I think this is great advice for billionaires in general.

You have to be extremely sick to become one.

It would have to be written by sane people.

Language is constantly evolving. There is no clear line. New words are added, meanings change, and it depends on the intent of the speaker too.

However as a mater of practice I choose to never assume it has been reclaimed. It’s always possible that someone hasn’t received the update.

I understand it’s very similar to how people get wrapped up in a cult.

Charismatic leadership/ideology and exerting top-down control in much the same way cults operate.

Surprised not to see meta-classes or package management in the meme.

EDIT: clarification

Perhaps! I’ve always found that people who participate in the HOA Governance are the kind of people who can’t mind their own business.

I had to. It was included with my monthly fees.

I took my trash to the dumpster. Later I got a photo of my trash bag in the dumpster because I had tied the bag closed incorrectly and a $200 fine for improper trash bag fastener.

Oh my gosh thank you! This has been bothering me for ages. This is the only solution I found that actually works.

I’m always torn on this. God bless America, but it also feels irresponsible.

This is certainly an interesting feature, though my one use case has become much less relevant now that systems boot so quickly.

Perhaps if you have long running jobs and no implementation of state saving it could find applications.

2 Duo. I remember when those came out and how multicore was still a novelty. Now my economy chip in my home desktop has 16 threads.

I’ve worked on ground systems and it’s actually come in handy two times in five years, usually where we had a hard-to-reproduce bug. Getting the info when the problem happens can occasionally be all the difference.

Addendum: And usually we didn’t care about performance. Basically never.

When I left my last job they were using the zip file method for version control and one creative developer managed to link two versions of libc at the same time.

Software is so useful that the standard for utility is extremely low.

We test AND develop in production. Get on my level.

I drove a base model Ford Fiesta about five years ago that did not ship with cruise control functionality of any kind. I was surprised as well, but the practice does exist.

I’m less certain. Lots of intelligent people can get caught up in such things. Religion depends also on upbringing and cultural background.

Way cool! Might actually try it sometime.

With KVM performance will be quite good, but when you need to emulate cross architecture? I don’t think there are many alternatives that support the entire VM. I only know of user space tools that are focused on emulating a binary.

Call it a difference of opinion that I don’t believe it should try to be bit-accurate for floating point. But, it’s a valid position to take. There are many use cases for QEMU. In this case where we emit some host instructions I do believe it’s still within the helper function instead of inline which is not ideal. The guest code using floating point in the first place to me implies some degree of inaccuracy is permissible and this is the position that some cross architecture game emulators take. But again, I suppose it can depend what code you wish to run.
