There's been 1500+ commits since 2020 on the 'main' Kernel fork that has Rust support [0]. Many of them through collaboration and backs and forths of review (look at the PRs on the fork).

My understanding is that the `rust-next` branch represents what's ready for Linus to merge. So there's a whole lot that's not in there, which you're missing in your evaluation.

Last year a Kernel dev from Western Digital wrote an NVME driver in Rust [1] (look at slides 15 & 16) which I would consider to be qualified and knowledgeable.

I wouldn't measure the effort solely on what's been merged to mainline as there's been 6 merge windows from 6.1 to now. Many of those commits are laying the groundwork for the next few years.

What I've learned from debating this with people, online or offline, is that we apparently do not talk about the damage cats do to wildlife. The only people I've seen agreeing with me that cat ownership should be heavily restricted and limited to indoor cats is the hunters. Everyone else seem to be fine with cats killing birds, lizards and small mammals by the billions.

For the wind turbines, maybe paint or restrict them in areas with endangered birds, but just accept that every now and then they are going to cut a seagull in half.
>I don't really care how it works, just that I don't have to run Windows.

you don't have to care, but pretending you're not beholden to Windows and how it decides to develop its future versions is exactly my point. Microsoft isn't making Windows 12 or maybe even Windows Cloud 2035 with WINE compatibility in mind. It's a ticking time bomb and I hope Linux gamers have a contingency plan if/when the bomb goes off.
Perkeep is friggin cool. The idea is great.

Appropriately.
I hear you and it has been an issue years ago but gradually Erlang's maintainers have been making error messages (and return error values) better and more readable and at this point I can't remember when was the last time when an Erlang return value and stack trace have impeded me.

So you were correct some years ago but I am not seeing this nowadays. So yeah, valid criticism, at the same time this criticism has been mostly taken to heart and addressed as of today.
I think the real issue is phone based account recovery rather than 2FA. It effectively turns 2FA into 1FA.
One could argue that fragmentation is a sign of more active development and a cause for excitement. Of course, it comes with less stability/maturity, but it means that everyone is empowered to do their own thing.

I can find identical twins joined at the hip today, too .. that does not mean it is prevalent or even important to note in every example
I mean that in my neck of the woods, when people say someone is bigoted or is a bigot, it isn’t always about racism, but it’s almost always aggressive.

If I said “oh he’s a keyboard bigot” in this context, I would be attempting to be insulting and harmful towards you.

If you said “oh I’m just a keyboard bigot” it comes off as lighter but my context has me tilting my head in curiosity. It wouldn’t have been a word I’d expect someone to call themselves.

I’d sooner expect “keyboardphile” “keyboard zealot” “keyboard maniac”

Again, language is weirdly varied like that. I’m not suggesting any of this is some universal rule.

My 2¢: if they really wanted to light up adoption, release a TypeScript compiler. I don't mean to JavaScript but TS to CLR. C# is already so close to TypeScript. And the TS ecosystem and mindshare is huge
Authy solves this by putting all the TOTP keys behind a master password and then backing it up online, so you can get up and running on a different device quickly. It's the same trade-off as a password manager, where your eggs are all in one basket but hopefully it's a secure basket.
As an aside, Elixir is doing some interesting, novel stuff exploring its own type system. José Valim's keynote at ElixirConf last week went into detail on the topic, so I'd keep an eye out for it on YouTube in the coming weeks if that sort of thing interests you.
This hasn't been true for many years now, but that legacy persists in the popular consciousness.
Honestly, every time I get on TikTok, it degenerates into thirst traps and OF adverts. I explicitly block these creators and never click like in any of these themes, but the algorithm thinks I want to see that stuff no matter how much I try to tell it that I don’t.

I would think his point is, that the number of bird deaths are simply neglectible compared to what for example house cats do (or windows). So no need for much further research, that could be spend better elsewhere.

They don't need to be because they describe totally different phenomena.

In which way are they describing different phenomena? They both describe the evolution of the wave function, the Schrödinger equation while everyone is leaving the system alone, wave function collapse at those special moments when somebody is looking at the system, performing one of those mysterious measurements.

