From what I know of -ffast-math and can read from the docs for *_fast. I am not convinced that the *_fast intrinsics do _everything_ -ffast-math allows. They seem focused around algebraic equivalence (a/b is equivalent to a*(1/b)

not just any largest software corporation, one of my two least favourite largest software corporations on the planet.

It's not something you seem to be able to just enable globally. From what I gather this is what is being referenced: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/intrinsics/index.html Specifically the *_fast intrinsics.

Companies are constantly striving to compete. Being able to do more with the same amount of staff and therefore salary is a big part of that. The moment you let your workforce reduce their hours just because they are more productive is the

Do you think meaningfully more work will get done in those countries with those extra 8 hours?

It was most likely garlic and olive oil (and salt and pasta water).

The remote thing seems like a perfect use of 3D printing. With the tape there, there is still a risk someone will sit on the remote and get their device into a weird state. A 3D printed cover which clips over would be rigid enough to preven

Redstone isn't a mod. It was added to Minecraft in a secret Friday update in the early days around alpha iirc.

Red Power was (is... Kind of) an extension not a fork. Although you could call it more an reinterpretation. But really RP vs Redstone is more like C vs Assembly. I've seen crazy things done in both but I think I find it a bit more impr

Ah, damn. I was envisioning something limited but not this limited.

This is an amazing timeline. I still remember the day redstone was added to Minecraft. I spent the entire evening and many days afterwards on the forum brainstorming how to implement various things. I think I had one of the first if not the

GPLv3-or-later is currently almost the same as GPLv3-only at the moment given there is no GPLv4. The reason why it's not possible to include GPLv3-only code in a GPLv3-or-later codebase is that the latter is more permissive, allowing t

GPLv3-or-later is pretty commonplace in the world of free software even outside of GNU stuff.

by Arch-TK 1y ago
You can freely charge money with either GPLv3-only or GPLv3-or-later. I am not asking them to remove GPLv3-only and replace it with MIT, I am asking them to use GPLv3-or-later.

The thing that irks me about slint is the use of the more restrictive GPLv3-only which prevents it from being incorporated into a project which is licensed GPLv3-or-later. I don't get why it is done like that.

Not benchmarked on my system yet but I use OpenBSD on my home router (PCEngines APU2) and even before this stuff, OpenBSD could handle 1Gbit just fine. And that's with VLANs, LACP, a good number of PF rules, etc.

Okay, that helps for the case when you are affected. But what about the case when you are not affected and everyone else is? Doesn't that seem like good PR? Take the hit of being down once every 10 years compared to being up for the re

There is great decaff out there but the choice is nevertheless limited compared to caff and the processing (ethyl acetate, supercritical CO2, swiss water) causes flavour changes which mean that you won't get the same range of flavours

A lack of qualified experts is normally just mismanagement of resources/incentives. Not sure how it requires 50 forms and 10 different physical offices to avoid deathtraps, that's kind of the situation in Poland (my home country)

The point seems to be not that Hetzner will never have an outage, but rather that they have a track record of not having outages large enough for everyone to be affected. Seems like large cloud providers, including AWS, are down quite regul

The problem isn't necessarily the need for permission, it is excessive bureaucracy. As another commenter explained, the need for permission is there to prevent harm before it can occur, rather than punishing it after it occurs, because

It's more of a netfilter (the thing behind iptables and nftables) diagram rather than just iptables. If you know how iptables maps to that diagram you are very likely to be able to quickly understand how nftables does too.

UUIDs take up 36 bytes as strings so store them natively as 16 bytes instead if you can. This is still 2x the space of an auto increment number. This is overhead for every table, every index, and every relationship. That might be acceptable

Even if an LLM came up with the idea for using an LLM to come up with project ideas, then implementing those project ideas, then posting those projects on HN and representing the project on HN. Someone set up the first LLM. So there's

My hearing is still great, and I haven't noticed it deteriorate (I'm 29, and I've always been careful with my ears as I value having good hearing). I can hear switching noise (from power supplies) and those animal/human

Tinnitus (at least mine) sounds like a quieter version of the high pitched noise that movies like to use to emulate tinnitus due to a loud noise (explosion). It's a quieter version of the tinnitus you can personally get if you are clos

I've had a low grade (although who knows, it's not like I can hear someone else's tinnitus to compare) tinnitus for as long as I remember. For my childhood I thought it was just normal to hear this noise when there was no ext
