D1 is built using Durable Objects - so in theory DO could be faster.

AFAIK when you call D1 it's Worker > D1 (Durable Object) > local storage.

So using DO directly would just be DO > local storage.

I believe the connection between worker and D1 is the painful part, requiring multiple round trips.

I think my big problem is: I need a native terminal program, and I'm almost always using a terminal for something while I'm using Emacs. Which means I can't dedicate a whole screen to Emacs.

I don't have much experience with writing a custom gcc backend, but my experience with LLVM is that its model ends up being a somewhat poor fit for smaller or weirder architectures. For example, LLVM has this annoying tendency to really aggressively promote the size of everything--if you have a 32-bit core with 64-bit memory indexing, LLVM tends to make anything that eventually becomes a memory index a 64-bit computation, even if it would be more efficient to keep everything as 32-bit.

Was show shocked/disappointed when I went to China. It was such a more welcoming experience every time I have come back to the USA. I expected China to be the one that felt more authoritarian. Coming back from the border with Canada after camping it was known that if you simply annoyed border patrol they would make you unpack all of your camping gear and waste 3-4 hours (I'm talking about known among young families with kids that just want to go camping).

From my experience as an American I have never had the kind of hostility, the power trip, the 'why are you worthy to be here' that I receive coming home be experienced in any other nation.

GCC still for Linux distributions using glibc or any other library with many "GCCisms". Also, I'm not sure whether or not Clang is ABI compatible enough for enterprise customers with some rather extreme backwards compatibility requirements. Still, I can imagine a future where glibc can be built with Clang, possibly even one where llvm-libc is "good enough" for many users.
It's for sure less questionable than the current proposition of letting a handful of billionaires exploit the effort of millions of workers, without permission and completely disregarding the law, just for the sake of accumulating more power and more billions.

You can find a general overview for the language at hand in "The rust reference"[1]. For a more formal document, you can have a look in to the ferroscene language specification list of undefined behaviour[2] section. From there you can jump to different section, and see legality rules, and undefined behavior sections for each.

The ferroscene language spec was recently donated to the rust foundation.

Sure, but AFAIK S3’s multi-region capabilities are quite far behind GCS’s.

S3 offers some multi-region replication facilities, but as far as I’ve seen they all come at the cost of inconsistent reads - which greatly complicates application code. GCS dual-region buckets offer strongly consistent metadata reads across multiple regions, transparently fetch data from the source region where necessary, and offer clear SLAs for replication. I don’t think the S3 offerings are comparable. But maybe I’m wrong - I’d love more competition here!

Solar energy can be captured only by living beings that have reached a relatively high complexity after a long evolution.

In places with so little solar energy, living beings might never develop means for capturing it.

For the appearance of life, a source of internal heat for the planet or satellite is a necessary condition.

As another poster has mentioned, in the big satellites of the giant planets such a source of internal heat exists, because of the tidal forces which cause internal friction.

For the internal heat to be able to provide energy for life forms, there must exist some kind of volcanism that cycles matter between the interior and the exterior of the satellite or planet, so that substances that were in chemical equilibrium at higher temperatures are brought to lower temperatures, where they are no longer in chemical equilibrium, which can provide the energy for the synthesis of complex organic molecules.

(On Earth, the principal source of energy for the bacteria that do not depend on solar energy has its origin in the iron(II) ions from the mantle and lower crust of the Earth, which are brought by volcanism at the surface, where they are no longer in chemical equilibrium with water, so they are oxidized by water to Fe(III) ions, i.e. rust, liberating elemental hydrogen from the water, which can be consumed by bacteria and combined with carbon dioxide into organic substances, without needing any other source of energy. When rocks are recycled by subduction into the mantle, because of the high temperatures the iron ions are reduced again to Fe(II) ions, completing the cycle by consuming a certain amount of internal heat.)
COBOL was the best attempt that they could get to in the 1960s. It's the entire reason COBOL has things like paragraphs, things end with periods, etc. They wanted as much of an "English-like syntax" as possible.

The reason it looks so odd today is that so much of modern software is instead the intellectual heir of C.

And yeah, the "skill cap" of describing things is theoretically infinite. My point was this has been tried before and we don't yet know how the actual limitations of an LLM come close to that ideal. People have been trying for decades to describe things in English that still ultimately need to be described in code for them to work; that's why the software industry exists in the first place.

How so? Even in a perfectly egalitarian world, where no one had to compete for food or resources, in art, there would still be a competition for attention and time.
Hm, is it so much easier to write an LLVM back-end than a GCC back-end? I haven't looked into GCC's code gen infrastructure that much, but I looked into making a new back-end to LLVM some time ago and it seemed extremely complex and entirely undocumented. All guidance I found on it basically amounted to, "copy an existing back-end and bang it against a rock until you've made it generate the machine code you need". And it certainly wasn't a case of having clean and simple enough code to make documentation unnecessary. It would honestly surprise me if GCC is more difficult to add a back-end to.

> You can study histories and interviews from the late Cold War about just how much of a bloodbath the NATO militaries expected a Russian invasion of West Germany to be.

*With the full benefit of hindsight*, most experts that I have read seem to agree that (ignoring nuclear weapons and staying completely conventional) the Russians were as a whole stronger on land in Europe than the west up until the mid-1970s, when western technological advancements started to remove the numbers advantages and were hard for the economically stagnating communist countries to keep up with. By the mid 1980s, the only real direct advantage the soviets had was a closer supply line than the bulk of NATO's power, which was the USA.

There are records showing the shock that Soviet military experts had at the effectiveness of the western stealth and jamming equipment that was used in the 1991 Gulf War (that was waged right at the tail end of the USSR's existence). It's much more regarded now that had a full blown NATO/Warsaw pact conflict occurred in the 1980s, the Soviets would have likely lost had they not effectively destroyed NATO's air power early on, though to be fair most experts in the west weren't as sure just how effective their kit would end up being.

