    @mcdanlj @KF0UNK I can just imagine identifying VORs without even looking at the chart. "Charlie, November, Xray - okay Corona good to go", NAV sound off.

    What is a good keyboard with a 100% pitch? My Steelseries is dying - not registering keystrokes reliably anymore. Also, it's a 96% pitch keyboard and I hate that.

    @sun @nuko I enjoy it greatly. Way better than C++ and D.

    Now, I still remember learning and it noticing that for a language that young it had a surprising amount of warts. And it was like that from Day One. But then I also remember how much Python had to evolve (xrange lol). So yeah, Go had to add a whole new type to represent IP address, because they forgot to make the original one comparable. But it's insignificant next to the power of the force, I mean, next to C++ references and STL. Or D's templates for that matter. Go is a perfect language for someone of my limited cognitive capacity.

    TBF the demise of GOHOME made the biggest contribution to my acceptance of Go. When it became possible to store source where I want, check them into git, and use Makefiles, things changed completely.

    @sun @sendpaws @zaitcev One thing makes the kind of rage about this. The original IBM BladeCenter had a normal VNC. I used that. It was before Vinagre became widespread, but a basic VNC client worked. There was a way to supply ISOs with something like NFS too. But they switched to that retarded Java applet thing later. Enshittification hasn't began yesterday.

    @foxhkron It is the boy cries wolf fallacy. It never happened ... until now.

    I'm not saying that the contemporary AI is going to be different, given that "prompt engineers" already exist.

    I have a printout in my collection that came from a Russian domestic mainframe computer BESM-6. The quality of the print is rather underwhelming, it is barely legible.

    Fedora today:

    dnf update
    reboot
    all is good
    go get coffee
    come back the screen is blank
    does not wake up
    the system is completely okay otherwise, but the screen is blank

    This is basically a great incentive to NEVER UPDATE. Fedora tend to test their releases, but once the release is out of the door, updates drag in all sort of regressions. They have absolutely no checks from contaminating after a release.

    Riddle me this: what is the point of Flatpak if the images have dependencies? It's no different from an RPM! So why?

    At least when an AppImage is distributed, you just run the image and you get a running application. The container image contains everything. But Flatpak does not!

    @sun @Rocket Bro...

    I remember that some time around 1991 I mentioned this UNIX thing to Prof. M.V. Makarov-Zemlyanski and the conversation somehow ended on the topic of the of the text files with EOL delimiters. Maybe he wanted to re-encode e-mail on the fly, I don't remember precisely.

    Either way, I said, "oh by the way, we also have tabs that you have to expand if you do this". And he said, "I suppose I could... where is the tab column table?" And I'm like... uhh... just generate the table at every 8th position please, Professor? He then gave me the meme look (30 years before the meme).

    @sun @pwm Really now?

    To be honest, the accumulated cruft of TLS offload, firewall-cmd, namespaces, systemd-resolvd, DNSSEC, and such made the modern networking a fairly unfun mess. But you don't have to comply, within your own network.

    The speed of modern CPUs that we take for granted comes from these sources:
    - a high performance DRAM controller
    - a large hierarchical cache
    - out-of-order execution
    - super-scalar or parallel execution
    - a high clock rate
    - all of this is underpinned by a small feature size process and a large gate budget

    A typical RISC-V aims for a low cost implementation that lacks these elements. Without them, you're basically making a 200 MHz, 5 to 10 pipeline stage CPU. I'm generalizing it a lot, but you're ending with something like MicroSPARC-II or thereabout.

    I heard about high performance RISC-V implementations aimed at hyperscalers, but I've never seen one in person.

    I am in a bad place with my home network. I made a WiFi, where Linux and MacOS work, but Android does not. Says there's no connectivity.

    Of course, connectivity is just fine, and applications work when they do not care about that. For example, WatsUp simply connects where it wants. But Chrome is too polite for that and refuses to try.

    A tcpdump shows that Android connects, attempts SSDP (which never worked in my networks), then pokers the router (sic) with HTTP, and then reports the there's no connectivity. All Android devices behave the same way.

    Banging my head figuratively.

    @pid_eins It all sounded very good until the last moment. The whole point if downloading the whole thing is to let the thing be stored compressed or shared in unlimited ways. Once you start downloading block-by-block, you're throwing it all out the window. Might was well just back the root with that image on a translucent (CoW) filesystem or something.

    TIL that generics and/or templates can cause a measurable code bloat at scale. We are talking tens and possibly hundreds of megabytes, depending how many classes you have. I operated under an assumption that even for a big project you'd only loose a meg or two, and storage is measured in terabytes anyway. But even in the world of 100GbE senselessly large binaries cause issues when you have to deploy to thousands of nodes.

    @penguin42 It's the Boris Babayan's CPU that MCST developed when I worked there. It morphed into Elbrus 2000 (E2K).

    @penguin42 Narch and E2K have a fully hardware FP, which inherits from Elbrus 3, modified for IEEE 754. But of course their gate budget was much larger than for pioneering RISC CPUs of the late 1980s.
