1. If you want the solution of IPv4 packets being a subset of the address space of IPv6, your options are rather limited in regards to tampering with the original packet. IPv4 hosts can't deal with the larger addresses of any IPv6 hosts they're talking to.

2. Of course there's no immediate benefit for IPv4 clients - there isn't in your proposal either! It's a compatibility measure, allowing IPv6-only clients to talk to IPv4 servers. (I make that distinction because under no scheme can an IPv4 host initiate a connection to a host with no IPv4 address.)

3. I have no idea what you're talking about with the idea that NAT64 requires IPv4 clients to talk to each other over an IPv6 subsegment. I suspect you're thinking of a different transition technology solving a different problem. NAT64 provides a virtual IPv6 subnet containing the entire IPv4 address space. IPv6 clients can send packets to this subnet, at which point they are routed to the nearest NATting gateway and passed into the v4 internet after packet rewriting.

4. FTP and SIP containing IP literals is an irreducible incompatibility, which cannot accommodate an address size change without intrusive packet rewriting anyway.
didn't google all-but-abandon Fuchsia's development (and thus Zircon)?

There was a bunch of lay-offs in January, in July they announced the smart speakers would not use it, and AFAIU the only product using it (the Nest Hub) is supposed to be replaced by the Pixel Tablet.
Cygwin64? Im using it all the time on Windows 10.
Without it I would be huge pain to use Windows at all.
Pretty much everything works fine over cygwin64, I didnt yet find
a tool that has problems. And I like that its just cygwin.dll providing
basic POSIX layer, everything else its just windows (networking, FS, ...)
Yeah, it's true that raw performance doesn't seem like a major priority for the Godot community. If it was, GDScript probably wouldn't be the default language. There also seems to be a lot of defensiveness around GDScript's weaknesses.

Personally, I found that signals were very slow for communicating node to node, was dropping information because it could take longer than a frame.

During the beta the 16 AirTag limit was still enforced with every shared AirTag counting towards it (and individual AirPods as well).

I’m glad to see that they’ve seemed to upped the limit or don’t count the shared AirTags against that limit anymore.

16 seems like a lot, but if you’re traveling with a couple of items you want to track and share with your party as backup, you start hitting it pretty fast.

One thing I found useful is setting up a VPN docker container and reverse proxying only the things that I need through the VPN.
Massive over hiring and random acquisitions are there main reasons why are they here. If they hadn't increased their headcount by 5k and continued focusing on their core products the company would already be profitable (even if revenue would be lower).

At this point it's too late to significantly cut costs, so yeah seems like they pushed themselves into a corner.

The sad part is that it was already perfectly obvious where were they heading after they IPO'ed.
In France we have a fair amount of bureaucracy too.
But a least the government is trying to digitalize a bit now. Taxes are quite easy, healthcare is ok, some documents like car registration too.
But we have a long way to go for all the local weird processes (from Region, Departementn and cities)
In Berlin you can usually book a same day appointment for some city services including registration in the morning at 8:00-8:05, when they release few more slots. Sometimes you may need to go somewhere like Alt Tegel quickly, but that worked for me several times.
This is cool! Note that this problem is fairly specific to Berlin (and probably some other places in Germany). I just moved to Heidelberg, and this city offers registration appointments both via video chat as well as in-person, with slots available next day.

I think its important for people to also spread the idea that "this is known to not be correct". Bad mental models continue to proliferate for generations (bad here not being a value judgement but rather of their known incorrectness and lack of predictive power).

It's like when you tell people that the alpha/beta dynamic amongst wolves came from one flawed study that has not been replicated and shown to be false many many years ago now. Same with "learning styles" research. Its difficult to approach the subject in a way that doesn't cause people to get defensive sometimes - they like the simplistic model which may once have been a fine point for a beginner but they got stuck in it and it can impair their growth and understanding.

It's fine for a layperson to walk around believing whatever they like - its likely closer to the truth than whatever they might otherwise have thought, or at least got them thinking. It becomes a problem when people actually base decisions off these things.
There are no "safe" languages. Fast managed languages JIT compile your code to the same unsafe machine code as C, and JITs frequently have exploitable bugs. Most (all?) of the techniques which help mitigate safety bugs in "unsafe" languages also help or can be used to help mitigate safety bugs in JITs. And then there's all the standard library functions implemented in "unsafe" languages.

