High throughput networking does the same thing, it polls the network adapter rather than waiting for interrupts.

The cost is not high, it's much less expensive to have a CPU operating more efficiently than not processing anything because its syncing caches / context switching to handle an interrupt.

These libraries are for busy systems, not systems waiting 30 minutes for the next request to come in.

Basically, in an under utilized system most of the time you poll there is nothing wasting CPU for the poll, in an high throughput system when you poll there is almost ALWAYS data ready to be read, so interrupts are less efficient when utilization is high.
Same experiences, multiprocessing is such a pain in python. It's one of these things people think they can write production code in, but they just haven't run into all the ways their code was wrong so they figure out those bugs later in production.

As an aside I still constantly see side effects in imports in a ton of libraries (up to and including resource allocations).

Realistically, these are the organizations that can afford to develop a high performance browser engine.

All the chrome and firefox forks probably don't have the devs or infrastructure to fork blink/gecko and keep up with security and features.

It's easy to be excited about Ladybird -- and maybe it will work, MAYBE.

It's fair to argue that we've let the web evolve into such an advanced platform that building a secure high performance browser is a HUGE moat.

People are so fast to criticize Mozilla. Maybe, this isn't all bad.
My two takes:

- due to climate change alone AND business predatory practice alone infrastructure are very vulnerable and there is no easy fix at infra level;

- p.v. and batteries for large slices of the inhabited planet where they are meaningful AT CHINESE PRICES are an expensive backup that can pay back itself even without emergencies.

Corollary: doing our best to annihilate companies who makes absurdly high margins on p.v. and batteries and do individually our best to be covered. Personally I eat my fingers a bit when 4 years ago I decide for a small (8kWh LFP) backup with only 5kWp p.v. instead of 10kWp/30kWh witch would give me enough also in winter in case of a blackouts. In summer I can be autonomous since local climate is hot only during the day, no need of A/C from early evening to mid-morning.

Corollary of the corollary: built modern well insulated homes is needed, not only to consume less as a whole society but also to live well individually.

If Apple delivers a defective device to the customer, I see no reason why they shouldn't be fixing it using the money the customer originally paid. A security vulnerability may eventually leave a device completely unusable.

The sad thing is, probably half the extensions I have installed have these permissions, and I see them during install and I just sigh and click OK, knowing full well the implications, but still needing that juicy extension functionality regardless.

Couple of questions, feel free to correct my assumptions as I've only ever played backjack casually at a casino after a conference.

- I'm guessing that the configurable decision matrix is only of use because of the card counting right? Because I was under the impression that there is already a "perfect" blackjack strategy (that the casinos even give you as an instructional card because they have their house edge anyway) assuming standard rules and no counting whatsoever.

- is the bet scheme for kelly criterion so you can figure out how long on average your bankroll would exist given a certain amount of counting?

- is this a way to figure out how to play to maximise your drinks comps in Vegas given a certain bankroll? :-) /s

Looking forward to seeing your videos posted.
the use cases for me are where DTCC and the transfer agent industry are disintermediated as an option for people that want an option, and there are a lot of competitors trying different approaches using distributed ledgers. that's useful for me and I use that every day, and I don't expect financial plumbing to be "actual generally useful" to everyone else. most people go their entire lives unaware of DTCC and the transfer agent industry.

the settlement time of 1 block is great for me.

I don't really think you not being the target audience is an "actual useful" goal post to determine whether something is worth discussing on a tech forum, since the question is about non-fraud, but your bar is something that has to then be debated per use case based on whether you unilaterally derive utility from that.

the observation is that there is a group of people that have caked yourself in layers of news only about fraud, and my observation is that that's not the only news there is. that's the aberration in this tech community that's otherwise more discerning, I mean - crypto people are absolutely here - the contributors to all those parts of the stack are here and have been for over a decade. Brian Armstrong initially posted about Coinbase here. Its just the consensus is odd and has only chiseled away, while people have continued to build and grow the industry just in other forums.

The only really good Star Trek series I saw was DS9. It was darker, had longer story arcs, religion and fully developed characters. There was even a scene that illustrated this, where Captain Sisko was talking with an Earth politician and telling him that the problem was he lived on Earth, a paradise, and couldn't understand the war and problems those near DS9 faced.
It is the lack of regulation that is the problem here. The power company is incentized to make higher profits year around by not preparing for a disaster.

