Back in January I gave a talk at Jane Street with the title "Are Mutexes Slow?". I also gave a lightning version of the same talk at Rustikon last week. The longer Jane Street version is now up on YouTube for anyone interested in some of the details about CPU cache coherence and the cost of coordination!

What's the best laptop Apple ever made? For me, the 11" Air. Let me know, then also hear what @ActionRetro, @thisdoesnotcomp, @mrmacintosh, Computer Clan, @mac84tv, and @branchus had to say this #MARCHintosh! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpPIrmZB828

Hi #fediverse. We need to talk about something.

While talking to a colleague about how I recently learned most people have never sat on a cow it came up that she has never sat on a horse. Like, not even once during childhood.

Another colleague admitted they also have never sat on a horse.

My hypothesis is that most people have at one point in their life sat on a horse.

I think one of the funniest things is how frontier labs spout how AI is writing their code, but the reality is that the products they ship are buggy, resource hungry messes. It's kind of the worst advertisement ever for both their products and their worldview.
