It's not "some obscure module" that is written in Rust. Just some examples I know of: - Chrome currently uses https://github.com/googlefonts/fontations to implement its font handling, and text is the main thing on most…
Sounds like milliseconds since the page says > Benchmarked on the Linux kernel's 1.48M commits, 96K files, our engine returns the first search results in under 20 ms.
I agree that Social Security is not plain welfare, but it has significant welfare components. Simplifying some, you get back something like 90% of the first $15,432 income per year but only 32% of income above that up…
Ubuntu switched to the Paragon NTFS driver by default. When I upgraded to kernel 6.5 (I think) from Ubuntu, I started getting frequent kernel panics, like every day. Soon, I noticed that I couldn't even compile a Rust…
No, ICE did not kill those people. I looked through the latest six this year. Two were suicides (one suicide was of a man who had state charges against him for several crimes including child molestation), one was…
But sunscreen doesn't stop all damage to skin. I spent weekdays working inside on a computer, then sometimes spent summer weekends outside in the sun. I get sunburned easily, sometimes in like 10 minutes of direct sun.…
> Older computers usually guzzle power, especially if you look at the absolutely awful Pentium4 systems. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Intel_Pentium_4_proces... The Northwood chips were 50 to 70 W. HT chips and…
Besides the other GUI libraries people have mentioned, there is also Eto: https://github.com/picoe/Eto
"it certainly will eventually" - I think even that is underselling how unlikely it is for Git 256-bit hashes to collide. I calculated (taking into account the birthday paradox), that even if 8 billion people on Earth…
I hadn't heard that term before. I'll search for it. Thanks!
All right, I'll search for those and read about them. It's unfortunate when a project I've worked on for a while is never used, but at least nice when I learned something from writing it. Thanks!
I'm interested in using LDPC (or Turbo Codes) in software for error correction, but most of the resources I've found only cover soft-decision LDPC. When I've found LDPC papers, it's hard for me to know how efficient the…
I don't think the numbers are accurate in the quantity of gas. Since kWh and BTU are both units of energy, finding the cf of gas is unnecessary (assuming the efficiency numbers are correct). 1 kWh = 3.6 megajoules and 1…
