It would be sometimes useful if #QEMU w/o libvirt could interpret domain XML to some level.

Like for instance if you want to CI kernel, that would be one use case for this.

For the sake of example, here’s the QEMU command-line that I use as starting point for any kernel testing/CI:

qemu-system-x86_64 \
  -M pc \
  -monitor unix:monitor.sock,server,nowait \
  -serial unix:serial.sock,server,wait \
  -drive file=disk.img,if=virtio,format=raw \
  -net nic,model=virtio \
  -net user,hostfwd=tcp::10022-:22 \
  -rtc base=localtime \
  -nographic \
  -chardev socket,id=chrtpm,path=${SWTPM_DIR}/swtpm-sock \
  -tpmdev emulator,id=tpm0,chardev=chrtpm \
  -device ${QEMU_TPM_DEVICE},tpmdev=tpm0 \
  -bios /usr/share/edk2/ovmf/OVMF_CODE.fd \
  "$@"

These people are not real. Just like from some bad 70s/80s B films. I bet he does "evil laughter" in front of mirror or something o_O https://edition.cnn.com/2024/08/15/politics/russ-vought-project-2025-trump-secret-recording-invs/index.html

First pull request in preparation after holidays and it is over two weeks past. I blame all those nasty interviews ;----)

@vitaut Tbh, this would apply better on Rust than C++, given that usually C++ developers do not impose blind trust on compiler ;-)

I had also NVidia interview this week (which went well but I decided to took a position already offered elsewhere) and in that interview I was asked stuff about virtual memory.

Without going details on questions concerning I said that security USED to be a property why we use virtual memory ;-) Now it is the place inhabited by the seasonal flu with its various generations, i.e. Spectre.

If you want to feel how it feels to make hole with a street drill to your skull, try watching Project 2025 videos uncut ;----) Was an epic failure

@guenther GPL has been exercised in court successfully in the court in the past. It is more about can you project it back to the original source code. I don’t know. [Or could you trick AI in adversary manner to learn code that is ”watermarked”]

Or is the attitude more like "we don't care, see you in court"?

I wonder how these AI crawlers verify that the code they feed to LLM is not copyleft licensed? Like GPL for instance? It could mean huge legal risks for companies, if fragments can be later on identified.

Given all layoffs this feels actually the most safe landing to a new job in my career. During better times in economy I'd be worried when things will fall apart next time, and shit hits the fan ;-) We're already at the bottom of the pit...

I don't know what it is but if I have interview with 20 minutes live coding I sleep for the rest of the day. Does not have to be that complex task, super exhausting. Last week I had like two of those and one technical interview, not much else accomplished.

I really would like to test out GCC-Rust. What would be the easy path? I'm using Fedora across the board in my Linux systems.
