   Plus, most instructions are actually out-of-order on x86 (hence the out-of-order superscalar). So your "mov" will usually take (effectively) zero cycles -- unless there is a dependency. But compilers are usually smart enough to pi

   Not exactly, most instructions are not "microcoded" for performance reasons. But there is a class of instructions that is.

   asm("xorl %eax, %eax"); And I'm not sure about your example, a C pointer type would be stored as a number that will be used with "lea" or "mov [pointer], foo". Elaborate.

   Thats funny because C is a one-to-one mapping over assembly. And frankly its not using any esoteric instructions such as "PUNPCKHQDQ" or "VFNMADD231PS"

   I had a problem where fibers was working on v0.12.3 with two applications, and when I deployed a third one with the regular "npm install && forever start" deal I got a "package did not self-register" issue that w

    Code is really not doing anything, it would be equivalent (in output that is) to he following code with some sort of optimization. unsigned short data[8] = {0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0}; for(int i=0;i<8;i++) { data[i] += 0xff1; } for(

    Well I'm developing on a laptop with GTX 860M so I can still develop on a laptop, test on a workstation (GTX 970) and deploy to actual servers (Tesla)

    And so does CUDA, which usually out-performs OpenCL, plus the tooling for CUDA is just so much better with the Visual Studio integration.

    I'm not exactly sure what is the fascination with these blocky-looking, dumbed down, drag-and-drop languages that look the same? First code that I wrote was in QBASIC at age 10 (I'm 19 right now), which I found to be very accessib

    Right, but at those temperature the photons have near infrared frequency, hence they won't escape your house and simply heat it

    I recently started programming more using promises and I can say that I am very satisfied with the way it does away with the callback hell problem. Instead of taking a callback, a function returns a promise, which can be daisy-chained to do

    Yes, why wouldn't they work, they don't particularly rely on gravity to operate. But then the question is why use optical drives at all?

    Position independent code on x64 is quite trivial, it has a new instruction addressing mode called RIP-relative addressing so that the program can access everything relative to where it is currently executing.

    Well, um ,a diagonal matrix is already diagonalizaed (lol) so its P marix is {{1,0},{0,1}} and hence the you can use those two as your diagonal entries are the eigenvalues.

    Well, sure it 'uses" xml bases representation, but you can actually write the syntax in JSON and Sublime Text will compile it down to XML. Example: https://github.com/Nessphoro/sublimeassembly/blob/m

    He's not entirely wrong. The thing with centrifugal force is that by picking a different frame of reference, it completely disappears and the reason it arises is due to your frame of reference being different. Interestingly, however,
