I miss the old Steve Yegge that actually knew how to write coherently. AI psychosis is apparently a hell of a drug... this is pages and pages of complete dreck.
I use my own very similar version of this spsc lock-free ring buffer on almost every embedded project I work on that has to stream any sort of sampled data (e.g. audio). You can even have the consumer end be a DMA into something like a uart or USB peripheral so your microcontroller userspace doesn't have to touch the hardware.
Real, genuinely confused human here: Can someone please clarify whether or not gas town is/was a joke? I've searched repeatedly and can't find anything that looks like an obvious tell, and I'm not sure if this is because it's actually real and people are taking it seriously, or because the pages and pages of discourse surrounding it is AI generated and taking itself literally.
If it's not a joke... I have no words. You've all gone insane.
What a misunderstanding -- glass transition temperature means different things for thermoplastics (i.e. anything that comes out of an FDM printer like the CF-ABS in question) and for thermosetting resins like epoxy that actually undergo molecular cross-linking during the curing phase. Thermoplastics will get soft and can deform without limit, while thermosets get rubbery but still more or less hold their formed shape.
Hey, Joe! This is one of my favorite cello pieces -- so hauntingly beautiful. I've probably listened to Janos Starker's performance dozens of times, but I also liked Inbal Segev's version. Parts of it seemed brighter somehow.
Parent is not refuting that WSL2 performed better than WSL1, they're arguing that a reasonable response to WSL1 giving you slow build times might have simply been to use a VM instead.
Microsoft being Microsoft, they didn't want people like you to hop to VMware or VirtualBox and use a full, branded instance of Fedora or Ubuntu, because then you would realize that the next hop (moving to Linux entirely) was actually quite reasonable. So they threw away WSL1 and built WSL2. Obviously WSL2 worked better for you than WSL1, but you also did exactly what Microsoft wanted you to do, which is to their benefit, and not necessarily to yours.
And then the next generation will have signed firmware that doesn't allow the device to start until the spy packets go out and the response is received.
We need to kill these companies and their business models. As fun as it is for smart people like us to perform one-off lobotomies, it doesn't solve the problem.
