That’s an odd definition of non-public if the information is available to everyone. More like annoyingly public.

keep mum about energy use

Whose mum?

The proof of work is the commit content itself! Unlike some arbitrary brute force task of no value.

Now we know how much they’re making with tracking and ads per user.

Pascal is a simpler and more limited language, so it’s not entirely surprising. It also has less and smaller standard libraries to link in.

As to C# and F#, what’s wrong with the difference? The functional coding style of F# prefers immutable data over possibly mutable ones in C# and that requires more allocations and garbage collection.

That allows processes to be reused but the interpreter must still be set up cleanly each time and torn down. That includes things like open files, database connections and application configurations.

Or you could just write your backend in JS and save a lot according to this table.

The big inefficiency of PHP is that every request is handled in a new instance as opposed to one process running the server continuously.

Log files themselves don’t, but I’m just comparing it with simpler files with simpler structure with simpler algorithms with better complexity.

It’s not necessarily about the load, it’s about the algorithmic complexity. Going from lists (lines in a file, characters in a line) to trees introduces a potentially exponential increase in complexity due to the number of ways the same list of elements can be organized into a tree.

Also, you’re underestimating the amount of processing. It’s not about pure CPU computations but RAM access or even I/O. Even existing non-semantic diff implementations are unexpectedly inadequate in terms of performance. You clearly haven’t tried diffing multi-GB log files.

Just means it’s a shit charger that can’t handle multiple devices at once because that requires higher quality electronic components.

How do you expect it to be shown though?

Because text is text and all } are the same.

Diffing algorithms on trees might not be as efficient, especially if they have to find arbitrary node moves.

But where’s the start?

That wasn’t my statement… Stop intentionally misinterpreting what people say!

Privacy isn’t just about your device not emitting signals… If you don’t want your device and apps to track your location, you also don’t want to receive those GPS signals.

They told you to go to the city centre, not the refugee camp…

Only mic and camera? It should also turn off GPS, accelerometer, etc. Filming the inside of my pocket isn’t the biggest tracking concern. People are just afraid someone’s watching them masturbate all the time.

It’s the only way it can exist.

Did they jump after it to scan the barcode for a tracking update or what?
