this is a fucking bold thing to put on the page you get after upgrading firefox to 126 due to the pdfjs vuln

@zip that's actually really good, it might make me consider firefox more

wasm seems to have 2 fundamental truths

  • NEVER block the main thread
  • There is no way to spawn a thread from wasm

I keep running into this and it is super frustrating every time

18+ whitequark,

@thezoq2 this isn't actually a wasm limitation; this is a wasm in browser limitation that stems from the fact that it went like...

  1. develop a new computer architecture with strong isolation guarantees and a fresh start for the API
  2. ???
  3. deploy it in browsers everywhere

and nobody quite finished the ??? part yet

@thezoq2 the way to spawn a thread is, unfortunately, to use SAB and to create a new Web Worker with a new instance which happens to share the linear memory

this is more or less how clone(2) works on Linux but browsers really like to rub that fact in your face

@thezoq2 on Wasmtime for example there's just a pthread_create function. you call it like normal, it works.

but Wasmtime is not a browser.

@thezoq2 also I think if you use the Emscripten rustc target you'll have threads just work

estrogen functions as an antiandrogen. so what happens if i take enough testosterone to counteract that, but still keep taking estrogen. what if i kept my levels of both high. what would happen. would you be happy. would you still love me. would we still be in a deep manic bond, a desire that can only be filled by the mad. would you love me if i balanced my testosterone and estrogen levels. would i love me. would i love you. where would i be. who could i talk to, where could i go. please tell me, please. i need the answer by friday, i have a competition and i haven't found someone to bribe me to fail. please, i don't want people to think i failed on accident again. i don't want them to ridicule me, to laugh at me. would you ridicule me, laugh at me, if i took estrogen and testosterone. would you cheer on my competitor as they lap me time and time again. please tell me

Q: why are cis people bad at building FPGAs designs?
A: they don't know how to get the signals to transition right

learning that the platformio folks are a bit... well, you can read for yourself: https://github.com/platformio/platform-raspberrypi/pull/36#issuecomment-1501724359

@timonsku @gsuberland @jacqueline yeah, hence "partly"

my new favorite thing is this diagram of all 256 configurations of the ternlog instruction

@regehr isn't that just a LUT

There's a rule in literary feedback that I feel like tech folks could learn from: assume intentionality.

For example, I saw someone complaining about Copilot appearing on their Windows machine without consent, only to get a reply that they should switch to Linux.

That's a possible solution, and one that I like for myself, but surely the OP didn't just learn about Linux today. They've evaluated that as an option and decided it's not a good option for them.

whitequark,
@whitequark@mastodon.social avatar

@xgranade I assume intentionality: that they know the OP didn't just learn about Linux today, and respond unconstructively on purpose
