I made this by the way...
My 12 year old son just made this @Tesla Roadster game from scratch by himself using AI. AI is nuts.

Devs back in the day would post some bangers 😂, came across this one while reading on libuv. widgetsandshit.com/teddziuba…

Блогер показал, что собеседование в 2026 году проходит уже без людей. Компания прислала на созвон ИИ-рекрутера, блогер в ответ подключил своего ИИ-агента и вышел из кадра. Нейросети ещё какое-то время обсуждали вакансию без людей. В конце обе зависли и начали бесконечно прощаться друг с другом.

Folks saying it's high taxes aren't being thoughtful. There's currently 2 Microsoft centers in Netherlands, they have way higher tax rates than Kenya, and yet have data centers, and a campus. In Germany they have 7, they also have higher taxes.
Microsoft is closing its Africa Development Centre (ADC) in Nairobi, Kenya, ending its engineering operations there. Note: - Employees were informed of the closure on *Monday, Oct 12, 2026* as part of Microsoft's global restructuring. - The move follows the earlier closure of the Lagos ADC in 2024. - On the same day, Microsoft execs led by Jeff Bullwinkel met with ICT CS William Kabogo. Kabogo said he stressed retaining local talent, protecting jobs, and sustaining investor confidence. - Microsoft spokesperson said the changes impacted the engineering department but the company will continue operating in Kenya and supporting customers. - The government and Microsoft are expected to develop a joint action plan on AI adoption, digitization of government services, cybersecurity, and digital skills. What's your take?

The cause is probably only known to the folks making the decisions internally, doubt it has anything to do with Kenyan economy specifically, besides the currency has been stable at ksh.130 to the dollar for more than a year now 😅. Hopefully they make the announcement officially

The History os x86: From 4004 to 486 🔗pikuma.com/blog/history-of-x… Why is x86 little-endian? Why are registers called AX, BX, CX, and DX? Why do DOS addresses use the format A000:0000, and why does the modern PC still wakes up pretending to be a chip from 1978?

仮想メモリがあるおかげで、普段の私たちは物理メモリをほとんど意識せずにプログラムを書くことができます。しかし、パフォーマンスを突き詰めようとすると、ページテーブルやTLB、ページフォルトといった、その裏側の仕組みを理解する必要があります。 プログラムが扱っているのは物理アドレスではなく仮想アドレスで、OSとCPUがページテーブルを使って実際のRAM上の位置へ変換しています。その変換を高速化するのがTLBです。通常は意識する必要がありませんが、大きなデータをランダムに読み書きするとTLBミスが増え、ページテーブルの参照まで必要になります。つまり、配列を連続して配置する、データ構造を小さくする、といった最適化が効くのは、CPUキャッシュだけでなく仮想メモリの局所性も改善するからです。 さらに問題は、一台のコンピュータの中でも物理メモリが均一ではないことです。マルチコアでは各CPUがTLBを持つため、ページテーブルの変更時には他のコアに残った情報を無効化するTLB shootdownが必要になります。NUMA環境では、同じメモリへのアクセスでもCPUから近いRAMと遠いRAMでは速度が違います。仮想メモリはこうした違いをプログラムから巧妙に隠しています。 blog.codingconfessions.com/p…

If you actually try to fully understand this, you’re about to learn wonderful things like 1. Virtual memory vs Physical Memory 2. Page table 3. Memory Management Unit (MMU) 4. Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) 5. L1/L2/L3 CPU caches 6. Cache coherence (e.g. MESI protocol) 7. False sharing 8. mmap(2)/munmap(2) And it’s hell of a rabbit hole.
You either understand this or you’re a vibe coder 🙂‍↔️
