AMD hardware is amazing. AMD software needs catching up to do. It's pretty amazing how Nvidia's strategy of making compute tools available on most consumer grade cards is paying off latent dividends -- consumers learn on their own

AMD could use testers(cough clients i mean) like you. Jokes aside, please report bugs to rocm github..

>> Notwithstanding these facts, the government went all in on renewables and cutting down on emissions -- despite it not making any sense -- because it's a popular measure across all age groups. > Another interesting statement

Would you say x86 is held back by lack of scalable vector processing, limited to AVX512? ARM must be doing something better power efficiency and parallel processing, that x86 was too complacent in.

More interesting that they found a way to work with poor quality iron

Parallel studio is more than just latest ISA support though. VTunes tells you all about performance at the processor level, so you get much more accurate perf profiles from the hardware itself.

Programming is unique in that you don't have to be physically located in same place as others to do work. It's no brainer why GitLab is targeting this "hidden" talent pool.

Value tends to scale with scarcity, economics 101. Gitlab doesn't have to pay people higher salaries for living in HCOL. All it should care about is talent level, which should favor hiring talented people not in HCOL.

Honest question: Should a company like google take the lesser evil route and still provide neutered service simply because target audience is huge? Google could still bring a lot of good to the people. Sure it doesn't exactly subscribe

yes, but usually complex = variable length encoding. size is also a factor.

I think easiest way is just to write a backend that emits .NET IR since infra is already there.

> Swapping through unions is UB Writing to union member and reading back as another member should be okay. But it does incur copy.

by flamedoge 8y ago
union and memcpy are known ways to do type-punning. Caveat to these is that they require at least one memory copy operation. Last I heard, clang and llvm's TBAA is still buggy.

So if it's difficult we shouldn't try?
