bro a postmortem is supposed to happen, you know, "post'
me: "I would like to manage my own memory"
genie: "done! you can now manage your own memory leaks"
me: "my own what?"
genie: "you heard me. two wishes left"
the whole ntsync story is /bonkers/ but mostly in a "they did WHAT? for HOW LONG?" sense

My (36NB) intermediate representations (High-level, RVSDG, Linear, CFG-Machine, RegAlloc) have unionized
status update: i've rented enough macs from scaleway that they stopped me halfway through to check with their "safety and trust" team (they deemed me safe and trustable)

Next week, on Anthropic's Stupid Fucking Move Of The Day:
- Pro subscribers can no longer type the letter "P"
- Claude Design builds cryptominer into every design (pay to remove)
- Anthropic leadership meets with goat community, concerned about AI-bovine relationships
and the "best rust crate acronym" of the day goes to: https://lib.rs/crates/crime
PSA "text-align: justify" still makes your blog unreadable
Even if you do hyphenations properly
Unless it wasn't meant to be read, then it's fine ig
omg why isn't this built into rustc: https://github.com/est31/warnalyzer
And remember, kids, there are many ways to run benchmarks, and all of them are wrong.
> the compiler is unable to type-check this expression in reasonable time
good: clear, honest communication
bad: that means the language design is a bit fucked, right? I shouldn't be seeing this several times a day.
took a break from "reinventing nix" to focus on "reinventing capn' proto"
oooh AV2 yesss https://code.videolan.org/videolan/dav2d
negative amounts of reading comprehension in here about GitHub's April 24 update.
they're gonna start using YOUR COPILOT INTERACTIONS for training unless you opt-out.
anyone outraged by this probably isn't using copilot in the first place, and therefore won't be impacted at all!
actual update: https://github.blog/news-insights/company-news/updates-to-github-copilot-interaction-data-usage-policy/
if you don’t have your own petard, store bought is fine
ahhhh, "unroll loops", the "it's gonna get worse before it gets better" of compiler optimizations.
🐉 QUESTION 🦀
what are your questions for Carol Nichols & Chris Krycho, co-authors of: The Rust Programming Language, 3rd Edition?
I'm interviewing them today. Send in your questions please. 🙏
Maybe I just never answer my emails. Maybe they just compost or something. Mhh.

(actually you can totally disable SIP for a mac-in-mac VM, via UTM or somesuch. of course if you do Metal stuff in there then I hope you're really really patient)

@tinystartapp@nileane.fr @cheeaun@mastodon.social Glad I could help! You both make things I enjoy very much (TinyStart + Phanpy)

@tastapod Yeah, this is a weird call out. As someone else pointed out, uptime has genuinely dipped into the 90s. I don't think this is a great example of lying with graphs. I also don't think GitHub needs anyone defending them right now. And I also think that your post makes it look like the author of Ghostty is misleading people (When actually, it's just some rando who shared their article).
Anyway, I agree with the sentiment, I disagree with the choice of target.

@macmade@mastodon.social poking at MTLReplayer.app with lldb, I'm trying to replay+profile Metal traces (.gputrace) without doing Xcode AX automation (which works but, ugh). No luck so far, everything is really privileged/private. 🫠

@cheeaun@mastodon.social @tinystartapp@nileane.fr in 'Add for indexing', Cmd+Shift+G, paste /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/, you're now inside Xcode.app (past the greyed out app bundle)

@macmade@mastodon.social I got what I needed with the SIP-less VM :) I'll blog about it.
okay, ELI5 foreign policy to me: https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20260427-china-warns-eu-made-in-europe-plan-countermeasures
what "countermeasures" is China talking about here exactly?

@gnuplusknoppers@troet.cafe Oh wow! This is super interesting. Thank you for letting me now. Regarding the podcast, I don't have any information for you at the moment.
if you type `localhost:` what port does your browser autocomplete to?

@butternut@hachyderm.io aaaaa answering this for the 4th time: yes, but disabling SIP = bad for security = don't do it on the machine where you're logged into your Apple Account, your bank, your github, etc.
Replying to
@butternut@hachyderm.io (and yeah for most things, a VM with SIP disabled inside of your daily mac with SIP enabled, is perfectly fine. depends what you need to do)
