I enjoy things around information theory (and data compression), complexity theory (and cryptography), read hard scifi, currently work on weird ML (we'll see how it goes), am somewhat literal minded and have approximate knowledge of random things. I like when statements have truth values, and when things can be described simply (which is not exactly the same as shortly) and yet have interesting properties.
I live in the largest city of Switzerland (and yet have cow and sheep pastures and a swimmable lake within a few hundred meters of my place :)). I speak Polish, English, German, and can understand simple Swiss German and French.
If in doubt, please err on the side of being direct with me. I very much appreciate when people tell me that I'm being inaccurate. I think that satisfying people's curiosity is the most important thing I could be doing (and usually enjoy doing it). I am normally terse in my writing and would appreciate requests to verbosify.
I appreciate it if my grammar or style is corrected (in any of the languages I use here).

@kravietz do you know what rate of change of power of will support (or e.g. if it's going to have gray control rods)?
@dunkelstern wofür nutzt du diese Metallleisten, die quer eingebaut sind?
@kravietz the article talks about per-blade power supplies, which I think eliminates the possibility that it's about head turning
Even if you can't turn the head, you can always turn each blade individually into the wind (though this might be out of the range of is normal motion).
To be fair, it needs electricity but doesn't need grid power. (Though I'd still expect the whole setup to be backdriveable and actively held so that wind would turn it to neutral on power loss.)
@davidaugust obviously former, because occlusion from the forehead
@freemo @jenny_wu Taken very literally, "X should be murdered" is not a threat: it's simply a statement about a world you'd prefer to live in. Obviously that approach makes no sense, because then well-understood codes speech becomes a way to skirt around any laws prohibiting threats.
If one tries to include various coded threats, then the statement itself is not enough to detemine whether it's a threat: the whole point of coded speech is to make it easy to read for intended recipients and hard to convincingly convey to others, so it relies on lots of context.

MORPHOTROPHIC, a new novel in 2024.
In a world where the cells that make up our bodies are not committed to any one organism, Marla is confronted by the fickleness of her cytes, and resolves to understand them with help from a centuries-old Flourisher. Swappers like Ruth embrace fluidity, and meet with others to exchange cytes, seeking the perfect mix. But Ruth faces her own crisis, and as the technology to manipulate cytes advances, all three are drawn into a struggle to shape the future of life.
Coming in March 2024.
@CodingItWrong @bitcrush_io js-less site couldn't use local storage
Nice image :)
Something kept nagging me in this picture, until I realized that the reflected aircraft would be oriented somewhere between perpendicular and head-on to the pilot's aircraft, which would be very rare and would involve a very high closing speed so I was weirded out by lack of blur.

Ah, ich habe die zwei verwechselt. Danke fürs Korrektur.
@koakuma so you know which thread dies?
@sarah_ist_muede @Martin__Hope@sueden.social
Wenn ich von https://sueden.social/@Martin__Hope/111302066716135118 ausgehe, die Hausärzte sind beigezogen und das Arztbesuchwahrscheinlichkeit soll die Ergebnisse beeinflussen. Ist diese Beschreibung unpräzis, oder mein Denken fehlerhaft?
@Martin__Hope@sueden.social ich befürchte, dass die Senkung auf die Festtage basieren könnte: es ist jetzt schwerer Hausarzt zu errichen. Gibt es Gründe, die solche Befürchtungen grundlos machen?
Documentation claims that I recall correctly how it works but also says that it does so "on some OSes" and doesn't say what happens on other OSes: https://sourceware.org/gdb/current/onlinedocs/gdb.html/All_002dStop-Mode.html
So I guess it can quietly not work?
@koakuma hm~ so it might be broken/broken for early enough stuff on sparc64. (Or I'm wrong about how it works.)
/me goes to read docs
@koakuma wait, it doesn't crash with scheduler locking and breakpoint set? That shouldn't make any difference, so if so I'm wrong somewhere and I don't know where.
Huh, I wonder if this is platform-specific. I'm starting to have suspicions that TLS might be broken in some way. Were it not for your sched-locked observation I'd also suspect disagreement between clang and libc on how to implement different memory orders on that CPU (e.g. on x86_64 there are two ways to implement c++ memory model which are incompatible with one another and basically everyone picks one of them).
@koakuma unless I totally forgot how scheduler-locking works this narrows down everything to one kind of race condition: where you need some other thread to take action early enough or the main thread dies. (Iirc doing what you've done means that only the main thread runs.)
