Interesting. It looks like it just doesn't allow narrowing types of class members and globals, sidestepping this whole issue. I like the Dart approach here. Users of the language can always bind a local variable to the thing you want a

I recently set up autossh + tmux for this. I don't use mosh, because I use X forwarding to share the clipboard with my remote session, and mosh does not support X forwarding.

inlining only goes so far. You won't get full of qsort to be inlined, and if it's not inlined, it needs to be at least cloned to be on par with std::sort, so the comparator function could get const-propagated. AFAIK out of the maj

You can corrupt the stack without VLAs just fine. What else?
645.
by planede 4y ago
C++ doesn't allow accessing other function arguments in a default argument, is in some sense the VLA trick is more powerful.
646.
by planede 4y ago
What's wrong with VLAs is their syntax. It really shouldn't use the same syntax as regular C arrays, otherwise they would be fine, maybe with a scary enough keyword. They are more generic than alloca too, alloca being scoped to th

The difference between Bayesian and frequentist statistics is that they answer different questions. People are often more interested in the questions that Bayesian statistics answer, and so they often misinterpret frequentist results to als

So this is mostly about __subclasshook__. How does this interact with mypy type checking? There must be some tension there too. edit: I guess I found my answer [1]. That's kind of expected, but it's still ugly. https://

Some games allow adding motion blur, but it still doesn't get close to the experience of a higher frame rate. I think the problem is actually the opposite. In real life if you follow a moving object with your eyes then you expect its i

My naive understanding is that some of it is because if you follow an object on the screen with your eyes, it gets motion blurred on your retina as it stays still for ~1/30 s on the screen while your eyeball moves. It is possible to im

Uh, couldn't disagree more. I just discourage the use of pull itself, but having it and defaulting to rebase is quite invasive.

Right, but make sure that all externalities are properly payed by fuel/road/vehicle taxes, so individual incentives are not distorted by not having to pay those.

I think a lot of people trivialize XML parsing here. Given how many dedicated libraries screwed up JSON parsing, which should be much easier, I have very little faith in people getting XML parsing right in-house.

While that's true, the PDEP/PEXT numbers are a bit on the extreme side on AMD early generations. On Zen1 and Zen2 these instructions have latency and rthroughput of 18 and 19 clock cycles respectively. On Zen3 it's a perfec

by planede 4y ago
Just be aware that even though these instructions are supported on pre-zen3 AMD, they are pretty much emulated and not very fast. Otherwise I agree that these are awesome, I know a fast Hilbert-curve implementation using those.
