Right, I should have known, libunwind is a basic requirement for supporting a C++ runtime on a target.

Can you elaborate? Isn't the c++ exception system built on top of setjmp/longjmp? For setjmp to have a measurable performance impact, you have to be calling it an awful lot. It is just a handful of mov instructions without depende

Another "grew up playing AC" here and fondly remember interacting with Bael'Zharon on the Harvestgain server during the life events. Did you also blow up Arwic? :D I still use AC and to some extent AC2 as an example of how wi

It's very risky. The price has a tendency to jump up briefly when a large short needs to cover its position.

Possibly, but I would argue we're not doing a very good job at that. Things like precedent rules plug into what we're used to for mathematical expressions, but that's only a small part of actual programming. Teaching novices

You can link in and interop fine with C/C++ as long as you link in the D runtime, kind of how you can mix C and C++ by linking in libcxx. D's betterC mode ensures that the binary can run purely on libc without D's runtime lib

I get your point, but it seems to ignore the geopolitics involved in something like the CHIPS act. Those government investments are not to save the poor struggling semi industry, it is a strategic move to limit overseas dependencies in a su

The current slump seems purely caused by a demand drop. It will take years to see the capacity increase because of those government investments. By then, we will hopefully be out of this recession.

A good netcode that does not trust the client already gets you most of the way. Games developed for consoles first trust the client to a large extent, so the PC ports are easy to write cheats for.

They key is who is offering the higher price and is there a pattern. A company with a dominant market position can use the resources that flows from said dominance to keep out competitors.

A succinct way to distinguish both is to focus on what problem they solve: > Concurrency is concerned about correctness, parallelism concerned about performance. Concurrency is concerned about keeping things correct[1] when multiple thi

Not exactly new no. QC simulators have been in use since before the actual machine have. And even a schmuck like me has developed a QVM for a phd nearly a decade ago. https://github.com/yvdriess/qvm Their qvm is probab

Similarly, the Ardennes draft horse genetic stock survived because of an (unsuccessful attempt at) an horse-meat breeding industry. It's usually not economical to breed a horse just for meat, which in my eyes makes it a relatively ethi

Are you sure it wasn't done before by IBM in the '60s? That's usually the case. For hardware, at least For software, it usually was done before by Lisp in the '70s.

I just love the irony that one needs to manually insert newlines to copy over code to automate inserting newlines.
