How else could they justify their spending and pre-IPO valuation?
I don't think we're particularly in disagreement here, I think pinnacle product in manys eyes can be both reputational(prob workstation) or economic in addition to technical, so my reply was mostly in terms of replying…
Umm, Java/JVM has mostly static typing (if you discount the generic mess) but regardless Java/JVM computations has no type-tags for values (vtables for object types however). This discussion is mostly in relation to…
Yep, felt quite stupid when I heard this ages ago and hadn't thought of it (Iirc in an old IRC chat about Maximes old Higgs runtime), from my memory V8 did this from day 1.
100% agreed (see my sibling comment), this all accumulates for in-language function calls,etc since code at runtime often spends a surprising amount of time just moving around values instead of doing useful work, having…
This was probably 15-20 years ago at this point but I was doing a lot of micro-tests in terms of dynlang->C/C++ transpilers (in relation to my MsC thesis) to see the effects of different value-models, GC strategies and…
I think you're conflating different requirements/usecases. Sure, a type-1 hypervisor like vSphere is technically better since there's no host OS creating unmanageable contention and if you have guests with higher…
I still do "random" browsing in FF with NoScript, that said, I'll acknowledge the frequency of updates of Chrome,etc and years of hardening. It's not the Bonzi-buddy and driveby-installed IE toolbars wild west of the…
Keyword is students, 5-10 years ago I was involved in teaching non-programmers how to develop so however people act once in the profession is irrelevant to this discussion really.
> Was that the first/only moment you had a draining/bad student? Seems quick to give up because of one bad experience, maybe this was repeating? Coding was hard enough that even most bad students understood they knew…
Paths and shortcuts isn't the most important part here I think, rather negative signals about unfitting choices is more important, do we use algorithm/library/etc XYZ in this situation or not, the developers using it…
They probably _were_, since lower level code representations often has little notion of complex types and their semantics they could be kept clean and focused on machine code, however type inference in a language like…
Register allocation is usually on a far "lower" codegen level as is often DCE, they should be possible to compute/run on a SSA node level or similar long after destruction sequences are applied. Now, there is far more…
Their system can run with various models, they go into more details in this article. https://aisle.com/blog/system-over-model-zero-day-discovery-...
Maybe they realized that they were falling behind too much? To me it seems like user-feedback on bad descisions by the AI once it's trained to a basic level is among the most important signals in tuning the model to…
RVO is easy to detect since it happens only in expressions in return-statements. NRVO requires the compiler to analyze the flow, like if 2 different variables/constructions can lead to the return (what one do we take,…
Someone should copyright the American flag and popular advertised variants of blue/white/red and something alike and start DMCA'ing politicians, maybe that would wake them up to how bad the law is?
The hyperscalers were stable customers buying far more expensive equipment and NVidia has also made a bank selling a lot of auxillary hardware like Mellanox to AI datacenters. But the spending spree is probably coming…
This is something to underscore, US people always talks about how "big and sprawling" the US is, but there's fiber at my fathers house in Northern Sweden that's in an area with similar population density to Wisconsin or…
I think you design in layers, frontends that work as clients to TigerBeetle for work in batches (as mentioned by the sibling comment), but the whole idea of removing latency differences by removing unpredictability…
Exactly, my kids knew how to convert between the formats at a fairly young age.
Another large part of using SSE for floating point arithmetic today is that while the floating point stack was very good for code-density (I still use older compilers for size-optimized C code for demoscene intros), it…
Dolt had an interesting article on the subject, basically to get it more reliable in terms of similar size distribution they basically had a split threshhold function that shrunk by the current size, i did a bit of…
The thing is that doing a separation for editors necessitates that you create a "client-server" protocol and things needs to flow through it, and that adds quite a bit of complexity over a "plain" editor. And for…
The energy mix for electricity in Sweden, Norway and Finland is mostly made up of hydro+nuclear+wind, especially wind and hydro complements each other very well since hydro is very much on-demand and can cover for most…
