Chris MartinArchaic: manual memory management
Modern: garbage collection
New hotness: fuck it, leak memory like it's the end of the world, most users won't stay on the page very long
Chris Agocs@chris_martin Make sure there's enough memory that your missile will reach its target before it OOMs.
@agocs it's fine, as long as it's flying high, the OOM killer will kills the flight controller, it'll drop a little, systemd will restart the process and it'll correct and keep going until it runs out of memory again
@chris_martin "The missile will probably reach its target, unless it runs out of memory in the last few seconds of flight. Lockheed predicts the chances of this happening are 1 in 50, maybe better."
@agocs just send two
@chris_martin That only works if memory leaks aren't deterministic. Gotta be two from different places.
@agocs problem solved
@chris_martin Yay engineering!
