There are more assembler dialects than I care to remember. The 2A06 assembler that people who write NES code (and later on SNES/GB/etc) use has some real quirks: $ prefixes a literal hex value but % is binary, but # in front of th

Technically, the GPL has no such direct requirement, only a theoretical one, from everything that I’ve seen. If that were the case, no automaker or fridge manufacturer that ships Android would be able to, since in so many of their products,

Speed. It all comes down to speed. Processing RAW can be expensive time wise. If you’re sorting through a session of 10,000 photos, you want the speed that comes with the jpeg variant, which allows you to quickly sort out blurry, smeared, s
