  • How do I discover the Pixelfed content that is out there when so many big instances block exploration?

    Jump

  • But what if I want to be on a small instance or even self-host? Then I cannot see any potentially appealing hashtags because I do not start with a large library of locally downloaded content.

  • Yeah, I have to say that Lemmy has been a pretty great experience so far! 😀

  • But if a hashtag has not made its way over to my instance, then it effectively does not exist to me. Even if I do see it show up and decide I want to see more content related to it, if said content has not ever made its way over to my instance then I am still left out. The great thing about being able about able to check out what is on other instances is that I am no longer restricted to whatever the people on my instance are interested in.

    This a completely different experience from Lemmy, where I was immediately able to go to a bunch of different instances, look through their communities, and go: "I want to subscribe to this one, this one, and this one!"

  • Parse, Don’t Validate AKA Some C Safety Tips

    Jump

  • It is crazy to go to all of the extra trouble of dealing with an additional pointer for the email_t type, when it is just a struct that is a simple wrapper around a char * that could be passed around directly; a lot of the code in this example is just for dealing with having to manage the lifetime of the extra email_t allocation, which seems like an unnecessary hoop to jump through.

  • It is true that I personally do not find most of her recent political comics to be particularly funny or insightful--which is fine, she does not have to draw to satisfy me--but there are plenty of her comics which are not about politics but about cats or silly reflections on life, especially before Trump got elected.

    So in short, thank you very much for your comment because it totally inspired me to check this person out and find comics of theirs that I enjoyed! 😀

  • Adopting the FLS

    Jump

  • Indeed, it would seem that the proper thing to say now is that Rust is merging in the FLS language specification.

  • Honestly, I felt that the writers also underserved Worf a bit as well. In TNG, he was (or at least, eventually grew into) a consummate professional. In DS9, it seemed like they took this earned sense of professionalism away from him and turned him into a stereotypical Klingon rage machine who was always on the brink of losing control.

  • In fairness, the deer population is way out of control, so I'm just doing my part to reduce it.

  • Another Round Of Rust Compiler Improvements Merged For GCC 15.1

    Jump

  • It's not really an architecture that is intended to map into anything in existing hardware, but having said that, Mill Computing is working on a new extremely unconventional architecture that is a lot closer to this; you can read more about it here, and specifically the design of the register file (which resembles a convener belt) is discussed here.

  • In fairness, the holodeck computer seems generally prone to go way overboard when constructing extrapolations of people, since that is how it also gave us a fully sentient Moriarty.

    Jump

  • Just like they say, you can modify the code and remove for free if you really want, they’re not forbidding you from doing so or anything

    True, but I think you are discounting the risk that the actual god Anubis will take displeasure at such an act, potentially dooming one's real life soul.

  • The IR is designed to be easy to optimize, not easy for a real machine to execute. Among other things, it assumes it has access to an infinite number of registers so that it never needs to (and in fact is not allowed to) write a new value into a previously used register.

  • Just to be clear: my criticism is not that the other commenter was lying or being disingenuous about their own experiences, but that they made sweeping generalizations in their comment.
