>Apparently gcc generates some DWARF data that gdb is slow to handle. The GNU linker fixes this data, so that gdb doesn’t end up handling it slowly. LLD refuses to emulate this behavior of the GNU linker, because it’s gcc’s fault to have produced that DWARF data in the first place. And gdb refuses to handle LLD’s output efficiently, because it’s LLD’s fault to not have handled gcc’s output the way the GNU linker does. So I just remove -ggdb3 - it gives you a bit richer debug info, but it’s not worth the slower linking with gold instead of LLD, nor the slowdown in gdb that you get with LLD. And everyone links happily ever after.

lol, it's a story as old as time. The infinite loop of ego entrenched developers not wanting to change something out of some trivial inconsequential disagreement. The bike shed will be built my way!

Curious if this is related to the issues that they're now experiencing.

Re:Could you please brutally review my product website? on Friday July 07, 2023 @09:48PM (#36640567)
The website is slow to do an initial load and when scrolling it takes longer than a second to load the next section. The website seems mostly static, (except for the PerfAI terminal) it shouldn't be this slow.

It looks like you're using Webflow, not sure if it's possible to make it faster.

Are we committing a Feynman error today, with the way we're developing large language models or other Artificial Intelligence?

Show HN: Hopper a Distributed Fuzzer

https://github.com/Cybergenik/hopper

I've been getting really into Distributed Fuzzers recently. And I've noticed, very few papers have been written about truly Distributed Fuzzers, it's still quite an emergent field.Less than 6 months ago, Google Open Sourced its internal Distributed Fuzzer called Centipede. It's written in C++: https://github.com/google/centipedeAnd it seems like the libfuzzer team is moving on to Centipede:...

I came across this earlier today and I can't seem to wrap my head around the claim it makes at the top. Is this real??? or is there some trick here, my bullshit senses are tingling.
Re:My Experience as a SWE Intern at Goldman Sachs on Saturday January 08, 2022 @03:43PM (#29855989)
Hey, Thanks for reading!

I'm not sure. I got a return offer to intern again for summer 2022. But I ended up taking an internship at Amazon instead. Mostly because I want to try new things and see what it's like to develop at a big company without all the red tape and just in a new environment.

But I can't say that it's completely out of the realm of possibility for me to come back. I think it would largely depend on the team. If I did come back, it'd be cool to work with one of the Cloud teams.

Always! :)

I was compensated very well man! Don't worry, I wouldn't take a job like this if it wasn't well paid ;)

LOL SecDB, I remember that...

Thanks for the constructive criticism! When I said surreal I didn't mean the hikes, I meant the way they took me into their inner circle and treated me like just another team member as opposed to just a temporary intern. I'll have to run a spell checker, no real excuse for that. I can only draw from my own experience when writing the blog, so I just wrote about how I felt while going through it. As "inauthentic" as that might sound. Also Goldman wasn't my first paid SWE job, I've had previous jobs where I've had to write production software and my thoughts on Open Source are my own, through my own experiences. I'm not simply regurgitating a position.

Thanks for the feedback! I generally prefer darker themes, so my eyes don't hurt. I am however working on a toggle button to make the website light/dark.

Yeah, so I did implement the ability to POST the data. However because there was a need to be able to just share a link with someone and see everything they saw, so I had to somehow fit everything into the URL. I can't really go more in depth without divulging some info on the type of data, sorry!
