I bought mine, because it was 3 times smaller and lighter than my P50.
The yearly 5-10% bump in performance isn't worth it.
The battery life tends to be around 10 hours, so even if your components are suddenly much more efficient you'll get a smaller battery and the same 10 hours of battery life in a slightly smaller chassis.

I would easily find use for that. I'd just snatch every torrent on PTP, BTN, OPS, GGn, EMP. Right now I'm running a 124TB array for torrents from those trackers (actually EMP is in its own redundant array) but I'd like to run RAIDZ2 instead of a striped pool with no redundancy. I'd like to be able to seed pretty much every torrent there is, as long as it's not a jeet movie or some brazilian tv show.

There's offbrand throwaway chifi and then there are actual china-based brands that try to maintain a reputation
And some of those have a reputation for shit QC and others are actually quite fine. The reason they can still undercut is that their QC is also done by chinese sweatshop workers at $0.10/h, and all of their R&D is done by chinese wunderkind corporate slaves for $10/h rather than western audio engineers racking in $300/h to tune harmans
Many of the chinese brands also have western based warehouses and accept returns and offer some sort of warranty period too. It's not 2010 anymore grandpa

>The development comes a little over a year after the tech giant [Google] disclosed that its transition to Rust led to a decline in memory safety vulnerabilities from 223 in 2019 to less than 50 in 2024.

>The company pointed out that Rust code requires fewer revisions, necessitating about 20% fewer revisions than their C++ counterparts, and has contributed to a decreased rollback rate, thereby improving overall development throughput.

>We adopted Rust for its security and are seeing a 1000x reduction in memory safety vulnerability density compared to Android's C and C++ code. But the biggest surprise was Rust's impact on software delivery," Google's Jeff Vander Stoep said. "With Rust changes having a 4x lower rollback rate and spending 25% less time in code review, the safer path is now also the faster one

>With roughly 5 million lines of Rust in the Android platform and one potential memory safety vulnerability found (and fixed pre-release), our estimated vulnerability density for Rust is 0.2 vuln per 1 million lines (MLOC).

>Our historical data for C and C++ shows a density of closer to 1,000 memory safety vulnerabilities per MLOC. Our Rust code is currently tracking at a density orders of magnitude lower: a more than 1000x reduction.

In Rust, you can just declare an extern function and call it like any other function, like in normal C/C++. You can't do that in Fil-C.

Right, here are my results.
Yeah, it's not 15x times slower, I misremembered that. It's more like 6x slower than GCC, 9x slower than Rust and just below 2x slower than JavaScript.
Considering C# is only like 1-2x slower than C, you are much better of using C# or similar languages instead of Fil-C.
>>
Note that I have no idea why Rust is so much faster than C here. I ran the tests multiple times and these are within typical results. Maybe it's because it doesn't just use qsort but some hybrid(driftsort) depending on case.
I also did not took into account NodeJS setup and teardown time. Depending on your usecase they might add significant overhead.
Either way, the direct comparison between GCC and Fil-C is what really shows the real overhead of Fil-C. And that makes it 6x slower in this case.
>>
>>107701122
Real generics are faster and Rust doesn't use null-terminated strings, which are slow.

Looks like C inlines nothing, it's doing dumb function calls through libc qsort and libc strcmp for everything, while Rust generates 2k lines of assembly to specialize the sorting algorithm for &str. That'd be my first suspect.
Null-terminated strings might also not be ideal.
https://godbolt.org/z/Yha9YT6q5
AFAIK C++ would be apples-to-apples. And maybe it'd help Fil-C elide more checks, who knows.
Note that you could also speed up the Rust code: `lines.sort_unstable()` might be faster than `lines.sort()`, and wrapping a `BufWriter` around `stdout().lock()` would likely be much faster since it would avoid flushing after every line. (C automatically switches to block-buffering if stdout isn't a TTY, Rust's stdout is line-buffered always.)

I know I'm a dumbass and this is probably a worthless question, but I do wonder how systematic they really are. it does sound like they simply try something like, say, 3 letters long, going from "aaa" to "aaz" then "aba" and repeat, until all "zzy" or all symbols, then moving on to 4 characters long, then 5, then 6, in that pattern.
but do they really work that way? is it that systematic?

reason I'm asking is because security tips always just say "change your passwords often so that you don't get brute-force attacked", but my dumbass is sitting here wondering whether or not only changing my (example) password from "melongarden2025" to be "melongarden2026" once a year would do little to nothing because it's right next in the systematical order.
or whether or not having a password change from "aaaaaaa" to "bbbbbbb" would be less safe than, say, "zzzzzzz" due to their distance between each other in the alphabet order and how long it will take for the bot to go from one guess to the other.

TL;DR in what order do these things try guesses, and how should I change my passwords to work around it? should all my passwords start with Z from now on? should all password changes be wildly different from what it previously was?
