Sometimes I try to think through just how many layers of virtualization and indirection happen on my system even just opening a web browser and going to example.com all the way down to the CPU actually doing transistor stuff with AND and NAND and OR whatevers.

Like you probably have 3 or 4 before you even get to the OS kernel.

And then you talk about doing hyperscaler shit in containers in the cloud... Like just how much of computing is pure waste from all the virtualization and indirection?

@JessTheUnstill not to mention that since static linking is the way forward systems don't benefit from having the same shared library files cached in memory.

@ladytel @JessTheUnstill limited support for dynamic linking is my number one gripe with the rust programming language, and whatever is second isn't even close.

@jeremy_list @JessTheUnstill @ladytel It is more like zero support than limited support 😿
