c++ is an abomination, come on, let's stay honest, we all know that by now. It should not be even taught anymore. It IS the mother of all super villain computer languages. We have to stop to be hypocrit now.

Still implemented with the super villain language, c++?

huh... then why it feels significantly slower since I did not touch the build conf.

LLM not enough anymore?

You mean it is not default anymore?

Got myself a shiny python 3.13.3 (ssl module still unable to compile with libressl) replacing a 3.12.2, feels clearly slower. What's wrong?

Like the latest assassin's creed (in order to run at reasonable speed since they ship RT emulation). Had a look at some streams: look the same than those before. And many games look more beautifull without RT. I think we have a case of

I still cannot "test" AI with a noscript/basic (x)html browser. Well, those public prompts.

You know what did happen millions of years ago when the monkeys started to use tools. Time of AI to know how to use tools, like a mathematical formal solver. Well, it is already done, but it is not LLM... soooo.. academics only?

Bad Move. github.com broke noscript/basic (x)html interop for most if not all core functions (which were working before). The issue system was broken not that long time ago. And one of the projects which should worry about, even enforc

And if it could compile without requiring gcc or clang, for instance cproc, tinycc, scc, etc...

Maybe the guys here know: Is there a little 3D/GFX/game engine (plain and simple C written) strapped to a javascript interpreter (like quickjs) without being in apple or gogol gigantic and ultra complex web engines? Basically, a s

Funny, I am doing exactly the other way around: I run small RV64 linux programs on x86_64 linux. I cannot way for the first AAA games to run on ultra-performant RISC-V(RV23+) microarchitectures made with the state-of-the-art silicon process

The whatng cartel has only 3 web engines which can compile with only 2 c++ compilers: The web engines are: - mozilla geeko - apple webkit - gogol blink (fork of webkit) The compilers are: - gcc (MIT) - clang (apple). Providing real-lif

And some critical rust issues for games are not dealt with: on tiny glade with the devs did hit a libgcc issue on the native elf/linux build, and we did discovered that the rust toolchain for elf/linux targets does not support the

I explicitely do disable register ABI alias names, pseudo-instructions and transparent "optimizations", because I run the RISC-V binary in my own x86_64 assembly written little RISC-V machine code interpreter which does support on

I don't feel comfy using duplicate instructions for a 'R'educed instruction set. That said, I know in some cases it could increase performance since the code would use less memory (and certainly more things which I don't

Indeed, that why HN comments are kind of dead (AIs, zealots with one billion accounts behind VPNs, etc). Sometimes I do still try to give an honest, but unpleasant, opinion/fact though. I should stick to raw neutral communication and i

gcc and glibc SDKs are hell beyond anything sane. Like it is done on purpose.

I am coding RISC-V assembly (which I run on x86_64 with a mini-interpreter) but I am careful to avoid the usage of the pseudo-instructions and the registers aliases (no compressed instruction ofc). I have a little tool to generate constant

Is that one of the problem quantum computers would resolve instantly if it is actually possible to scale them up?

One key element is noscript/basic (x)html interop for the web, where _reasonable_ of course. And tons of online services can be provided like that as they were a few years back. At least the critical/"very utility" onlin

What's terrible are the humans writing such software... But if AI can help to fight those people's work, good for humanity I guess. That said... Is AI going to de-obfuscate/reverse engineer their obsfuscated AI prompts or web

RISC-V new hardware is alway good news. Waiting for this ultra-performance RISC-V 64bits implementation using state of the art silicon process. But here, has the USB controller a device mode?

And who in going to "verify" the machine code produced by the compiler used for the python interpreter itself? (then the hardware would have to be validated as well if complex ISA). The point is, cryptography should be mostly if n

Hopefully their build scripts are sane for native elf/linux support: * -static-libgcc (-static-libstdc++ if c++). * glibc ABI selection, see binutils documentation, VERSION related page, the second part of this page. This must include

Yep, and that's shooting in the foot the "people" (I stay polite) trying to hide this intuitive "pedagogical" perspective for some agenda of their own...
