> Yeah the liberal use of genocide isn't going to help

Agreed: russia's liberal use of genocide in Ukraine isn't going to help resolve the conflict. Beyond that, denying russia's 3rd genocide of Ukrainians isn't going to help. Especially since nearly every country in the world has rejected the excuses you speak, and condemned russia's actions in the UN. If russia cared about civilian killing, russia would not have killed so many civilians in their war on Chechnya and their other conquered lands, and russia would stop killing so many civilians in Ukraine, including in Eastern Ukraine.

>> Had russia stayed within their borders and minded their own business, the current russian war of genocide against Ukraine would not exist.

> The same could be said about the US

The same could be said about russia. "Someone else did it" isn't a sufficient excuse, which is why nearly every country in the world has rejected the excuses you speak, and condemned russia's actions in the UN. If you think other countries' actions are equivalent, you may make your case to the UN, who can decide if they are. If you think other countries did wrong, you may make your case to the ICJ or ICC, who can decide if they did. Note that "invade and genocide" is not an acceptable response.

> 1940? What time is it?

Has russia ever acknowledged that the actions I cite were wrong, apologized, and made reparations? No? They're just doing the same thing again? And russia is surprised the world is reacting to russian actions in the way they are? Such surprise is performative. It is best if russia accepts sooner, rather than later, that if they wish to change the world's reasonable reactions to unreasonable russian behavior, they must first change the unreasonable behavior. This starts with accepting to settle their complaints via multilateral diplomacy, not invasion and genocide. It also means accepting russia doesn't get everything russia wants.

> The difference with this and Russia is, that there was never a threat

Oh, russia has never attacked any countries? They present no threat? If this was true, countries would not seek to join NATO to protect themselves from russian threat. Ukraine sought protection because they felt threatened by russia. They were right: russia attacked them for no good reason.

> it is an open threat to Russia if Ukraine is part of NATO.

This is an empty, world-rejected talking point. Every country has the right to join NATO if they wish. It only threatens russia's ability to conquer and genocide other countries, which they have no right to do in the first place. As long as russia doesn't attack other countries, there is no problem. A better representation is that russia is an open threat to Ukraine and eastern Europe if the latter are not in NATO. russia proved this to be true with their nazi-like wars of territorial conquest.

The interesting part of this project is compiling doom into a weird target architecture: a .qasm circuit file. This requires you to do things like decompose additions into TOFFOLI gates. But the code in the repo doesn't include that part, it only includes the code for interpreting the circuit and the produced qasm file.

The author is aware of this (from the readme):

> For now I'm still tidying up the engine code, but basically I have about 8,000 lines of c++ functions allowing a number of reversible binary and arithmetic operations on quantum registers, for example "flipIfLessThanOrEqualTo" which flips all qubits in a register if the value of another register is less than some given value. Everything is done with integers.

Kinda ironic they left out the most interesting part.

Given that there's only 174 qubytes of storage (72376 qubits total - 6986 qubits ancilla - 64Kqb screen) it's clear that almost the entire world state is in the series of gates rather than in qubits. So, like, the wall locations are probably implicit in the series of instructions rather than being data-driven, so you wouldn't be able to make a wall that was in a superposition of two places. It would be interesting if the author said what specifically was in the qubits; I'd imagine it's probably things like health/ammo/position/enemyposition but an explicit list would be good.

They say this is a reimplementation of Doom, as opposed to a cross compilation. That makes sense to me. For example, I doubt there's anything like a tree data structure anywhere in the rendering, since that stuff doesn't really translate from programs to circuits. Tree structures work efficiently around the fetch-decode-execute bottleneck, but circuits lack that bottleneck. Also, a "true" quantum implementation of the rendering would struggle to do any kind of truncation of what to render since the camera position can be in superposition. Frustrum culling would implicitly measure the position of the camera, preventing some potential interference effects, and so would be an approximation instead of a pure optimization.