It’s not lifetimes of money, but there are substantial costs.

All of the existing distribution conductors need to be buried either by trenching or directional boring, all of the pole-mounted transformers need to be replaced with pad-mounted transformers , and all of the customer service drops need to be converted from overhead to underground.

In another post, someone said about $2.5M per square mile, which isn’t actually all that much money. If you figure half labor and half material costs (fairly standard for electrical construction) and labor costs of $100/hr (IBEW 66 journeyman lineman), that’s 12,500 hours of labor, or a 6.25 person crew for one year to convert one square mile, and Houston is 637 square miles.

~4,000 person years of labor, 400 full time linemen could do the whole city in 10 years.

Downtown Ballard had a lot of power outages over the last two years. Apparently they were using a different transformer than everywhere else, all of which are getting old, and some procurement mistake lead to the spare parts being back-ordered by a year.

At least until very recently (and to a certain extent even today still) many different companies would have the same name and similar branding despite being in vastly different industries.

Good names are hard (something any programmer should be familiar with) so it really just doesn't make sense to not use a name or domain that would work well for your brand just because a previous company existed at one point in the past.

These libs are more about hot paths / cache coherency and allowing single CPU processing (no cache coherency issues / lock contention) than anything else. That is where the performance comes from, referred to as "mechanical sympathy" in the original LMAX paper.

Originally computers were expensive, and lots of users wanted to share a system, so a lot of OS thought went into this, LMAX flips the script on this, computers are cheap, and you want the computer doing one thing as fast as possible, which isn't a good fit for modern OS's that have been designed around the exact opposite idea. This is also why bare metal is many times faster than VMs in practice, because you aren't sharing someone else's computer with a bunch of other programs polluting the cache.

We don't buy bacon treated with nitrates and nitrites. That's 95% of supermarket bacon. We mostly end up buying prosciutto, which is just dried, salted and nitrate free or use home made bacon, which is basically 100% pork fat in my country. The Italians also make it, it's called lardo and it's cured with herbs. We only cure it with salt and smoke it. I'm not much of a fan of 100% pork fat or lard, but it does make good fries.

Since this library ends up acting as a layer on top of the listed specifications it'd be more applicable to see benchmarks comparing the performance to building on top of said specifications directly to get an idea of overhead. At that point you could layer existing generic comparisons for the specifications you listed (or anything else for that matter) instead of needing them all to be redone specifically with this in mind.
I don't think you intended to be condescending with your last comment, but the "go axe throwing" advice that I hear SO, SO, SO OFTEN from WFH advocates is incredibly dismissive.

Between kids, work, and old, comfortable friends, adults tend to be very cliquey and unwilling to open up their friend circles. It is very difficult (not impossible) to make friends as an adult for most people (myself included). The office was an environment that made this _more possible_ (certainly not guaranteed), but people seem hell-bent on making that go away. This is becoming even more difficult with the Meetup scene having eroded over the years in favor of walled-garden Facebook groups.

Speaking of social settings, about this:

> You are better off going to church on Sunday or finding some other network outside of work. Axe throwing is popular. If your job life changes you shouldn't have to rebuild your social network.

If you're not religious, church is 100% a non-starter. If you don't have kids, church is even worse. It's very rare to find intentionally child-free couples at church.

I've also found that the relationships formed through church are just as likely to be "hollow" as those formed at work. (You can also build some very-long-lasting relationships with old workmates; it happens!)

Most certainly, or those who can't get jobs because of their record but know how to code.
From the CEL Github page:

> The required components of a system that supports CEL are:

> The textual representation of an expression as written by a developer. It is of similar syntax to expressions in C/C++/Java/JavaScript

Ok

> A binary representation of an expression. It is an abstract syntax tree (AST).

> A compiler library that converts the textual representation to the binary representation. This can be done ahead of time (in the control plane) or just before evaluation (in the data plane).

> A context containing one or more typed variables, often protobuf messages. Most use-cases will use attribute_context.proto

> An evaluator library that takes the binary format in the context and produces a result, usually a Boolean.

Why? All of these sound like implementation details to me, some of which I prefer not to have, such as the necessity for binary representation.
