Dealing with memory usage will likely require significant rewrites and architectural changes. It will take years.
The ”memory optimizations” we’ll see is the removal of features but charge the same price. Software shrinkflation. Will require same amount of memory though.
The RAM shortage will end before any meaningful memory optimizations can be made.
This is kind of how it works in countries that haven’t been infected by Amazon Prime. In Sweden for example most e-commerce is done directly from individual stores. There are aggregation sites like prisjakt which lists prices of all different stores so you can find the best deal.
It’s not perfect and maybe not as convenient as Amazon Prime, but I don’t see how a fediverse alternative could do it better.
If you haven’t logged in to your WhatsApp through any third party applications you should be fine.
it’s the kind of dependency developers install without a second thought
I got a feeling this is an attack vector that will continue to grow, as now there’s vibe coding frameworks installing random dependencies without a thought at all.

I think he idea is compelling. I don’t like to be dependent on banks for digital transactions. Being locked out from making basic transactions because the bank detected ”suspicious behavior” is just awful.
Unfortunately I hate the players of cryptocurrency even more. It’s a huge snake oil pump and dump Ponzi scheme to my eyes.
Why bundle HL3 as launch title? Feels a bit too much to develop the most memed game ever + trying to figure out the logistics of 3 new hardware products at the same time. People won’t exactly rush to buy Steam Machine for HL3 if they already have a decent PC.
From the FAQ:
Statcounter is a web analytics service. Our tracking code is installed on more than 1.5 million sites globally. These sites cover various activities and geographic locations. Every month, we record billions of page views to these sites. For each page view, we analyse the browser/operating system/screen resolution used and we establish if the page view is from a mobile device.
So yeah, they’re basing of browser user agents.
Can it be fingerprint spoofers skewing the results? In that case the data is worthless.
Not necessarily closures, but it involved many dynamically generated lists of lambdas passed around through many layers of abstraction.
True. However, in this case I believe this guy just had a weird admiration for complexity.
In my project there has been this guy who produced more lines of code than most other. All of his code is a terribly convoluted mess no one can work with. Also buggy and slow as hell. It’s been many years since he left the company, and the negative effects are still seen today.
Luckily we’ve been able to detach ourselves from the worst parts.
I have an ok relationship with my parents. Never been offended about these ”insults”.
The company also heavily used styrofoam in the renovation process, which is highly flammable.
There’s nothing more permanent than a temporary solution
My app version is up to date. Tried it a few months ago. Still black screen whenever I try to share the entire screen. Individual windows work fine. None of my coworkers have managed to make it work in Wayland.
It worked a few years ago with some workaround, but Slack patched out that workaround.
Not any more difficult than doing a fresh Windows install.
Wayland is fantastic, as long you don’t need to do screen sharing in Slack. Only thing hindering me going Wayland on my work laptop.
Linux don’t need anything to challenge Windows. Windows is doing great on their own.
