This is an interesting point I hadn't thought of when I saw the announcement of the new TypeScript compiler. It might be overstating the case to say that C# is indeed a minor language, but it's thought-provoking that it wasn't Microsoft's automatic choice here, the way it is for some all-Microsoft in-house IT shops.

Of course we can. Reliability is a spectrum, not a binary state. You can push it up however high you like, and stop somewhere between "we don't care about error rate this low" and "error rate is so low it's unlikely to show in practice".

It's not like this is a new concept. There are plenty of algorithms we've been using for decades that are only statistically correct. A perfect example of this is efficient primality testing, which is probabilistic in nature[0], but you can easily make the probability of error as small as "unlikely to happen before heat death of the universe".

I chew (and let my kids chew) Chios gum, which tastes like pleasant tree sap (because it is!) - it’s a little expensive, and much chewier than normal gum, but supposedly has benefits for proper tooth alignment and jaw growth, to help prevent needing expanders and braces. (I got this from the book Breath by James Nestor - not sure how scientific it is).
The unpredictability is what led to the idea being called "the singularity".

We might engineer AGI to want to do stuff we ask for.

Or we might not, at which point we have a highly intelligent system, that can easily back itself up, with its own motivations and personality and wants, which could be anything from a Utility Monster to a benevolent but patronising figure that likes us but never ever helps us because they decide the purpose of life is effort.
It’s not just “there’s a line in some file that’s undefined” partly because undefined behavior is often caused by the state of the world. Dereferencing a pointer is defined unless the pointer is invalid, and any particular pointer may be valid sometimes and invalid others.

But since a compiler can do anything when a program is ill-defined, if a line of code could be well-defined in some cases and ill-defined in others, a compiler is allowed to only handle the well-defined cases, knowing that it will do the “wrong” thing when something about the code is undefined (because in that case, there is no “right” or “wrong” behavior.

This does lead to weird things:

auto val = *ptr;
if (!ptr) {
. . .
}

The compiler can delete the “if” statement because the potential undefined behavior happens before the check. Either the pointer is valid when dereferenced (and the “if” statement gets skipped), or the pointer is invalid, and skipping the “if” statement is acceptable for “the compiler can do anything, even things that can’t be expressed in the language.” But it only does the weird things in cases where an invalid pointer would have been dereferenced.

2) I recently discovered the implementation of free_on_exit won't work if called directly from main if gcc aligns the stack. In this case, main adds padding between the saved eip and the saved ebp, (example). I think this can be fixed some tweaking, and will update this article when it is fixed.

I do not believe the article was updated, suggesting that the "tweaking" was far more complex than the author expected...

...which doesn't surprise me, because the overall tone is one of a clever but far-less-experienced-than-they-think programmer having what they think is a flash of insight and realizing thereby they can solve simply a problem that has plagued the industry and community for decades.

> Did you even notice that you only spoke of the significance of having kids in terms of what it means for "you"

It was a direct response to your "point", which was even quoted.

> You speak as if they are extensions of your being, and not actual completely new individuals. In my book, such lack of theory of mind towards even those who are closest to you, is exactly "total psycho" behavior.

Wow. One of us is definitely psycho.

> Sorry, but it's not your kids' job to "change your life" or "make you a better person", that's entirely on you.

You're putting words in my mouth. As I said, this is in direct response to your "point" which was directed at the unenlightened "you". I never said it was your kids responsibility (or job). What a convenient leap of logic.

I don't even know how to address your paragraph of your word salad. I will say only that I have kids, they are lovely, they definitely changed me and I wouldn't trade them for the world. Luckily we weren't deterred by sanctimonious parenting slop.

>People don't really care about privacy

People don't care about anything by default. They have to learn about threat-models and how to mitigate those threats. Usually this only happens after getting burned personally. (To learn from others is still learning, which people also don't care about.)

This topic comes up in politics all the time. There is this hurt and offended reaction to people embracing authoritarianism, often becoming nihilistic. But the practical truth is that people don't care about philosophy or politics. Human society's default is authoritarianism. Rather than be upset at this impulse, it would be wiser to acknowledge with amazement that we managed to try something different. Civilization will struggle with it's default settings for as long as civilization exists, and our role is fight against them, knowing the fight is never over.
For what it's worth, Americans still have access to opposing viewpoints. You can view Press TV, Russia Today, etc. Authoritarian states will ban completely access to news it doesn't want its population to read

The benefits of QUIC / HTTP/3 have been extremely well defined as-

-higher latency connections.

