New blog post! Debugging a rustc segfault using some very cool illumos debugging tools.
Really excited about this one, it is a bit long but there was so much to cover, from how the stack and the heap works to virtual address permissions :D

There's a project that has been going around today that uses an LLM to insult someone based on their GitHub profile. I admit I got caught up in the "fun" of this, and didn't think about how sad it is that we think it's cool to tear down each other or even ourselves.
Until I came across this contrasting project by @cadey, which instead uses an LLM to praise someone based on their GitHub profile: praise-me.fly.dev/

New video!
So you're new to Linux, and you're wondering what the what is an ISO file? Or maybe you just don't know why you can't DD a CD?
Here's a video that explains a bit about ISO files, and how to create flash media from them.

Anyone who claims one shouldn't talk about other options because *thing* exists.. is just wrong.
It's weird that this happens in computing discourse, because relying 100% on one thing always leads to tears eventually.
Even weirder when it happens in FOSS circles, as FOSS is supposed to be all about alternatives and freedom of choice. It's like a few people actively want there to be monopolies? (Assuming it's not people from a project shilling for themselves of course.)
#curl's 265th command line option is called --skip-existing. Lets you completely skip a download if there is a local file present already.

With this option, the entire download is skipped if the selected target filename already exists when the operation is about to begin. Also works fine with "globs". code documentation test cases...GitHub

SCAM ALERT: Data centers bring practically zero local jobs. They are a tax break scam everywhere they operate.
"Washington lawmakers approved a tax break for data centers to create more jobs in rural Washington, but they can’t say how many jobs the state actually got. Repeated expansions turned a modest program to bring a budding industry to rural areas into one of the biggest corporate tax giveaways in the state."

A Tax Break for Washington Data Centers Promised Jobs. Is It Paying Off?
Companies have saved $474 million since 2018, with most of the windfall going to Washington-based tech giant Microsoft. Lawmakers repeatedly expanded who qualifies, and they lowered the number of jobs expected in return.ProPublica

This initiative calls to require publishers that sell or license videogames to consumers in the European Union (or related features and assets sold for videogames they operate) to leave said videogames in a functional (playable) state.
To be successful, a European citizens' initiative has to reach one million statements of support as well as minimum thresholds in at least 7 countries.

If you’re a feed reader developer/contributor and want to help thousands of sites with misconfigured server caching reduce their hosting costs:
- Support conditional-GET with
Last-Modified
headers. - Support conditional-GET with
ETag
headers. - Support the RSS
ttl
element in feed markup. - Support the syndication module in feed markup.
- Request compressed formats (gzip and Brotli; Zstd is also becoming available now). libcurl should have support, if you’re using that.
Seirdy reshared this.
Feeds are some of the most-requested pages on a lot of sites, and full-text feeds are often rather large. The feed-paging module helps but not everyone aggressively pages since client support is limited.
I like the idea of having one feed containing everything I’ve written, even if it isn’t the default feed. A single-file archive of my site optimized for feed readers. But if my default feed becomes paginated (the Brotli-compressed version is approaching 300kb; I’ll paginate it once it crosses 500kb), I’ll want my alternate unpaginated full-text feed to have very conservative refreshing.
I imagine a hypothetical future in which I host my site on a single-board computer on a home internet connection, and I build my site for that use-case.
