Excellent point, and interesting paper.

Arguably though, CAM is a totally different subject, though as you point out, inextricably intertwined with CAD in their origin.

Wasn't it a pretty straight-forward lineage of: G-code is developed, there are a couple of commercial apps which write to it, then when the EMC software is release and Mach3/LinuxCNC/Grbl become prevalent there was an explosion of different software options?

Just not sure what one could say about that which would be interesting.
Just deleting them is not so useful.
It would be better to uncover the people behind them and who use the collected data.

Some honeypot scheme or social engeneering against them.

Ideas?
It doesn't need to be proprietary or have an advantage. It just need someone willing to pay for it and a mechanism for doing so.

However, the default assumption is that all open source software is free to download and use.

Of course, there's the matter of revenue. If you get 100 dollars or 1000 dollars a month, is that significant to do anything useful for the project?

I must admit, sometimes reading gists and other repos on fixing hardware issues I think, "am I downloading malware?".

Better to have an attitude that Github is malware and a healthy skepticism of any repo?

You have to bounce through the kernel back out to use space. The number of syscalls is quite high. In many cases this is mitigated somewhat by the page cache making reads cheaper, but that’s explicitly an anti design here.

I believe there’s work to minimize this using io_uring so that you can talk to the fuse driver without the kernel being in the middle, but that work isn’t ready last time I checked.

For what it’s worth at Palm we had a similar problem because our applications were stored compressed but exposed through fuse uncompressed, instead of O_DIRECT I just did an fadvise to dump the cache after a read. Not as high throughput but the least risky change to get the same effect.
The United States is not a bubble. Outbreaks overseas can have impacts here not only through possible infection reaching here but also the potential for the disease to develop antibiotic resistance in an improperly handled antibiotic treatment (such has cutting off access to the drug mid treatment) and of course 2nd order effects like outbreaks disrupting global supply chains.

The COVID 19 global pandemic was only a few years ago and its impacts lasted years. TB is not as infectious and would have a reduced spread but treating it helps contain possible issues and may one day lead to its eradication.

How does cutting funding reduce risk? Reduce suffering?
Or install an add on that blocks the api yt uses to detect if it's in the background. It wrecks my charge though.
- I recommend reading the comment history of @neonsunset. He has shared quite some insights, snippets and benchmarks to make the case that if you do not need the absolute bare metal control C or Rust provides, you are better of with either .net or Java.

- Whereas in .net you have the best native interop imaginable for a high level language with a vast SDK. I understood that Java has improved on JNI, but I am not sure how well that compares.

- Programming languages are like a religion, highly inflammable, so I can imagine you would not be swayed by some rando on the internet. I would already be happy if you choose Go over Python, as with the former you win some type safety (but still have a weak type system) and have a good package manager and deployment story.

- Go was designed for Google, to prevent their college grads from implementing bad abstractions. But good abstractions are valuable. A weak type system isn't a great idea (opinion, but reasonable opinion). Back then .net was not really open source (I believe) and not as slim and fast as it is now, and even then, I think Google wants to have control about their own language for their own internal needs.

- Therefore, if you are not Google, Go should likely not be your top pick. Limited area of application, regrettable decisions, tailored for Google.
In Go, you have to explicitly do a defer. In C#, you just write `using var file = File.Open(...);`. Some methods handle disposal for you - you never interact with it if all you need is

foreach (var line in File.ReadLines("example.txt")) { ... }

Here, file handle will be opened once you start enumeration and will be closed through enumerator disposal which is one of the calls foreach is desugared into (to be accurate, this specific implementation will also close the handle when reading the last line, but I'd expect user-authored type to do handle closure through dispose implementation only)

I agree that Rust implicitly inserting drop() by proving the exact place the value gets dropped at is superior, but C# experience is not exactly terrible either.
Red Hat bringing CentOS in-house (well before IBM entered the picture) was IMO one of the first in a string of expedient decisions that were... unfortunate. When I was at Red Hat I loudly argued against some of the ways things were handled but I also understand why various actions were taken when they were.

I'd also argue that CentOS classic was mostly bug for bug compatible but probably close enough for most. It shared sources but did use a different (complex) build system as I understand it.
All of them do, including Firefox.

> Having some degree of personal experience with this situation myself, I don't see why you'd ever sever a relationship over something like this

The reasons were explicitly given in a written piece: the daughter severed herself because it hurt her when her dad insisted that she was lying to him. His wive was hurt because it is very hard to plan your retirement with someone who is convinced that the world would change in a year.

Note that the son stayed connected and the actions of his dad never explicitly hurt him. Made him feel sad and disconnected, but never hurt.

