What is the roadmap to ML on FreeBSD? From what I could find, apparently neither CUDA nor ROCm is supported? And there are no short-term plans to address the lack of hardware suppo…

Running a ~20Kloc 0.16 Zig in prod, compiled and deployed as DebugSafe. No issues, superstable. This was rewrite of Node.js/Typescript computation module, and we chose Zig over Rus…

That will lead to the same set of problems currently manifested in bit torrent'ing: 1. You'll have to expose a port externally. God only knows who will attempt to take over it. 2. …

Don't forget to post the link here!

No sir, but you have the honor of being the first!

Could you please describe your remote access software stack in more details? What software/versions did you find more useful? Can you connect e.g. from Windows to Linux and vice ve…

I've been using KDE-Plasma on Wayland (Debian 13) since release as a daily driver, and I'm happy to report that it is super stable, has no problems with waking up from suspend and …

Can we get an atom or RSS feed for that blog, so it would be possible to check for future posts?

I generally recommend to exit either via :xa (save all & exit) or :qa! (discard all and exit), bound to ZZ or ZA respectively. If you exit via :q or :wq, it just closes the current…

It's not really a lie, it's so-called "make-belief", which entrepreneurs exude in order to justify their own time and money investment, as well as spreading it to the army of emplo…

The powertrain warranty is usually 5 years or 60K miles. Bumper-to-bumper warranty is around 3 years, I think. I would be OK with the loan for as long as powertrain is covered, at …

Because DOS relied on BIOS interrupt 10h to handle I/O: mov si, GREETINGS_STRING print_loop: lodsb ; Load next byte into AL, advance SI cmp al, 0 ; Check for null terminator je don…

If the flush (syscall) fails, it's not possible to recover in user space, therefore the only sensible option is to abort() immediately. It's not even safe to perror("Mayday, mayday…

Why is he wrong? Here's an excerpt from the close(2) syscall description: RETURN VALUE close() returns zero on success. On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set to indicate the e…

It's still not clear to me how you can make two comptime closures with different contents and pass those as a functor into the same function. It needs to have a sort of VTable to i…

I'm afraid to host my web sites myself simply because I don't trust my ISP. It's rather reliable, but it does go down ~once a quarter, and relying on them would be highly inconveni…

And I'm telling you that your position is suboptimal and in the long term will lead you nowhere. You won't be able to switch any noticeable number of consumers away from Amazon by …

There are well-known ways to extract Amazon books as PDFs, iTunes videos as DRM-free video files (with subtitles and audio tracks!), download youtube videos and movies, etc. Plenty…

What is the purpose of DisposableStack.move()? Can it be used to transfer the collected .defer() callbacks entirely out of the current scope, e.g. up the call stack? Probably would…

That still requires the usage of dev tools and linear source code mapping between the original and the generated WASM, correct? Would it be possible to avoid dev tools, and impleme…

Sadly, no, I'd like to write a ~Prolog interpreter (compiler into WASM that would dynamically replace parts of the implementation as source code evolves), and have the debugger and…

Is it possible to "instrument" the WASM code to enable in-process debugging? In other words, would it be possible to generate WASM based off some input string (my custom language) …
