Indeed, it seems contradictory to be talking about converting multiple branches within a basic block. Or even a single branch, for that matter. Perhaps they're talking about what ends up in a single basic block after the conversion

There is a reason: the majority of the file size comes from statically linked LLVM libraries. You can instead configure LLVM’s build system to build a single dynamic library and have the tools link to it, and this eliminates all of the dupl

Accelerate is a pure C API. Metal is an Objective-C API. It is possible to call arbitrary Objective-C APIs from pure C using the Objective-C runtime functions, and Apple themselves recently released a Metal API wrapper written in C++ that

I’m having a hard time thinking of what kind of network topology would result in a routing loop. Can you elaborate? It seems like the first router would have to be forwarding only a subset of a /32 to the second router; if the second

It depends on the exact wording of your employment contract. If it only covers work you did with company property, you're lucky. As far as the law goes, in California (per Labor Code section 2870), employment agreements are allowed to

LLVM has at least two optimizations that can elide moves in different circumstances, MemCpyOpt and SROA. But it depends on the situation. If you call a function that moves its argument to its return value, that move definitely won't

And what of spending money on stuff just because you enjoy collecting? From my limited knowledge, it seems like most buyers are motivated by that to at least some extent.

If you actually see two conflicting chains (either proof-of-work or proof-of-stake) with large numbers of people vouching for both, then the correct chain is not necessarily "whichever one is longer". Well, it could be, for you;

The history still needs to be signed by former stakers to be valid. The "nothing at stake" problem is that a staker might break the rules by signing two mutually incompatible histories. During the staking period, they are strong

Even with relaxed memory ordering, you’re still bouncing the cache line around between every CPU that tries to access bumpPtr. I would expect that to be significantly slower than using per-thread heaps (especially if you have a large numbe

Huh, I'm surprised. I had just assumed without looking that this library provided wrapper classes where the copy constructor calls retain and the destructor calls release. Apparently not.

From a quick grep, it looks like this wrapper does not automatically call autorelease, so autorelease happens only when a method implementation autoreleases its own return value (or if you call autorelease yourself). Objective-C has a sta

Interesting; I was wondering if they had added some magic feature to Clang to enable Objective-C in pure C++ mode, but no, it really is C++. It just directly calls the Objective-C runtime functions like sel_registerName, objc_lookUpClass,
