  • You both need a time off, stop or make interactions really “rational and controlled”. It takes time to shift to different dynamic between you two.

    Once you both (or at least one of you) get new partners, things will be more promising for a genuine friendship.

    Otherwise, lingering feelings or “emotionally weak” days seriously risk ruining the relationship and make things permanently awkward.

    source: my own experience. I am best friends with my ex. And lived the process myself.



















  • Yeah the big question is what’s gonna happen to the project after Linus…

    you got it pretty much right. An ABI, depending on the context, could include just the app/OS interface or also the across-apps, across-apps-modules interface too. Things like calling convention, register usage, stack usage, etc.

    when you distribute compiled libraries, you want clients to know how to invoke your functions and know how to retrieve your returned values. That’s part of the ABI too.

    The ABI also defines the type translation from the language (say, C) to asm undertood by a processor (say riscv64g) so, you map types. Following that example, you may instruct the assembler and linker to use abi “lp64” that maps longs and pointers to 64 bits, and integers (int) to 32 bits. This abi also emulates floating point operations (n the other hand, lp64d would make use of dedicated hardware for “double precision” floats)
