"Our examples are guaranteed to work (99.9%+ of the time...) on X configuration(s) in Y environmental conditions with Z functions." Is a pretty normal expectation when your paying thousands or tens of thousands per month per seat.

If you've literally never seen a guarantee like that and your company is actually paying that much money for a product, then it would be wise to shop around.
The council, where all member states are represented, will vote on this.

It's basically like the senate in the US, except the states are represented by ministers instead of elected senators.
Thats a myth.

Can't you do the same they do? Obviously not about the contents, I believe you when you say yours is so much better, but about the SEO. Isn't it possible to imitate their tactics to a certain extent, without getting equally trashy?

"The software company has amassed “one of the largest armies of corporate diplomats that we’ve ever seen”, said Manas Chawla, a researcher who has studied the company. “They include policy officials working on everything from how to regulate artificial intelligence to protecting elections and tackling cyberwarfare against sovereign states,” he said."

"The UN efforts are part of an operation under Smith that costs more than $1bn a year to run, according to people familiar with the company. The groups inside Microsoft reporting to him include legal, corporate and government affairs, accounting for what Microsoft describes as around 2,000 “professionals”. His organisation also includes a digital crimes unit and teams working on identifying cyber attacks and misinformation campaigns."
I met the Yandex CEO and CTO in Moscow back in June of 2006 at their headquarters, scouting them out as a Firefox search partner. They had real tech and capable people back then and over the years they got better and better. We eventually signed them as our default in Russia where their native language advantage was a clear win over Google. I still use them occasionally today and find their search to be a solid product.
Is the question "why async X" just short for "why cooperative multitasking in X language"?

Coming from the Python world where I've written a ton of async code there (which I think is just a short way of saying cooperative concurrency?), it's generally easier to reason because you don't need to worry about getting preempted anywhere. If your application is mostly comprised of hurry-up-and-wait I/O code, single thread, single process can be great.

Has anyone tried DMT focus groups to get information on CO2 removal and reef regeneration?
No, but I'm getting close to the point where I'll attempt it.

OSD335x is the SiP version with integrated DDR RAM, removing the most difficult part of PCB design (ie: impedance matched / delay matched DDR). It's more expensive than a raw AM3558 from TI, but it'd be my first step.

Then when I want to try the more difficult DDR routing, it's available and Beaglebone Black/green serves as reference designs for me to study.
Windows 11 pushed me into "My Mac is my primary computer, I use my PC for things I can't do on my Mac."

> OS threads have a large pre-allocated stack, which increases per-thread memory overhead.

It should be noted that AFAIK on all modern operating systems, only one page of the stack is actually allocated on thread creation, and the rest is merely reserved address space that will be allocated on demand.

That doesn't make this point wrong: 4 KB is still a lot more than the couple of bytes a future might need. And setting up the page table is part of what makes spawning threads so expensive.
These theoretical data rates for WiFi are getting out of hand. The numbers have become completely useless to everyone, because they have no correlation to actual network speed.

It's like presenting the aggregated speed of all switch ports in an ethernet switch, without telling you how many ports there are or what the internal switching speed maximum is. "Here! Buy this 44gbit switch!" and then connect your equipment to find out the fastest link speed you'll get is 1gbps.
That's actually something we're working on right now in the RISC-V community. There are formal verifications that can be done at multiple hardware levels but the community needs to ratifiy more in the way of standards.

After all... I assume wouldn't be comfortable until you can run Qualcomm's verifier (or a libre community supported option) on TI's chips, or a similar model of 'trust but verify'.

