Well heavy motors actually do stop easily, but issue is just that detecting when to stop becomes harder. It is something that can be solved by measuring more precisely or adding extra sensors, but somewhere costs were cut and some part of t

And phone batteries turn quickly into spicy pillows if they are kept constantly attached to a charger.

There are million ways to hide exploits even in "safe" languages. If you have a bad actor that can spend couple years prepping how to hide an exploit, then it doesn't really matter which programming language is used. Build sy

Perspective really changes when simple integer addition can take more time than allocation in a compiled language.

Eh... Haven't seen anyone using 3kk to abbreviate 3M. 3M is common and B for billion. Those are also used in many games to shorten currencies.

But it often isn't in the stack. This is a vector type so it is often modified and used as part of math operations. Each vector field is probably in some register because it was used to calculate something and then has to be stored bac

No. Actually that is the whole problem here. That is pretty much exactly what the compiler does thanks to ABI. ABI says that the value must be passed by pointer so it has to store it somewhere to get the pointer, which is exactly the same t

In AMD64 ABI, anything larger (that doesn't fit in register) will be returned by basically output pointer argument. Caller reserves space for the return value and gives pointer to the function which then fills it with the return value.

Isn't SteamDeck's OS based on Arch? So that probably is large factor.

Based on the graph the fast function runtime is really short. You might be just seeing effects of efficiency vs performance cores. Lower thread count makes most of the stuff run on performance cores and task end times align more nicely. Wit

The power loss by the resistance scales in the square of the current and linearly to the resistance. So doubling voltage reduces resistance power loss to one quarter so you could lower wire size and increase its resistance to double and sti

That isn't enough. You'd need to wrap getenv calls as well and that can't be done as there are hidden getenv calls in stdlib implementation. There isn't a trivial fix.

I think Mumble's popularity in EVE scene is due to its support for talking to multiple channels simultaneously and ability to do hierarchical voice channels. This is require for large scale battle coordination. Battle group commanders

Yes. This article doesn't provide any actual conserns. Government needs good way to reliably identify its citizens if it wants to provide online services for them. It has to be strong identification anyway because most online services

They are not using LLM to directly produce the result code, but as tool that lists which optimisations should be done and in which order, which is fairly complex problem to solve. But if optimisation passes are implemented correctly (which

Large part of why standard was changed so that GCC's copy-on-write strings became non-standard compliant was because CoW made std::string_view and such extremely hazardous. CoW has its benefits but also huge downsides, and small-string

I think it actually makes much more sense to overproduce energy with renewables and then just use extra for something. Crypto is a bit stupid use case, hydrogen production or something actually useful would be better. Negative prices reduce

Well there is also that small issue that implementing security for this design is pretty much impossible without destroying performance and end result is quite standard operating system. Polling style scheduling will just be so slow if call

What would be gained by making more different formats? Also #!/bin stuff is executable in sense and the most files in Windows that have default application set. Dirt simple model works until it doesn't. Without address space separ

Currently probably biggest advantage is electric car charging. It is easy and cheap to add high power fast charger when there is already 3 phases available. 400V between phases so 230V per phase. Safety is provided by making plugs not expos

400V three phase is wired to all houses at least here in Finland. All 3 phases are wired to the electric box and then that splits phases to normal sockets and for lighting etc. Ovens use three phases and detached houses usually have separat

Linux kernel API itself isn't really enough to do eg. any UI software, because things like creating windows or showing notifications, are not part of it directly. You need additional software on top of that for those features. Win32 AP

Well Python doesn't really do proper multi-threading currently thanks to GIL blocking any additional execution threads. So removing it would enable making Python code that is actually multi-threaded without resorting to extra processes

The bitmasks in the code are adjusted so that it works with that specific pattern of numbers to other letters. Masks only pick bits from digits when the are in those specific positions. So this solution only works when the digit character p
