I felt the same, but then thought of experts in their field. For example, my PhD advisor would already know all these papers. For him the prompt would actually be similar to what was shown in the video.

You are absolutely right, and a follow-up CL fixed the non-Zba code path. At the time of writing of the blog post, the generated code was however still using the 4 instructions instead of just two. V8 is a huge project and ports almost have

When Plasma crashes, all programs keep running. The only noticable thing (to me) is that the order of my apps in the task bar is different.

Pretty impressive. When I published Grisu (Google double-conversion), it was multiple times faster than the existing algorithms. I knew that there was still room for improvement, but I was at most expecting a factor 2 or so. Six times faste

If they can get the data without a user's consent, then it's independent of this new feature and thus unrelated. If you believe that the government has unlimited access, then it was most likely already possible before this feature

In that case they don't need consent anyway and it's not about this new feature.

Speed and reliability. We found that Python isn't really designed for constrained environments. The object model, in particular, makes it hard to have fast method calls. The memory layout is also affected by the language, leading to bi

A similar project: https://toitlang.org (or https://toit.io ). Currently it's only targeting the ESP32 family, but the code is pretty portable. By default, it probably also needs more resources due to OS-like abs

You will improve your language skills this way, but if your skill level isn't high enough it's going to be exhausting to the native speaker as well. I have been living in Denmark for 15 years now, and it's still easier to do

The other ones for me: - "go to your happy place", or "imagine you are on an island..." - counting sheep to fall asleep. I just couldn't visualize them.

I have aphantasia, and I don't feel handicapped at all. The only thing where I really notice differences is when trying to describe people. Since I can't visualize them in my head, I can only describe "known facts", like
