Not just architectures, but different OSes and ABIs have found ways to repurpose no-ops. One example[1] is Windows using the 2-byte "MOV EDI, EDI" as a hot-patch point: it gets replaced by a "JMP $-5" instruction which j

For anybody unfamiliar with this, as I was, this appears to refer to Intel's Indirect Branch Tracking feature[1] (and the equivalent on ARM, BTI). The idea is that an indirect branch can only pass control to a location that starts with

See my edit, I think this is just a confusion of terminology. I wouldn't really refer to someone whose position being made redundant as "getting fired", there's very different procedures to be followed and it has very di

That’s not an answer to the question posed.

If I remember correctly, it assumes the size of a char is greater than or equal to seven bits, and a char is defined to be the smallest addressable unit. C does not support bit-addressing.

I wouldn’t quite count it as bit-addressing, but x86, for example, can load bits directly into the carry flag using the BT instruction which can take a register or memory address as it’s first argument, with the bit being given as the secon

Not the commenter you're replying to, but I suspect what they mean is that the C memory model is byte-addressable not bit-addressable. You can't point/refer to a specific bit in memory, instead you have to first read the byte

I’m only using them as a stop-gap / for prototyping with the intent to move to a locally hosted fine-tuned (and ideally 7B parameter) model further down the road.

It's used in a lot of contexts, and it's faster to have it on hand rather than loading the constant from memory (which is slow on the N64).

Get out of here with that prescriptivist nonsense. It's perfectly valid to use "less" for all of those things in pretty much every dialect of English.

Um, no. You could could remove the register/__asm__("reg") qualifiers entirely and just specify "D" (rfd) as an input parameter and the code would work fine. There is absolutely no need for register there. The only

You should try Gentoo+systemd these days. I'm running KDE Plasma on my gaming PC, and it works pretty smoothly. Wayland still has a few rare hiccups, as I'm on NVIDIA, but for the most part works without issue.
