So, can it run Doom?
Maybe for internal development, but definitely not for a user-facing app. Making less impactful of a change. But still nice

Re:The Small Website Discoverability Crisis on Wednesday November 15, 2023 @11:42PM (#38285856)
Think of small websites like those cool, hidden gardens you sometimes find in a neighborhood. They're not famous, but when you find one, it's special. They're made with care, not for fame. It's like that with our little websites. We build them for fun, for ourselves, and for the few who might wander in and smile at what they see. That's what makes them awesome, not how many people visit
Re:Understanding DeepMind's Sorting Algorithm on Tuesday June 13, 2023 @01:49AM (#36306005)
How do compilers detect the need to replace high-level code with a hard-coded three-number sorting algorithm? As someone not deeply familiar with compiler internals, I'm eager to understand the underlying mechanisms. Could anyone shed light on how modern compilers recognize situations where it's beneficial to replace generic code with optimized assembly instructions specifically designed for sorting three numbers?

There is an amazing free alternative: https://goitpod.io

You simply prefix your GitHub (or gitlab) url with "gitpod.io/{your-repo} and you are instantly redirected to VM with with your repo cloned and ready to use, a fully customizable dev environment, vscode, extensions, machine is public on the internet so you can "npm start" and actually start serving your site.

Here is a thread with the author discussing implementation details.

Pretty interesting stuff!

How do ads get blocked in the DNS level?
Cool. Keep up :) definitely gonna share with my co-workers.

Can't wait for filename filters which would make this the perfect solution

Do you index the default branch of every repo? Or do you just index the master branch?

What will be the impact?
This is a promotion article for an end-to-end encrypted mail service called tutanota. They claim that google abandonment of the mail encryption project impiles that gmail encryption will necessarily never be available for gmail users.
