  • SUSE Developer Working To Reimplement SSH Using The Zig Programming Language

    Jump

  • Rewrite in zig? But why? What advantages would it have over the current SSH implementation?

    The world’s tallest chip defies the limits of computing: goodbye to Moore’s Law?

    Jump

  • This sounded like it would be for CPUs and other chips in PCs but from the sound of it, it'll be for low power chips that dont heat up much.

  • That makes sense. Congrats on getting it up and running. I need to finish at least one project I started! Much respect for doing so.

  • Why not GrayJay?

  • Is the FOSS world in danger of a corporate takeover, thanks to pushover licenses?

    Jump

  • Corporate loves it! Free, unpaid work means no opensource spirit can stop them in court. Pushover license is a perfect name for it.

  • Android syncthing repo gone and Developer profile gone private.

  • Sick of reinstalling every year? My 8-step 'reinstall-proof' Linux desktop setup that actually survives hardware swaps

    Jump

  • Every year? What in the world are you doing with your hardware and software?

  • Rust in Android: move fast and fix things

    Jump

  • On the phoronix forums there are people seething about Rust nonstop. Rust in the linux kernel is their favorite enemy and they will have very strong opinions about it without ever having written rust nor a line of code in the kernel.

    Rust won't 100% replace C++ code in old code bases but I'm convinced that in 5-10 years the amount of new C++ code will fall behind Rust code.

  • Why call it full-disk encryption when the EFI partition has to be unencrypted?

    Jump

  • With that logic there's no need to even encrypt your partitions 🤷

  • Why call it full-disk encryption when the EFI partition has to be unencrypted?

    Jump

  • Sure, but unencrypted means it can be tampered with. The bootloader can be modified to write your password to disk and once you boot, submit that to a server somewhere - or worse.

    Jump

  • Why not have the BIOS decrypt the disk then continue the boot process as normal?

  • They'll somehow get Google to pay them to make it the default search engine for the alliance.

  • Practical Data-Oriented Design - a talk by Andrew Kelley

    Jump

  • Yeah, the second he started talking about computer architecture, I thought "he's going to align the data and keep it close to each in memory for better caching and faster access, isn't he?".

    At the moment, it looks like an interesting way to optimise an existing program. I'm not sure if thinking about it right from the beginning will speed up programming as, IMO, first something functional has to be written with somewhat good architecture, then the architecture improved to make sense and more features added, and once a v1 exists that's satisfactory, then optimisation starts.

    Maybe I'm wrong though and this is something that can be considered from the getgo, but it feels more like a latestage kind of thing. Some if it can definitely be taken care of by the compiler and the developer made aware of with warnings.

    Millions of bats are being killed by wind turbines, but smart sensors could help protect them

    Jump

  • It can begin to compete if more centrals are built and RnD is invested. Solar and wind had billions invested in them and continuous construction. Nuclear just stalled and the knowledge was kinda lost. The same investment could lead to a very stable network for base load.

  • Could nuclear still is the best option we have? How many deaths can be attributed to it?

  • Practical Data-Oriented Design - a talk by Andrew Kelley

    Jump

  • This was much more pleasurable than the Lunduke - DHH interview. Boy, is this one relaxing.

  • Is there a formalized ban appeal process for the fediverse? Do I just direct message a mod?

    Jump

  • @Zoomboingding@lemmy.world, @JubilantJaguar@lemmy.world is right. You stumbled onto an extremely hot topic on the fediverse. Blahaj is extremely sensitive to it, that's just how the community is.

    If they dont want your identity (the current account you are using), just create a new one and use that one to learn their ways and become a good member of their community.

    However, and I'm saying this out of completeness not because I actually believe this is what you want, if you just want to debate their points and break their rules knowingly, please don't. Just accept that they have different preferences than you do. Life is too short to willingly spend time where you aren't wanted.

  • Missing Link: How Linux would continue without Linus Torvalds

    Jump

  • There are linux compatible kernels in the works. There are some written in Rust too (although, at least one is MIT licensed). My prediction is that the linux kernel will die in its current form and be replaced by an alternative, probably an MIT one because industry loves that licence. Then we will have another Mac clone but based on Linux not BSD.
