I see no reason why this is a problem. We built analogs of many things before we fully understood how they work. Most of human progress has worked this way through an empirical approach. Makes sense since the real world is the ultimate sandbox and the final judge of an idea’s applicability.
I don’t mean to disparage the project or argue against on-prem, I’ve built and hosted too many servers for that.

I meant to suggest maybe it’s useful, but more in a niche way.

For example the growth in popularity has been steady but incremental.

The fact that it's not called The Art of Software Engineering is interesting. If computer programmer was a good enough title for Knuth and Thompson then it's good enough for me.
There is general agreement that the Java 5 memory model's definition of data races is unsatisfactory. It's overly restrictive of optimizations, it doesn't quite match reality, it's utterly confusing (it's like 12 pages where the rest of the memory model is basically just 1 page). The only reason it's not UB in Java is that Java doesn't want any UB; everyone agreed that in C/C++, UB was the best way to handle data races.

C++ does have a form of defined data races, though: relaxed atomics. And if you look at the history of relaxed atomics, from the moment it was first voted into the standard, there's been constant tweaking and kvetching over its unsuitability. I wouldn't recommend trying to understand relaxed atomics any more thoroughly than "you will read some value you wrote into it."

Even then, cross platform generally meant the same game concept implemented differently. Sometimes the differences were minor enough that it could be hard to tell there were any if just viewing ads for the game. Other times the differences were massive, potentially even shifting the genre of the game.
I'm not using macOS or this browser, but my guess, seeing how the website mentions it's native app, it probably has to do with ibtegrations with certain features available in each macOS version. Live text, sharing options, etc.
> one new line of code is a one-line patch

On the flipside, having three trivial early-return ifs at the beginning of a function will become 9 lines long with braces instead of 6 (or just 3, when doing single-line ifs). Very often, such cases never expand to multiple lines in the future.

If you're looking for a VS Code extension or a GitHub app, check out https://semanticdiff.com/. I'm a co-founder of this project.

If you prefer a CLI tool, check out https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic. It supports more languages, but doesn't recognize when code has been replaced by an equivalent version ("invariances"). So it will show some changes (e.g. replacing a character in a string with an escape sequence) even though they are technically equivalent.
No. I wasn't trying to argue, but stating what I perceive. My perception is that our society has become more apathetic and depressed than before, and we seek distractions. Focusing on solving real problems that could be existential threats to humanity (climate change, all our eggs in one basket/planet, etc.) is the opposite of a distraction. Yet we as a people cannot sit still, or our apathy becomes impossible to ignore, so we find something. A war, just or unjust, is an easy something to find - there is always someone who we deem needs protecting; always someone we deem needs punishing.
If you look up the Racy Single-Check Idiom, the point is to have defined behavior without any additional cost (aside from possible duplicate initialization). No locking, and not even volatile. At least on x86 it effectively comes for free.
I like to watch Formula 1 and NASCAR races. As interesting as seeing the cars pushing the limit of materials and mechanics is just as interesting seeing them crash. It shows the flip side of design.
I wish this sunny-side tutorials had at the end of their books some black pages with the hall of horrors. Weird compilation messages and pointers getting demoted and random segfaults in real scenarios. We all remember the inverted wings in the F1 cars and vehicles literally taking off when the body loose close contact to the ground. Now in NASCAR the roof flaps come off when the car gets slight bump and the front wheels loose traction. C++ Is not a risk averse language.

> I have an idea: I would really like to layer an abstraction ontop of the memory model to formulate a protocol for interprocess/interthread communication. In other words, the cache coherency protocol IS the protocol for message passing. No locks!

If I'm understanding you correctly, this is exactly what I've wanted for a while. Let me use the cached values of things when I want, and let me read and write from/to RAM when I want. Those calls imply the load/store order semantics (I think?).
Indeed, the Web Components APIs don't demand that you put the HTML and JS together. You can use it and structure it to your own likes.

Well for starters an AI won’t challenge you and if there is an incentive to make the AI as pleasing as possible then people will become more and more isolated as the relationship with the AI is “better” in terms of not having negative feedback compared to having a real relationship.

