For folks interested in using mergeable libraries, the following documentation should help to get you started: https://t.co/EAwyrE4fcy Join the labs to provide feedback and ask questions!
developer.apple.com
Use mergeable dynamic libraries to get app launch times similar to static linking in release builds, without losing dynamically linked build times in debug builds.

My team also worked on a new library format: mergeable libraries. Mergeable libraries combine the benefits of static and dynamic libraries, providing the best performance without sacrificing development velocity. (1/n)
Today at WWDC we introduced a new static linker. It is a ground-up rewrite that’s up to 5x faster than ld64. The new linker is written with multicore in mind, and it’s the first production ready parallel linker officially supported for iOS development. (1/n)

Hope everyone enjoyed the SOTU presentation! We have an brand new linker this year, and some really cool new features like mergeable libraries. There is a session on Wednesday, and team members will be in labs throughout the week. https://t.co/S8adswHgXN

Can't repeat it enough, but fork() really needs to be deprecated yesterday. On a multithreaded program, its semantics make even less sense than usual. It just needs to go.

Congratulations to the loudmouth that goaded him into that. She’s probably awesome.
Remember when Elon Musk starting doing polls to decide major decisions on this app giving the illusion that he was giving power to the people? Then he polled on whether he should let someone else run the company and lost. And then he just stopped running polls

Ten years ago, a particular individual did something that so annoyed me I committed myself to spend the next decade making Arm servers viable. Also, never underestimate the power of being annoyed as a motivator 👍

Folks, y'all basically have just 1 week left to migrate off here, because API access, which all the migration tools depend on to recreate your social graph (follows), is about to get shut off or at least paywalled.

A compiler. You just described a compiler.
Can someone make an LLM that takes in Python and spits out optimized [X86, ARM, RISCV, *] assembler code? That would be so cool. it could even go from [Python, C++, Java, *] to native assembler. Instruct fine-tune it to make PIC or arch-specific optimizations

I have loved Twitter for 15 years or so but that dingaling @elonmusk has an amazing ability to ruin a good thing. I'm probably going to keep cross-posting here but I'm shifting my efforts to my own blogs and to @danielpunkass@mastodon.social.

@elonmusk Maybe they think they shouldn’t pay to have their brand associated with antisemitism and white supremacy.

This 💯. They are sociopaths who don’t care about the impact of their actions on other people, and they then use their ASD as socially acceptable excuse for their anti-social behavior. It is disgusting and offensive.
I swear, if I see one more time “give Elon or SBF a break they’re on the spectrum” I will scream. Autistic people do tend to care about “justice” more. But not because they’re good. Because of the difficulty to reason about how NT people react. As a result, following rules …