American Big Tech Has Enslaved Us [video]
Although it's generally very civilized and might be higher than an average in internet, I can't say it's high anything except computing. In every other topic there are mostly "I read some articles in internet and now I will share my knowledge" people. Many people have said it and I can confirm it regarding these very few topics I feel competent enough to comment about. If not anything else, then LK-99 discussion made it very clear.
Sure but then it would be several hundred per device. The military industrial complex is going to do what it’s going to do.
I implemented ffmpeg.wasm in my own web app, and it's working out really well. I didn't have to set up a Lambda to resize video, it happens in the user's browser and the result is uploaded directly to S3. It saves me processing cost, and complexity. It was really easy to implement and works perfectly.
It is not both. The free web would never exist without free software. But would have thrived even more without those parasites.
MBAs continuing to eat the world.
Some people work from home and do things like push Docker images or ML models up, especially over VPNs. Some other users create video content or work in creative spaces that deal with larger files. Comcast’s 45mbps aka 5.625MB/s limit on their highest tier 1200mbps residential service is absolutely a friction point for many of us today.
This is a completely ridiculous mischaracterization of what I wrote, John, and you of all people should understand that sometimes systems programming and network programming are the same goddamn thing. I can tell you that there are plenty of systems written in async Rust that you have probably interacted within the past 4 years and that they would otherwise have been written in C or C++. That's what async Rust was designed for - not "web stuff."
If you gonna put anything on Play store be careful about open sourcing your apps because the bad guys will take your code and package them with malware and will upload them under different names and icons. So then Google in their full wisdom will flag anything that contains that code, including your benign, clean and original app

It can be used either way, e.g. the word "century" means 100 years.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/centi-

Update: looked into this more and the "centi" part of the SI system comes from the Latin word "centum" which means 100, not 1/100. Definitely seems either usage is acceptable.

Consider freetube for a braindead simple mechanism. Alternatively, I believe MPV can suit your needs with some more elbow grease.
The Council has veto powers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Council_of_the_European_Union). If the proposed law needs unanimous agreement of the Council, it makes sense to talk of Finland's vote in that context. Even if only a simple majority is needed, it would be at least a sign that there is resistance in the Council.

Here's a seemingly ridiculous but serious/non-rhetorical question: other than staying up to date with more efficient hardware, what feature or capability does Windows 11 have that Windows 98 did not?

OneDrive? BitLocker? ... Cortana?

The difference between the sum of Windows licensing fees you've paid through the years and the cost of the Windows 98 license is the price you've paid to stay updated.

Considering the fact that you cannot use Windows 98 today other than as a historical curiosity, I feel like what we're paying for is actually not software but a sort of annual (or triennial) ransom.
>Well, that says it. Rust has pivoted to web stuff. For which Go is probably better suited.

I think the focus should be entirely on this line:

>The other domains were - and are! - viable long term opportunities for Rust, but they were seen as not as quick to adopt new technology (embedded), depended on a new platform that had not yet seen widespread adoption itself (WebAssembly), or were not a particularly lucrative industrial application that could lead to funding for the language (CLIs)

The problem is "web stuff" was the only domain that could realistically fund the development of Rust. This is further supported by Mozilla dropping the Rust project with all it's funding issues and the slack being largely picked up by companies like Amazon.

The systems/game languages are still possible, but if the Rust team hadn't focused on serving the needs of an industry that could ensure it's longevity, there might not be any Rust today to say "Good-bye" to.

And I think that's fair. It's unreasonable to expect a project to prioritize your needs when you are unable or unwilling to fund the project. The is also true of the 'crates.io' async problem - the companies that are ready to adopt Rust and pay developers to write Rust are companies in which async networking is a big deal. If there are other libraries that need to exist in any other domain, well someone needs to be paid to write them and it doesn't look like there are very many entities that exist to take up that challenge.
Looks interesting. The android app might work better than Wallabag. Might make the switch.
Nothing against you in particular, I don’t think anyone can predict political outcomes decades out with any sort of accuracy.
Reading academic content is a skill that is learned through practice.

And learning is a skill that is acquired by being really bad at something but doing it anyway.

And accepting that there is a lot of ground to make-up just to get a basic understanding...like all the math you mention. So you learn more math to better understand things with math (and of course that means being bad at the math you want to learn).

On the positive side, there's no test next week and in a few years you might better understand the thing you are struggling with today. That's what growth is and sure growth takes time. But time is all we have.

