No mention of replacing the weird-ass emacs thing on [ with proper vim bindings?

If you are making brandy from clarified wine, it probably separates better than rotten grape mash.

It is still a continuum with some methanol molecules likely remaining even in the tails.

For all intents and purposes, the distiller's rule of thumb of throwing away the angels' share is still going to work because low methanol concentrations are never an issue —for the antidote for methanol is ethanol.

And it is the Chinese doing it because virtually 100% of all chips are made in China and Taiwan.

It is probably true that more average C programs can be built with plain Makefiles or even without a Makefile than C++, though.

You can of course add dependencies on configure scripts, m4, cmake, go, python or rust when building a plain self-contained C program and indeed many do.

My grandma used the formal address when reminiscing about going to the bakery when she was young but in the present she would use the familiar form and even the clerks would use a fake formal at best if they were feeling particularly grateful for having a job that day.

It signals that the speaker doesn't understand that the two are different languages with very different communities.

I don't really think that C users are entirely immune to dependency hell, if that's what OP meant, though. It is orthogonal.

As a user, I do believe it sucks when you depend on something that is not included by default on all target platforms(and you fail to include it and maintain it within your source tree*).

Looking at syscalls.h, it looks like it abstracts the platform details, for example.

Is SYSTEM for amd64 source-compatible with the riscv version?

Still, a win does signal a dumb process behind the trade as the smart move would be to hedge with future options and/or futures.

But then again, maybe they did hedge the trade and it's just not the right time or place to report it.

I doubt most models refuse providing recipes without 0 risk of death.

LLMs are —if anything— ridiculously proficient at making random code compile.

What was your point again?

A truly uncensored model is impossible as human societies exist under various censorship regimes, anyways.

I do use LLMs to learn about new subjects but we already only bill 10% for "coding" and that's inflating it to cover other parts.

I can't imagine that slopping it up would be a great decision. Having alien code that no one ever understood between a bug report and a solution. Anthropic isn't going to give us money for our lost contracts, is it?

For soft real-time, you basically only need low latency.

Threads with priorities, synchronization primitives and some way of handling interrupts is generally considered good enough.

From the description, this sounds like the kind of RTOS that runs most embedded RT applications currently if perhaps a bit heavier in features than the average with filesystem and networking support.

To be fair to the Inca, I didn't expect the night–vision–equipped Spanish Inquisition, either.

The minute the internet dies for good, the chat bots will run half-locally and request payments to stop recommending VRAM enlarging pills.

At the time it felt like culture shock to my own 17yo self —almost as much as the party creatures— but now I see it as the healthy life strategy that it is.

Not just an app but someone set up us the bomb!?
