I believe in the latest (possibly two latest?) releases of Zig you have the option to build a self hosted compiler.

This reads like it was written using a prompt.

It helps when you never question if, as in his own essay describing other ‘bad writers’ weaving falsehoods, you’re the one lying to yourself.

I’d argue that ‘a bunch of additional code’ to solve for memory safety is exactly what you’re doing in the ‘defining memory safety away’ example with Rust or Swift. It’s just code …

It could be a time based clause. Nebula exclusive for two weeks prior to any other upload, etc

IIRC Nebula has an exclusivity clause in their contract not allowing content creators to upload to other platforms, though I could be thinking of CuriosityStream.

Didn’t know the people behind the mp3 format were into tooling for metalworking. Guess it makes sense, it involves a practical application for use of sound, and they are a research…

They shine through my windows at night and are truly horrific. They’re down the entire alleyway behind my place, and a walk to the grocery store at 7pm during the winter makes your…

Listen more than you speak.

Please retain council.

Adding together all the different standards/feature sets a chip supports and then aggregating the bandwidth into a single number is actually a very reasonable way to arrive at an a…

Yeah this is odd. I've taken multiple 10 year old T-Shirts with holes through 10% of them in to the Patagonia store and they've let me walk out with new product off the rack.

Wouldn’t this also imply a lack of Turing completeness, and thus not be good for general purpose computing?

> Without CPUs, we can be freed from the tyranny of the halting problem. Can someone please explain to me what this even means in this context? Serious question.

I think the author raises a good point about how much human time/energy/effort go into creating content for systems that are at best closed loops when it comes to search-ability/di…

I wonder if cosmo libc supports targeting versions.

Made possible using Cosmopolitan Libc. Justine writes some pretty cool software. https://justine.lol/cosmopolitan/index.html

For those unaware of the significance, Every Frame a Painting was a 29 episode video essay series released between 2014 and 2016 on youtube. The channel was widely regarded as one …

Interesting post to wake up to when I'm 7 days into a fast. Glad to be getting back into extended fasting, sad that I, again, have the body type that makes it somewhat of a require…

Yeah, all the research I've read says that fasting is actually preventative when it comes to cancer -- and possibly assists with starving out cancer cells during treatment of the d…

I haven't had that experience, but I usually do longer fasts. My go to for this would be electrolyte levels, which can vary heavily depending on water intake, diet, exercise, suppl…
