“‘DTMF’ ups the ante: It’s entirely in Spanish. The last time a mostly Spanish-language song was on top of the Hot 100 was 2017, when ‘Despacito’—the Luis Fonsi–Daddy Yankee jam that was remixed with a new vocal from English speaker Justin Bieber—was No. 1 for a then-record 16 weeks. The last time an all-Spanish song was No. 1 was three decades before that, in 1987, when Los Lobos’ remake of the Ritchie Valens ’50s classic ‘La Bamba’ was on top for three weeks.”

How to get out of jury duty.

Judge forced to slash SF jury pool over hate for Elon Musk: One candidate said, "In a criminal trial, I would feel morally obligated to convict, however, in a civil trial I could set those views aside," adding, "I believe it would be to the benefit of the human race for Mr. Musk to be sent to prison." ...

This was objectively a police execution.

Cops let an attack dog maul this man, while claiming he was "resisting". So naturally one of the cops calmly pulled out his gun and shot him in the back of the head and the back.

Killing Da'quain Tre Johnson on 2/19.

Just like Alex Pretti, Johnson had been disarmed by police. When he posed no threat at all a cop just straight up murdered Da'quain.

American tax payers will now pay for a hospital ship which will be sent to Greenland, Trump claims on Truth Social.

Let me rephrase that: The US, which does not offer free healthcare to its own people, wants it's own people to offer free healthcare… to Greenland… which already has free healthcare.

Maybe it is time for another brain scan for the US president.

The sadism described in this article—the shackling of a retired tourist couple in their 60s; the detention of the old woman for the crime of packing her husband’s suitcase (his visa had expired); the guards who swear at her and make her sleep on the floor—is, as many have observed, the point. But it won’t deter all others from visiting the US, because of the canny way it channels libidinal energy: 1/2

Mozilla wants your input. Here's mine:

Mozilla should be doing two things and two things only:

1: Building THE reference implementation web browser, and
2: Being a jugular-snapping attack dog on standards committees.
3: There is no 3.

Mozilla should have NOTHING to do with AI. Nobody wants it. Stop forcing AI into every corner of every project because your VC-brained management have completely lost the plot.

Who’s ready for some propaganda? Their approach would be corny if it wasn’t scary.

In the mean time, continue getting acquainted with Black history in this nation as a view of people who have continued to persevere in spite of fascism.

@bbelderbos Nice! 🤓

Did you know that the `sum` method is actually a trait method of the `Sum` trait?

https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/iter/trait.Sum.html#tymethod.sum

The `Sum` trait is also implemented for e.g. `Option`, where `T` is itself implementing `Sum`:

https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/option/enum.Option.html#impl-Sum%3COption%3CU%3E%3E-for-Option%3CT%3E

Example:
```rust
let sum_opt: Option<_> = [Some(1), Some(2), Some(3)].into_iter().sum();
assert_eq!(sum_opt, Some(6))

```

V8 will go faster with naive Float32Array accessors than classes w/ all the vtable dispatch, but once you manually unroll your loops, classes (with hot IC data) just scream.

Bun/JSC seem to have faster paths for raw TypedArray access; I can get them (with unrolling) to nearly 2x faster than classes w/ unrolling across larger collections and 1.5x faster than the fastest Node/v8 approach. Fascinating.

slightlyoff@toot.cafe ("Alex Russell") wrote:

It's truly impressive how fast the V8 IC implementation can be in a hot loop; it's almost impossible to beat a monomorphic object + member method + manual loop unrolling for things that would be fastest in C/C++ as "fatty structs".
