Openstreetmap shows it as not yet finished, and i it does not yet exist, that seems to be correct.

The only problem with that is that in most jurisdictions the only way to release something into the public domain is to have died seventy years ago.

Well, according to a quick perusal of the LLVM documentation, the only llvm calling convention that allows TCO on all platforms seems to be fastcc, whose main purpose is to have calls that are a fast as possible, at the cost of not being co

Scala compiles direct tail recursion the a jump to the start of the function (jumps within a method are possible on the JVM) without any trampoline. So @tailrec tells the compiler to compile this call to an unconditional jump.
575.
by fhars 14y ago
No, scala's @tailrec annotation only guarantees that calls that can trivially be compiled to loops in fact are. You can't do better on a standard JVM without jumping through hoops (or, rather, trampolines).

Or scala, which is an acceptable ML if you ignore the OO parts :-).
577.
by fhars 14y ago
scala doesn't optimize general tail calls, either (only direct tail recursion of final methods). If you want to optimize tail calls on the JVM, you must use trampolining, which adds some overhead to every call. So most languages choose fast

Now you are caching everything, i.e. every filter returns just the unfiltered complete list.

It is a job listing by a YC company, one of the perks of being part of the game.

You should have been honest in your presentation and openly stated that not a single line of GPU code runs on the Pi.
584.
by fhars 14y ago
This doesn't run anything important on the Pi. The only thing running there is a client that dispatches calculation jobs to some server with nvidia GPUs somewhere is the network. It is a stupid and deceptive publicity stunt.

Getting the stamp on the 20 euro electronics purchase is in the customer's best interest as it is a proof that he purchased the item there and so can get warranty service from the seller (I don't know if "warranty" is the correct term here,

Yes, but I still think that the tidal deformation of the earth under the gravitational influence of the steel nut will vastly dominate general relativistic effects like gravitational waves. You usually use neutron stars orbiting black holes

Sounds about right. I get up to 11 fps on Ubuntu 64bit on an AMD E-350/Radeon HD 6310 system fullscreen on 1366x768 with the catalyst drivers and hidden GUI and a quick search for benchmarks seems to indicate that it is about twice as fast

Gravity doesn't do anything on its own, in the absence of other forces, the orbit of a steel nut around the earth would be stable (that's also why we haven't yet crashed into the sun even after being in its gravitational field for billions

Yes, of course. That is the only mechanism that can remove debris from orbit (apart from flying up there and shooting lasers at it and other untested fantastic ideas). And debris in higher orbits survives longer exactly because the earth'

It depends on the height. At the height of the ISS, is it about a year or less, at the height of the Chinese test is seems to be a few decades or maybe one or two centuries and at 1000km the lifetime of space debris starts to be measured in

Yeah, the whole IT concepts naming story really lacks narrative closure ( http://oxfordindex.oup.com/view/10.1093/oi/authority.2011080... ).

But Tesla explicitly says that even while they recommend it, you don't have to plug in over night: "The Model S battery will not lose a significant amount of charge when parked for long periods of time. For example, Model S owners can park

Then why does my German national id card have the text "Dr. Hars" (short form, without the "rer. nat.") in the field with the label "Name/Surname/Nom"?
598.
by fhars 14y ago
Strictly speaking, in Germany you don't use the PhD (Dr.) with your name, you just use your full name. Getting a "Dr." is a name change, while getting a diploma or masters degree is not.

If you actually had read the linked "shallow" article, you would have noticed that the author cited exactly the kind of study you want to see. In the very first paragraph.

Actually, organizing markets in a way that they favour one gender over another is an instance of sexist bias.
