Calling conventions are a compiler feature, and in some languages like zig, will let the LLVM backend fully optimize. In zig you can specify a different calling convention at any f…

IMHO this may be because with hyper-restrictive calling convention or register budgets, the compiler typically resorts to writing explicit MOV or stack PUSH/POP instructions to fre…

The issues from the 80s/90s were mostly fixed by POSIX in the 2000's. IIRC all major Unix-like systems ship with awk implementations that are POSIX-compliant by default today. With…

Better is to use the typesetting language Even on MacOS, save this as `doc.tr` .\" Index Macro .de IX .tm \\$1^\\$2^\\n% .. .\" Content .sp 2 This is the first page. We are talking…

When this post was written (1997 updated in 2001), awk wasn't very portable because you still had the awk,nawk,gawk flavors. With sed if you stuck with BRE and avoided ERE you were…

Most are targeted ALPR camera systems that take pictures of license plates, check the plates against local hot lists, and then flush the data if there’s no hit. Flock is building a…

Depends on quant size etc... Qwen3.6 35B-A3B Q4_K_XL a multiple 5060ti + tensor split mode + MPT will hit ~100/TPS without problem, and I have personally hit ~190/tps on a single 5…

I don’t know if others would find this useful, but previous did have custom harnesses etc.. but tools have improved so much that I drastically simplified. That said, even the found…

From the OP: > "I learned cursive as a child. Then I went for many years without using it much, and forgot some of it." While fountain pens may be nicer for cursive, they were very…

The non Hayes version was called Time Independent Escape Sequence or TIES, but there were multiple versions of these problems, with the later attacks documented in CVE-1999-1228 wh…

Gold is right next door, relativistic effects shrink both Gold and Mercury’s 6s orbitals. In gold it changes the color, in Mercury it changes freezing temperature. Gallium has a lo…

I almost got kicked off an early ISP for echo “+++ATH0” > ~/.plan On the shell host they provided, it would reliably hang up lots of modems if someone ‘fingered’ you back in the da…

Explaining relativistic effects in plain text forums to a general audience is a big ask, but here is a link to the first study[0] that gave evidence but it has long expected. [0] h…

While I am explicitly avoiding the how, have any of you successfully been accepted to a batch while taking a job with industry overlap, but not application overlap by using pre-hir…

That is because the way you were introduced to the concepts was targeted at didactic convenience and incremental teaching curricula. Pedagogical efficiency is important but care is…

I am not saying this result is correct, but you don't have unit safety in python at all In this example temperature would be a magnitude , not a unitful value. At least in the ISO …

I had to run NT4 on a 4100 in prod at my very first Internet startup job. We also had a bunch of 1000 and 1000a's, and an AlphaStation running AltaVista firewall all on NT. An ALR …

If you want podman equivalents, you can either use pods of multi containers are the need, or if multi arch builds are the main buildx need, OCI manifests work. Fedora and selinux m…

Maverick 400B is what Nvidia used for their claim of 1k+ TPS on Blackwell GPUs.

We still have the problem that auto regressive decoders are memory bound. The new Blackwell hardware combined with TensorRT-LLM and speculative decoding consistently can hit 1,000 …

Are you looking for highly ephemeral nodes, where you are writing automation that will use the API to orchestrate it? Or do you just want small microVMs that you launch and kill? F…

To be clear, I was talking about a use case, not all use cases. There are very real times where you have to support all 4 bytes, there are others where other drivers require you to…

Note the utf-8[0] in my response, the answers are on the pages you linked, but not in the sections you linked, utf-8 encodes code points in one to four bytes , it is byte oriented …
