Why would we need a function keyword?

It's sort of click bait, but also true, right? This is just insertion sort using non-fixed indexing?

People writing generic libraries need this. As an example, I've seen it used a lot in anything related to logging and monitoring, since these generally need the ability to take arbitrary data types and work with them in different ways.

Arguably is doing a lot of work here, peoples eyes tend to start glazing over when I tell them it's a parameter pack fold :) I'd much rather have a loop that doesn't confuse people not familiar with the syntax.

by foota 2y ago
There's a way to "iterate" over parameter packs called fold expressions, but they're painful and look very weird.

This is nice, but I'm still waiting for a constexpr for loop to use it with.

I think they're pointing it out because stating they're working towards a PhD in something when they've just graduated and don't seem to be (as far as we can tell) enrolled in a PhD program is misleading. Note that the p

It's a bit hard for me to tell the intention here. Is the idea that finite fields can take better advantage of CPU architecture than something like SIMD for parallel computation? Or is this just for experimentation? Edit: this tickles

Maybe one of these? https://www.gamedev.net/forums/topic/297894-good-3d-browser-... Your description also made me think of babylon js, but that was later. Also maybe java applets?

I don't want to make too many assumptions here because it's a bit of a minefield, but... perhaps there's an entirely selfish and rational explanation for DEI hiring programs in a tight labor market? If you feel like you&#x27

I think that's a different thing... I believe you're talking about flexible paxos ( https://arxiv.org/abs/1608.06696 ). Flexible paxos doesn't change the underlying guarantees at all, whereas this does.

Ok, I'm a bit surprised to see no comments here, I guess everyone is waiting to read the paper till after the work day? :) I thought it was interesting, iiuc the proposal is that you can design a protocol like Paxos that allows you to

I'm not an expert in licenses, but my understanding is that if someone makes a contribution under one license, then any program including that code needs to obey the terms of that license. The CLA allows them to choose any license (wel

I think the concern is that the company would relicense future versions, as allowed by the CLA, under pressure from VCs.

There's two possible interpretations here. One is that Dell wanted to use stay at home as a filter for promoting people that believe in it, the other is that Dell was using promotion as a stick (as in carrot and stick) to get people to

I suspect this is bad for dell because employees called their bluff, Dell would probably be negatively affected by only promoting from half of their talent pool. It's unclear how this is bad for workers, since they didn't "de

I didn't comment on them because one, there's a lot there, and two, they said they didn't want to have a debate. I guess in hindsight they weren't even necessarily stating their positions on these things (although I thin

I strongly disagree with most of what you've said, but I think more meta, this comment is not constructive (in so much as politics/ideology is supposed to be avoided anyway), in particular I don't think posting a rant and tel
