I believe, it was pro-military, but not pro-war. The book idealizes the state and social system, and uses war only as a backdrop.

Compilers still prefer LEA to multiply on 3,5 and 9, which performs shift+add I believe.

First SmallTalk versions were built with Lisp. “Live environment” and “world image” were just inherited.

OMG! returns_struct looks actually correct to me, ie it is expected (by me). Golang's defer works this way. Do both examples follow standard? Or is it common misinterpretation by all compilers?

Do you use stanza?

There is the trick: use enum for const. It works most of the time.

It seems meson is gaining traction and will overpass cmake in near future.

In fact, CRuby successfully combined “Self Tagging” with pointer tagging. Here's the commit: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/b3b5e626ad69bf22be3228f8...

I mean, CRuby does “Float Self Tagging” for years. Paper just has the mistake about CRuby.

CRuby uses this technique on 64bit platforms for years. Edit: the commit https://github.com/ruby/ruby/commit/b3b5e626ad69bf22be3228f8...

Readability, reproducibility, and simple LRU. Reproducibility matters for tests, they become simpler. Some other algorithms become simpler as well. LRU is just a dict with preserving order: on access just delete and insert again.

What “Statically typed” would mean for SQL DB with extensible type system?

As a PostgreSQL smallish contributor I just can say: NO, DON'T DO THIS!!!! Extensible type system is a worst thing that could happend with database end-user performance. Then one may not short-cut no single thing in query parsing and o

First three are clearly documented in language reference, which could be read in several hours (at least before generics were introduced).

Most weird thing: PostgreSQL's checksum algorithm is almost free on modern processors. It uses SIMD instructions extremely well in optimized builds. I've never seen him in CPU profile despite I always enable it. There are no any r
