Looks similar to EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN: https://sqlite.org/eqp.html

Raw EXPLAIN dumps bytecode, which is usually much more verbose than you want. EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN dumps a summary.

The beauty of open source is that you can be the change you want to see in the world.

The biggest problem with Xorg refactoring is that the entire surface area, every non-static function, is module API and there are closed-source modules everyone relies on (mostly Nvidia).

You can just open it up and take out the fan. Might experience thermal throttling or shutdown though. For extra credit, go into the BIOS and underclock it until that doesn't happen.

Wayland is designed not to support all that stuff. If you're going to reimplement X in Wayland you might as well just use X.

No, because the rule is not that excess profits must go to the buyer's country - the rule is that excess profits must go to the US.

See also the story of TikTok.

At this point, doing business in the US is an existential risk to any company.

The US is a massive economy that businesses want access to. If it wasn't extremely profitable they would exit, but they don't. That should tell you all you need to know about any "risk".

Isn't that the insurance company whose CEO was murdered because of the terrible quality of care they delivered?

Yes it is. Somehow that might appear to be incentive to improve quality of care but maybe their corporate culture is a bad fit for quality.

> that might appear to be incentive to improve quality

Their goal isn't to provide high quality care. Their goal is to increase profits. It's not hard to imagine how improved quality would lead them to spend more money. (faster diagnoses of serious illnesses and recommending expensive care)

Psychopaths don't care about other peoples pain. They only care about their own ego, power, and money. They do well in corporate cultures that reward parasitic relationships with customers. =3

Power is based on wealth extraction, not merit.

In the future that class will control the guillotines in the form of Boston Dynamics guard dogs.

Êtes-vous français?

Spoiler: the undocumented WZ registers are just microcode temporaries to hold large operands. For instance when reading a jump instruction, the jump destination can't be read directly into PC since that would mess up reading the second half of it, so it's read into WZ and then WZ is transferred to PC. This is invisible to the programmer.

One might say the instruction is really "jump to WZ", or JWZ, which, of course, refers to Jamie Zawinski (not really).

That just means you have a more exciting design problem! Now you have to stop the clock and then assert TEST for probably a certain maximum number of cycles (dynamic logic) before enabling the clock...