Without explaining more precisely when I should use unitary evolution and when I should collapse the wave function, the Schrödinger equation together with wave function collapse are at the very least an incomplete and maybe even an inconsistent theory.

Itaconate Shunt Hypothesis is currently being focused on by Robert Phair and Christopher Armstrong in collaboration with Professor Ron Davis's team at Stanford.

We have all experienced our Itaconate Shunt pathway being switched on at some point because it is the tiredness feeling of coming down with a flu or bug.

The body switches over to amino acids for fuel instead of fat and sugars.
You run out of amino acids to burn, quickly, and feel the need to lay down and rest.

You cancel that marathon you were about to run, and you even have to give up on walking to the shop for groceries.

Itaconate Shunt Hypothesis (PART 1)
https://youtu.be/RiVDNhg4l48?t=1816

A metabolic trap could mean people with Chronic Fatigue Syndromes never switch the Itaconate Shunt mechanism off.
Or enough cells in their body stay shunted for many years, reducing their daily physical activity and mental concentration levels well below normal functional expectations.
It's much better from my experience.
Then we can calculate a literal cost per impression, and the unit is birds.
You can set net.core.wmem_default, though that's a system-wide setting you have to override. And then you can end up with large message queues instead, if you have a lot of small messages (which is a concern in the embedded systems I work on). The problem is really the large overhead of the messages, of close to a kilobyte per message. TCP sockets have just a fraction of the overhead.
No, I'm not. Your ratio is correct for the current numbers for coal/wind; the article is using 2009 numbers for bird deaths. If we want to fairly scale those numbers, we can't do (bird deaths from wind in 2009) / (wind power gen in 2022) or we end up with more nonsense.

In 2009, wind power gen was ~275 TWh, coal was 7817 TWh.[1] There's roughly a 30x difference between those.

> Firefox?

Yup. https://hg.mozilla.org/releases/mozilla-release/rev/e245ca21...
YES! Compared to a simple IRC server+client or XMPP definitively.
Just to put that in perspective, that's like 400 holocausts every single year. Abhorrent.
It might be helpful to consider the Firefox situation, too. That is also a relatively large, established, and actively-developed software system that began to include some Rust code later on in its existence.

If I'm not mistaken, the first stable Firefox releases including notable usage of Rust code came out in late 2017. So that's about 6 years of Rust in Firefox.

From a Firefox user's perspective, I can't say that I'm impressed by it.

Building Firefox from source is more involved than it was before. As you mentioned, additional tooling for Rust is required in such a situation.

I haven't really noticed any real Firefox feature, functionality, or performance improvements that I could directly attribute to the use of Rust.

It also doesn't seem like using Rust has allowed the Firefox developers to be significantly more efficient or productive than they were before.

Maybe an argument could be made that some security issues, for example, have been avoided thanks to Rust, but that's not really provable in any meaningful way.

After seeing the Firefox situation, my expectations for the use of Rust in the Linux kernel are pretty low.
Thanks for commenting, I have no reason to not believe you so please take my comment as constructive =)

For context, phrases like "We'll take a look at" are what typically lead me to lean towards AI being part of the mix. There are other things about the article that did that too but they may be related to you working in a non-native language.
They don't even want to make iPad a computer replacement. Half of the models have a M-class chip powering them.
So did they create particles or just simulate the creation of particles on a quantum computer?

> Some physicists consider these efforts simulations, because the qubits inside the processor are abstractions of particles (while their physical nature varies from lab to lab, you can visualize them as particles spinning around an axis). But the quantum nature of the qubits is real, so — simulations or not — the processors have become playgrounds for topological experiments.

So far (AFAIU) anything that can be simulated on a qc can also be simulated (much more easily) on a classical computer. Did the simulation leverage specific quantum properties of the qubits in a way that resulted in a genuinely never-seen-before physical system, or did they just simulate it on a qc for the heck of it?

Guess I'll wait for the Scott Aaronson writeup.

