Perhaps Elmo can move his toxic, illegal, cancer inducing, gas generators there, instead of doing it in Memphis. https://tennesseelookout.com/2025/07/07/a-billionaire-an-ai-...

It’s better than having your DC confiscated (by Putin, in Russia), or bombed (in Ukraine, by Russia). As some hyperscalers realized.

No, E-bikes doesn’t make this much less of an issue.

Do you think it’s a coincidence that the top two countries are completely flat?

Of course it helps if the city, and country in general, is completely flat. Cities in Norway or Nepal have mother nature against all form of manual locomotion.

Always interesting to see the privacy fear of americans. The rest of the world isn’t afraid of non-sexual intimacy with friend/family.

So async enable concurrent outstanding requests.

There’s syntax that is objectively easier to both read and write, and there’s syntax that is both harder to read and write. For a majority.

In general, using english words consisting of a-z is easier to read. Using regex-like mojibake is harder.

For an concrete example in rust, using pipes in lambdas, instead of an arrow, is aweful.

For a while the brain dead utf32 encoding was popular in the Unix/Linux world.

Custom word widgets in that zoom dialog, the scroll wheel doesn’t even work in the spinner box.

1% is closer to 100%, than 0% is, yes.

Companies typically move more and more functionality to closed firmware, so they can ”open source” a thin wrapper, like a driver, that is often completely useless, and often encumbered with cryptography restrictions, strict trademarks and software patents anyway.

Closed verilog I can accept. But in general firmware is also software, for example it has become quite popular in the recent years to execute firmware on an embedded riscv cpu. And move more and more functionality to that kind of firmware.

Isn’t minix open source?

Enshittification. Open source is a valuable guarantee against that.

Apple provide even less documentation than Qualcomm. Let that sink in.

Linux on arm is probably the most popular computing device platform in the world.

All made in Taiwan!

Gons.

Some regulation should double the costs, to prevent evil people from doing bad things.

Also, under-regulation might triple the costs for society.

Only took 18 years for apple and google, good work! See you in 2043 for next common feature.

Windows95 also doubled the dos limit of a cmdline from 128 to 256 in… 1995.

A congestion algorithm using a machine learning model would of course be better than a generic approach, and the browser could then also be promoted with ”AI”. Come on google!

Perhaps their grand children are still around?

Most operating systems mounts things dynamically. You can never trust that a path for you exists for another user.

That’s the hard part to answer, that Mozilla leaves to you!

Modern cpus are optimized for calling functions. Spaghetti code with gotos is actually slower.

Just put all code on one line then. Statements (or tokens) is what matters.
