Last time I checked [1], the Rust part of the Rust compiler is not the slowest. LLVM spends a lot of time processing relatively poor IR code which the Rust compiler emits.

Rust compilation is not intrinsically slow; better IR and more incremental compilation can and will improve it. Incremental compilation (only changed files, not crates) is 7 years in making though.

I know there's scalable bloom filters, but are there any alternative data structure like bloom/cuckoo filters that allows for dynamic growth of inserted elements?
Ie, I would like to add hundreds of new elements every day and let the filter grow it's capacity automagically.
No, it does not.

The Kernel and say Chromium, don't use crates.io. They (will) vendor what they need, which they can update when they need to and when they've reviewed the dependencies.

Wannacry used the exploit from EternalBlue to create one of the most famous ransomware worms in recent memory, and wasn't the only malware to leverage that one exploit:

Despite lots and lots of POCs, I haven't seen attackers use spectre in the wild yet. Maybe sophisticated actors are using it but they haven't been caught yet, or more likely they just use more traditional and reliable ways to get info leaks. But if traditional info leaks dwindle, they may turn to speculative execution attacks.
I can attest to this. Furthermore, teams of two make it more difficult to check out of a shared problem and allow the other team members to do the work, thus it improves the overall performance.

Focus on Mac could be so much better, but sadly like file tags, it remains half-baked.

I'd love to be able to set, say a "Programming" Focus, and have everything else disappear: All my desktop spaces would change, including their wallpapers (replaced by the Matrix green rain) and only the apps that I allowed would be visible, and even the files/folders and websites which I didn't include in that Focus should not be accessible (from the GUI or Terminal at least).

Basically it should be sort of like logging into a different user account, without logging into a different user account (i.e. keeping all your data and state, just temporarily filtering it).

In fact I think all operating systems should adopt the notion of a "focus" as a fundamental sub-level under the user account: Bob may have a social networking focus, office focus, or no focus, and so on.
I never felt like Docker is too enterprisey. On Linux, it’s pretty easy to ignore all that stuff. I guess on other OSes not so much, due to Docker Desktop.

Yep, actually enjoying the lack of notifications right now.

Though for my closest friends and family we still have Signal as backup.
Personally I quite like the settings change, perhaps I didn't spend enough time with the old one but it felt rather clunky/disorganised to me. Whereas now they're roughly approximate between devices there's less for me to remember. I'd agree no one expects a computer to work the same as a phone/tablet, however when it comes to such basic things as settings having the same interface and syncing things where it makes sense is a positive for me
All that is fair. It's just, maybe a bit early? I don't usually say this, but I would've appreciated if it came a little later.

All I really want is to be able to compile my stuff without waiting overnight (or more).
Yes, but I was expecting the new one to have a responsive design. Wasn't it rewritten from scratch using iOS-like tech or something?
I like the Office app where you have Word, Excel, and PowerPoint in one program. But still you need to open files in different windows/tabs. Is it possible to make files open in the same window/tab? So that you can work on two different files without any borders. This will be very close to real-world experience where you don't have any windows/borders to work on two different papers. What if we make a file itself as a window?

Yeah, without procedural generation, it becomes just like any other game where you just have to learn the right path to take. Because these are very hard games where you're most likely never going to see the end, the start already needs to be interesting and different every time.

Yep. I host my own server and have it federated. That part was simple.

It's the normies at large who dictate comms platforms really. Things like matching emoji support and easy + performant video and picture sharing are absolutely crucial.
I work for startup, finishing third year. I joined in quite early stage. Every year I received a package of options that vest 25% every year for 4 years. So the company still expects me to stay for next 4 years. Is 3 years long term employment? For me yes, I used to switch every ~4-5 years, and my current company does a lot to make us stay for longer.
Weird, I do not see cost-benefit analysis in OP, which I am missing. OP discards the obscured hostname measure claiming it takes "more work than it takes to actually secure your site".

To me this reads as there is some inherently secure approach and then this obscure approach, slightly increasing security. I cannot agree with such assessment.
I've been using this at work, sharing with my colleagues, and integrating this into our default CI/CD environment. It's awesome and has taken away the thought of "how do I install version XYZ of tool ABC here?" entirely. Just asdf what I need, done. Huge productivity boost.

is "roguelike" going back to its intuitive meaning of "similar to the game rogue" or is it still the new meaning of basically any game with procedure level generation.

> Is this example running a non-wasm webserver that then proxies to WASM modules? Is that wasmedge? Or does wasmedge really make syscalls like accept() available to the module?

> If it's the latter, how could it actually do something meaningful without threading - given any accept() would block the whole module? Run in non-blocking mode and expect the whole WASM module to be written in async style?

The docs here show how it works: https://wasmedge.org/book/en/write_wasm/rust/networking.html
None of the games you listed are roguelikes. I think the most popular roguelike of the past decade is Pixel Dungeon and it remains fairly niche.

They are all games with procedural generation or elements of randomness which have absolutely nothing to do with the gameplay loop of Rogue.

At some point people called them roguelites but I don’t think it makes much sense.

