Congrats!
Congrats!
Chrome lets you flush the socket pool manually, that was sufficient
Ok I KNOW that keepalive is a cornerstone of http/2 and for like 99.999% of cases you want connection reuse. That being said is there any browser at all that allows you disable keepalive behavior? I just want to test something ๐ญ
Dang, thatโs way better than my dishwasher!!
Damn! I just hit 300 today
Lastly, computers are cool as hell and I love learning about them
This is more obvious, but - if, instead of hard-coding the stride lengths in code, we read them as command-line args, the compiler loses the ability to optimize the stride=1 case as aggressively. In this case also, stride=1 takes ~2x as long to run as stride=16.
Stumbled upon something else related to this experiment. Seems as though the `stride=1` case is as fast as `stride=16` largely because of autovectorization. Compiling with `-C opt-level=z` shows that it really takes 2x as long for `stride=1`, apples-to-apples (`stride=16` is never autovectorized)
I have no idea how widespread this is or is going to be, but on a recent 15hr flight I had great Starlink-powered WiFi for free, for pretty much the whole duration. I would have paid for this without hesitation.
Too kind! Thank you for taking the time to read and leave feedback!
I didnโt end up experimenting with it, but I thought about including a section on trying to madvise around the issue! Maybe another quick addition to the appendix ๐ค
This is a paid series, but Casey Muratori talks a lot about that specific disconnect here:

Iโm hoping to write more this year, so if you read this please let me know what you think!
I was trying to reproduce a simple benchmark recently and it sent me down on a side quest to better understand a small part of how computers manage memory.
I did a little write-up here:

I love @tldraw.com
Hooked up to the internet (for free!) via Starlink on a 15hr flight is so sweet ๐ speeds are entirely respectable, Iโm actually getting a LOT of work done
Thought it might be fun to reproduce the results in this great article from 15(!) years ago

Even reproโing the first example (and making mistakes) has taught me so much about memory access patterns.
Working on a write up!
compression claims another victim
I like this shot of todayโs misty morning cruise along the Kinabatangan river
(I know nothing about photography, I shot this on my iPhone in cinematic mode with no post-processing)
Sunday side-quest: fixing LSP support for a framework Iโve never used for a language I rarely use in an editor I sometimes use. Is this the curse of holiday programming?
This isn't exactly what you were looking for, I think - but if you're just doing some local testing (eg: using test accounts with fake email accounts), I was able to run MailHog on the same machine to good effect (also can view sent emails via browser).

Hi! As a big fan of your other work, Iโd love to participate in this, if itโs open to the public.
(I canโt seem to DM you)
Did a little data wrangling for a little side-quest at work and it was... fun? Frustrating, but fun (in the end)
I'd love to read this!
Agree! As someone building tools (more for my own edification than anything else) on top of atproto, it feels like thereโs a DX layer missing. Iโve been able to scrounge around other repos to learn what I need, but a cohesive SDK would go a long way in enabling more people to build on atproto
Trying something very new - I wrote a really tiny blog post
tverghis.bearblog.dev/local-emails...
Iโm hoping to continue jotting down all the neat tools, findings and learnings I come across as I stumble through my projects. Let me know what you think!
Today's small win: set up my own PDS that's going to be a test-bed for fun experiments/tools (and it actually works!). To be fair, the instructions github.com/bluesky-soci... made it incredibly easy. Took longer to set up the mail service
That was fun! Thanks for sharing this game!
