I still think noalias-by-default is the way to fix this. https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/1108 You get all the benefits of Zig being able to choose the function ABI, but if th…

How is it impossible? I would think an MD5 quine exists with probability approaching 1 as the size of the document grows to infinity. Think about the reduced problem: 1. a document…

In a way that means the copyright lobbyists have won. You don't find the list interesting now, but 14+14 years after 1928 you would have. A lot of it would still be fresh in our co…

So instead of "There is a good identity", GP should have said "There are about 200 good identities around the world, but if your country happens to not have a single unified ID sys…

I'd never use an account someone else made for me either. Who knows if after you created it, you added some recovery questions or a recovery email or saved the login cookie or who …

The problem with benchmarking that claim is there's no one true "json decoder" that everyone uses. You choose one based on your language -- JSON.stringify if you're using JS, serde…

> There is no fair or private use of hyper-realistic fake money. What about every movie ever made where two people trade a briefcase full of cash?

Indeed. It's a multistep process, like changing the oil in your car. Step 1. drain the old oil Step 2. pour in the new oil If you skip step 2 and damage your car, it doesn't mean o…

I don't know what I'd do if Firefox died. Maybe it's time Firefox starts diversifying itself away from Mozilla.

I had the opposite thought -- I bet the new color mixing will increase payload size. Which of these would you rather send over the wire? A) color-mix(in srgb, var(--primary-color),…

This is just begging the question: surely you don't watch videos while driving? And if you just want the audio, there are music-focused YT apps (ViMusic, or like sibling said, YMus…

fwiw electric cars date back to the late 1800s. There's no reason old ideas can't work well with new tech. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_car#Early_development...

Definitely the two columns for me. It's super annoying skimming a paper and having to scroll down and back up again in a zig-zag pattern.

It's useful even without async too. Our codebase has some trait methods that return boxed iterators and I'm very much looking forward to switching them to impl Iterator instead.

So this is targeted at people who don't want to set up syncthing? What I like about Obsidian is it's literally just a bunch of markdown files, you can use them anywhere. With Notes…
