Hi Not the guy of the above comment but I’d like to chip in :)

I don’t know about the cache, I think I heard something about this and the answer being basically that yes more distance just makes it slower.

About the multithreading:

If the cost of creating Threads is becoming an issue look into the concept of threadpools. They are a neat way of reusing ressources and ensuring you don’t try to have more parallelism than is actually possible.

Edit: if your work is CPU bound, so the cores are actually computing all the time and not waiting on IO or networking, the rule of thumb is to not let the number of threads exceed the number of cores.

As for usecases for servers with these many cores: shared computing for example VM hosts. The amount of VMs you can sensibly host on a server is limited by the amount of cores you have. Depending on the kind of hypervisor you are using you can share cores between VMs but that’s going to make the VMs slower.

Another example of shared computing are HPC clusters where many people schedule some kind of work, the cluster allocates the ressources executes the task and returns the results to you. Having more cores allows more of these tasks to run in parallel effectively increasing the throughput of the cluster.

Which makes it 1% total. Which is a lot for one single change

Because it’s not an outrageous amount if you are one of the richest people on earth. It’s all relative.

You could build something that prevents people from being offended. Let them answer simple questions like are you offenden by . If they answer yes, no allowed to join.

That would still require posts or communities to reliably label their contents correctly right?

Maybe the only solution is sulfuric acid. (or alcohol)

I strongly belief that if we all strived to get the maximum amount of alcohol into our bellies instead of the maximum amount of money into our accounts society would be much nicer.

Yeah that was kinda my point. There isn’t a “by design” solution to people being people

I mean, I guess the point they are making: “Keeping the fediverse an enjoyable experience is hard work by design” is kind of true.

But I would be very interested in how you can exclude hate speech “by design”

Hah hahaha hahahahaha

Our school systems are admined by teachers with only half a clue of what they are doing with only a few hours per week as a budget. This isn’t meant as an offense, math teachers that like to fiddle with computers in their free time are just not qualified to run the infrastructure for schools

“im” is often used as an abbreviation of “in dem” which is the direct translation of “in the/this” but it is also used as an abbreviation of “in einem” which directly translates to “in a” and somtimes “im” is just translated as “in”

Let’s take “Der Saft ist im Glas” as an example.

If you are trying to say that it is in a specific glass that you could point to, you would use “in dem”. If you are just talking about the general method of storing juice you would either use “im” or to be more precise “in einem”. Using “in einem” tells you that it is in a glass but the actual glass isn’t really specified or relevant right now.

“Der Saft ist in einem Glas” is basically the same as “Der Saft ist im Glas”. But it is very different from “Der Saft ist in dem Glas” which is also basically the same as “Der Saft ist im Glas”.

To translate these:

“Der Saft ist in einem Glas” => “The juice is in a glass”
“Der Saft ist in dem Glas” => “The juice is in the/this glass”
“Der Saft ist im Glas” => “The juice is in the/this glass” or “The juice is in a glass”

As a bonus:

“Das passiert im echten Leben” => “That’s happening in real life”

Always fun to think about the weirdness of my mother tongue :)

Edit: These abbreviations are mostly used when the context already makes it clear which it is going to mean. Otherwise they are just confusing.

BTW you link communities starting with a ! then starting to write the name

thanks!

Nah just subscribe to ich_iel on feddit.de (how do you link communities here?

Hey Vorsicht, nicht dass noch jemand vor lachen störbt

Bevor sie ihren Tageslachkontingenterhöhungsantrag abgeben können müssen sie mit dem Formular 36A erstmal zu Frau Maier gehen und sich die Sondertageslachkontingentbewerbungsunterlagen ausstellen lassen. Damit kommen sie dann bitte wieder zu mir und wir schauen dann mal.

No. Do not contrast it. Just as you cannot use Isreali wrongdoing to excuse the terror the Hamas committed, you cannot use the terror to excuse Isreali wrongdoing.

Yes the terrorism is worse. But that is irrelevant for the topic at hand.

If your strategy is to just use dictionary words your password will have little entropy and even less so if you use grammatically correct sentences. If the attacker knows this is your strategy of choosing passwords cracking one is way easier than cracking a password that has the same length but consists of randomly chosen characters.

Your password is only safe because the attacker doesn’t know your strategy of choosing the password which forces him to use inefficient methods of cracking it, while there would be a more efficient way if he knew the strategy you used. Which is security by obscurity.

That’s just security by obscurity. It’s one other strategy of choosing passwords that a bruteforce attack is going to try if it gets popular

How did you get an axolotl in there?

I mean irseal tried occupying Gaza that also didn’t help

Unit tests are there to get an @ignore annotation!

Anymore
