This was the most absolutely retarded idea ever thought of and the kernel devs made the right decision to not only block this from being introduced into the Kernel but to go so far as to ban some lf the creators to ever contribute again
Imagine unironically using HAM radio for game voice chat instead of Discord and using this technology. Quality wise it would be back to the 2009 Call of Duty days.
it is interesting if the decoding is not resource hungry to implement it in a microchip based sound chip emulation for 80s style retro computing to replace SP256-AL or TMS-5200 systems but achieve a similar compression characteristic. a certain artificial characteristic for retro game computing is still needed. the question is, if 16-bit or 32-bit fixed point is enough for the decoding. not sure what a raspberry pi pico can do.
Funny joke in 2014: "Lenart works for redhat. Redhat who according to slashdot in the 90's is the microsoft of linux. So when microsoft hires 'satan' to work on linux ..." 2023: hold my beer
@@NoNameAtAll2 haha, no I am not connected to some conferences. I just uploaded such videos to give them a bigger audience using youtube as a platform 😉
Best 15 mins . None other video are precise like yours. I have seen videos with hours n hours of content but this was more useful for a sys ops person like me.
Hi! I'm the presenter of this talk and I did not authorise this re-upload. There are many, many other places people can (and have!) commented on it and I'd very much prefer that the Linux.conf.au upload be the one people go to. Please remove this version.
Hi! I would also prefer one place for content only and just fyi I love the work done on systemd and use it everywhere. When I uploaded conference videos it was either a) to increase visibility because not all of them upload to youtube or b) because comments are often disabled. If I see inappropriate comments of any kind I delete them as soon as possible without hesitation, but I also try to be tolerant to different opinions or preferences. I see a trend to disable comments in general (not only on ru-vid.com/show-UCciKHCG06rnq31toLTfAiyw ) and I don't like it to be honest. I don't know if it's done because people don't want to spend time moderating, there being too much hate speech overall or both. RU-vid is a social media platform but it's crippled because discussions need to happen elsewhere. I understand your re-upload criticism, but I think the same problem applies to the comments/discussions. It will be all over the internet instead of close to the video/source. I am not a lawyer and don't want any fighting over this or violate anyone's rights, so if you still insist on me removing this, so be it. Waiting for your response.
Comments were disabled because RU-vid's moderation is painful, primarily. It's also such a contentious topic that having "open slather" commenting tends to not be that productive. If there were a bunch of conversations happening here then I'd be sorry to lose them but as it is I'd probably prefer if you remove this one. Thanks for your understanding.
The one with the glasses and asking about being a homosexual is a homosexual. He doesn’t understand that he is a homosexual and can’t be public with it. Conceded.
That shite bald head is an idiot. What about the Russian files. He seems quite stupid........he whoever he is seems like an uneducated fool and is trying to represent? Shut the fuck up
Not meaning to disrespect anybody (especially famous developers, much above my league, such as the presenter) but sometimes when I hear C devs 'discovering the wonders' of things like design patterns, good practices, SOLID principles, even IDEs... I wonder where they have been all these years. I'm a Java dev and perhaps I'm ignorant about the quirks of doing software engineering in C, but all those abstract concepts have been around for decades. People use them, even beginners, and no, it's not difficult in Java to separate layers, be it the model from the UI. I worked for a little time in a C team, doing some C myself, and despite the fact that those guys were clever and experienced, and very capable really, I was shocked to see that they were not really doing any software engineering beyond programming; in fact, they didn't look like taking it seriously, all that "abstract stuff". Very little architecture, very little design patterns, not really a lot of thought was into writing code that is mainteinable and readable. They weren't they kind of guys that would care crap about splitting a 150 loc function into 6 or 7 smaller functions for readability - and that turned to be a problem in the long run, no matter if C. Well, that's my (biased) experience.
QT is C++, Mozilla has build a better language than C++ named Rust Language. Mozilla is busy rewriting Firefox in RUST. I think QT should invest in Rust Language because. Yes i like C++ but it has fundamental mistakes that can't be fixed. Rust = all lesson learned from all programming languages of the past 50 years into one language.
The unsafe keyword is the ultimate refutation of Rust being a language that gives you "control" like C/C++. In order to do some things at the lower-level you simply need the ability to do unsafe things.
I had the same intuition as you at first, luckily for us developers it doesn't apply in practice; Rust stays on top of its game in performance in most benchmark (around +/-2% from C) and feels safer overall. Major libs (tokio, serde) have around 10% of unsafe LoC. Even less when you built on top. Pretty cool, isn't it?
Yes, and that's the reason there is the unsafe keyword in Rust. But what you're not understanding is that unsafe is used very seldomly. Most crates have not one unsafe block, and even the ones that do, it's always wrapped in a safe abstraction
You don't need to do unsafe things. In certain circumstances you may need to do things that the compiler can't prove to be safe - and if you do, you have to mark those passages with the unsafe keyword. Sure, at that point you're basically at C/C++ level - except that there's a clearly delimited scope of where extra caution is required - in an overall structure that's probably a lot easier to reason about than any C/C++ program of similar complexity.
Useful insights - Especially as I am about to try and unravel a problem where Mint displays at 1024x768 from USB but only allows 640x480 when installed (may be specific to SiS video). I'll be looking for those tools !
Fellow computer people, don't fake laughter, ever. I know, these confs are like the only time of year we get to socialize and talk to people that actually are interested in our stuff. Still, please be genuine. Last thing we need in our communities is this managerial sort of fakery
