Unless you're expecting an LLM to have access to literally all information on earth at all times I find it really hard to care about this particular type of complaint. My calculator can't conjugate German verbs. That's fine I

And I'm inclined to agree re autovec (fragile or not the code usually isn't that good) but that's to me at least why the JIT aspect isn't particularly attractive i.e. you'd have to do the work anyway, no?

With those flags I still can't seem to get it to do anything particularly interesting to a fixed length memset (e.g. at small N I would expect to see SSE instructions at least)

That's true although I think it not quite the same as freeware in the sense that we can realistically (say) fine tune an open model in ways that don't quite apply to (say) someone sending you a binary

> Zeroing and copying, all string operations, Some of this is isel, some of this is fairly heavy autovec - does it actually do the latter on the fly? I would've thought that for memcpy and so on you'd drag around a hand tuned i

> Having JIT is an advantage w.r.t. selecting the best SIMD instruction set. On paper yes but does anyone really rely on it? multiversioning is easy to do in a aot model too and even then most people don't bother. obviously sometime

memcmp and friends can be a funny one when looking at disasm Depending on context and optimization settings we might see: - Gone entirely - A memcmp call has been inlined and turned into a single instruction - It's turned into

Isn't it also true that Apple have dozens of different scm / developer platforms scattered around the company? e.g. some teams use gitlab, others phabricator etc etc

An interesting secondary meaning of "design by committee", the reason why what you mention happens, is "design in committee". People can skip the usual lifecycle and feedback for an idea by presenting jumping directly

Kind of the other way around in some ways e.g. at very short end of the yield curve you are basically just trading the market expectation of what the Fed will do, +- credit and liquidity and so on, whereas further out things are way more co

The only rating system you actually need is binary (or "the binary") Is it good or bad? Would you eat it again or not? Are they hot? Would you? etc Every thing else can be expressed with words on the side.

Yes and part of it being a _free_ market is that you don't have to trade with these people. I also note that the examples of regulations you give are all regularly agreed upon voluntarily without some higher (i.e. state) power telling
