@iskyzh You should put an airtag in the heel of each slipper. then you can never lose them

The trailer suggests that marine armor gets reused between marines. That explains why this mech suit only costs 50 minerals.

Trainium has by far the best profiler of any accelerator. As you can see we have nanosecond-accurate traces of our programs, allowing you to write a program that generates images reliably in the profiler.

bad apple, but actually running on a trainium chip

@zack_overflow Probably has to do with the history - I believe it started out as asm.js which was an assembly interpreter written in javascript, and then they decided to make it a first-class thing instead of abusing javascript as a route to jit things

The VOD for my BSC2026 talk "The Root of The Root of All Evil" is now available! It's the spiritual successor to last year's "The Big OOPs", so if you enjoyed that one, join me for one more adventure into the history of computer science:

@cmuratori @Substack Ah I see what you mean, and maddeningly enough the table of contents page causes the navigation bar at the top to disappear, so I didn't even see the other podcast tabs on the site

This morning my espresso scale wasn’t working so then I plugged it into my laptop and Claude debugged it over serial. It had me wiggling wires while it read the raw ADC values. The future is absolutely wild

[Sasha Krassovsky @bztree]

@rfleury All those people deleted their accounts I’d guess

[Sasha Krassovsky @bztree]

@filpizlo Honestly pretty cool though! That it can autogenerate all that RPC just from an interface definition

[Sasha Krassovsky @bztree]

@yungbzz @grok how does a typical JIT compiler work? What advanced tricks does something like the HotSpot VM or JavaScript Core do?

[Sasha Krassovsky @bztree]

When I was a kid and had heard of JIT compilation for the first time, I thought it worked was having a compiler thread and a runner thread, and the compiler would fill in the runner’s instruction stream WHILE the runner was executing. The mystery was in how the compiler would always finish compiling just in time for the runner to continue executing. “Wow a hard realtime compiler that predicts exactly how long a given chunk will execute!!”

Then when I found out the truth I was pretty disappointed.

[Christian Gilli @nirw4nna]

If it takes 2 minutes to compile a kernel can I still call it “just in time”?

[Sasha Krassovsky @bztree]

@justalexoki Probably missing micronutrients

[Sasha Krassovsky @bztree]

@BretHatin Isn’t that abandoned at this point?

[Sasha Krassovsky @bztree]

I bought this and it’s honestly amazing how snappy it is. We need all software to be this fast. Who’s rewriting emacs to be this snappy?
