If you are talking about the Fennec browser (i.e. Firefox on android), this link is not pointing to that.

Thank you for the clarification. Very cool project!

I’m not really an OS guy, so forgive me if this question has an obvious answer. When a thread migrates, it keeps its stack and register, thus any data contained within this can be used in the destination process (correct me if I’m wrong). Thus sending a message could be as simple as migrating a thread and having that thread copy data from its registers or stack memory to the current process’s memory space. However, how does the thread find process-specific addresses and handles (e.g. a mutex)? For example, I’m picturing a scenario where you are implementing an MPI library and want to use thread migration to send (small) messages from one local process to another. The thread orchestrating the send simply loads the data from memory and migrates, but how will it know where to store the data to? Would there need to be a data structure stored in a fix offset in memory that contains the destination address of the receiving process?

I think you have it backwards. Coding games is complicated, and that’s why AI can’t be used to code them effectively.

I’ve been playing Sekiro lately. While it’s not generally on the top of “immersive games” lists, I find it immersive because of how cool the gameplay makes you feel. When you are just completely focused on timing each parry and reading the attacks of your enemy, it makes me feel like I’m actually in the game doing these feats. Combine that with the fact there are few cutscenes and little dialogue, and I’d say it feels pretty immersive.

It’s also the basis for a popular hardwaregeneration language, chisel. No clue why they chose it

I don’t think engineers need encouragement to be cynical. More often engineers need to lighten up.

You got a source for that last sentence? I’m inclined to degree, but I’d love to see a a concrete explanation proving it.

Biggest con of KDE + Krohnkite (to me) is no text-based config. I really have no desire to pour through the GUI to set up all my keybinds. I’ve tried this setup before, and honestly I mostly like it. However anytime I want to change something I just hate having to click through a menu with my mouse. The search bar helps, but often you’ll spend a lot of time guessing what the devs decided to name a setting. I went back to Sway and have no regrets. Though I’ll admit I wish there was something that was basically Sway with the benefits you mentioned here.

The IEEE standard actually does not dictate a rounding policy

kitty. The ssh kitten is enough reason to use it. I work ob a lot of different systems that require OTP. Using the ssh kitten I can type the OTP once and can spawn new terminals that ssh and cd to the remote direvtory without logging in again. Obviosly the tabs and window panes are are a must too. There’s tons of other useful features that I like, like using hints to select nunbers, filenames, urls, etc in the terminal output.

with kitty you can open a new terminal session that sets it’s cwd to the remote directory of the server you’re ssh’d into. Honestly the only thing I can think of that termux can do that kitty can’t is saving sessions

Oof, programmers calling LLMs “AI” - that’s embarrassing

…but LLMs quite literally come from the field of computer science that is referred to as “AI.” What are they supposed to call it? I’m not a fan of the technology either, but seems like you’re just projecting your disdain for ChatGPT.

I would argue that it is better to have two separate drives for the installation. It simplifies things for non tech savvy people, and I believe Windows has less of an opportunity to mess with your linux install, such as messing with the efi partition.
