Doubling the register size only affects things if CPU operations were the bottleneck. Often he bottleneck is memory accesses.

Yet another word for "top-down" design.

Well this seems to highlight that modifying code is harder than creating it, and yet again LLM does the easy thing ok.

Agility is implemented as a way to increase productivity. It does it with more detailed scrutiny of what workers do. Management understood very well that it's taylorism applied to our profession. Taylorism started with measuring every

exactly, when you look at the data it looks entirely like noise without any signal, why transmit that in the first place. And why losslessly.

The "trend" was started in 1920. In the HN typical bourgeois stance, people here are of course immune to cheap tricks like .99 price ; and will reject it as "non-science", a very unscientific way to reject something on t

I agree, and D with the GC lets me prototype quickly. Its type system gets progressively stricter with constraints, for code that survives. I wouldn't want all the type system to apply to prototype code or a nascent program.

Reading Harry Braverman suitably explains a lot of what is going in programming.

I'm using quality 98, but I have only a few encode to ship, so I can live with the encode times :)

Wonder how it compares to guetzli, which is good albeit slow (by Google also!).

Nowadays this is a fringe way to write SIMD code, if you use something like simd-everywhere you will be able to write SIMD code for ARM, x86, RISC-V... who share quite a bit of common ground. It's easy to think we can schedule instruct

It can be interesting if you need fast decode on low complexity, and it's an easy to improve format (-20 to -30%). Base QOI isn't that great.

I don't know, Windows 11 came with many things I've wanted for years: - notepad with tabs - shell UI with tabs, VT-100 support and ability to replace the shell - Paint.net with AI - even Windbg has massively improved

As a D cultist, I don't see why D would be any more viable rather than PureBASIC, microStudio, or Basic4GL if we're talking about kids that want an immediate result in an integrated IDE.

Well UX is not aesthetics. The linked website _has_ good UX.

PureBasic, microStudio, basic4GL... I'd say no OO or complexity need apply.

I haven't seen any of that tbh, I have seen a lot of disrespect come in direction of Walter and him responding in a gracious way actually. Criticism existence means it is allowed and thus is "open".

Rust is sort-of a skin for C++11 though in terms of semantics, while new languages have GC to increase productivity.

The name is unfortunate, there is nothing "closed" about D and OpenD ends up from the start with no rules as to what gets merged.
