Sometimes, it's backwards
  • and I don't mean, following what the computer science methodology tells you, I mean having an idea of the best way to translate an idea into a logical solution that can be applied in any programming language,

    But that IS computer science.

  • Sometimes, it's backwards
  • and Big O

    It's asymptotic. Slower O doesn't mean faster program.

  • devs who use macs

    Do they exist? Are you sure they are devs?

  • Steam does the opposite of forcing Arbitration on its users
  • Calling arbitration a kangaroo court will just insult australians. Compared to arbitration even judge Krivoruchko will be more fair it. And he is Putin's pocket judge.

  • Can Zaiger do it to other corpos with forced arbitration?

  • Women in STEM
  • Bobr says yes.

  • Languages
  • Didn't even know it

  • Languages
  • For me "The Critical Flaw" of rust is its compiler. And requirent of 12 GB of disk space to compile just the frontend of compiler. Even GCC will all frontends(C, C++, Ada, Fortran, Modula-2, JIT) requires less space.

    But joke is probably about "rewrite in rust" culture.

  • I wamted to post Ada Lovelace and Maria Curie, but then I read image.

  • oh shit
  • The what?

  • I love people with kids who are oblivious they're shitty parents.
  • Shouldn't goverment finance healthcare?

    Wait, wrong country.

  • Vance mocked for saying eggs cost $4 — while standing in front of a dozen for $2.99
  • 1.5 droubles for pack of ten. One drouble is approximately one dollar or exactly 100 roubles.

  • Do they need Peskov? Volodin says he is so good, that he works for National Tresure(Putin). He can lie even when silent. He is kinda national treasure too, but Republicans(or anyone else) can have him for free if they choose self-pickup.

  • I feel like if you pick a random person off the street and swapped places with Vance, they would have more charisma, and also more experience with groceries and donut shops.

    Well, ANYONE would be better than Putin. Even most drunk alcoholic from streets.

    Wait, you were talking not about Putin?

  • Academic writing
  • realize they're just using an esoteric term to describe something you've used forever.

    Programming is applied math. Mathematicians say "theory of mass service", programmers say "schedulers". Well, it's "theory of mass service" in Russian, but in English it is "queue theory".

    If something similar had been caused by an OSS component, we would see congress discussing a ban on open software in critical infrastructure already.

    Reddit mods ban for "not punctuating correcttly"
    mastodon.social Gregory (@grishka@mastodon.social)

    Attached: 1 image Some of the new Reddit mods are so toxic. Instead of apologizing for the bot being too harsh and reinstating my submission, they just banned me because I dared to ask what exactly I didn't "punctuate correctly".

    Linus Torvalds rant and Async IO
    www.scylladb.com How io_uring and eBPF Will Revolutionize Programming in Linux - ScyllaDB

    ScyllaDB's Glauber Costa explains how two new APIs, io_uring and eBPF, are changing the fundamental nature of Linux programming.

But also expand on why he is right. Linux AIO is indeed rigged with problems and limitations:
