No two active pointers from malloc will have the same value. The call malloc(0) returns a valid pointer rather than null.
An improvement over the way #Linux does it, IMO. #Plan9
The Plan 9 Foundation has announced that we will not be accepting AI submissions for IWP9 2027.

Não, não estamos querendo mandar nenhum de vocês pro Hades (segundo os gregos antigos), a geena (o lago de fogo e enxofre, que está no Apocalipse da Bíblia) ou o Tártaro (não o molho, que é bom). Mas queremos te contar sobre esse sistema operacional, de nome... Curioso. Continue com a gente pra saber qual

Is there any way to say "open these four windows (four different programs) with these geometries and positions" in #KDE #Plasma #Wayland?
I always open the same four programs (Signal, NeoChat, KDE Connect SMS, SimpleNote) in the same workspace when I boot up after a reboot every Monday (more often now, thanks AIn't security "researchers" :P )
Most programs remember the geometry, but only Simplenote seems to remember the position.
I've gotten it down to a pretty quick exercise using some of the custom keybinds I set up in Plasma, along with the popup menu -> more -> move and the arrow keys, but automating it like you can do in #plan9 or (IIRC) X11 would be neat. ;)
It might look like a hack, but it demonstrates that theoretically we can have some 2D acceleration over the network and why not some remote 3D acceleration. We probably can have a #Plan9 alternative to Stadia over #9p.
