In colloquial computing Finnish the work for a cache is "kakku", because it's similar in pronunciation. Kakku means "cake". Thus, in Finnish people ask each other how much cake their CPU has.

Language is funny.

after quitting consumer social media i found this site again: https://thedailywtf.com/articles/totally-valid

Co-authored an update from the @MastodonEngineering team with my friend @renchap - a sneak peek at what is coming in 4.3 (and looking ahead from there). We'll aim to make these updates a regular feature for the blog. Let us know what you think! #MastodonAPI #SpreadMastodon https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2024/05/trunk-tidbits-april-2024/

IMHO, good way to protest against bully business practices of AI: exit the most consumer oriented social media. I think it was good time finally quit Facebook fully given the trends. I'm not perfect. I.e. I have still some commercial social media like Slack, Youtube and BlueSky but at least the most heated stuff is gone, or I never was there anyway.

E.g. I think I continue to build my career without LinkedIn, and find the jobs that fit me better through traditional methods of job finding (talking to friends, getting contacted by friend, sending queries and the usual). It is time to go #offtheradar :-)

I wish there was USB-stick that would send one single key press when the button is pressed. That's all it would do.

OK, so WFI on RISC-V is not detemistic! It can be same as HLT (x86) or WAIT (ARM) but could also be nop 🤷 Beyond me tbh. #riscv

Everyone should immediately stop contributing to the stack overflow and its network. The human touch is what made it unique. Delete your profile from SO AND all your answers. Freeloaders are making money out of human contributions.

Extremely incredibly annoying that google removed the cached page feature. Crazy decision. Sigh.

One could claim that people should get salary for being in social media sites like #Facebook and #Instagram, and for any possible content, e.g. a cat video or random rant like this.

Right now the cash flows is for e.g. Facebook something like:

1. Users produces raw content.
2. Facebook processes data into assets with momentary value.
3. Facebook trades with these assets in various profit generating ways.

User is a staff member in this scheme with total zero salary. And some say Amazon factory jobs are crap…

So how can this work as a business model? I have zero idea but neither current business model works for my benefit. It is a loosing game.

I don’t know how advisable this is but it did the job 🤷

Great, #TPM bus protection is ready to be applied: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-integrity/D10E68XSE1FV.1XZL0Z6TV7DWX@kernel.org/

vm-memory is really cool and should be IMHO part of stdlib :-) best way to map files and other memory so far in #Rust.

Some project types where you absolutely need memory mapped I/O are:

• Operating Systems
• Database Management Systems
• Virtual Machine Managers
• Game Engines
• Digital Audio Workstations

I.e. anything with high scalability, high availability and in real-time processing low latency.
