From the future!

Nice! I think he had a post marked for the future (the 32nd of September ), but his tool somehow published that;

  https://github.com/matklad/matklad.github.io/blob/master/content/posts/2024-09-32--what-is-io-uring.dj

I think the “32-” should have been “23”. Transposed digits and an extra hyphen-minus.

Published already on 32nd september, wonderful.

I wonder if matklad has their scheduled blogs after penning them down?

This is very cool! I wish the IL acronym was explained in the text, though.

Interesting!

Is this satire

It was.

Would have been funnier if you said Jira :-)

You're clearly a Guess :)

I consider myself a staunch centrist on the "ask" vs. "guess" scale. :-)

I ask all the time! And I'm totally comfortable with "no." But I try to consider the other person first because I think making unreasonable requests repeatedly, which is the subtext of their description of an "asker," blows social capital and just bugs people.

Making unreasonable requests repeatedly is a form of harassment not "Ask culture."

It's not like people in ask cultures just go around asking random strangers to hand over all their money...

But that's ask culture in the end. Guess people can only guess, whereas ask can always guess, but then fallback to asking.

Guess also assumes a very similar shared context and understanding. This leads to xenophobia, because "those foreigners" seem so rude simply because they "guess" with a different contexts. Again, asking is superior.

I think that's a given that needn't be mentioned in the article. The author isn't stupid, and clearly wouldn't advocate for making outlandish or completely unreasonable requests even for the "askers" mindset.

And a lot of "Ask" are simply "Grab"

No I'm a purple personality with IRWNVDEIS+ tendencies.

Thank you!

"Just" :D

If it's just a case of "docker compose up" then it's just.

Guessing from the number (168), probably second year? So not too basic if that's what you're implying

The Stanford CS curriculum only distinguishes on the first digit: 1XX for undergrads and 2XX and above for graduate students. (Undergrads often take one or more graduate courses as they progress.)

Most taking this course are advanced 2nd year or 3rd or 4th year students who have taken the introduction to algorithms course. Most/many CS majors never take this class at all.

Ok, for a second-year course that's pretty impressive. I don't know why, I was expecting a postgrad-level course

Love the subtle stonks background in the first image.

Great post!
