WikiLambda, backend for Wikifunctions, rewrites itself from Node.js (!!) to Rust
  • True, I didn't structure my sentence correctly.

    It gets to compete with Java and Python because it's also JIT is what I meant to say.

  • Absolutely, it's just one aspect of it, benchmarks are always narrow in scope. Some languages may be good at some things and worse at others.

  • Oh PHP is hands down one of the slowest languages out there. It's just convenient because it's easy to host, but it's awful to use and it's really slow.

    Here, have a chart:

    In this chart, where the benchmark is calculating digits of π, Java is faster than JS, but there are cases where it's the opposite.

  • Node.js is really not a bad backend language, since it's JIT, it's actually faster than Python and Java in most cases.

    Rust will definitely have the advantage of being a compiled language though.

    Source: I write both Java and TS backend code, have done benchmarks.

    I just need my prescriptions, man...
  • Forged and stolen prescriptions are a thing, they need to perform KYC to avoid selling drugs to fraudsters.

    It's always been a problem, and your identity used to be validated using government IDs, but it can also be digital nowadays. They've always done checks, they have to by law.

    Canada’s ‘New Red Scare’ is profoundly undemocratic
  • Russia is fascist authoritarianism.

    My opinion is that no government was truly communist for long as it depends too much on people's altruism, of which there is little. Any government that claims to be communist isn't.

    Communism will always be an unstable political system, it always decays into some sort of corrupt authoritarianism due to humans' self-serving nature.

  • Looks good! The only other criticism I could give you is that the fingers on the hand holding the laptop are too long, and the laptop looks funky, like the lid's been bent.

    I would suggest making a laptop in Blender, giving it the angle you're looking for and tracing it out.

    'Get away from your inner circle': Liberal MP 'shocked' PM didn't take more time to reflect on calls to resign
  • Thank you, I was a wee teenager when he was in office, which is probably why I don't know him.

    Hopefully it isn't too long ago and the younger demographic will know who he is.

    Doesn't say anything about his ability to rule, it's just the first time I've heard the name.

  • globalnews.ca Racism is a ‘cancer eating away’ at Montreal police, officer says in resignation letter - Montreal | Globalnews.ca

    Cmdr. Patrice Vilcéus, a Montrealer of Haitian origin, says he made sure throughout his career not to simply be an observer in the face of racism and racial profiling.

    cross-posted from: https://lemmy.ca/post/29913249

    > >Earlier this month, a Quebec Superior Court judge ruled in a class-action lawsuit that racial profiling is a systemic problem in the Montreal police force, and that the city is responsible for profiling committed by its police officers. Justice Dominique Poulin ordered the City of Montreal to pay $5,000 to people arrested without justification and racially profiled. > > > >The force has also released two reports since 2019 showing that racialized people are disproportionately targeted by police during random street checks.

    Hello!

    As per the title, I think it would be really useful to have an automatic upload and attachment of any items over the 25MB limit to Proton Drive. This is something I sorely miss from Gmail which makes sending some types of emails a pain as I have to first upload it to Drive, create a public link, keep track of all my publicly shared files, and make sure the link works before placing it awkwardly in my email.

    Hello!

    As per the title, Proton Calendar for Android does not appear to support multiple signed in accounts.

    This means I can only get notifications for personal appointments or client meetings, but not both, and the web version never prompts to enable notifications on Android. I am thus liable to miss events on whichever calendar I am not currently signed into.

    This is not an acceptable level of support for a professional suite. Is there a roadmap for when this feature will be added?

    A family member was recently a victim of a hit and run on her parked car. We know there is evidence that is easy to get, but MPI is refusing to work with us.

    A police report was filed, there were eye witnesses, the suspect visited a weed store, got carded there, bought weed, and then performed the hit and run in full view of their camera system with their plate fully visible. The weed store knows who it is.

    However, MPI is showing little interest in actually investigating, and this means the victim will have to pay the $200 deductible for something that wasn't their fault and is easily solvable. They keep pressuring MPI at every call that there is evidence and they just have to go get it (as I actually walked into the weed store to ask questions and asked them to keep aside the video evidence, one of their employees was also hit), but so far they have done nothing.

    Does anyone know of a process that would push MPI to actually investigate such a thing? TIA

    I know this because I use SimpleLogin to provide each service with its own specialized email address. You can see in the picture the address starts with bixi@sl.\\\*

    It's also possible but unlikely that they sold user data.
