Better than what?

As a topic newbie I ask: what CPUs is this assembly targeted for? Why would I learn an assembly for a old CPU and use I with an emulator when I could learn assembly for modern CPUs and let it run on the metal?

Sometimes I really wonder what Google has against Ruby.

> python is unfortunately the only realistic option.

But why not just use Opal for that?

Nice. I wish RobinHood was available in other countries too rather than just US.

Until you can't make 3D, I wouldn't claim that. Sadly this is not possibile with Ruby yet.

But anyway nice intro into Gosu.

compared to?

I invented a coffee machine which works using 10000 times less power: it works by deferring the actual coffee making to another machine you plug into another wall socket.

This article seems to me a self reassuring post written by the author after he suffered himself the JS fatigue.

For someone who never played Fallout, what do you recommend playing first?

I've also read about "Restoration Project" mods and I am bit confused.

Upwork has lately become a big PITA, banning freelancers for "not generating enough profit".

Please check comments at https://screenshotmonitor.com/blog/upwork-vs-freelancer-cont...

What freelancing platform can you advice as an alternative, or which one are you using?

Eh, too late, maybe admins can help?

What's amb?

Nah, I just like good music. If you don't, you can't understand this.

How?

What are the most effective measures a British citizen could take right now to escape this surveillance?

Go check last.fm, I've written other comments about it here but I am not trying to spam, I am just trying to share what I think it's still the best resource for discovering music you should listen to.

Same, I've always used last.fm for discovering quality music and after it came back to life (after a period in which it was not working) I kept using it as my main source.

I am surprised to see how no one is talking about it here.

You have missed last.fm probably.

How is that different from last.fm ?

Spotify really sucks for discovery! After 4 songs you will be listening to vague (not tailored) musical hits that seems to be recommended by someone discovering music for the first time. Pathetic!

Is anyone ignoring the existence of last.fm (with regards to music discovery only)?

To me it's has always been the best recommendation engine ever, hands down, compared to all others (Spotify, Deezer, ecc).

It works by tracking what users with similar tastes are actually listening to (they call this feature scrobbling) which allows them to provide further recommendations and let you adventure on unexplored territory.

Then on your profile you will have a YouTube player playing all those recommendations, or a custom tag, genre, and so on.

It also has a great community where you can see how much you are musically compatible with other users.

I did not know what.cd.

Reading the comments here, it seems this service represented for many what to me is last.fm, with regards to music discovery only (not downloads).

How was what.cd different from last.fm, with regards to that aspect? I think last.fm has always had the best tagging and recommendation engine ever, easily crashing Spotify and the alike, even today (I hate Spotify recommendations, after 4th song you will listen at rubbish).

Last.fm also allows to see compatibility with other members based on your tastes, (I understand this aspect was a big part in what.cd).

Actually I think Last.fm was the "first Spotify" ever. 10 years ago they were hosting music on their server and had a premium plan but back then it didn't work. Instead of shutting down they decided to remain as a recommendation engine and community, embedding music from Youtube.

Does anyone uses it here? Any opinion on how the two compare?

You can: unvote and reupvote.

I don't think everyone likes depending on Java.

Of course Aaron was joking at that point.

Elixir is not a faster Ruby, it's a completely different beast which only shares some syntactical constructs and keywords.

In fact what they said is that AOT only helps in the startup phase, making it 30% faster.
