He’s the closest man to C still alive. Yet it’s not really “his” accomplishment. C was created by Ritchie alone, Kernighan only wrote the book.
Re:A Review of Linux on Surface Pro 4
on Tuesday July 16, 2024 @02:56AM (#40974174)
I’ve had had SP4 i5 8gb ram version since 2017. It’s unreliable when running Windows, let alone Linux. It had constant touch screen issues which never fully went away even after replacing the screen. When I tried installing Linux I decided to switch back to Windows after a couple of months as both wifi and bluetooth had constant issues. The battery life is 2 or 3 hours at best even if you replace the battery with a new one. I’ll be replacing it with an M2 Macbook as that’ll be way more productive than to keep using this Surface.

Automating fundamental activites like farming is a top priority if humanity ever wants to expand to other planets. A lot of things will have to be automated to function completely without human interaction.

Re:YouTube experimenting with server-side ad injection

This is the kind of thing where people will put a lot of effort to engineer a good machine learning / AI solution to get rid of these ads. If it’s something that people hate they’ll put all their effort into stopping it. Google might’ve actually made their situation worse with this as it’ll force people to innovate and come up with new ways of countering their bs.

You have no idea what you’re talking about. There’s a huge learning gap between this and a modern consumer CPU. Assembling together logic gates and understanding a simple RISC-V implementation is literally almost nothing when compared to the years you’d have to spend intensively learning just so you could get to the level of being able to design a Pentium 4 from scratch.

This is not even comparable. Yes you can implement a simple graphics card or a RISC CPU in a video game. But that doesn’t mean you have the skill to build any practical modern graphics card or design a modern CISC CPU. You can learn about the basics of these things during a single semester at university and that’s likely what these “video gamers” did. It’s nothing impressive to recreate a RISC-V CPU in some game, only people who have no knowledge in this subject are somehow “impressed” by such things every time it’s brought up.

Yes. You were also constantly threatened by the media and government, forced to take “covid test” and then locked up because of false positive result, or even sent to a “health camp” in some countries. All that because you didn’t accept their precious “vaccine” that was “offered” by them.
