It's always annoyed me that Events would tell me the temperature in °F.

This years Defcon CTF has some RF hacking. An FPGA running an MSP430 was one of the flags. That's some cool low level stuff.

Rust also allows polymorphic return types. trait Bounded { fn min_bound() -> Self; fn max_bound() -> Self; } Which can be used like so. Using type inference. fn add_min_to_set<T:Bounded, S:Mutable

minBound and maxBound are typeclass functions. Typeclass's are a similar to java interfaces. So the Bounded typeclass is defined as class Bounded a where minBound :: a maxBound :: a If you have a function and y

I'm not sure that delay lines will retain data when the chucks that hold them are unloaded by the server.

Mill architecture support it, by having multiple add instructions. add is wraparound add. addx returns a NaR^[1]. addw returns a double width value. As Mill stores integer size of registers these instructions apply to all integer sizes and

I did that to a ISP provided router. The company wouldn't enable port forwarding for games. So I did it myself. Why do those routers have open telnet interfaces.

In go you use '.' for namespace accesses. Eg: os.NewFile. But in C '.' means access struct member. So the · is used instead so to do f = os.NewFile(3, "/dev/zero") # Go you would use f

Victoria has done it before. The a series of the TV show Underbelly was banned temporally. The show depicted a true story of a crime that was still going through the court system. Australian Juries are not supposed to know anything about a

Students at UNSW doing Advanced Operating systems use a SabreLite board running seL4. They're pretty similar so you should be able to get it working.

I live in Australia. My dad won't get air-conditioner because he knows it cost at least $1,200 to add another A/C to the grid.

Looks like K12 SOCs will have x86 and ARM cores. I'm guessing HSA will be involved.

In some programs I like to have something like this to catch potential bugs: int abs_s(int x) { assert(x != INT_MIN); return (x >= 0) ? x : -x; }

The issue is for some programmers propensity to use ++ and -- whenever they can. So you end up with max(a++, b--) Which expands to ((a++)>(b--)?(a++):(b--)) creating unexpected results. The solution is, don't use

Australia is very different from that. They banned advertising to consumers in most ways. They still can put ads in magazines for retailers (because they aren't the end user). Now we also have "plain packaging laws" which mea

Napoleon wasn't short by most measures. The myth comes from two issues: Napoleon used tall soldiers in his personal guard, and British people said it to make fun of him.

Reminded me of Subsurface maintainer's talk on Qt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ON0A1dsQOV0 He found it was very good for cross platform work.

As dbaupp said it's only an optimisation. So you should be able to use mainline LLVM now. Therefore using PS4 with Rust wouldn't be too complicated.

Here I was thinking: Wouldn't it be nice if seL4 were Open source.

by hornetblack 12y ago
Rust and the PS4 toolchain are both LLVM. So I can see some possibility there. Rust currently runs on it's own patchset now, but the intention is to be fully working with mainline LLVM.

I call both Soccer and AFL Football, and call Rugby, Footy. I only ever talk about AFL with my mother, Soccer with friends and Rugby with no one. It can be really confusing when all three are somewhat popular in one country.

I've only seen one thing actually use it in Go: func Polar(x complex128) (r, θ float64) { return Abs(x), Phase(x) } It seems to be good for documentation reasons.
