Can you clarify how this better helps express swing compared to a piano roll?

So this is about visualisation more than different behaviour? There are still N static notes with a cursor moving from start to end, looping over. It's not clear from the blog. Sti…

Do you have references to objections? I couldn't find any on the lkml threads.

-fplan9-extensions adds even more, it is not an alias: https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-15.2.0/gcc/Unnamed-Fields... One of the link of past discussions was from Apr 2018 and dis…

The Linux Foundation (LF) is sort of this. A non-profit aimed at corporate members to sponsor work on many open-source projects (~900).

> For example, my blog search engine, which indexes on the order of 500,000+ words across 1,000+ documents, can return results in This is odd. Let's do a back-of-the-envelope estim…

I disagree. Applications want to receive/provide a stream (X sample-rate, Y sample format, Z channels) and have it routed to the right destination, that probably is not configured …

I have trouble understanding how people work for such big companies. Of course if the scale is 1000 employees "the company" cannot care about you; it is an institution not a bunch …

I see two differences: (1) the software stack on the server side and (2) I guess there is JS to be sent to the client side for HTMX support(?). Both those things make a difference.…

What about plain HTML & CSS for all the websites where this approach is sufficient? Then apply HTMX or any other approach for the few websites that are and need to be dynamic.

In my MIDI controller case, the "compute state and send update" code takes about 8µs, up to a spike of 15µs. The worst case of the code in article is a sort on each frame on a 100i…

Another way to describe what has been done: implement a pure function and avoid storing additional state. It sounds way less dumb that way. It is not really a pure function but the…

The article from renehersecycles.com does not really agree with your comment, and explains why.

Apparently not. .deb file: http://archive.raspberrypi.org/debian/pool/main/r/rpi-connec... It contains two Go executables in its /usr/bin path: rpi-connect and rpi-connectd.

For reference, sort(1) has -n, --numeric-sort: compare according to string numerical value.

I agree the format is interesting. What are some other examples of short stories about technology, recent or less so?

I do not agree. Commits in my patch series have no link whatsoever with the chronology of my work. I wouldn't call it "Git history" as long as it is the branch I'm working on. It b…

Then use a tree if you need a tree?

Well it has scaled up until now, which is a sign it could fit the scale of almost all software projects.

This is usually called container_of in C projects. It is compile-time safe as well, though the error won't be pretty. Linux, Qemu, musl, U-Boot, iproute2 & uclibc-ng each have a co…

I'm interested in doing the same thing but using PipeWire only. What kind of processing do you use Reaper for?

I've worked on a project that required a bigger swiotlb as well, I don't remember the exact details though. I guess it's not that uncommon, but indeed the default value looks good.…

I see two use cases for a "big" swiotlb buffer: (1) many devices concurrently, as you said, or (2) ring buffers for devices that write continuously. Combine both and you require ev…
