I love the transparency that Adafruit is proving on this.
I wonder if any compiler can rewrite that last one into one of the others.
And companies are legal fiction. Meta doesn't remove a post, a person does. Or maybe some software built by a person. A person from a government told a person at Meta to block it, and that person did (probably by…
Well, I haven't actually tried the asm.js approach for this, so maybe I'm missing something. But since asm.js is just (a subset of) javascript, I assumed I could just pass ArrayBuffers around. With wasm, I could pass a…
I personally think this is a mistake. But I'm not sure how much it matters. It's not like a lot of people were using asm.js still AFAIK. But wasm is too isolated from javascript. From my limited use of it, I was…
It's not clear to me from that post how they will be spending the money they'll save by firing 60% of our R&D team. Could someone explain it? If you have a lot of new stuff to build, and if you're not currently losing…
Would be nice if more people were focus on fixing these issues instead of just a bunch of "we already know", and making fun up the tone of the site. Thanks op for reminding us of the privacy issues with our browsers.…
That sounds like it wouldn't scale. If everyone did it, then it would just delay things.
The number 42 is also a mathematical symbol we can observe. (Or two symbols, depending on how you want to define symbol). You can observe the symbol. You can observe 42 of some object, 42 sheep for example. You can…
Why would you name yourself Warp without any connection to OS/2?
To me, one of the big features of markdown is it's half WYSIWYG. By that I mean, the basics reuse the way we faked formatting to do real formatting. The input is (usually) perfectly readable on its own. Even if you…
Somewhat related, this book is pretty good: https://ethanmarcotte.com/books/you-deserve-a-tech-union/ It answers a lot of the questions I see being asked in this thread.
The company you work for almost always has more power in negotiations than you do. (For some hypothetical "you".) The bigger the company is, the more power they have typically. If you want to make more money or get…
For a open source project like SDL is, for something like this, it's usually a matter of how invasive it is, and how likely the contributors seem to stick around and maintain it. Different projects have different…
That's deplorable. We probably need to dig one or more levels deeper though. What changed to enable and popularized these bad business practices?
But what would have happened if they weren't able to get Microsoft's attention through an outside channel (this site) and had to go through the normal process? I'm glad it was resolved quickly for WireGuard, but I'm…

Besides Cargo, you might want to take a look at Python's pyproject.toml standard. https://packaging.python.org/en/latest/guides/writing-pyproj... It's similar, but designed for an existing ecosystem. Cargo is designed…
Nice. I have been thinking of making something similar. Now hopefully I don't have to! Not sure how big your plans are. My thoughts would be to start as a cmake generator but to eventually replace it. Maybe optionally.…
I've only interacted with him a couple of times, years ago, but he was very helpful and accepted my MR.
When the government imposes these rules, this is an outcome they callously ignore. Sure, we can rightly criticize the author for their abuse towards this working class government employee. But then to some degree we're…
There's not a body inside Chuck Norris's casket, there's just a fist.
I don't get it. Why buy Astral? Why not just fund it? Why not just hire the company to do whatever work you want to get out of the team as part of the merger? Why buy, when they can rent? (Not to mention, multiple…
Maybe there's a gap in my knowledge of notation, but I was confused by: > Let’s define the Lagrange basis functions It looks like you defined `l_i(x)` as a piecewise function or a step function. But then you show with…
Last I heard, it's still legally called the Department of Defense. But anyway, I guess the question is, will any other big AI companies stand with them? It's what needs to happen, but I am not hopeful.
