That’s a rhetorical game so he can disparage MLK’s ideas and then say, “I didn’t say I hate MLK.”

Ada answered the question, but consider your question.

You said “leaving a spaceship with no suit”. If your idea is that something left in space becomes dangerously radioactive then any space station or space ship would itself become dangerously radioactive.

So the answer is, no, things in space don’t become dangerously radioactive. Also things in contact with radioactive substances don’t themselves become radioactive except under extremely specific circumstances. Your house didn’t become dangerously radioactive because of the radioactive americium-241 in the smoke detectors.

Insurance is a company that takes small amounts of money monthly in the event of a large expense that you are unable to pay for. Then they don’t give you all the money to cover the expense. -At least not without a fight. They take ~7% of your money for this service.

I did some googling and she could still be alive.

Anonymous girl. Photo by Gustave Gain possibly as late as 1940. If girl was 15 at the time of the photo she’d be 100 today.

He gave an elaborate yes. Yes, memes are frontpage because that’s what is up voted. People like pics. Even in comments, I find my replies that include a photo get far more up votes than text alone.

It was performative after Musk’s sieg heil crashed Tesla sales.

After thinking about these bills every day for about three months, you can finally pay them and be done with it

Oh your not done with it. In almost all cases you’ll get another bill in 6 months to a year later that’s a mistake but you have to call to correct the error.

I’ve got a movie for you:

I never liked cd caddies. The push button, wait for motor to eject, then push button, wait for motor to load was dissociative.

The floppy drive was a direct mechanical link between the button and eject.

Windows Media center was an amazing money saver! I cancelled all my cable boxes, bought a server to run 8.1, bought some used xbox360’s for every TV in the house, and everything was paid for in 9 months compared to the cable company rental fees. So I not only got 3 xbox360s and a server for “free” but was saving money for the next 3 years until I cancelled cable completely.

Plus I had unlimited TV show storage and could transcode anything I wanted to keep permanently to mp4.

People totally got killed by doing their own maintenance

People have totally gotten killed from maintenance done by a “professional” (new kid on the job at the shop.)

I watch YouTuber CarCareNut and he’s shown many stupid mistakes made by dealerships.

I assure you I take greater care doing repairs than a tech who will get yelled at if they don’t finish the job fast.

Because I converted some backend processing services from nodejs to rust,

You converted only the functions you needed and only included the functions you needed. You did not convert the entire node.js codebase and then include the entire library. That’s the problem I’m describing. A few years ago I toyed with javascript to make a LCARS style wall home automation panel. The overhead of what other people had published was absurd. I did what you did. I took out only the functions I needed, rewrote them, and reduced my program from gigabytes to megabytes even though it was still all Javascript.

This isn’t Reddit. You don’t need to talk in absolutes.

I haven’t posted anything on reddit in years. There is no need to start off a post with insults.

re: garbage collection

I wrote java back in 1997 and the programs used a few megabytes. Garbage collection doesn’t in itself require significantly more ram because it only delays the freeing of ram that would have been allocated using a non garbage collection language. Syntatic sugar like iterators does not in general save gigabytes of ram.

The OP isn’t talking about 500k apps now requiring 1MB. The article talks about former 85K apps now taking GB’s of ram.

Writing in Rust or “an efficient language” does nothing for ram bloat. The problem is using 3rd party libraries and frameworks. For example a JavaScript interpreter uses around 400k. The JavaScript problem is developers importing a 1GB library to compare a string.

You’d have the same bloat if you wrote in assembly.

Funny how what is a black market underground economy in Russia because of the danger is “market research data” legally sold in the US.

I Dream of Jeannie / Barbara Eden was married to Klingon Kang /Michael Ansara.

Shower thoughts.

I was intrigued by their open hardware claim but then saw the pi/Mali/rk3588 options all of which are more closed source (require binary blobs) than the x86 they eschew for being closed.

Why the downvotes? He moved the question to a more appropriate forum.

As soon as corporate contracts dry up they’ll go back to consumers but at a higher price point just like GPUs.

Or are you not going to buy ram ever again?
