No, typically what happened is during the low interest rate era of 2007-2020 companies pumped money in to their pensions schemes to try to meet their future employee liabilities (most of which are still way out in the future) Now that rates

Not sure what you're talking about here. The cruft the assembly is because you enabled UBSAN. If you disable UBSAN then the exception throwing code paths go away.

GCC generates essentially the same assembly for C++'s std::optional<int> with the exception that the result can't be returned in a register (a problem which will go away if the function is inlined) https://gcc.god

Yeah. That research is pretty damning The CDN and proxy operators are in a tight spot here also, since disabling connection reuse for upstream requests will likely crush performance.

Parsers for HTTP/1.x are kind of a solved problem though, even in unsafe languages. The danger is always when someone thinks they can do it themselves as a 30 minute side quest.

I interviewed with them as well. Something like 6-8 interviews only to be told they then, after that, were circulating my CV amongst teams and didn't have a fit for me... But yes, like you I had a great experience

Unfortunately std::deque is hobbled in the Microsoft implementation. Its block size is such that if T is larger than 8 bytes it devolves to a linked list. And it can't be fixed due to binary compatibility. https://github.com

If tariffs really raised money in the way Trump pretends then the US government could surely just grant Intel a direct share of all tarrif revenue raised from sales in to the US from Tawain? Of course the reality is you're just taxing

This isn't about illegal sites? I don't think many people object to blacklisting known sources of child pornography etc. The fact is you now have to verify your identity (name and photo id) in the UK to access an adult subreddit.
