The part of this that's the most interesting to me is the fact that it is worthwhile for the compiler to expend the effort looking for this optimization opportunity. I would expect…

ChatGPT tells me that it would take a very large array to detect distance with any accuracy

One day I want to build something like this, except for sound. It would be great to get a heading and distance for where a sound is coming from. This could be both for small scale …

I wonder if it would ever start to make sense to burn an AI model into ROM, replacing a large portion of an inference machine's RAM with ROM. (Probably not, since I'm sure those ma…

Is there a URL for that language? It is unfortunately a bit un-googleable!

I have this book and like it. I also wish there was a book that guided you through the process of implementing a language with accurate garbage collection, similar to how Crafting …

I have a suspicion these new prices will stick around, even after the RAM shortage ends. Speaking of which, what's the timeline of the RAM shortage ending? I have no sense for whet…

How do the linear types here relate (or not relate) to the Borrow Checker in Rust?

This 404s for me

The README references Electroboom's implementation

It would also be fun to have a full computer algebra system (like maxima) on a phone

I bet if you took one of Taalas' cards which consumes 200 watts for 14,000 tokens/second [0] and slowed it down by a factor of 10, it would actually be quite reasonable to power by…

I've been going through Nora Sandler's Writing a C Compiler book and writing a compiler in Python. I'm excited to start the chapters on optimization - those seem like the most fun …

I'd be very curious to know what class of vulnerability these tend to be (buffer overrun, use after free, misset execute permissions?), and if, armed with that knowledge, a determi…

How does the benchmark tell how many branches were mispredicted? Is that something the processor exposes?

Back when I lived in SF, there was one bus route (the 6, I believe) that I could use to get to work. The bus was so slow due to frequent, long stops and traffic lights that I could…
