If you enjoy this kind of paper, then I highly recommend this book: https://www.routledge.com/Games-Puzzles-and-Computation/Hear... It has a huge number of examples of how to build similar gadgets using lots of differe

See also: https://arxiv.org/pdf/1203.3602.pdf You can also encode any monotone boolean function by hanging a picture on the wall on N nails (one nail per variable). e.g. a "normal" hanging of a picture on two

The poster you are replying to didn't suggest hardcoding intcmp into qsort - just making it so the implmentation of qsort is available to the compiler when the comparison function is known (i.e. just like with C++). When this is done,

Sorry about that. I am (probably overly) cautious of tax implications so it is currently US and AU only. Maybe I should reread the legal stuff and try to get some more places open.

by TheNewAndy 6y ago
Thank you so much. Really appreciated.

Sorry about that. I am hoping to open it up to more places, just being small I need to be a little bit aware of the tax implications. Having my incompetence lead to missing sales is preferred to having it lead to tax evasion.

I built this for a bit more than just "making money" (wanted some experience), and it is still early days. But I made an iOS game: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/two-birds-one-stone/id15396463... So

Yes. I have recently released my first game in the app store. It is a simple game, and so this is probably the 3rd rewrite of it. The second rewrite was when I finally had an apple device, so I thought "I will do everything the apple w

I think there is a level of familiarity bias that happens with debugging tools. I could probably get away with making gdb my login shell I live in it so much, and when I find myself using Visual Studio's debugger, I find it incredibly

I'm not sure that Visual Studio is particularly good at debugging zig either...

That is an interesting take, and it seems common in PL research (even if unspoken). I love the formalism and "hard" maths of PL design - but if the purpose of a PL is to bridge the chasm between how computers work (i.e. machine co

I think the original poster has seen an example of this, and they think apple could go further. I certainly was surprised to see the sentence: "Privacy practices may vary, for example, based on the features you use or your age." I

Hi all, this is my first iOS game. I have had the idea in my head for over 5 years (you can even play a version of this from back then online here http://ideationapps.com/2birds/2birds.html - but the web based version

I was trying to install my own app on my own M1 mac, and found that promo codes didn't work. This is just a post about that, and a few other assorted things I was curious about which I hadn't seen anywhere.

In writing performance critical cross platform embedded code, I have found that exact width integer types are less useful than the "minimum width" style types you get from plain C (e.g. you can't write cross platform code wit

I was reminded of this when reading the comments in the "malloc geiger counter" story. Page 9 has a great photo of a computer with a light pointed at the memory to help have more bit flip errors.

Try "fox" in style 2 with maximum legibility. It goes loop-the-loop several times.

I feel like this is circling around total functional programming. I found this to be an accessible paper on this: http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.106... The language it uses enforces that all r

I'm a bit confused by this (I've only read the summary that is linked to). As I understand it, the "raw" neural bloom filter is basically a function which you can query "with what certainty can you say that item X i

Very fun, but I've never seen proofs in this format. I would expect to see the "prerequisites" on the top of the line and the "thing that follows" below. e.g. https://screenshots.firefox.com/uhqTk89