The problem wasn't that the others never accepted his believes or weren't considerate of them; the problem was explicitly the dad who decided that he knew better about his daughter sexuality and shared house budget, without taking anyone views on the things the rightfully belonged to them (their thoughts and the money that partially belonged to the wife).

It is hard not to sever relationship with a person when they decide that they have a right to choose for you. Either you pretend that they have this power over you or hurt them when you make your own choices, making them feel betrayed and powerless.
I work at Notion.

It’s stock RDS on EBS, which as you say is super slow compared to Genuine Local Storage. Any large scan or large result set query that doesn’t fall into the Postgres cache or the underlying EBS cache is frustratingly slow.

However almost all of our reads are “get row by ID” lookups that hit memcached. Our query pattern is mostly recursive graph traversal which Postgres is bad at, with our table size even a 20x faster disk wouldn’t make it feasible to do in SQL. We also copy paste “notion database” data in to a stateful caching service, but that also needs specialized indexing for user defined schema, another thing Postgres can’t handle (my last project was an improvement to that service).

The place we really suffer from the EBS slowness is with full table scan data migrations, stuff like “for all blocks in Notion, block = f(block)”. For this we use “Big Data” approach reading from DB dumps in S3 instead of Postgres directly.

Ultimately I’d prefer to serve every read from your device’s local storage, which is my current project.

While some of this is true, some of it is not (deep links worked fine, there was a brief time where hidden html was encouraged and worked just as well for search engines to pick up, etc.)

More to the point though- Flash didn't shine as a regular website thing (Adobe people used Dreamweaver for that, if anything). It was a game/application development tool. Most of the time you didn't need any of these web-friendly things, same way you'd expect every game to have a different menu system.

It was an awesome time for innovation and creative thinking. Not everything is a flex box. I miss those days
I believe so, yes.

I tried WfWg 3.11 but on reflection it was a bad version to try, what with 32-bit file access and so on. It didn't start successfully.

But saying that, I ran and supported Windows 2.01, 3.0 and 3.1 in production. If I never seen any of them running again I will not be sorry. I have zero nostalgia for them, or indeed, for CP/M either.

I'm in the same boat, I wonder if you can use the web interface from a 4g modem to make calls/send&recieve SMS messages. Could install a cloudflare tunnel on it and access it while abroad.

I know you can do sms messages, but I'm not sure about calls.

Perhaps an old Android phone could be used for this?
In reality you would build your application server on top of the HTTP/2 server, so you'd not have to deal with multiplexing, the server will hide that from you, so it's the same as an HTTP/1 server (ex: you pass some callback that gets called to handle the request). If you implement HTTP/2 from scratch, multiplexing is not even the most complex part... It's rather the sum of all parts: HPACK, flow-control, stream state, frames, settings, the large amount of validations, and so on.
Makes a lot of sense and I don't disagree. They're definitely not a return to the web and I probably misrepresented them that way in my post. I was mostly using them as examples of existing platforms where you can find content without being subjected to the algorithm's suggestions, if you choose to use the "following" or "subscribed" features instead of "Discover" or "For You".

I'll say it depends.

Sometimes the hardware or the software you run requires exact versions of the packages with some specific behavior to work correctly. These include drivers' parts on both kernel and userland, some specific application which requires a very specific version of a library, so on and so forth.

I for one, can use Alma for 99% of the time instead of the old CentOS, but it's not always possible, if you're running cutting edge datacenter hardware. And when you run that hardware as a research center, this small distinction cuts a lot deeper.

Otherwise, taking the LEAPP and migrating to Alma or Rocky for that matter is a no-brainer for an experienced groups of admins. But, when computer says no, there's no arguing in that.
I checked before i posted. Liked the 'installer' bit they do just before the c&c remaster. One of the cooler installers during that time. Most were boring text screens with blue and white text. c&c had none of that crap. They start world building the second you get in.
I recently saw this and want to do something similar with just 4 machines to play relatively simple games (e.g. age of empires). I might follow what you have here directly, but am also considering just using a single machine with 4 vms.

The big constraint for me is I don't want to buy a bunch of hardware.
No need for the snark. If you want specific details of how postgres differs from graph databases I have nothing for you. I just find your position that btrees are optimised for every query structure... obviously false on general grounds? Like a thing to do to make recursive queries faster is to store relations as direct pointers of some kind, rather than doing index scans for every level of join.

Perhaps we're talking past each other about the word "optimised".

onmicrosoft is "on microsoft" and is used behind the 365 company workspace. I have a onmicrosoft email for a 365 developer account, and anyone who connects to our company via teams seems to get a "{original_email}@{company}.onmicrosoft.com" ID setup, so I assume they're probably using it for things behind the scenes which also needs to void DKIM or something.

