For Git did agents use the newer git history commands or prefer older multi step methods

I think it was more the extra layers of indirection added to function environment\effectively global variable access added in 5.2 . The removal of scanning for changed userdata fin…

There is work being done on Git to add pluggable object backends[1] by some GitLab devs that could changes things up a bit and make large object handling not suck Maybe Lore could …

Part of Windows Explorer actually does tons of tiny 4 byte ReadFile calls in to its tracking database like file when you delete a file. If you deleting lots of files this quickly a…

The Dishonored creators also talk about this and why they went for cover\LoS based stealth in lets play they did a couple days ago https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZVq0af9DwPU&t=137…

I think they just swapped out LuaJIT's modified built-it dlmalloc[1] with some standard allocator. Then just set some turning values of the allocator to make to more eager to retur…

GitHub had to solve the same problem when speeding up there code viewer. https://github.blog/engineering/architecture-optimization/cr...

I remember seeing that GPT-5 had two python tools defined in its leaked prompt one them would hide the output from user visible chain of thought UI.

Someone already created that[1] using custom kernel driver and there own CDN, but they seem to of abandoned it[2], maybe because they would of attracted Valve's wrath trying to mon…

There was commercial fork of clang zapcc[1] that did caching of headers and template instantiations with an in memory client server system[2], but idk if they solved all the correc…

Maybe they will use this chance to finally switch it away from the .NET Framework to the modern dotnet runtime with its many years optimizations.

AMD also switched to 16k(4 x 4K) down from 8 in Zen1 for there PTE Coalescing system that is effectively run length like compression of page table entries with sequential addresses…

I wonder if the premiums scale up depending on the temperature used for the model output.

You can sort of do that with some of LLVM's JIT systems https://llvm.org/docs/JITLink.html , I'm surprised that no one has yet made a edit and continue system using it.

I personally just went down the route of stripping down the FFI system when integrating LuaIT. It included things like removing the ability to define new ffi types\functions or loa…

That binary search benchmark probably triggers a trace explosion in LuaJIT like I've found quicksort does. If your lucky the function gets trace blacklisted, if not it ends up hitt…

There is a fork of Windirstat that also reads the NTFS MFT as well https://github.com/ariccio/altWinDirStat

It looks like there comparing apples to oranges for many of the benchmarks by using structs for daScript vs tables for Lua.

Its a book https://whenitsready.com/wowdiary/ originally sold as a kickstarter by one of the original Blizzard mappers made from notes they wrote while working on original wow. The…

At least AMD kept AVX-512 in there small Zen4C cores and just sacrificed some cache instead. I have to wonder if it was intel marketing that killed off working AVX-512 in consumer …

I thought the whole point of the hash was it could change arbitrarily with windows updates to stop programs reverse engineering it and then setting file associations or browser cho…

I would think anything with a JIT that is toggling the page protection for machine code many times a second, based on a very quick reading of the bug report talking about VirtualPr…

MSVC recently added there own version[1] of it controlled with a [[msvc::dispatch]] attribute thats needs an experimental compiler flag I think still. 1: C++ Function Multiversioni…

The author also worked on the Copy-and-Patch Compilation paper[1], I wonder if they are going to use the same idea for ones of tiers of the JIT idk if it would beat LuaJIT's JIT fo…
