fair. Seems extortionate to me.