Edit: feeling kinda bad to give the stereotypical skeptical/dismissive comment, so I want to stress that I legitimately don't understand a lot of what is actually happening here. Maybe it's way cooler than I'm making it out to be.
"Moral" is the wrong word when you consider:

-a big reason people immigrate to the US is because the US destabilized their home country in the first place
-America systematically ensures the poor are incapable of improving their condition
Both sides have pros and cons

But for some reasons ppl that argue for fragmentation under umbrella of innovation never talk about sane experience, especially for newbies
This is nonsense. Companies may be saying that because it’s the official line but they simply don’t have the power to force the people they need back to the office. Workers aren’t going for it and companies who offer remote now have a competitive advantage in the labor market. Companies have been pushing for RTO but unwillling to let talented engineers who work remote go, because they are important and have a large reserve of domain knowledge. When those talented engineers begin looking for work again, what do you think they’ll prioritize? Flexibility and remote work. In-person work may have a resurgence for a little bit but over time it will erode and eventually remote work will be the norm.
The post reads fine, I don't understand why others think it's AI generated.

Impressionable students believe they can go to college, do little to no work actually comprehending the material they’re going to be using in their field of choice, and then go all “shocked pikachu” when they graduate and are unemployable.

It’s not a college problem. It’s a student problem. They believe just because they have a degree that they’re entitled to high paying jobs when a degree isn’t that special anymore.
C# is one of the best designed languages that I've had the pleasure to use.
Is it me or is there a bug with pointers on the bottom of http://www.pjhutchison.org/tutorial/pointers.html?

The author uses this code to dereference a pointer to a structure member:

engine = *myvehicle->enginesize;

Unless I've forgotten 30 years of C experience, I'd expect this to be:

engine = myvehicle->enginesize;

But it could be some peculiarity in the Amiga compiler.

Now I just wish I had the money to buy an Amiga when I was a kid :-)
How long until they are covered in LED strips that are programmed to light up with advertisements while the blades are spinning?

What are you talking about? You know nothing about me. You can't 'win' the discussion so you move what you think are personal insults. Do better.
It's also a far more complex format than JPEG, and complexity almost directly correlates with defect density.

That said, I also blame the culture of making code more complex than necessary, along with developers who barely understand the details.
Even for a web service, imagine a small feature is causing the app to crash to OOM, or too many file handles or something that will take out the whole process and not just the one request.

If you have long running requests (something beside small rest calls like large data transfers) then any being served by that same process are taken down.
You should use the best tool for the job, and if that's dotnet go for it. That said, it would be difficult to hire strong engineers, across all experience levels. Your team would probably skew older and have outdated engineering practices.

>An iPhone that’s able to project something more like iPadOS (or, ideally, but not definitely wishful thinking on my part — macOS) when connected to a screen could easily replace a laptop for probably a significant portion of the population, including for casual computing, and for the work tasks of the bulk of the knowledge workforce.

No, it wouldn't, because you'd need a display and input device(s) at your destination. So then we ended up with these laptop-style shells for Android and Windows Phone devices that supported this model and suddenly you can't use your phone separately while you're in laptop mode. It's easier to just bring a laptop/Chromebook with you.

There's no need for the device's local storage when you're already syncing important documents to the cloud anyway. This is a "cool" solution in search of a problem.
The point is that efforts to curb wind power due to the threat to birds is irrational if you aren't bothered about the threat from domestic cats.
Those are probably not the same birds.
>>If the proposed alternative to these turbines is not austerity but coal-fired power

Nobody wants that, but gas or nuclear could be a good alternative.
Have only the recent Android phones been patched, or also 3—4+ year old phones as well?
That's not a bad summary for AI, but it is very funny that every step of the way gets the adjective "modern".

My own personal outsider take on this is that there are really only three eras that need to be considered:

- "HWND era": win16/win32 classic UI aka "WinForms". This extends all the way up to ActiveX. Microsoft get to dictate the platform without real competition.

- XAML era: the second system. Classic WinForms doesn't handle high-DPI displays or GPU rendering; it relies on pixel positioning and lets you draw directly on the framebuffer. WPF is the reaction to this.

- Phone era: suddenly there is real competition and users start using a lot of non-Microsoft platforms. Microsoft launch their own phone, complete with new sandboxed APIs that don't correspond to Win32 at all. This is ultimately a market failure. But Microsoft have invested too much in UWP.