Then there's Rust, which doesn't even claim to be a safe language. It claims to (and does a good job at!) containing the unsafety to certain parts of the code, which is nice but there's still a whole lot of code that's marked unsafe which benefits from these mitigations.
As someone that haven’t ever been to Germany or interacted with any German government, but works with different governments a lot, it has really become apparent that Germans love telling the rest of the world how bad their bureaucracy is, then go on to describe something that sounds entirely common. It’s like New Yorkers telling you how good and unique bodegas are, and it turns out they either grew up in New York City or some one-traffic-light town and just haven’t had any worldly exposure.

Your personal anecdote as another commenter pointed out says much more about your lack of consulting and general workplace experience than it does about German bureaucracy. It all sounds very typical and again what I’d expect as someone that can count on one hand the number of people in Germany I’ve talked to professionally.

Kelley and Cro argue that bounties foster competition at the expense of cooperation. But isn’t it through competition that we Escape Big Tech’s clutches? Without competition, we’d all be slaves to the monopoly of Big Tech, a corporate monolith driven by surveillance capitalism. Competition brings innovation and diversity, giving each of us the tools to fight against centralized power. Bounties create an environment where developers are incentivized to solve problems creatively and help users Escape Big Tech through faster development and better solutions. Cooperation and competition can coexist. In fact, they must coexist if we are to Escape Big Tech. The FOSS community is not a utopia; it’s a battleground. And in a battle, we need all the weapons we can get. Bounties are one of those weapons.
The FOSS space thrives when there is a race—not just against time, but against mediocrity. Bounties create an environment where developers are incentivized to push their boundaries, leading to faster development cycles and better software solutions. To argue against this is to undermine the essence of free-market capitalism, a realm devoid of governmental intrusion and packed with individual liberties.

But also, one aspect largely absent from the original blog post is the financial sustainability of being an open source developer. While the love for the craft and the mission to Escape Big Tech might be enough to fuel initial enthusiasm, the reality is that developers need to eat, pay bills, and sustain their lives. If someone aspires to be an open source developer as a primary occupation, financial backing becomes non-negotiable.
Bounties, donations, and sponsorships serve this very purpose—they are not just incentives for competition, but also a means for livelihood. Rejecting these financial channels out of an idealistic vision of cooperation is not just impractical but dismissive of the economic pressures that developers face.
Let’s not forget, FOSS is an open market where both ideas and resources should flow freely. Monetary incentives can co-exist with the altruistic goals of the community. It’s a balancing act, but one that serves both the ideological and material needs of the FOSS world. For those of us aiming to Escape Big Tech, these financial pathways are not just welcome; they are essential.
The trick is to look for appointments early in the morning. People who think they won't be able to make it to the appointment that day cancel theirs and there's a bunch of openings every morning.
I don't think it would work. Linux uses internal string functions while _FORTIFY_SOURCE works with help from glibc, plus PIE is just not an appropriate memory model for kernel code.
That seems more like an abbreviation, like English titles such as “Mr.” and “Mrs.”?
Between this and Opera GX's twitter, I guess they are going 200% in on memes. Maybe it's a valid strategy to give up on seriousness if you can't tackle mainstream competition head on...

I am not saying this to throw shade, it might legitimately be a good idea. Of course, attack surface, spyware, blah blah, but users don't care about that, sadly. Someone might install it just because it's le funny browser.

I'm expecting Opera's logo to change to doge any day now.
I‘ve heard from a local that in the onset of the bork beetle infestation, it was decided not to intervene (leaving dead trees there). This contributed to the catastrophe. Not sure if this is true.
In other words, game engines are frameworks. Porting from Unity to Unreal may feel like porting from Rails to Django: not an impossible task, and you can keep some key bits, but you have to rewrite and rethink a lot. (Ruby and Python are even closer than C# and C++.)

