The internet has survived a period where a handful of late teens and early 20s kids were the only ones that knew about pre-malloc integer overflows as a bug class, and you could "grep malloc | grep \*" to find a bug in OpenSSH. This is why I am pretty chill about Mythos.

@donotcallmemike @Turbinetraveler Spirit rushed this a bit and used the mechanisms to lock down the device in case it's lost or stolen for this instead of developing something new.

Assister à un séminaire de recherche en France : les profs émérites, à la fin du cours, posent leurs questions, les jeunes masteriens se taisent et il n’y a pas de place pour leurs questions *à eux*, aucun échange … Le boomerisme, c’est un état d’esprit profond en France 🇫🇷.

@geofflangdale @ptr_to_joel C# retains good interop (PInvoke is great, and Java is finally catching up there), but .NET being a Microsoft product plays against it

@ptr_to_joel traction without both the prestige of Google and the associated big names (rob/ken/rsc). PL is a mess. My youngest is taking CS and it's an unholy mish-mash of languages they are learning but honestly I don't have any better ideas than the faculty do.

Just vulgar LLM sycophancy. That's all it took, to have him eating out of its hand

@mikaelj @GromBeestje Sure but they would have had to break it again if they would have wanted to update the compiler. (GCC 3.0 had an incompatible ABI with 2.95)

As far as I can tell one of the big BeOS mistakes was having its API defined in C++. Makes compiler updates harder than they should be, especially as C++ ABIs were far less stable back then

@MarekKnapek It just crashed on this build when I had real hardware. The emulator has issues with pnp and hangs during setup

Out of nowhere another Alpha windows emulator appeared, the venerable Qemu! While it struggles with the PnP and setup doesn't actually complete, you can still manually extract and run Solitaire! High power, 64Bit DEC Alpha gaming!