Feels like just adding a direct "don't send as paypal, apple etc" rules would probably work though.

The "cameras stopped working" thing is not true, but often repeated. People really don't want to do their homework and just repeat what they've already heard elsewhere.
No, actually, they don't say that. They very clearly say that they don't (and don't believe most people will) consider what they are doing "selling your data", but that it may legally considered selling your data in some countries.

For example, Firefox runs ads using your language and city/country (on the default new tab page) - but no other data. I think the vast majority people would fine with the privacy implications of that, but this may be legally considered selling your data.

Being specific about what types of data they collect and how they use it is actually far superior to some nebulous promise that has no definition.
Who said they were government owned though?

Stagnation and risk averseness is pretty much the default when it comes to most major European companies. In almost any sector.
16GB? In 2025 that seems very small for anything other than gaming.
You are successful, they will change the license, and you're dead

Yeah, but this assumes that Mozilla itself is successful enough to retain the leverage to pull back users towards Firefox.

With the kind of stuff they have been pulling lately it's possible to see a future where one of the above forks (or call-them-what-you-will) gain traction and take users and developers away from Firefox. If this happens, Mozilla deciding to close off the code would just be the last nail in their coffin.
It only surfaces because the algorithm is set to a simple more engagement = more visibility. If it was removing outliers, then this would not only not be the case, but also arguably create a more pleasant experience for everyone.

Of course greed prevails, which is why we are where we are.
It's a gaming card.
We don't change the expected versions. We might patch/backport more to them if there are issues, but the versions remain.

Basically the goal is still to fit the exact situation you just brought up. I'm not aware of this ever not being the case if it weren't to be the case for some reason, then we have a problem we need to fix.

All of the extra stuff we do, patch, etc. is with exactly what you just stated in mind.
Hey Kenton!

I figured you had done something similar with the LAN Party House. If I hadn't figured it out I was going to ask/look for your setup.

> You observed some slowness using Windows over the network.

Mini-ITX makes it a bit difficult to upgrade to 10GbE (only one PCIe slot!), and the slowness isn't bad enough in-game to deal with upgrading it just yet.

> BTW, a frustrating thing: The Windows 10->11 updater also seemingly fails to include network drivers and so you can't just upgrade over iSCSI.

I've read (and also observed, now) that if you install directly on iSCSI Windows doesn't make the recovery partition. This evidently also breaks 10->11 upgrades.
This raises a big question: How effective is GitHub’s abuse reporting system against large-scale malware campaigns? If 1,000+ malicious repos can persist for months, does this mean GitHub lacks automated scanning or relies too much on user reports?
How much is actually removed? And even supporting the single main callback uBlock needs would be very meaningful.

Management by committees. Lots of office politics. Most senior execs have successfully failed upwards. Once every 18 months they let go of people they stick the blame on thereby losing any memory of design decisions.
Yes, ask any Canadian how they feel about their sovereignty right now. Let me know how the Riviera in Gaza is going to work out and enjoy that vacation in the Gulf of America. Do you remember when Solemeni got assassinated. I also hope your not what he calls "vermin" and end up in Guantanamo Bay. Just because they're so dumb and incompetent and incapable of accomplishing their goals(at this moment) doesn't make a spade a spade. Honestly I am not even surprised by this anymore your post describes exactly why fascism takes root, just endless justification of authoritarianism.

>If that's the way the law is interpreted, it's silly.

It's hard to tell from your comment who exactly is the target of your complaint. You're not wrong that this interpretation might be silly, but that's not out of the ordinary in carefully using terms of art to insulate from legal liability.

And the issue of peculiar terms of art is leagues different from the issue that everyone else seems to be raising that it represents an intent to abuse private data. Those are two completely different conversations, but you're talking about them here like they're the same thing.
I contributed UX for a 'save cookies for this site' dropdown feature in the navbar, a poc was made which looked good, but it got lost in other work and eventually didn't land in a release that I'm aware of. Shame because that one feature would make it practical to use the recommended clear cookies behavior by default except for particular sites and overall boost everyone's privacy and security because I'm pretty sure most people turn it off after getting sick of logging in. After a couple of months I went back to Firefox and hardened it making it basically the same as LF but not being a month behind in updates. I guess I'll revisit the project now
Eh.. lots of projects targeted mobile app stores by authoring in Flash and using the GPU accelerated stuff. Starling was a semi-blessed framework. Worked perfectly well, no battery drain. Lots of "native" apps were authored that way (and still are, you see the same approach with Unity etc.)

Browser plugins could have been fixed to catch up, the VM itself wasn't the problem in terms of drain
