@schteppe @principo You living in 1970s bro, just tell Claude "make this code memory safe", 10s later it's all fixed.

@principo In a large enough C codebase, firefighting memory issues takes a lot of time and energy even if you’re a C savant

@adamdanieli Att införa marknadshyror utan att avskaffa ränteavdragen skapar en kraftig snedvridning mellan olika boendeformer. Frågan är: hur gör man i praktiken och hur vinner man val på reformen?

@Adriksh Also required sometimes if you wanna do in application flash programming like bootloaders with loading new firmwares from uart/wifi/whatever (assuming single bank flash).

Some embedded functions are literally moved into RAM because flash memory is too slow. One attribute changes where the CPU fetches instructions from.

@unconed In C, signed leads to way worse footguns because overflow is undefined behavior.

unconed 🛸💫👻@unconed·
Signed vs unsigned for integers is a funny one in the line of "make illegal states unrepresentable". In theory you never need to [index] negatively or allocate negative sizes. But as soon as you have +1/-1 offsets, with or without cyclical wrapping, unsigned leads to footguns, whereas signed does not. And with 64-bit integers, losing half the size space isn't actually an issue like it was with 32. #some-notes-on-the-changes-in-c3" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">c3-lang.org/blog/unsigned-…

"why it is obvious to so many of us that AI is *not* conscious?" Because it would violate your metaphysical assumption of human supremacy, so you decide it's impossible a priori. Anything is "obvious" if you assume it at the outset.
Greg Ashman@greg_ashman

The reaction to Dawkins deciding Claude is conscious is fascinating. It really is just the Strong AI position that Roger Penrose was criticising in the 1980s. If you think consciousness is just an emergent property of a sufficiently complex computer then of course AI is conscious. It passes the Turing test and that’s it. The really interesting part is why it is obvious to so many of us that AI is *not* conscious: obvious to the point we think Dawkins’ credulity is amusing. What are we basing that on? Are we deluded or is there something else to consciousness that we cannot articulate but that we clearly sense?

Actually reading this makes it clear that Dawkins hasn’t actually been pwned by AI, Twitter is just incapable of understanding speculative inquiry or irony.

@dmitriid Process allocation on windows is on the order of 10-30ms, loading your DLLs is another 5-10ms, you can barely get a C++ WinForms app to display in under 50ms Add .NET+WinUI and you gotta boot the CLR, allocate a new draw buffer, set up the dispatcher, etc.

@PythonCEstLaVie @tidloc @Grummz But nobody thinks a run dialog is a new one time thing, it's more like clicking on a menu in a program, so fps is a perfectly fine way to measure the delta.

Microsoft just "optimized" Windows Run Dialog. It now only takes 94ms to open. Microsoft is thrilled they achieved... 10fps. They even said: "Perf was top-of-mind when rewriting Run!!!" Windows is total slop and they are still clueless. Epic's Tim Sweeny replied: "94msec? Most gamer monitors refresh every 8msec or less." I get they wanted to animate it but it's a f-ing run command, should be instant.

@rfleury If C decl syntax causes you confusion, you've most likely fucked something up. The most complex I've ever needed is an array of function ptrs, and most of the time I have a typedef for the function, so no biggie. It's still retarded, sure, but never a problem in practice.

@MikeSifferkonto Jag skrev ju just att SD, inte Elsa Widding, precis har delat ut 200 000 nya medborgarskap till blattar. SD:s officiella linje numera är dessutom att alla som har fått ett svenskt pass är svenskar. Har svårt att tro att Elsa tycker det.

@questionableway Why would it change their position? If they know a majority would choose blue then there's absolutetly no downside to choosing red.

here's the thing about this thought experiment: the % threshold where everyone is saved (50% here) is *crucial* to the decision, yet very few people focus on it at all!
Tim Urban@waitbutwhy

Everyone in the world has to take a private vote by pressing a red or blue button. If more than 50% of people press the blue button, everyone survives. If less than 50% of people press the blue button, only people who pressed the red button survive. Which button would you press?

The only reason drone warfare isn’t treated like nerve gas or land mines under international law is because it isn’t the West’s sons dying from it. As soon as it’s not Ivans being blown to bits but Johns and Toms the “discussion on the ethics of drone warfare” will become a mainstream talking point.
WarRoom Archives@WarRoomArchives

Drone warfare has reached such a level that many fighters have lost hope of escaping or resisting. For example, the final strike on the barracks is terrifying.

@langofmind Whether this includes children or not isn’t “framing”. That’s a substantive difference. “Everyone” has a clear meaning, too; it’s not exactly unspecified whether “everyone” includes children.

Love that we're doing this again, but let's settle it for good. This is a linguistic framing effect. Compare current framing to: If you choose red button, you live no matter what. If you choose blue button, you live only if a majority also choose blue.
