I arrived at fish selling place at 15:00, he was collecting fishes back. I laughed and said something like “oh I thought I missed closing time!”. No answer, waited a minute, still no answer, then I left :( (Sweden)

I mean it isn’t the bus case, and I can understand the reasons, still may be put a sticker around telling the rules. But this kind of experience is there, no denying it…

One could stack them.

xor should toggle?

Incorporated a cli AI to my daily work. Just impressive, was working on some networking code, I could think of 100 ways to stress test it, then I ‘prompted’? AI to implement those ideas, found many issues, hangs. Shared agent those, asked it to add prints, retest, improve my implementation. Now I got a good solution in a day. Previously this would take a week at least with my worrying about all the things I could test, improve…

Good question, if it is such.

We keep a rabbit indoors, free roaming in the house, now for 7 years, I expect he will do 10+

Would you prefer to live freely for 6 months or have a hopefully comfortable life for ten times more. Before anyone jumping to say “freedom!” why don’t you do it already? Why are you keeping your body prisoner indoors?

How do you measure/calculate 6GB/s?

For me it is a state of mind.

I remember asking to my friend how do you use ‘nc’ in Linux and he answering “type ‘mc’”.

I might miss visual aspects of CRTs, but I mean most of them had a coil sound or some kind of cracking sound. May be as TVs, screens for gaming consoles they were fun, but as monitors I don’t miss the heat burning my face.

Similar…

I think it is because you intuitively learn that you need to have some buffer of energy for crises.

I get that some families are lucky but these are the ages that health problems and losses starts to show up. Even more for your parents. Every year it is something…

African or European swallow?

I totally see what you mean but after 30 years of experience, I couldn’t put it that way. Even the simplest editor and a command line was enough for the “hello world!”.

Probably same years… whenever we got a new computer I was removing OS shipped and installing a previous MS OS. Win3.1? Nah I want DOS, win95 nah… I want 3.1. That’s where my tools were.

Funny thing I still use win10.

You dip bread sticks to hummus, if anyone is having hard time to visualize this…

BBC micro:bit?

I think there is some exaggeration

> obviously aimed at the money laundering business

Places also provide facade to some social networks. They can keep relatives having a job, can act like a store front for doing whatever deal.

I accept they don’t survive by just serving food, but some of it basically just bad business or some guys to have a legit place for other activities.

I wasn’t aware of this, was still a teenager at that time. May be because of this I was never impressed with later years…

Trying to provide a perspective..

Let’s say because of your genetics, you can enjoy playing basketball, and you do that, and you have fun doing that, you get better at it… but that’s that, it won’t be that easy for you with other subjects or even get to next level at basketball. Then you need to submit to discipline… or are you willing to wait for things to become fun?

> pays off

That’s why it is important to chase things you are curious about, then you don’t need to wait for some return…

Sounds like that, funny thing I still can’t be sure…

I was at Sony Ericsson integrating it 2008-2010.

> European VM providers

Now I can’t remember the name of that company from Switzerland…

They did some early work on dalvik but it didn’t fly commercially iirc…

This story is in “surely you are joking mr. Feynman” or “what do you care what does other people think?”.

When they ask him to do something not concrete, that was his answer :) so he was preferring fetching pencils to thinking about applications of some technology…

Genuinely asking - not directly to OP of course, wasn’t this how people were playing the game when you were kids? Not as rigorous, but you intuitively try offsets to get lucky and find the number in fewer tries?

Isn’t this like a case of “Ship of Theseus”?

I realized with all the rhel systems I’m using, we are never using default toolchains on them. Just use those old systems to run stuff, even newer toolchains.

I mean these compilers build all these SW stacks, even this very browser I’m using, where are these correctness issues you are talking about?

No.

Main post is about a C compiler, post I responded is saying

> When your computer was anemic, and could barely do the tasks required for it

which I could only interpret as a machine that can run a single process at a time, so not really about gpus or what.