Relationships with friends, family, and significant others are full of compromise and learning empathy to maintain that relationship.

But what happens when your primary relationships have no compromise? That you get whatever you want and can be however abusive you want without repercussions. You can see examples of this today without AI and those relationships are generally deemed by society to be “toxic”.

Living in your own private bubble of a AI product written by someone who’s primary goal is engagement won’t give you the tools to function with a group of other living people.

No, they're not. There's a reason that when the federal funds rate started going up last year, mortgage rates(and other borrowing) have went up in lockstep with each fed rate rise. Rather than being forced to lend according to the capital available to them, banks have a giant bucket of cash they can borrow and profit from, but only by lending it out with interest higher than what they borrow at. This pushes everyone to lend money at the same rate, or no one will take their offer. Sure, the sectors and risks are taken into account, but the base price is basically = fed_fund_rate + my_cut + risks
I love the idea of this project. But unfortunately there are economic reasons that make PeerTube unlikely to win. It's not even about the cost of video hosting, it would apply even if hosting was free.

Imagine yourself as a popular creator. You can put up your videos on an ad-free platform where users can watch them without distractions and be happy. Or you can put them on an ad-supported platform and get a cut of the sweet ad money. As your videos become more popular, the temptation to go for (2) will become stronger. So the free platform will experience a drain of the most popular content, and viewers will flock away accordingly too.

The same argument applies more generally to free vs commercial platforms. It's basically the reason why the internet sucks so much today. If there's a way to square this circle, I don't know it.
I first read about this in the 2007 book, Extraordinary Knowing: Science, Skepticism, and the Inexplicable Powers of the Human Mind by Elizabeth Mayer. I don't remember what she says about Swann, but the book made a big impression on me at the time, and I bought copies for a couple friends.

It's interesting how far he takes particular topics.
One on binary decision diagrams ended up with novel algorithms related to zero-suppressed binary decision diagrams. I think he even "broke" counting records for various hard counting problems (and submitted the numbers at OEIS).

It does feel that sometimes he goes deeper than what you'd expect from a 7 volume book.

As with any complicated topic, you need to give yourself some sleep to be able to truly intuit it.
Is it me or certification is a very powerful way to keep control on the open sourced code ? I mean it's open so you can modify it but as soon as you touch one line, you can't claim the certification anymore... Therefore only MSFT has the ability to change the code (because I suppose they don't have to re-do the whole certification); until another big player gets the certification.

Right ?
Nor critical thinking ability.
They also saw the writing on the wall when the president of HBO said that they would never license their content to Netflix. The reaction to create their own content was in response to that, among other things.
> At the point I'm pretty uncertain if a p2p web browser video app can exist and be usable enough to have people actually want to use it.

People really need to give up on the idea that the browser is a good foundation for robust p2p protocols. There's too many restrictions and the way users conventionally interact with web pages means that running instances of the client tend to be very ephemeral, even if you design it as an SPA. WebRTC kinda works as a transport but it's still a misapplication of the technology.

What PeerTube should do now is have some kind of opt-in peering between instances to mirror each others videos and provide secondary sources to share the load, and then later build some kind of desktop client for user mirroring of content.
> His primary interest lies in the patterns, structures, and the mathematical beauty of the scriptures, rather than in theological or moral interpretations,

Knuth hasn't written much about theology, but he has written some. How much of it have you read? Reading it myself, I don't get the impression he's at all uninterested in the theological or moral implications of scripture. (But I do get the impression he's used the tools of his trade in his public presentations on the subject.)
ThreadX has been around for 25 years. You licensed it and put it in your embedded system. It's in a lot of products.
IMDSv2 has been enabled by default since launch, and was made the default in the AWS SDKs at the same time. What's changing now is that IMDSv1 will be disabled by default. Until now customers had to disable it intentionally, either at the instance level, or by using IAM policies / SCPs to block calls still using IMDSv1 issued credentials.

