The code isn't very well written either. For example, the various array printing functions (which are at the top of the file, first thing I saw) call putchar/printf in a loop instead of allocating the entire string and printing it

I worked at Cruise (I left about 2.5 years ago) and I have the opposite impression about Kyle. Kyle was a very charismatic leader who was really in the trenches. Unlike a lot of CEOs he was really visible in the office, he would drop in on

They're not actually writing these template instantiations, you would write regular strings in your code. The whole point is that this is for a logging library that does compile-time trickery to replace strings with integer labels. The

If you make the lambda take the source location as a default parameter initialized to `std::source_location::current()` (which is the typical usage) then the default argument is created in the scope of the caller, so it would expand to the

Behind in what dimension? The most expensive Nvidia chips are much faster than Google TPUs, but the Google TPUs are competitive in terms of end to end training costs (roughly you can think of this as FLOPs per dollar).

I just finished reading Empire of the Sum which is a book telling the history of calculators, and has an entire chapter on Olivetti and the Programma 101. Highly recommend if you're interested in calculators. https://www.goo

For the most part, Rust projects at Google tend to be things that are relatively self-isolated (like the Binder rewrite). Google has a huge monorepo with tens of millions of lines of C++ code, much of which is highly interlinked and interde

If you look at Texas on Google maps or earth.google.com you'll see the west half is very dry and has little vegetation, but the east half is actually quite wet and verdant.

Except it's legal to map the zero page, so this isn't actually a good way to test if the system has a functional MMU.

The issue though would be the source code. Most projects at Google are developed in the monorepo and this makes it very difficult to split things out (to sell, or in some cases to open source) because the code likely links to all kinds of i

Absolutely. We're still in early days, but the products that Intel has announced in this space are impressive, and if they execute well they should be able to capture a significant amount of market share. That isn't to say that th

10% faster P cores, E cores are the same speed. Some updates to the neural core thing that no one cares about. How is that insane?

This is useful for numa systems (e.g. to track how much time you spend on each numa socket), note that the memcg controller already has numa support. For example, depending on what mempolicy you have configured you may want to know how much

X11 is obviously insanely flexible, no one will argue that. It is also riddled with complexity, security problems, and performance problems. Programs like xlock are notorious for numerous security problems over the years, for precisely this

There is a button in the app and also on touchscreens (accessible from both front and rear seats) that you can use to ask the car to pullover as soon as possible. You can exit the vehicle this way if you think it's unsafe.

You literally don't need to use those features to use systemd. There's no requirement on journald or systemd-resolved if you just want to use systemd as an init. Distros are typically configured to use these features because they

The blog post is also kind of unhinged because in the incredibly rare cases where you would want to write code like this you can literally just use the asm keyword. I think it's also worth considering WHY compilers (and the C standard)