With the ISDN (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrated_Services_Digital_Ne...) network, Germany had the most advanced digital switching infrastructure in the world. It offered two 64kbit/s lines into every household, and that in the 80s. Unfortunately, due to political decisions that were highly influenced by Leo Kirch and his commercial TV provider (Premiere), Germany's public telecoms infrastructure was a) privaticed into Deutsche Telekom and b) shifted to put copper TV cable into every household instead of fiber.

In east Germany, after reunification in the 1990s, Deutsche Telekom started to introduce a fiber into every home (OPAL - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optische_Anschlussleitung) but then they shifted their focus to DSL and reusing the old copper wires for telephone lines and abandoned this. No, not only abandoned. They opened up the streets again to lay new copper wire.

Now, fiber to the home is back on the table.
Crawling can be done collaboratively, but there's not a lot of point to doing this. Crawling is the cheap and easy part.

As for the rest, in order to perform well, the indexer needs to be built specifically tailored to the what the search engine is doing. Often you're scrounging for places to cram in individual bits to encode some additional piece of information about the term.

If a DBMS tries to support every use case, a search engine index does the opposite, it supports a singular use case and cuts every corner imaginable and then some to make that happen with as much resource frugality as possible.
When I receive emails from @name I usually open my response with "Dear $name[0]" but I know better than to do that with Asian-sounding names.

However, I never knew exactly what to do instead, so I've always chickened out and went with the full "Dear @name" in the same order that I was given the names.

I hoped this would enlighten me as to the appropriate way to go, but I clearly overestimated the homogeneity of Asian name conventions!
Its easy to drift into lamenting how the vision of the original free software movement was lost. This would be missing the growing forest (the widespread adoption of open and collaborative modes of software production) for a singular tree (a specific ideology about the role of computing).

What has been happening in these four decades is that ever more segments of society (whether individuals or private enterprise or public sector) got into this mode of using and developing a shared resource (a common good). This is just an unprecedented positive development that gets lost among the avalanche of bad news. I can't think of anything remotely comparable in any other domain. We need to celebrate this more.

Now, of-course when something succeeds to grow beyond childhood it may evolve beyond recognition. A mass adopted religion might be quite different from the original prophet's visionary preaching. It may split into lots of heresies. These heresies might become more popular than the "orthodoxy". There is simply no way to avoid money and politics when something becomes mainstream.

Imho, the challenge today is not to rekindle some pure and true faith but have leaders of equal clarity of vision and purpose that will champion the underlying cause in new and specific contexts that are becoming relevant as the movement expands. The corporate world outside big tech is still largely absent from open source. Digital public goods from public entities still nascent even though they are extremely congruent with the philosophy.

I'm not saying that they make money because of Physics Ph.D.s. I'm saying it would be kind of useless to hire those specific people only to end up doing insider trades the whole time.

The title of the page is a "basic guide". Not a "comprehensive guide".

I think it is fair to say that without the GPL and GNU, there would have been no Linux as we know it today.
Had an audible chuckle the other day when I saw humble bundle's current massive Godot sale. Hopefully with this increased attention we can draw new programmers to gamedev with an approachable language like python.
I think the spanner in the works is that the CD-ROM bundles an MS Access runtime executable that is 16-bit and therefore will not run on 64-bit Windows. If you look in the top left of the window in the screenshot, the icon looks like Access 2.0, which was designed for 16-bit Windows.

Given, as you say, Microsoft's commitment to backwards compatibility, it is very likely in my opinion that a modern computer running 32-bit Windows 10 (not Windows 11, as they dropped the 32-bit version and therefore finally dropped 16-bit software support entirely) would run this software fine. It is also likely, as you say, that modern Access could import the underlying database (does Access 2023/365/whatever import Access 2.0 databases? Who knows! Not I, I don't touch the stuff ;)

There are multiple factors that go into this.

Main one on release day being load balancing on the servers.

It also doesn’t help that major releases are typically done by downloading the full image instead of your typical delta update.

Add onto that the process where it creates a compressed backup of your current version for rollback purposes and the verification process to check that your download didn’t end up corrupted and it’ll keep your iPhone busy for a while.
Yes, as a non-European expat moving to Denmark in 2017, my experience was eye-opening.

