I can finally reveal what I've been working on: AR Studio! https://t.co/DFzeTWkr87

@mitchellh 2) Swift and Rust are great examples that you cannot retrofit performance – software needs to be designed with performance as a core requirement from day one.

It’s just not possible to hotspot your way out of a slow architecture.

@mitchellh 1) Rust compile times (incremental and cold) on real world large scale projects is a total dumpster 🔥 – they need to be at least 100x faster.

The fact that `cargo check` and `rustc` incremental compilation mode exist is a symptom of a serious problem.

@Jonathan_Blow @BenSimsTech Wrote about exactly this “Premature Optimization: Universally Misunderstood” https://t.co/JptySpOopR

@krzyzanowskim that whole channel is just pure gold.

@DamienPetrilli @mjtsai FWIW, I do think these platforms (iOS, iPadOS, visionOS) can be successful as consumer-focused OSes with a focus which caters to popular use cases.

But iPhones, iPads, Vision Pros are not general purpose computers, as long as they run locked down platforms.

[Milen Dzhumerov @milend]

@DamienPetrilli @mjtsai It's exactly how I've felt for a while now - by design, neither iPadOS nor visionOS would be the "future of computing" since they can't even replace a basic general purpose computer, by definition. So it would be interesting to see how this will play out in long term.

[Milen Dzhumerov @milend]

"Premature optimization" has been universally misunderstood to mean "don't think about performance at the beginning of a project". It was never meant to be interpreted that way → https://t.co/JptySpOopR

I felt nostalgic, so decided to install Windows XP on my M1 Mac, taking screenshots along the way 📸 Guide and gallery at https://t.co/jgkEIGEqEH

@Mojo_66 @mjtsai @howardnoakley @justkwin It does indeed work - thanks! There's a lot of conflicting info out there as some interfaces return `struct if_data` and not `struct ifdata_64`.

It also doesn't help that `man ifmib` has not been updated to reflect the 64bit layout update.

I'll update my blog post as well.

[Milen Dzhumerov @milend]

@Mojo_66 @mjtsai @howardnoakley I’m not aware (nor was the Apple engineer) of any 64bit interface metrics API on macOS that can do that - can you clarify which specific ioctl() request code you’re using? You’ve piqued my interest.

[Milen Dzhumerov @milend]

@songcarver I never had the time to explore the idea, so it's just lingering on the endless TODO list :)

[Milen Dzhumerov @milend]

@marcpalmerdev I just ran out of time before implementing inline editing, so the popover was a quick way to get editing functionality 🙃

[Milen Dzhumerov @milend]

@marcpalmerdev Need to investigate re: dismiss behaviour as I've forgotten the various options, it does dismiss if you click on the sidebar but not on other elements.

[Milen Dzhumerov @milend]

@marcpalmerdev Yeah, that's what I thought would be the more appropriate behaviour but wanted to double check. I think it makes sense - adding it to the TODO list for the next update :)

[Milen Dzhumerov @milend]

@marcpalmerdev @nicklockwood @Monodraw Thank you for the very kind words!

@cfihelp @mjtsai The culprit is most likely due to https://t.co/adjlgHnjys - debugger attachment will be extremely slow as a consequence.
