What is @stjepang (author of Rust's unstable sort, and many other contributions) doing now?


Alcohol consumption is by choice by adults, where as sugar consumption is not - children's food are mostly sugary items today in the market. They get addicted by the time they are teenagers, and for many of them (30% or above of all the kids), due to resulting obesity, rest of their lives are spent fixing/fighting it - depression and health issues.


Alcoholism is like 50% genetic.


Now that alternate registries to crates.io is available, hoping artifactory could add support for rust... - https://www.jfrog.com/jira/browse/RTFACT-13469


Note that Rust has supported mirroring ("source replacement") for a while now. https://doc.rust-lang.org/nightly/cargo/reference/source-rep...

This feature is for alternate registries that _supplement_ crates.io



Looks like thats a site for notifying you of new dependencies?

I think I'd prefer PRs like https://dependabot.com/


C++ 17 Networking TS is based on ASIO. It will be very interesting if netty performs better than ASIO based code for the same task.


They both use epoll underneath. Netty will likely perform better because it has a robust thread pool implementation.


Would suggest to look at how thread pooling works in ASIO before making conclusions.


Brotli is available in this graph - https://github.com/facebook/zstd/blob/master/images/DCspeed5...

This seems to be slightly old doc - from April.


If you are talking about networking TS based on boost:asio, it is much more than just networking. It is a full fledged multi threading library.


G had to do it. Compare Windows Phone 8 to Android - Dual core WP8 phones were better or equal in performance compared to quad core Androids! Had compared Lumia920 with SGS3 few months back.


My pet peeve with Android is drawing apps. I bought a ZTE Open with FirefoxOS, and the first thing that struck me is that the very first drawing app I tried on a low end phone like that totally trounced every (I've tested at least two dozen) drawing app I've tested on my far faster Android phone.

On every single one of them, the brush ends up lagging ridiculously far behind my finger even with quite slow strokes, while on the FirefoxOS phone, I hardly noticed the lag unless I did fast sweeps or used a stylus (there is lag there but usually small enough that if using a finger, my fingertip obscures it)


On Windows Phone 8 everything is native, even .NET code.
