This isn’t my area of expertise but I’m surprised there’s no mention of errata. Is that just not a factor at this point because the firmware is assumed to be mature enough?

This is great, if for no other reason that it will give people the ability to debug build issues on their own and get access to fixes without having to wait for the next Xcode release.

Great write up, but it left me with a few questions:

* Is levelloadloop only executed when the game launches, not when joining a server and loading the map? * If the issues is that the loop is shut down before the steam auth process is started, why would the maintenance-related slowness matter?

Unless something on the regulatory side changes, nothing will happen to direct listings. People want to own stocks that they believe will go up. That’s the long and short of it. Retail investors don’t read IPO prospectuses. Institutional investors will be more hesitant, naturally, but they have the resources and expertise to asses the risks, and any public company still has to comply with disclosure requirements, IPO or no. There was similar handwringing about companies selling non-voting shares on the stock market. Turns out most people don’t buy stock to vote it, and most people don’t vote even if they can.

In some cases, it is too fast. When I installed K3s, all of the containers in the kube-system namespace kept entering the dreaded CrashLoopBackOff state [..] After some investigation, I found out that the Mac Studio was just too fast for the Kubernetes resource timing

I’d like to understand what the issue here is. Sounds counterintuitive to me.

You mention there’s always only one scalar multiplication unit. Can you elaborate why that is the case? What’s keeping AMD and Intel from adding more?

Swift UTF-8 String 7 years ago

It would have to be opaque as there is no backing allocation of any kind so the string can’t provide a pointer to the contiguous memory. (Plus tagged strings use an encoding scheme that makes the incompatible with UTF-8 anyway) It’s possible that a smallstring version of the tagged pointer is created in some situations.

SmallString actually was just a tagged cocoa string at one point but that was removed in favor of more powerful implementations. The latest implementation allocates no memory on the heap either but can store more characters, so using a tagged pointer would be a step back.
