Wait till this guy learns about multiplication and division
Good thing the Chinese have given up all AI research now that Anthropic is on the case.
To me Perl was just Weird, to no particular end. Not the kind of mind expanding Haskell/Prolog/Lisp weirdness that opens up new possibilities. It just does roughly the same things as every other language, but everything…
Wasn't Intel trying to do something similar in Itanium i.e. use software to translate code into VLIW instructions to exploit many parallel execution units? Only they wanted the C++ compiler to do it rather than a…
Maybe that's true for this project (implementing pointer chasing list interpreter directly in hardware), but it's much less clear to me why it would be true of the much more commonly remembered examples of "lisp…
By many of these arguments assembly is also not a low-level language
You can write a function in go or rust, then write code in assembly to call it with any old nonsense. It is no different. The whole point of static typing is that it happens at compile time, not runtime.
I haven't written any ruby for over a decade and a half, when ruby 2.x was still on the horizon. But I do know the source of "eigenclass". It was first jokingly used in an odd instructional programming book / web comic…
In my experience there are two mistakes people sometimes make that leads to the fisheye lens look. The first, as parent mentioned, when calculating the ray directions you should linearly sample a line rather than…
