Another reason is if there’s other kinds of data that gets uploaded to Tesla, and the code for uploading crash data reuses that code. For the first kind of data, deleting the data from the car the moment there’s confirmation that it now is

I think it would be easy, but still not worth the transistors. Think of it: what programs contain lots of NOPs? Who, desiring to write a fast program, sprinkles their code with NOPs? It’s not worth optimizing for situations that do not occu

The statistic to look at is not how many there are, but how many get sold nowadays. Also, how does “plenty” compare to the millions (50 million or so, it seems from a quick search) x64s that Intel sells per year? Do they even sell 1% of tha

Haven’t seen the movie, but if the goal is to read a single 8" disk once, it wouldn’t surprise me that, with modern tech, were easier than creating a disk. A McGyver construction would leave out the spindle motor and the stepper moto

Indeed. IMO, the municipality should have raised water prices for everyone to make supply match demand. And that doesn’t mean water bought ‘on demand’ would have to be equally costly as what people who ‘subscribed’ to water pay.

But the moment you use a third party library, you cannot use it “responsibly” because that library, too, might use it “responsibly”, and then, you can easily get spooky interaction at a distance, with bugs that are hard or even impossible t

It can’t be a trap in regular ARM assembly, either, can it? There, all instructions are 32 bits and D4D4 is only 16 bits.

Unlikely, but not unheard of. Fermat's theorem on sums of two squares is from 1640. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fermat%27s_theorem_on_sums_of_... says: “Fermat usually did not write down proofs of his claims, a

That’s what ‘everybody’ thinks. I think that’s from reading so much about them being hard to find. They aren’t hard to find, though, it’s (as far as we know) hard to recognize integers as being primes. There are more prime numbers than ther

Bresenham’s paper is online at https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/280811.280913 . It has 6 pages. Is that succinct enough? Also, as dfranks says, it was developed for plotters, so he didn’t think of pixels.
