    Well it has actually. MLIR (being built by the LLVM team) is basically the next generation of LLVM and one of the MLIR tutorials is literally "write Halide". https://mlir.llvm.org/…

    So as someone who is by no means an expert you are half right. The compiler doesn't have to guess what parts are parallel and it's very clear which ops are parallelisable but how y…

    That article you linked says exactly what I said. They aren't required but they are customary.

    Subnautica has a somewhat related concept which is that at the end of the game you have the ability to send a single time capsule to the maps of new players. They contain text, a p…

    I think you are thinking about something different. So "Push Notifications" can refer to two different things. The user oriented term refers to on-device notifications that pop up …

    Yes that is the goal of google's push service. The benefit of this service is mainly for people who can't or don't want to use google's push service. Namely for users of de-googled…

    But what is your email client using for notifications? If it's using intermittent/timed fetch, that runs into the latency problem (taking longer to receive notifications). Push not…

    The purpose of this standard is to replace Google's FCM push notifications so that you can receive push notifications on a mobile device for a bunch of services while only needing …

    ? I think I'm misunderstanding your comment. This replaces the entire push notification infrastructure. The "distributor" receives notifications onto the device and sends them to t…

    It's not that the body's response is problematic. It's that scratching is still problematic even if it does help some. The main issue with scratching is that it injures the surroun…

    The goal is not to make yourself whole and even if it didn't work out, they could de-transition (and should be supported in doing so). Stopping HRT (as long as you at least tempora…

    To be honest I don't think that's really concerning. It's not unusual for people even into their late 20s to experiment and figure themselves out. And sometimes that experimentatio…

    Yeah. And ngl porting up to newer versions of CMSIS isn't too terribly hard. I'm looking at porting up to CMSIS 6 soon and it doesn't look like it'll be that bad either.

    The point of Chesterton's fence is that the fence was created for a specific reason and then was removed without addressing that. Replacing that fence with something built for an e…

    The fence is a restriction. i.e. a regulation or series of rules. These committees make those rules. It's not just a state of being. Getting rid of a fence doesn't mean there's mag…

    That's not how Chesterton's Fence works? The point isn't that the fence was always there. It's that people who try to dismantle the fence never bothered to learn why the fence was …

    With 100% humidity you definitely can't survive or function but with 95% at 100F exactly it's just barely feasible. That gives you just enough margin due to evaporative cooling tha…
