And here's why the AV detects it. They don't have many samples written in #Nim, and most that they have are malware / trojans. But attackers are using more than just #Nim-lang. They're also using #GoLang, #DLang, and #Rust. This suggests that antivirus vendors need to get smarter.
Anyone know about #golang's #power consumption when idle? Tracking an issue where #Yggdrasil uses 1% CPU even when idle, representing 10% of total #battery consumption on the box during that time. I was told "that is the typical power profile of a #go program with a decent number of go routines". Is that correct? strace shows a lot of stuff in futexes and apparent busy-sleeps. How to address? Does GOMAXPROCS=1 help? The program is otherwise idle during these times.
We're looking for #Go developers, but welcome anyone with similar web development skills to apply! There's plenty to be done around #WriteFreely, and lots of opportunity to learn Go, if you're interested.
We've reached a point where we'd like to start #hiring developers to work on the #WriteFreely roadmap 💻 :writefreely2:
This would be remote, contract-based work for now, with a chance to go full-time later in the year (assuming all continues going well). You'd be creating free / open source software.
I'll have more details soon, but especially if you're a #Go / #Golang developer and want to work on a growing #fediverse project, I'd love to hear from you!