Thank you for the links. From [0]:

The first two mission chains in England involve replacing the ‘bad guy’ anti-pagan king of Mercia with a good guy reasonable king Ceolwulf (and his good guy reasonable son) and rescuing the Dane-ruled settlement of Grantebridge where, I kid you not, we are told that this settlement was just a tiny village when the Danes moved in and built it up into a big, multi-cultural trading town and all of the local English folks are just totally OK with this and it is just the mean nasty Saxon army (led by a bad guy member of an evil conspiracy) who are ruining everything. Apparently all of the Danish vikings only really came by for infrastructure week.

This problem is infinitely compounded by the way the game treats, or more correctly does not treat, the Norse practice of slavery.

This, for me, is a much bigger - history-wise - problem than a color of pigs.
whatsapp still down in india
Yeah, but it's not considered bad etiquette to give in to WhatsApp's nagging to send your complete contacts so they can build their fscking social graph, thereby grossly violating EU GDPR in that phone numbers are personally identifiable information? And yes, it's you who's violating that law by handing out PII others shared with you under an implied assumption of confidentiality unless you've written consent by everybody stored in your contacts.

Actually this study is consistent with several studies done in rats, but I do not remember now the links.

In the studies done in rats, the purpose was to determine whether a high-fat diet causes or prevents atherosclerosis.

In rats, the worst outcome was caused by a diet high in saturated fat and much better outcomes were caused by a diet enriched in oleic acid, e.g. by using high-oleic sunflower oil.

However, the extra-virgin olive oil had an additional protective effect against atherosclerosis, in comparison with the other vegetable oils with a similar fatty acid profile.

So the conclusion is that EVOO includes some unidentified substance, perhaps a phenolic compound, which is good for cardiovascular health.

This, together with the fact that the olive oil has an optimal fatty acid profile with high content of oleic acid and with enough linoleic acid, makes it a very good choice for the main source of fat in the food.
Not on my laptop it wasn't. I wonder if someone's done a performance comparison.

> A "senior" engineer who has moved 5 times in 10 years staying less than 2 years in any company has five times the experience of a junior engineer.

This doesn't make sense, new jobs don't reset your level. There's a difference between the responsibilities you get in your first year as a junior and the first year at a new company as an experienced hire.
Could you expand on why people shouldn't compile their kernel?
I think it's fairly useful to compile their own to get a better understanding of what the kernel does and to better suit everyone's needs. For example, if I have little free space on my boot partition and I have my disk encrypted, I want my kernel to be as small as possibile, so I will deselect every driver I don't need. Or maybe the driver for my new device is not included in the kernel builds of my distribution.

Not only I woundn't say that most people shouldn't compile their kernel, I would say that most linux users* should do it at least once, so they can understand the power they have compared to closed-source operaring systems.

*with linux users I mean users that use linux as their main operating system, not people that do ssh once in a while or rarely boots their linux partition

I use dmcrypt with luks since ~2011. This was not common when I was starting to use this, but being part of Arch Linux community helps a lot. Especially back in the time everyone was eager to share opinions and how-to hints...

That's outdated information from 2016. Now Nim uses ARC/ORC. ARC implements memory management at compile time like Rust and it's still very fast at compiling.

An Introduction to Datalog in Flix
Flix is an exciting new programming language which provides the power of strongly typed functional programming with the accessibility of “programmer friendly” languages like Go, Rust, or Ruby.

This article isn’t about Flix, though, it’s about Datalog, and the reason why Flix plus Datalog creates something greater than the sum of its parts.

Part of the brainstorming method with a room full of people is to extract insights that should have already have been gathered in research.

It lessens the likelihood that the wrong person is left to solve the problem by themselves because you have the input from others too. Even if they are the person who eventually carries selected idea through to implementation at least they’ve been exposed to insights and conversations from other ‘stakeholders’.

Often consultancies will involve more people (e.g. the customer) in the idea generation activity to bring them along on the journey. Brainstorms can definitely be done badly but also managed well by experienced facilitators.
Global communication protocols and interfaces should be left to the ISPs, just like email and NNTP etc. used to be, and DNS still is.

Really, why can't everything be like DNS? You ask the nearest available authority about something, and that in turn asks the next nearest authority, until that shit is found. Would work for web search too.

When you need a pretty UI just put different client apps on top of it, just like we did/do for email and newsgroups.

While it's true that memory safety has been done in a lot of languages for a long time this overstates the point. Doing memory safety at compile time is an important change that allows replacing C/C++ in a lot more situations. In the benchmarks game for example Rust has been the only language capable of breaking into the C/C++ league, even after very many years of investment into Java for example.

Rust also uses the same mechanisms to get compile time thread safety with full memory sharing between threads. Does any other language that doesn't have a global lock, throwing away most of the advantage, have that? There are actual new and interesting advantages to the compile time ownership model.
So you're saying that there's two different genres of games that happen to share the same name? A bit like "hard core" music, I guess. Except "hard core" has a meaning outside those genres, whereas "roguelike" explicitly refers to the first game of one of those genres, and I don't think the other genre ever had a game by that name that defined it. So it's basically just trading on the name of another genre.
I like Cathy O'Neil's work. I wish I'd read more of her before

Also, if you can distance yourself from the visual changes, you'll notice there are far more customization than there have ever been.

The fact that I can remap caps lock more easily than on a Linux machine, for example, blows my mind. Window tiling also works out of the box with 3rd party apps. Meanwhile, Ubuntu switching to GNOME broke Compiz settings that many used for those features.
