Also, depending on the country, you can be hold responsible if someone use your exit node to do something illegal. As far as I remember, in France, you can get the same status as an ISP (don't remember the name though) to be able to ru

It's because they just use the name of the actual AVX ops ( https://software.intel.com/sites/landingpage/IntrinsicsGuide... ). This is a low-level lib. They don't want to hide anything. If you see _mm * y

This is an example of doing manual SIMD. In some cases, it's still needed. Manual SIMD tend to be faster than what even the most modern compiler can provide. Because it is low level, it won't be fancy, but you can find several lib

Some of the criteria are insanely subjective. For example: look. First off, as far as I remember, Qt and Gtk can be configured to use the OS theme, which mean that your GUI will respect the overall desktop theme. Electron does nothing of th

Just the battery production can take 2-4 years to offset compare to a gasoline car[1]. Then you also have to take into account that battery have to be replaced regularly and the overall production of the car pollution. It would be more ecol

Singapore really disincentives the usages of cars. Which is understandable when you have to cram 5 millions peoples on 722km2. Car, and especially car infrastructure take a lot of space. It is something you can afford when you have the spac

Let's look at a simple fact: Finland as a Parliament of 200 seat for a population of roughly 5.5 million. France as a Parliament of 577 seat for a population of roughly 67 million. Thats around 3 times more representative per citizen.

You are not wrong. But at the same time, you can see from their scope: They have to compete against countries where the cost of labor and the cost of living is much less. Meaning, they can hardly sell their product as the same price as farm

As a French, I didn't expect to see José Bové on HN. He is indeed a controversial person. A lot of his action where as much praised as they were criticized. Especially when it came to GMO which he was fiercely against. But overall, all

You could check that the vote adds up, but you cannot check that the vote are correct. Since Voatz is basically a private blockchain, there is no way to check that the blockchain was tampered with, or even saved the correct votes, before th

I honestly don't have any opinion about it as i am not knowledgeable about this thing. I was just re-stating what the article is saying, and it didn't say that RISC-V doesn't have SIMD.

Thats not the point of the article. I doesn't say that RISC-V doesn't support SIMD, it argue that in the real world, we prefer big instruction like SIMD that do a lot of thing "at once", which is not what RISC-V as been

Firstly, calling Notre Dame a National symbol is a bit exaggerated. Honestly, for a lot of French not living in Paris, Notre Dame is just another Cathedral with a lot of advertisement because its Paris (France/French relationship with
