Not only that, the M68k has the mulu.l instruction which is an unsigned 32-bit multiplication instruction. Go it has all the instructions you need.

Except whatsapp at least used to run on Erlang, which definitely was pushing that kind of data. GC languages can have much better performance than non-GC languages (for many reasons, several of them mentioned here), and the main disadvantag

When I was a kid in Sweden back then I didn't know it was a Singapore company. Now that I have also live in Singapore, I learned quickly that it was local, as it's very well regarded here.

The P/E is 34.31 compared to about 5 for Mercedes. There is plenty of room to drop further.

The best use cause is a system where you have vast spikes in compute requirements on rare occasions. You can then use AWS to get those resources for limited period of time. For this user case, it actually works pretty well. For anything els

Less parking, sure. But self driving cars will do nothing to reduce traffic. The problem isn't the number of cars in existence, but rather how many cars are actually driving around at any given point. This number will surely go up with

It appears that the audio broadcasting is delegated to a proprietary product: https://livekit.io/ Is there any way to host this with only open source software?

No. The domain part is the instance. When you migrate, your old account is set to point to the new one, and a notification is automatically sent to your followers so they can automatically follow you on the new instance.

Different instances have different limits. If you want even more constraint you can use oulipo.social where you're not allowed to use the letter e. Or you can go to dolphin.town where you're only allowed to use the letter e.

The difference is in your reaction to loss. If people spend a few dollars on the lottery, most people are not going to be upset when they lose. Of course, they're are always people who spend everything they have on gambling, but most p

There is a lot of development happening in the area of APL-insipred programming languages. I've spent far too much time working on an APL dialect that allows you to combine APL with imperative structures at the same time. I really need

The Fediverse feeds are not uniform. You may have a "federated feed" in your Mastodon instance, but the feed you see on your instance is vastly different from another instance. The federated feed is nothing more than a combined li

It doesn't really. Freeing heap objects in C++ is an expensive operation. You may want to look into how that is implemented in the common allocators. In Java, an allocation is literally a single instruction (adding a value to the heap

Doing a full reload of the system once in a while (especially after large changes) also helps. Just because you can keep a REPL open for days doesn't mean that's always the best idea.

I'm not sure it'll hurt that much. The dotcom bust affected the entire economy and a vast number of people were directly invested in these companies. The impact of a complete implosion of the entirety of the cryptocurrency economy

That may become the case in the US, but in places like Sweden you have to announce long before the actual layoffs to give the unions a chance to negotiate. I went through a layoff where they announced they had to make major reductions in he

But banks don't really pay interest anymore, so in some sense I'd expect them to keep it uninvested.

May I ask what instance you were on? A lot of guides don't talk about it, but there is a dark version of Fediverse, often references as the "freeze peach" instances. They are generally blocked by most mainstream instances, bu

That's fair, and a concern I share with you. I've been a heavy user of the Fediverse since 2017, and what I see right now is a bit of an eternal september moment. I'm hoping it'll return to some kind of normal once the c

That would be nice. But at some point, someone will both have the resources as well as the luck of being at the right place and a new, possibly more powerful (because they will be more competent than twitter) platform will take over. Unfort

The EU has their own instance. You likely saw messages from that one that was federated with your instance. They may also have created an account before their instance was live, but their posts should all be from their instance now so if yo

There are plenty of instances who makes it a selling point that they don't block anything. If the have free speech in their name, you can assume that's the case. The end result however is what you'd expect and the experience

Last I looked at it I wasn't even able to remap all the keys. I've been an IDEA user since around 2002, and I remember it took them many years before it was possible to set it up with Emacs keybindings that wasn't horrible. W

I think OP may be talking about Fleet, which seems to be an attempt at making their IDE into something taken out of the webapp design rulebook. If that's the future of IntelliJ IDEA, then I don't want to develop using their tools

I'm not sure you'd want to write maths that way. Every WYSIWYG equation editor I've used are very annoying to work with. Displaying equations is a different thing and it's supported by many tools. Maxima for example has

My ISP gives me a static /48. I'm currently using 5 subnets, so I could probably have survived with a /56. I'm glad I have a full /48 though. I switched from my previous ISP because they only have me a /64. It

In Susskinds book The Theoretical Minimum, he explains this and suggests that the word stationarising would be more accurate, as the goal is to make the lagrangian stationary and not minimal. I haven't read any other textbooks on the t

Visitor only exists to deal with limitations in the language. Every use of Visitor I've seen had been an absolute nightmare to maintain. I'd rather just use reflection than implement something using Visitor. And I think that'

The sound in this video is pretty bad, but several years ago I did a talk showing how this development style work on a real project, and I think it may answer some of these questions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bl8jQ2wR
