Isn't it a bit naive to declare that, just because Lua created a new minor version, it should be somehow better? The author of LuaJIT has often written his arguments, including why he disagrees with the changes to the language, why they should have been implemented as libraries instead, that in his view LuaJIT is still more performant and more widely used than PUC Lua, and more.

As for forking, you can try, but I would warn you that one does not simply fork LuaJIT. Required is deep expertise in tracing JIT compilers, in assembly and in many different computer architectures. Nobody was really up to the task when Mike Pall announced that he was searching for a maintainer, before his eventual return.

You can learn them now, but you will forget them soon. That was the point, I believe.

A new language every year. A language I had intended to learn. Using a different programming paradigm, or a paradigm which I have not used recently.

It is good to fix bugs, but in my team we need neither the "points system” for bugs nor the leaderboard showing how many points people have. We are against quantifying.

I think 418 is 'I am a teapot' so it would not be correct to use it in your case. 719 must be a typo though, perhaps it should be 419.

25 Gigabit networking is mentioned in the video. As for the low density, it might have something to do with their mentioned freecooling concept, which does not use cooling machines, but a controlled stream of air coming from outside.

From my experience, SQLite's FTS5 is orders of magnitude more performant than that, i.e. for 100K documents, 7 queries/second on some of the cheapest 1 vCPU Virtual Machines.

But it is true that a specialized search engine using a more clever algorithm might be another order of magnitude faster.

Small example from CZMQ - High-level C Binding for ZeroMQ: http://czmq.zeromq.org/manual:zgossip . Perhaps not self-contained, one might have to read the manual of other resources, such as zactor, zsock or of the application Zyre - Local Area Clustering for Peer-to-Peer Applications https://github.com/zeromq/zyre .

Is there not a legal way to fight this back? With this patent application, someone is trying to establish an advantage *against everyone else*. So legally, anyone might have self-interest to sue the applicant, if the application is fraudulent (because for example it is a stolen 200-year-old mathematical method). I mean, such patent applications should not be a freeroll, they should also entail some risk for the applicant.

I find the notion that propagandists only control the flow of information in countries like Russia, China, Iran - but they don't in the West - misguided at best.

What difference, at this point, does it make? The EU has already surrendered any notion of sovereignty to the US in the fields of military and energy.

Perhaps, but running on an 2010 Atom, you don't even get to press the play button of a video within one minute. That was the point, I believe.

Wikipedia writes: Maxima is based on a 1982 version of Macsyma

Perhaps because it has such a long history and because this was published in a Lisp website, Maxima was considered known.

Though even if you build it, someone might eventually make you an offer you cannot refuse.

That is a healthy attitude. I wonder if everyone "missing" AoC has already solved all the past problems.

And if you really needed 99.99%, you would be wise to avoid the hyperscalers: see AWS' recent multi-hour long outage.

Hetzner is also a cloud. You avoid buying hardware, you rent it instead. You can rent either VMs or dedicated servers, but in both cases you own nothing.

This sounds just about right: I have read that Kubernetes is the greek term for "more containers than customers".

it is one of their cousins

> TXT "google-site-verification=TTrl7IWxuGQBEqbNAz17GKZzS-utrW7SCZbgdo5tkk0" just to clarify, this part is not evil, it is just a compromise one makes to prevent Gmail from classifying outgoing email as spam (I think).

> Lua is the glue when sh/bash doesn't suffice.

I enjoy Lua and use it professionally, but when bash (and AWK) don't suffice, the glue is Perl. Because it has pipes which you can use to connect the output of one command to the input of another, or to a file.

I meant rather the genetics which have defined your intelligence

I just write HTML directly (and use GitHub pages)

> There is no "genetic" or inherited talent here

No, genetics is a crucial requirement. Not everyone can do those things.

Sounds like they need rules that state you are only allowed in if you actually want to use the library for its intended purpose.

> Doubling the storage on a base server, often increases the price of your server by 50 to 75%

For storage, Hetzner does offer Volumes, which you can attach to your VM and you can choose exactly how large you want them to be and are charged separately. But your argument about doubling resources and doubling prices still holds for RAM.

But this might require too much effort from the reviewer

Rather because some people parked their Teslas on public roads and later found them vandalized.

May I ask, if there is a movie where English people speak English, French people speak French, and German people speak German, is there a software that can generate subtitles in English, French and German without translating anything? I mean, just record what it hears.