You can contact the phone company if using a cellphone (i.e. transfer the phone number to a new sim)

When my phone was stolen a few weeks ago, I tried to transfer my phone number to a different company but they wouldnt let me... they told me all I had to do was buy a sim card from the same company. Security is a joke (also physical security).
> Go out, get a hobby, and meet real people. Jesus christ.

It's a bit more aggressive than it needs to be, but in spirit it's less "get healthy" and more "start doing something about the sht situation". Which is hard, nobody denies this, but, in the end, all advice one can give is going to boil down to "start doing something to change it".

Interesting. Is there data to back up this resurgence? I wonder what's causing it.
Far from the full story, but a note is that Java has the nice property of all possible single-operation writes being ≤8 bytes, all aligned if the VM so wants (byte, char/short, int, long, and Object are all the possible writes), whereas in C you can have larger types (structs, or larger ints (_BitInt in C2x); and with compiler extensions those can get arbitrarily misaligned). IIRC there were/are questions about write atomicity for value classes/Valhalla.

And there's not much sane to define data races to anyway - String::hashCode might be "safe" with writing an 'int', but, were you to want a 64-bit hash, i.e. use a 'long', it'd be unsafe, as 64-bit types are specified to possibly tear!

"Broadcom never opens up anything". True, but from a link in the related article from The Guardian [0]

> Broadcom when they developed the original Videocore firmware bought a licence for ThreadX from the writer. AIUI, a lifetime licence, it never expires. No royalties or anything like that. Raspberry Pi have modified that firmware many many times over the last 10 years, but no royalties to pay. Many years later the writer of ThreadX sold the thing to Microsoft.

So sounds like the RPi folks have a free hand over this firmware and they might be able to open it now?

The criteria has changed I feel, a 7/10 in the 90s/00s probably meant it had some good ideas, a highly creative setting, an innovative tech or gameplay mechanic so the end product, while 7/10 because one of the parts just didn't hit the mark or it was just very buggy, the actual game was still enjoyable.

The modern AAA mentality has stripped too much of it down to formulas they consider working or "best practices" (e.g the "UbiSoft Towers" phenomenon) or they're literally shaping the whole game to try and force a specific business model that is more important than shipping good content (Bungie Destiny 2).

Difference is when a game built with that ideology doesn't hit the mark it ends up just being insanely dull and has no spark to keep you going or win you over. Instead of Flawed But Fun you get Competent But Boring.

Here in the Midwest, municipal composting systems [1] [2] [3] and others are very explicit that you can include cooked foods.

Probably 20% of homes in my neighborhood pay the extra $30/quarter to get an additional 96-gallon (~1.1m x 0.8m x 0.8m) curbside cart for recycling, and maybe 5% have a yard waste and food scraps 'biodegradeable' cart (1% or less have backyard gardens and might do their own composting).

I've been using Firefox's built-in password manager before moving to Bitwarden, and I don't think Firefox's isn't all that bad.

All passwords are E2EE, and the sync server is open source and you can theoretically self host it.

I recently read about how Bitwarden adds Passkeys to Firefox, and was left sour there is no universal API for it. Bitwarden just overrides it as JS level, and hands it over to the browser if there are no passkeys selected/available.

I imagine Safari + keychain is coupled in a more secure and well-defined way.

>This, therefore, means you don't believe in the enforceability of contracts

It means don't believe in the absolute enforceability of contracts. If a contract contains clauses that require the physically impossible to happen, such a contract cannot possibly be enforced in its totality.

>To apply our hypo, if Bob told Steve he wouldn't do something in order to satisfy Steve's conditions of transfer of ownership to Bob, but then Bob does what he claimed he would not, is that immoral?

Your question is too abstract to answer. If Bob promised Steve he wouldn't release the slaves, I'd say it's outright immoral to keep that promise. If Bob promise Steve he would make another payment in 30 days, it's probably at least unethical to not keep that promise, absent any additional circumstances. If Bob promise Steve he wouldn't do something with Bob's own property, I'd say Bob is within his right to do whatever he wishes, regardless of anything else.