At this point, the winning stacks globally are, in order: web (including Electron), iOS, Android. Nobody wants to do native Windows applications that aren't games if they can possibly help it. Even Microsoft start building web-on-desktop apps like Teams.

So the only thing Microsoft can do is salvage operations on UWP APIs and XAML-related techs to try to make it usable to desktop developers by getting out of the sandbox.
If we live in a simulated universe, "phenomena causing particles to exist" would be a process driven by whatever is running the simulation. It would "feel" objective to us inside the simulation, but theoretically zooming out a bit would show that our "objective" simulation is actually subjectively based on whatever parameters the simulation computer imposes.

In this instance, I argue that the computer we exist on is real as it is imposing laws we are subject to. There's no way to prove it isn't a Russian Nesting Doll where it's simulations all the way down (and up), but if we can't leave our reality to check out the one above us, this is more the realm of philosophy than physics.

In a non-simulated universe, the laws of physics as we experience them are imposed by something. Whether that something is just our frame of reference as a collective species trapped in a single area of spacetime or the grand unifying theory we keep searching for, there is some objective measure which regulates physics. Maybe if we find it, we can find how to make it subjective and abuse physics like a speedrunner does in a video game.
(As of now) You’re being downvoted by people who don’t leave enough following room on the highway. This is however the correct answer. Collisions need to be avoided by assuming others will do stupid things. Because they will.

Definitely a bit worrying, since this is practically the first real test that someone can perform and feel when picking up a prototype.

If by fair you mean the same cost to produce on the same process node, then an Arm V class core should be the same as an AMD compact core, roughly. The Arm N cores are a lot smaller, closer to Intel's E cores. Full sized Intel P cores or AMD's non-C Ryzens are closer to an Apple M core.

One random concrete example I found while playing with Hotwire is that if you need a full PWA, it's much easier than in LiveView. With Hotwire it JustWorks(tm) while with LiveView it's a giant pain as you have to double up events with controller actions (which is terrible). If you don't need this, though, which many don't, LiveView is cognitively easier simpler its DOM-diffing as opposed to Hotwire's frame-targeting mechanism. To be crystal clear, I'm not saying that targeting frames is hard, just that's it's even easier not have to have to do it at all.
I recently launched a startup, we use Java, some Python and even a little bit of Rust. For web we also use plain Javascript. We will most likely add some GoLang and C/C++ for specific problems we need to solve in the future.

But using C# .Net? It's completely irrelevant, it adds absolutely nothing. The performance is similar to Java. The syntax is similar to Java. But the eco-system is one of the smallest of all the big programming languages. And most of the documentation/blog posts about C# is heavily Windows focused, and we run only on Linux.
The only reason I think of why I should use C# is when we need a Windows-based desktop application. But I think Java+JavaFX will be just as good and will also work great on MacOS and Linux desktop.
Thank you!

It is not presented as a dilemma, but as a perspective: The numbers reported are tiny compared to other well-accepted causes of avian deaths. In other words, the numbers lack a good scale for comparison.

Minimizing the issue would definitely be positive, but is also largely inconsequential in the big picture, and if such measures slow adoption it would even be harmful as pollution is an indirect cause of avian death.
Your mileage may vary but my opinion: Because its controlled by Microsoft. ASP.NET Core brings everything necessary to develop a web application, from an ORM, to a web server, to a router, to an HTML templating language, to a client-side SPA framework. All components are designed to work together and have high quality documentation.

That makes it easier to get started than say Python where you have to depend on multiple third party libraries with different support cycles, API styles, or even async programming models (e.g. gevent vs async/await in Python). And you can still swap components out if needed.

Not saying Rust or Python etc. are bad for writing startup software. Given the ecosystems I personally find it faster to get started with .NET because of the reasons above.
I wish more people understood how horrible advertising truly is.

Your life is essentially a compilation of what captures your attention. Embracing this perspective, any entity auctioning off your attention to the highest bidder is trading away a part of your life.

People don't understand what this means. They also don't understand how cynical this is in the context of a search engine. I don't have a solution to this, but man, its horrible.
