I'd even argue that flooring division is also more useful than round to zero and is also what binary shifting does. At least more useful for my use-cases (things like dealing with coordinates in game worlds, ...), but unlike for modulo

Is it really faster? If you want to modulo with powers of 2, you can use bit-and with a power of two minus 1, that has the good behavior and is definitely faster than what the one outputting negative values does. Or do you mean if based on

The one that returns a negative value for negative first argument has never done anything useful for me, and always made things that are actually useful harder to do. The only useful behavior is that crossing 0 does not change the pattern.

But even if you have the set of all reals not describable with a finite amount of symbols, I can still imagine what happens e.g. if you multiply all its values by 2, or what the cartesian product of this set with another is like. At least,

This looks much better than expected for 4-color CGA, but now I'd really love to see a 16-color EGA version!

Just a current trend. You can watch older shows, wait a few years for the next trend, or watch shows made in different countries (not for netflix of course), if you like something else.

It really looks like a capital I in the title to me (with the top serif extending both left and right). It also has ASCII code 73. Screenshot: https://imgur.com/8HuOsqc (same in the article too)

There was a similar game in the late 90s I liked a lot from the same makers, TOCA 2 touring cars. Played it split screen on pc with one player using force feedback steering wheel and the other using force feedback sidewinder joystick. Great

Does there exist a logic gate diagram of the 8086, or similar cpu's (e.g. 6502)? I mean a way to see the discrete digital logic, as opposed to transistors, of the ALU and also any other random logic and control.

The one thing I wish is they had a keyword for base-ten related sequences (rather than only "base" for any base), because base ten related sequences simply are almost always going to be way more recreational maths related than bas

The issue is not developers, but disallowing the patterns is[a-z].*, to[a-z].*, str[a-z].* and others. Why would anyone do this to a programming language? It's a stupid decision to reserve those and it ruins the usability of the langua

I'm not a native English speaker, but pretty good at it, but the word "induce" here gets me. Does "induce impaired cognitive function" mean something good, or something bad, for cognitive function?
