They were sued [1]. The lawsuit lasted 7 years and ended in a settlement. The terms were not public, but I think it's likely they promised to institute a process that goes above and beyond what the DMCA requires. [1]: https:/&#x2

An endless supply of money sounds like a great source of tax revenue. It's rather difficult to evade a property tax.

If that were true, they wouldn't have defined the equality operators for floating point types. Some numbers are exactly representable and some numbers are not [1]. It's difficult, but you can in fact reason about the exact results

It doesn't sound like they really started until 2017, but the movie appears to be in post-production. I think the delay from 2021 to 2022 was about finding a good release window.

> You cannot use equality in floating point. Sure you can. 1.0 + 2.0 == 3.0. There's a lot of gotchas, but it is possible to make useful comparisons.

Avatar 2 is scheduled for next year, and there's a movie every second year until 2028.

TBB is a great C++ library, but it seems like the existence of great C++ libraries should a point in favour of C++, not a point against it.

That does amaze me. I remember booting taking ages on my 166MHz Windows 98 machine. I'd press the power button and go do something else while it booted.

I suppose the main point I was trying to convey is that the code snippet gopalv quoted is not ugly because it's C-like. That ternary expression doesn't appear in the original C++ implementation at all. Many of the things people ar

> One of my fundamental aims for C++ is (from the very start in 1979) to provide equally good support for user-defined and built-in types. For example, I’d like to be able to build an integer type that is as good as the built-in int in e

To me, the original C-style code looks nicer than the Java. C++: bool found_minus = (*p == '-'); bool negative = false; if (found_minus) { ++p; negative = true; if (!is_integer(*p)) { // a

They're labeled as 6" and 12" on the menu. What does 12" mean if not twelve inches?

They had this bug before in other code unrelated to caching. To me, that suggests a deeper root.

I empathize. There have been plenty of mistakes. Trust is difficult to earn, and clearly we have not acted in a manner deserving of yours. When I first encountered ROCm, my impressions were mixed. The idea thrilled me, but the execution did

So, just up front: these are my personal opinions. I do not speak on behalf of AMD as a company. I'm just a software developer who works on ROCm. I joined AMD specifically because I wanted to help ROCm succeed. If the problems you enco

Thank you. That is useful information. I'll also have to find something my employer is happy with me working on, but I think you've pretty clearly laid out what I'd be signing up for, and I appreciate it.

That does seem like it would be a sensible way of going about things if I could manage to find a package of modest complexity that is important to me, but under-maintained.
