Re: Stop using US controlled software stacks!!!
"gcc -fanalyzer" will fundamentally change safety of C programs, such as Linux, GNOME, DQlite (distributed SQLite), Cython, Python, Crystal, Ruby, NIM, ZIG, Vala/Genie ... but also the C compiled version of PicoLisp ... https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2020/03/26/static-analysis-in-gcc-10/ Plenty of proactive security patches are coming out now minutely, which vastly improve complete Linux environment. Sadly, Microsoft does _not profit_ from the magic abilities of that new flow analyzer in GCC. Windows, Office ... all written in C++! :-D Have fun! Am Dienstag, 28.

It’s hard to predict cache behavior without an actual workload, so i would recommend using cachegrind with a real program (not a benchmark) to evaluate the cost of doing things one way or the other.

Well, there is the possibility that you record the presentation in advance, or that you use slides that somebody would push for you. I'm sure there are plenty of options. That's something that should be explored based on the presenter's constraints I guess.

Certainly. But how is it *implemented* internally? Mostly you suffer massive performance loss when prepending, because complete linked list gets moved to a new place in memory. If internal representaion ist a double cell, one value, pointer to next, then you quickly suffer CPU cache misses. Wild jumps across memory with upto 18 CPU waitstates for random access.

Re: PilCon 2020
Hi Guys, I agree with Christophe. It's best to organize a rehearsal way ahead of the actual event to give ourselves time to debug problems and investigate alternatives in case the proposed approach fails. And perhaps having pre-recorded presentations (if only as backups) would put us on the safe side.

Re: EU Lisp online now
Yes, It started yesterday. The approach to streaming and scaling is based on pre-recorded talks by the speakers. Initially there was talk about making it fully interactive and live, but the organizers decided we don't really have the infrastructure to support that many people simultaneously. The first day of ELS (Monday) proved that, while there's nothing like meeting face-to-face, being able to meet *at all* is still cool and worthwhile.

Re: PilCon 2020
Dear List, My experience using Jitsi with Firefox wasn't good. I tried to attend an online meeting with FF 71 and I managed to crash the server. Apparently this is Firefox's fault though for not supporting all necessary features of WebRTC. Unfortunately for me there is no alternative ATM. NetBSD has only FF in packages (both on aarch64 and amd64). I'd like to use the Jitsi Android app, but I don't know how to use an USB headset with either my phone or a tablet. Maybe an analog headphone and the device's microphone is the way to go. I don't feel up to compiling Chrom{e, ium} myself. I would be grateful for any hints. TIA. Love, -- Alexander Am 28.
