Pull Interactions from POSSEd Content

I just introduced a new feature on the website! 🎉 As usual, whenever content is POSSEd (Publish (on your) Own Site, Syndicate Elsewhere), you will find links to the syndicated content at the bottom of the page.

Table of Contents Introduction Recently I was looking at an issue on mimalloc, a "state-of-the-art" memory allocator developed by Microsoft. The issue was quite simple, developers wanted a way to preallocate a piece of memory and use it as mimalloc's heap. Seeing that mimalloc does not offer this feature, I thought: "how hard can it be to write a memory allocator to manage a preallocated region?". The answer to this question is: "given enough time, even a monkey with a typewriter can write

All is good, except you’re lacking your lifeblood: internet. You could pay $170 for seven days of throttled internet on a single device, and perhaps split it via a travel router or hotspot, but that still seems less than ideal. I’ve been trave