Even taking air power out of the equation, the armoured kill ratios would have favoured NATO if it was even 1/4 the ratio it was against the Iraqis. Again here, the only advantage the Soviets would have had was if they got complete surprise before NATO could mobilise.

> NATO would have been fighting them AND the entire Warsaw Pact (East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Poland et al).

There are mixed signals in the archives we have access to about how well (or more accurately reliable) a good chunk of the Warsaw Pact would have been if the cold war turned hot. Half the Red Army's presence in these countries was to threaten them and keep a lid on any revolutions that cropped up (as they did inCzechoslovakia and Hungary as hard violent examples, and Poland in the early 1980s as a soft one). It was very nebulous with Romania in particular that it would participate in anything other than an full "unprovoked attack" from NATO.

> The Soviets wouldn't have had 30+ years of Russian societal decay and would have had the advantage of sheer mass.

There was already decay by the 1980s. Corruption was rife in the Soviet army, especially during and after the Afghanistan conflict. There are many documented cases of Soviet officers in Europe selling fuel earmarked for the army to local civilians, among other things. Many also participated with opium smuggling from Afghanistan to Europe as Soviet officers had some freedom to move around western parts of Germany unmolested, in particular West Berlin.

>Citizenship and residency have both benefits, but also obligations. GP moved to France without a good grasp of the local language.

It's an interesting one. I guess it's a requirement to learn French to naturalize as a French citizen, but there isn't an obligation to speak it if you already are a citizen. It's pretty subtle difference.

On the other hand citizenship in question is not really French citizenship, but European citizenship. It's polite and makes total sense to learn French when living in France, but not a legal requirement. As a citizen of another member state I can just move there and have the same rights as citizens with the sole exception of not voting in the national elections.

How can we reconcile this with how much of the US and world are still living as if it were the 1930s or even 1850s?

Travel 75 to 150 miles outside of a US city and it will feel like time travel. If so much is still 100 years behind, how will civilization so broadly adopt something that is yet more decades into the future?

I got into starlink debates with people during hurricane helene. Folks were glowing over how people just needed internet. Reality, internet meant fuck all when what you needed was someone with a chainsaw, a generator, heater, blankets, diapers and food.

Which is to say, technology and its importance is a thin veneer on top of organized society. All of which is frail and still has a long way to go to fully penetrate rural communities for even recent technology. At the same time, that spread is less important than it would seem to a technologist. Hence, technology has not uniformly spread everywhere, and ultimately it is not that important. Yet, how will AI, even more futuristic, leap frog this? My money is that rural towns USA will look almost identical in 30 years from now. Many look identical to 100 years ago still.

I think there's another explanation that works just as well to explain the observed behavior:

A large percentage of people genuinely buy into the "just world" fallacy, regardless of whether they consciously recognize this. They believe that if someone is in a position of power, they deserve to have that power.

Of course, many of them also believe that, variously, the world is inherently just, people are inherently good, or the world's structure is ordained by a loving God. Therefore, these people deserving power isn't just Fated, it's also because they're better people. Smarter, better leaders, possessed of the qualities that fit one to rule.

Therefore, "the people in power are smart, have the best interests of the many at heart, and are worth listening to" is effectively axiomatic for a great many people in our society.

In peripheral blood samples. That's important because they show that some of the epigenome changes are concentrated in specific biochemical pathways related to cancer. But, they don't find pathways specific to blood cancers, so I'm really not sure what to make of that. What does it mean that a white blood cell has epigenomic changes similar to those observed in a collection of other studies of colorectal cancer? Honestly, probably not a lot. I'm made even less certain by the finding that the epigenomic changes are strongly concentrated in pathways like "Bacterial infection of epithelial cells". That's quite obviously statistical noise, but there's not much you can do about that when you're doing these population scale biochemical/genetic studies.

They also report that the cannabis smoking group had a statistically significant difference in cigarette smoking, so that's probably a big confounder, along with other lifestyle choices that you might expect between people who report never smoking weed vs those who do.

It's just really really hard to make strong conclusions from a single study like this.

Solid (formerly Wise) files for bankruptcy
Meanwhile, I managed to roast an EEPROM that contained a assembler/disassembler for Z80 by pluging it the wrong way in a weird expansion board for a CPC 6128. It was an expensive Xmas present, I almost passed out when I realized my mistake. I don't remember how old I was when it happened, but definitely not enough to RTFM cautiously.

So I had to stick with Basic until I finally got my first PC. It was the time when one could order floppy disks preloaded with "sharewares" you selected from a catalog. The first and only I order contained A86/D86 [2] and PygmyForth [1]. I picked up a Forth because I saw ads in magazines for Forth systems featuring multitasking and other wonderful things.

I spent a lot of time with those two, and eventually started to program my own Forth interpreter as any sane person should do... I ended up writing a minimal assembler with the help of A86's extensive manual in order to be able to boot my system from a floppy, modify its source with a block editor, and recompile it from scratch, boot sector included. It's sole use ever was to prove myself I could do those "difficult" things.

I guess it depends on whether the sentence is only qualified as "integer" types, but bool is sort of the same way, no? A bool must be either 0 or 1 (false or true), or it's UB.

(And I think for much the same reason, the niche optimization. Option<bool> is 1 B.)

(And for the non-Rustaceans, the only way to get a bool to be not false or true, i.e., not 0 or 1, would be unsafe {} code. Or put differently, not having a bool be "2" is an invariant unsafe code must not violate. (IIRC, at all times, even in unsafe code.))