I needed one physical visit to the International affairs section of the citizens service(Borger service), where they took my biometrics, and issued me a CPR number(a national Id equivalent I that of social security number in the US, or Aadhaar ID in India), and another set of codes called Nem-Id which serves as a second factor authentication for all things online.
That’s it.

I could go online, login with my CPR number, and use the Nem-ID as the second factor auth, and register my address, bank account, immigration details, driving license etc.

Need a bank account?
Open one by using the CPR number and second factor auth using Nem-ID.

Same goes for phone connection, internet at home, whatever else.

Need holidays?
Paid for by the government, and I login using my CPR number ti check my state of holidays. Independent of my employer.

Childcare benefit?
Apply using the CPR number online.

Need to find a daycare(Vuggestue) for your kid? No need, login with the kid’s cpr number and apply, and you get assigned to one of the neighborhood ones.

I move to a different address within Denmark? Change the address in that borgerservice portal, and that’s it. Even my internet provider sends a bill to the new address automatically.

End of the year, I get a tax report from SKAT(tax authorities) because they already know all my details as they are linked with my CPR number. All I need to do is report any corrections. If not my tax reporting is done by default.

When my kid was born in Denmark, the nurse came with a bag with a stork doll, and an envelope with….. CPR number :-)

It was a pleasure how things were digitized in Denmark.
I wouldn't know about Android, really, but I do know that there is some discussion right now about how some consoles are off limits due to not being allowed to ship non-C/C++ code to them and this will be addressed by compiling Odin to a subset of C in the future if I remember correctly.

I would probably inquire on the Odin discord server about this particular thing as it's very likely someone has already stumbled upon it: https://discord.com/invite/sVBPHEv

Even within Austria there are differences: i used to live in Innsbruck with an address written 4-51 (meaning street number 4, door 51) and then moved to Vienna, street number 2, door number 14. But in Vienna 2-14 means the big building with street numbers 2 through 14. My building was not big, you could physically see it is street number 2. Well, i never got that letter.
I mean, from what I hear Berlin does take the cake on this one, but yes: its a country-wide phenomenon.

For what its worth, I was pleasantly surprised by the things you can do digitally in Kiel.

Schleswig-Holstein, Niedersachsen, Hamburg and Bremen have "Dataport", a publicly owned company which does a lot of the tech for public institutions in the area. While they are not operating at the efficiency of a normal company, they seem to be fairly useful. I'm not sure if something similar exists for other regions in Germany.
Technically no, but perhaps legally, data protection laws in China is probably non-existant.
A _Georgist critique_ is a critique from a Georgist perspective, same as a _Marxist analysis_ would be an analysis from a Marxist perspective. A _Georgist's critique_ would be a critique from someone who is a Georgist, but not necessarily relating to Georgeism, which is more ambiguous in this case.
Just to add some jargon for folks who want to do more research into this:

The technique of having the interpreter dispatch duplicated in the postlude of each handler function is called "threading". If your dispatch uses an indirect jump, it's called "indirect threading". The indirect-jump-predictor is known as branch target predictor (BTB).

It's unfortunate that you refer to them as "LAST" and "FIRST" when the whole point of the exercise is to decouple ordering from naming.

"Christian name" and "surname" is closer to what you want, but problematic for different reasons.

Probably I shouldn't bother responding to your post, but I have a spare minute, so...

This has nothing to do with "religion", except perhaps the religion of people who place far too much faith in models. You can, quite literally, construct a model to do anything you want. Cold fusion? The Fermi Paradox, either side? The sun about to go supernova? No problem.

Of course, scientists generally build models honestly. However, when the models don't do quite what is wanted, it is all too easy to "tweak" them until they do. The scientists know what conclusion they believe in. Their models validate this conclusion. News at 11:00.

The trick is not to go to the main registration side but to the small local offices in the outer areas. Like in Nuremberg not going into the city center but to Katzwang or Großgründlach.

Sometimes you can got there without appointment and you can go in, because they have nothing to do and they are waiting happily for you and they are very friendly.
