All of the protocols that have been ratified are federated. That was kind of the big thing of the internet. HTTP, SMTP (email), FTP, etc. All federated.
When people talk about defederating threads, I’m always curious why they think Net Neutrality is a bad idea, or if they’d appreciate if their email providers didn’t allow emails to Gmail because they don’t like big corporations…
Not really. ATI were always “G is for graphics” and built video games cards. They never really saw the potential (nor did they have the resources anyway) for GPGPU, which is why NVIDIA had a huge first-player advantage (CUDA is 16 years old, 2 years before AMD acquired ATI). When AMD bought them it was already very late.
Then AMD wanted to build cards for people to buy while NVIDIA was more than happy selling overpriced cards to crypto miners.
OpenCL was an ambitious project that was too big and too open for what was capable from the Khronos group. Vulkan was too late.
Intel could have done it but IIRC the CEO at that time (can’t remember the name) didn’t want to diversify their products after Itanium was a failure. They just doubled down on CPU.
Also they basically invented software keyboards. People didn’t think you could have an efficient software keyboard, even the android prototypes still had a physical keyboard for typing.

Meh. Not everything need to be deep. It’s a video games. Nobody is asking what the DOOM character backstory is. He’s there to shoot some hellspawns and that’s fun.
There’s a place for both, really.
Compiler, give me all the language extensions you have. Wait, wait. I’m worried what you just heard was, “Give me a lot of language extensions.” What I said was, “Give me all the language extensions you have.” Do you understand?
I’m not sure what you’re asking. Plenty of modern languages use the unit type; typescript, Rust, not sure you consider Haskell a modern language.
From the look of it, this language seems to use it in a function signature declaration, which would make sense.
It’s not parenthesis (in the PEMDAS sense), it’s the unit type and it’s normally expressed like that. If you’re not familiar with type systems, it’s the typing equivalent of void.
His trolling what?
Did she try to break them off? Yokoing the band?
The reverse Roko’s Basilisk… interesting gambit.
If the bots are welcomed and they don’t have good enough moderation, this is just sketchy content with extra steps.
There’ll always be extremes to communities. Just remember they’re not the average.
Yeah I don’t think fans ever thought it was important or even a bad thing.
We’re just having fun trying to make it fit. But it’s for fun, not like we truly believe there really is a timeline that makes any sense.
Just turn your monitor around, jeez!
Tomahto, Tomayto.
Tell them. Many people don’t know about FHS. Seriously, just the person I was answering to was giving credit to some rando who copy pasted an image from the Linux foundation.
I’ve been educating people on this all my professional life. I try to make a change with the people around me, but I’ve also filed big to some FOSS projects that got it wrong. Some did the change, some were unwilling. But it’s unknown if even those did follow the right convention in their next project.
The FHS was started in 1994 and is free to use. It should be used now by all major Linux systems and most Unix too.
The only credit is to the Linux Foundation.

So you agree?
