After two years of development and some deliberation, AMD decided that there is no business case for running CUDA applications on AMD GPUs. One of the terms of my contract with AMD was that if AMD did not find it fit for further development, I could release it. Which brings us to today.

With pipes/sockets, each program has to coordinate the establishment of the connection with the other program. This is especially problematic if you want to have modular daemons, e.g. to support drop-in replacements with alternative implementations, or if you have multiple programs that you need to communicate with (each with a potentially different protocol).
To solve this problem, you want to standardize the connection establishment and message delivery, which is what dbus does.
With dbus, you just write your message to the bus. Dbus will handle delivering the message to the right program. It can even start the receiving daemon if it is not yet running.
It's a bit similar to the role of an intermediate representation in compilers.
Dunno. Haven't had the chance to try the argument.
But like, I've literally never heard someone say "jay-pheg".
Yes!
I've always been in the "jif" camp.
Now I have a new counter!
TTYD is a masterpiece.
The story, I thought, was more compelling than PM. The movement abilities were wonderful. And the graphics upgrade of the GCN is surprisingly a very welcome addition.
Just like PM, it's a bit of a slow start plot wise.
The alternative to IPv6 is CGNAT.
CGNAT is really annoying for users, since the entire ISP looks like a single IP address. This can lead to situations where the entire ISP accidentally gets classified as a bot or otherwise blocked. It's not too hard to find these kinds of stories from StarLink customers.
We are at the point where we are are legitimately out of IPv4 addresses. Household NAT isn't enough and CGNAT has too many problems. IPv6 code was written ages ago and is very stable in all OSs these days.
It really is just these legacy middle boxes holding us back.
TSA Precheck involves a background check and interview. This allows the actual screening process to be lighter.