Good luck.
Frankly I'd rather pay a subscription for a quality operating system that meaningfully improves over time then get a free one that feeds me ads, wastes my time, and frustrates me.

I'm just skeptical MS is capable of delivering on a higher quality OS.
This may be the illusion of choice provided by disruption... Eventually all would settle to just two if no further disruption (periods of chaos) challenged the natural order of dominance. Not feasible in reality as change is constant. Just in theory. Occasionally we see a clear bifurcation the more order we nuance out in large complex systems like politics where the stakes are high and attention is great. We settle on left or right. The sage walks two roads in this case.
I will second the sodium citrate recommendation. It should be in every kitchen if you make food with cheese that is melted. Cheap, crazy long shelf life, very easy to work with.

Adding a bit of sodium hexametaphosphate is good if you want to make cheese slices or blocks of cheese. Increases the firmness of the final product a bit and slices easier.
On what evidence do you believe that?

What I've read of history shows it to have been full of wars with things like genocide and mass rape. We didn't even have a name for genocide until after WW 2 - it was just a standard thing that happened regularly.

And pillaging was just taken for granted as a standard solution to the problem of supplying an army in the field. It was much easier to take whatever the local peasants had and then move on than to have a good supply chain. The fact that the peasants often starved as a result was just one of the costs of war. Better them than us, and we have the weapons.
Desktop Linux is in my personal opinion unusable compared to Windows and MacOS. I acknowledge there are those who feel otherwise.

Every time I try desktop Linux I get rid of it when it does not even have copy and paste consistently implemented and compatible with Mac/Windows copy paste. This is the absolute most basic minimal thing a desktop needs to implement because it’s what users do every 60 seconds. I’m not pressing three keys to copy, sorry.

Copy and paste was invented at Xerox PARC in the 1970s, and desktop Linux still hasn’t worked it out.

And then there’s the visual and look and feel sense that it was made by Dr Frankenstein. Windows suffers from this too but not like Linux which is awful.

Obviously one should buy from trustworthy businesses, that wouldn't drag their customers into court for every deviation.

I'm sure there are shady vendors of high end software products, but at those price ranges there's no reason to choose them over established names.

I’m not saying they won’t do that but Apple has been committed to accessibility in a way that no other company comes close to for decades. It’s in their core DNA and something their CEOs have said they will do even though the return on investment doesn’t really exist. Though I think overtime, it will.

I wish “accessibility” wasn’t such a dirty word for most people (thinking it’s only for “disabled” people, or people with a problem). Accessibility is for everyone and I encourage people to dig into that section of their phone settings. Most people will be surprised at what is there and that there are probably 1-2 things at a minimum that they might be interested in turning on for themselves.
Can NYC ease housing costs with 'City of Yes' proposal?
That sounds dreadful. My condolences that it went that way. Transitioning is difficult enough in society today without such additional burdens, and it is an awful thing that your parents; the people you are programmed to trust and respect by default, were so unsupportive of you.
No, if you read the article the question is not "why you should use async in Rust" or anything like that.

It's literally "why async Rust" as in "why async Rust is the thing that it is," why it is that way, how it came to be, etc.

There's some unavoidable level of relationship, but that's not the focus of the article.
I like how Reuters correctly fact checked a video showing a different concert than the one that was attacked. It is important that a news organization answer a question like “how many people in this video were killed?” with a summary of people that were killed in other unrelated videos

Would you hire remotely for this role (outside US) ?
They could integrate the Windows subscription into the existing Microsoft 365 subscription, and then slowly lock down Windows so that it becomes more and more difficult to use it without Microsoft 365, similar to how they make it ever more difficult to use Windows without a Microsoft account. And slowly increase pricing for Microsoft 365, of course. And you get the first year free with a new PC. Otherwise Windows degrades to the Starter edition.
(Not passing judgement towards op.) Likely because many intelligent people are compensated more highly in the private sector.
Been feeling the same way for the past 15 years. Desktop Linux has certainly gotten better, but its not even at a Windows XP level of usability and feels remarkably stagnant.
That's really great to hear. Having proper build system support will finally let us use this in anger and report actual issues upstream.
Exactly.