From a high level view there's not much point in allowing most of doom's state to be in superposition, since constantly rendering them to the screen measures them preventing interesting interference effects. You could maybe make it so that enemies in rooms not being rendered were undergoing a quantum walk, so their positions behaved sort of analogous to an electron in a potential well. So entering the room at different times would result in different distributions of positions.
For me it's hypocrisy to regulate surveillance of private companies by state. You have option to not use their data collecting technologies. You cannot opt out to surveillance by state!

Unfortunately migrating real-time stuff to Linux _doesn't_ necessarily reduce costs or simplify real-time development needs. I've been doing embedded development for 5+ years at a few companies and doing embedded Linux is still a slog. I prefer a good MCU running Nim or other modern language. Heck there's even MicroPython nowadays.

Especially for anything that needs to "just run" for multiple years. Linux means you must deal of the distro or something like Yocto or Buildroot. Both of which have major pain points.

What I don't get is, how on earth developers in the USA jumped on the boat of WFH.

Isn't it obvious that if a job can be done from anywhere that would mean that you are opening yourself to world wide competition when subsidizing your company with your own facilities?

Was it hubris? Do Americans believed that only they can do this coding stuff? Not only that the job market was opened to global competition, it allowed tech and capital transfer. On the grand scheme its great, now everyone does all these things but from workers perspective its very bad idea.

It has been quite some time to see some outstanding American innovation. OpenAI and the generative AI was one but it didn't took much time for China to leap ahead. Maybe its nationalism, maybe its the language barrier but I see a lot of Asian innovations that don't catch much attention in the Anglosphere. American techies pumping Sora on Twitter over some demos when Chinese are having it open to use by the public was amusing.

There's this narrative on Twitter and elsewhere about how EU over regulated tech and fell behind US but this whole narrative is based on dismissing the Asian innovations. You have to omit China and other Asian countries from the graphs that show Europe is falling behind so to claim that free market and libertarianism is driving innovation and growth, because if you include Asia you end up claiming that its communism and centralized economies are actually the big success stories.
You've ignored the part where the declarative template is immediately attached to its parent as a shadow root by the parser, and its siblings become the slot children. You don't need to instance or register anything with JS there, just copy-paste the template (admittedly lame, but kinda the same repetition as SSR today, just less involved and with a shadow root).
fond memories. we did tv guides for a local cable system for a bit in the early 90s. they had a customer db, but no "export" beyond sending print jobs to their bigarse line printer.

but it was a parallel port and i had use of a luggable with a bidirectional parallel port so i'd haul that in once a month, hook it up, and have them run a "hello customer" fake billing run, which was hoovered up and stripped down to the address list we needed to mail to that month.
Both happen; people abandon churches in droves in their late teens/early 20's, and then there's a constant stream of older converts / people trying it on.

> In my experience shared memory is really hard to implement well and manage:

I second that. It took us quite some time to get the correct architecture. After all, iceoryx2 is the third incarnation of this piece of software, with elfepiff an me working on the last two.

> 1. Unless you're using either fixed sized or specially allocated structures, you end up paying for serialization anyhow (zero copy is actually one copy).

Indeed, we are using fixed size structures with a bucket allocator. We have ideas on how to enable the usage on types which support custom allocators and even with raw pointers but that is just a crazy idea which might not pan out to work.

> 2. There's no way to reference count the shared memory - if a reader crashes, it holds on to the memory it was reading. You can get around this with some form of watchdog process, or by other schemes with a side channel, but it's not "easy".
>
> 3. Similar to 2, if a writer crashes, it will leave behind junk in whatever filesystem you are using to hold the shared memory.

Indeed, this is a complicated topic and support from the OS would be appreciated. We found a few ways on how to make this feasible, though.

The origins of iceoryx are in automotive and there it is required to split functionality up into multiple processes. When one process goes down, the system can still operate in a degraded mode or just restart the faulty process. With this, one needs an efficient and low-latency solution else the CPU is spending more time on copying data than on doing real work.

Of course there are issues like the producer mutating data after delivery, but here are also solutions for this. It will of course affect the latency but should still be better than using e.g. unix domain sockets.

Fun fact. For iceoryx1 we supported only 4GB memory chunks and some time ago someone came and asked if we could lift this limitation since he wanted to transfer a 92GB large language model via shared memory.
