TIL big specialized forums have started backdating millions of LLM-generated posts. Now you cannot be sure a reply from 2009 on some forum for physics or maps or flower or drill enthusiasts haven't been machine-generated and totally wrong.

Got it working in C, and running on real hardware! But in the process figured out what I was doing wrong in Zig.

I'll probably be going back to Zig after this because It's been kind of unpleasant using C again. Got used to Zig real fast.

@PurpCat @nyanide @ElDeadKennedy @ooignignoktoo Streaming in general is a disaster for many, many, many reasons

You basically end up watching the same stuff if you aren't forced, like you did for TV

Having an always playing TV was super kino for playing JRPGs and stuff. Without it, I don't want to set something up that I will only half-watch. It's a me problem, but with TV, it was playing whether you liked it or not. No pause, no nothing. So you took what you get

Also content was limited, so you got what you'e got, and people around would have watched the same thing you did

#fedijobs #GetFediHired #lisp
I am contracting a Common Lisp hacker for low-level work of choice:
-better thread scheduler, coupled with bare NUMA awareness
-a compiler optimization, like moving type transformations into the backend or adding the peephole pass
-TLAB support (I have most of it written)
-Making the thing boot on real hardware with PCI device detection (i.e no skipping with no-detect or UEFI boot)
-Overall fixing the driver subsystem so things like specific device combinations in QEMU don't crash
-NVME driver (could re-use virtio-block code, probably needs the two before)
-basic GLSL->TGSI compiler (needed for Trial port)
-concurrency subsystem improvements

Will pay up to $300, XMR only (unless you live in CIS), can do upfront if you have reputationn
