>The actual issue is that Windows and Linux don't properly use a ‘super’ key―while the ‘Win’ key is sitting there uselessly. >These keys are great to use on Mac The use of the supe…

>there is no sharing of objects across threads You can message-pass a pointer if you are sure the referenced object won't be GCed.

You communicate via channels, like in Go. Objects passed through a channel are deep copied. To share an object, you can create an actor thread that owns it, or if you're sure the o…

She literally addresses this in the video you linked: https://youtu.be/UGL_OL3OrCE?t=1757 They spent a lot of effort ensuring that their imaging methods were objective and free of …

This was recently posted on HN. It actually got me thinking how I might write a service like OP's. I wrote a story that became a legend. Then I discovered it wasn’t true: https://w…

They were composing their first Reddit post as they came through the birth canal.

Ok, I got it. They're exactly the same. Either way you'd need to do a second search, because you're trying to differentiate between 3 states: "probably a match", "empty", or "delet…

That's a great point. It's still a possible optimization with a compare-and-swap or if you can determine that you're in a single threaded context.

My argument was only that bringing the cost down would make it easier to build a more reliable P2P network. I doubt that reliability/cost are the main reasons P2P networks aren't m…

Such a compression algorithm could make it much cheaper for the community to volunteer capacity to the network (short-range relays? data storage nodes? crowdfunded cell towers?), w…

WINE + DXVK can pretty much run any modern game (with varying performance).

>81 of the top 100 sites on the web use HTTPS by default I find it disappointing that there are any sites that large that are using HTTP.

I assume there's a similar patch for the Mac client, but this offers no protection for users running the Windows client via WINE.

I don't see the point... QWERTY is great for touch screens, for the same reason it was great for typewriters: common letter combinations are spaced out. Typing with two thumbs on a…

It does matter, because your argument categorically does not apply. Brave is not involved with the distribution of content.

That's not what's happening, though. Brave is not running a streaming video service. They aren't hosting or distributing the content. There's nothing illegal about holding money an…

When I clicked this article, I was expecting to see that someone had gotten Skyrim working with AAlib.