It's also worth noting that the US Senate was originally not elected either. The transition to an elected Senate was triggered by two states individually deciding to elect their Senator, then the rest followed. The same could happen in the EU, which would make it much more democratic. And it would only take one country to make the first move.
Yes, along with the variations. So you can do things like “text-green hover:text-red”
The sad truth is that stakeholders know this perfectly well. But they know they have an important marketshare they can extract money from. They want this money now instead of trickled in through the next 20-50 years from now when they might be dead.

It sucks but it if you think about it that way, it makes sense. Companies die in cashouts all the time.

Hopefully this will finally usher in the year of the linux desktop =P
If this passes, I expect disobedience and even more calls for leaving the EU.

EU: Company, this looks like you're facilitating breaking the EU law. Encryption we can't break is forbidden, except when we use it.

Whoa, as the Brits say "Honi soit qui mal y pense"!

Your hermeneutic skills seem a mite lacking today. Did you miss my ironic comment on the PRC imposition of simplified characters: "to my private despair"? I do loathe them and salute Taiwan, Japan, South Korea, and Hong Kong for resisting their use. Then, too, PRC Chinese pinyin (Chang -> Zhang, Chin -> Qin etc) is especially ugly.

Nevertheless, it's hard to deny that English spelling is slowly trudging to the point, where almost no one, including PhDs, can reliably write sustained prose without a spell checker. Hence all the internet use of U, gud, watsup, gimme, etc. etc. It's not the case for other languages that writing is so out of synch with pronunciation. Koreans can learn to read years faster because their alphabet fits the language around them.

In your world, it would seem (correct me if I'm wrong) that you shrug your shoulders and tell the children, "hey, just grit your teeth and learn this clunky writing system that will scar many of you for life as too stupid to read or spell, all the people out there in the world demand you pay the price, while they whiz ahead with their easy systems".

I'm dubious of almost all invocations of "structural racism", but this might be an exception.
Not quite, you can do cooperative multitasking using fibers ('stackful' coroutines).
Is anyone working on an async rust book? I'm aware of the draft that was last updated several years ago. I'm talking about a comprehensive, complete text on par with TRPL. The most difficult subject for rust programmers remains the least written about.
Every post or exploration of modules (including this one) has found that modules are slower to compile.

> I expect the second you can reliably use that almost everyone will switch overnight just from how fast of a speed boost it gives on the STL vs even precompiled headers.

I look forward to that day, but it feels like we're a while off it yet
Like I said a moderate sized team putting their all, going above and beyond, etc..., however you want to phrase it, will be competitive even against a much bigger company putting in a half-hearted effort.

Of course if they slip and only start putting in a 1.5x effort or something then they won't be competitive.

47Gbps in wifi terms is like living to 200 but in dog years. The real speed will probably not be much more than 1gbit which is a common fiber connection speed.

WiFi 6 with a 2023 macbook does not practically deliver 1gbit, even with zero other networks nearby and the macbook 3ft from the access point you'll get something like 700mbit. One factor is that Apple devices so far don't support 160 channel width, only up to 80. But even with a 160 channel you wouldn't make the advertised "5gbit" because that's the aggregated speed across all frequencies and streams, which cannot be combined.
Yeah, I don't see how deadlines/SLOs does any better when there's insufficient capacity to meet those of queued jobs at their concurrency.

> I don’t think it’s possible to meet a latency target through prioritization when there is a fundamental lack of capacity.

This seemingly implies that it would be achievable with target deadlines/SLOs. At capacity I don't see a better solution than give each priority (or target latency) a defined minimum resource allocation.
There are some services, e.g. Expo for React Native, that provide Over-The-Air update mechanisms, bypassing app store approvals.

Also, one of the main points of the WebView control is the ability to show a particular web page. If that's an issue, the platform/SDK should not provide such controls.