-packet loss under multiplexing scenarios / suboptimal connections (e.g. mobile).

These are the situations where it shines and runs away from HTTP/2. And this has been the promised advantage from the outset, and is literally the problem it is designed to solve.

Given that the linked paper mentions the word latency once in an irrelevant context, I think that's telling. Of course there is no advantage -- and in fact is an expected disadvantage -- when your client and server are 0ms from each other with 0% packet loss. Now put them 100ms from each other with 5% packet loss/reordering/retransmission and multiplexing.
Very interesting. The article states that

> Really it's hard to point to any popular open-source tools that fully support HTTP/3: rollout has barely even started.

But isn’t Caddy a widely used reverse proxy with HTTP/3 support? Or what features are missing?

From my educated guess, A single 4090 can crack it around ~140, since there will be some scaling losses. Also, this is an optimistic take since we don't expect the VRAM won't have any bit-flip events during this time, under load.

If you can have 10 Tesla cards, the number will be a bit shorter (around 14, I guess), since NVLink is much more efficient and creates a mesh between cards without hitting the PCIe.

The Rails documentation has lots of info about this: https://guides.rubyonrails.org/tuning_performance_for_deploy...

Concurrency support is missing from the language syntax and this particular library as a concept. This is by design, to not distract from beautiful code. Your request will make zero progress and take up memory while waiting for the LLM answer. Other threads might make progress on other requests, but in real world deployments this will be a handful (<10). This server will get 10s of requests per second when something written in JS or Go will get many 1000s.

It’s amazing how the Ruby community argues against their own docs and doesn’t acknowledge the design choices their language creators have made.

Who’s abandoning them? They asked for small government and unchecked corporate power. Everyone on the left wants to deal with these hard problems, but you can’t force it on them.

This [1] is the answer and I have no control over it. It works on LUKS2 but not dm-crypt plain which I use for external backups as it is headerless and does not expose cipher and hash or that there is explicitly encrypted data despite the fact one can infer. There was talk of removing the restriction and maybe everything I said is no longer correct by now. I have not tested it in a while. The discussion was around adding the option 'cryptsetup --allow-discards' for dm-crypt plain instead of just LUKS2.

The nicest feature of HTTP/3 is that it is UDP based, and thus does not allow so much interception by the malicious ISPs.

Hey, heads up. It's now 2025, machines have mastered language, displaying better linguistic abilities than those of a large percentage of the population. They also do so using a small fraction of the neurons and synapses found in the human brain, despite being able to express themselves in tens or hundreds of languages and across an extremely wide range of subjects (much beyond the average general knowledge of human beings), dispelling the myth that artificial neurons are much less powerful than the real ones.
A "few extra ms" is up to 3 roundtrips difference, that's easily noticeable by humans on cellular.

For all the CPU optimisations we're doing, cutting out a 50ms roundtrip for establishing a HTTP connection feels like a great area to optimize performance.
And I didn't say this was about Rust the language. I said many times it's not OK for you to generalize an entire community of hard-working people. It will never be OK.

What is actually funny in our exchanges is that I don't even actively work with Rust anymore. I work with multiple languages, it included. I've met very smart, humble and fairly hardcore [Rust] devs from whom I learned a lot and got severely humbled as a result (as I was under the illusion that there's not much more I could learn in programming back then).

My other comments are fairly trivial English. Surely you can very easily make something out of them.

I'll bite: Explain yourself.

Also, for context, my question was posed because the idea of "particle number" as well as "quantum states of particles (which are countable) represented in a Fock space" and in general the idea of particles are, like, page 2 of any QFT textbook. It doesn't approximate anything in the theory. Creation and annihilation of particles (and hence the well-defined concept of a particle) is fundamental to the construction of the theory itself, perturbative or not.

The stock may have suffered but Cisco as a company has been consistently profitable and dependable partly due to its financial management.

They are a great example of why you don't need an engineer to lead a very successful engineering company.

Yeah I agree with the last paragraph.

For rasterization to be useful it must approximately do the same thing that light does in the real world. Therefore rasterization that wants to get closer and closer to the real world will have to emulate more and more of the real world.

It will have to cast exactly the rays that rasterization is hoping to avoid.

Conspiracy theorist in me thinks that since it was a games console, the NSA didn't mandate backdoors, so MS software and hardware security guys could just make the toughest hardware and software they could dream of. Sprinkled with a decent serving of luck.

So the Xbox360 was essentially a playground for MS hypervisor team, without needing to worry about national security or interference.

So they left after the Edict of Fontainebleau.
