Be that as it may, I wasn't talking about C++. Also, the integer operation optimizations require no such flags on either side, and yet the resulting machine code was still very poor for Rust.

You can just pass a reference/mut ref to the first element of the slice. This is actually how the generated kernels in my Rav1e PR do it, just for the aliasing reason you mentioned.

These blocks are non-continuous. It operates over a part of a row, where the start of the next row is the start of the current row + some stride. I mean maybe? But I probably wouldn't anyway for this case as a slice reference is actual

Not really in this case; Rav1e runs over blocks of image planes (like say a 16x16 block of a specific 720p color channel), so there is no continuous slice to iterate over.

True. I should have explained that better. If you're accessing an array, you'll have to do the pointer offset-ing yourself (otherwise you're using a slice and all the checking that entails). Thus, you can't use a referen

I have some experience with this, ie ensuring LLVM optimizes and codegens the "best"! I have been working to generate target independent "kernels" for the Rav1e AV1 encoder and have had to do a lot of unidiomatic thing

Those two sides aren't mutually exclusive. Demand for content creates both.

Privacy implications aside, we're actually not talking about a human being. We're talking about a(n) (abnormal) cluster of non-critical cells in a human. You and I shed millions of these (all-be-it normal) cells everyday, in the

My Fitbit also has a heart monitor. It never confuses "just lying there" with actual sleep, for me at least. Note that your heart rate slows during sleep, which is useful for detecting sleep cycles etc. Which is why I mentioned th

A lot of people play with 144hz (what I play on) and some even higher (240hz). Which is just under 7ms and just over 4ms, respectively.

Not for some games, where low settings are used on purpose. The CPU is the bottleneck in those cases. cough Overwatch cough .

Play, seriously, a competitive shooter/fps and you'll also start noticing the difference. 144hz is buttery smooth compared to 60hz.

Ehhhh, I'd leave it as is. Unless you have business licenses in EU countries, EU laws have no legal authority over you. If you do have such licenses, then you're probably big enough to foot the bill and possibly also can't af

It's not implementable by local devices: your LAN is much faster than your WAN link, in most cases. Your router/modem does the packet dropping. But only your router/modem knows how much unused throughput is available at any m

One can't control those that must deploy IPv6 first. That's the problem NAT solves. Developing NAT was likely not easy; consider how many implementations f it up anyway.

As a current user of ECC RAM w/ a Ryzen 7 1800, I can tell you it works. We need faster ECC RAM though: the external RAM speed affects the internal AMD Infinity Fabric, which provides inter core comms.

Depends. Erlang's scheduler is clever: if the receiver is asleep waiting on its inbox, sending to it will switch the running process to the receiver and back, all without hitting the scheduler logic. This is a great benefit for "t

Banning something is a good way to prevent such studies from ever happening. Also, they aren't banned. The FDA just made it so small businesses wouldn't be able to make the ecig products (basically). Big tabacco, however, is able

I agree. Most of the HTML I write is to create structure for CSS to use. For example, a `div` is a container, but we put it on the content side. What would have been better would be a flat map identifier -> binary (or string or whatever,

Note to anyone not already familiar: in Elixir, character strings are all binaries from the start. Just to avoid the notion that Elixir follows the mistake of strings-are-linked-lists from Erlang.

What if (full) use of the car is required? Sometimes things break (or rather, a threshold is crossed), but it won't become known to the car and thus the owner until the car is needed. A wife entering labor, for example.

Not sure why you were down voted without refute. Gerrymandering is a known and ignored problem in a lot of states, including my home state of Kansas (where Lawrence is split down the middle).
