Well, "big new" sounds like a destructive qualification. Why can't it be "big" and "old"? https://arxiv.org/pdf/1712.01208.pdf

I have no idea. I have been watching 5-6 similar Go projects (some with the same name) which lost interest (some stopped after first commit), tried to create their own versions of coreutils (incompatible), never saw adoption, testing, or su

go-coreutils is abandoned, and not POSIX compliant. It was meant to be a proof-of-concept, and it kind of was, in a negative way.

There's significant infrastructure in place that uses i386. It used to be fairly popular, I'm sure you can google it.

If you can't measure (very well?), how would you know the improvement in a certain use-case exists or not?

I suspect you know what 'feel' and 'perceive' mean, and just being quarrelsome.

Not quite like that at all. The Minoans were known to carve semi-precious gemstones and the Mycenaeans known to have adopted it from them from the 16th century BC (source: "Encyclopedia of European Peoples, Vol 2, entry on "Mycena

I might try it again sometime in the future, when it doesn't take more than 5 seconds to get a result to a query.

Is that an opinion?

It's not a new approach; the equivalence was published ~1999 IIRC. It also affects speedup; tensor slicing can now be fully parallelised.

The phrase is used in English to convey the same meaning, as well. The GP is probably being intentionally dense for some effect that eludes me.
