I think the conclusion section should indicate that they are based entirely on GCC 16's behavior and current implementation. We should avoid generalizing one compiler's behavior and performance. Curious how this same test would be

It should be possible to have the PPU emulation capture all of the final register state per pixel (or scanline if accuracy isn't paramount) and have the GPU render each pixel using only that state, doing the layer blending, color math,

Very cool! Checking out the Van Gogh painting in the viewer I can just barely see the depth of the brush strokes. Shame you can't look 90 degrees off axis to see the protrusion effect with the bulky outer frame in the way.

Very cool idea, but unfortunately the browser doesn't allow users to select which channel of their audio interface to use as input. So unless you're plugging your guitar into input 1 this doesn't work out. I have my microphon

Reminds me of John Petrucci's Rock Discipline instructional video where he outlines exactly this technique on how to build up speed.

I love this idea! Just wanted to send a note of encouragement. Keep at it!

Are we assuming that "testing" is limited to only exercising the single-threaded behavior of a function? I'm curious how others approach effective testing of multi-threaded behavior.

Yes, parameterization was implied.

Sanitization of data is such a strange security practice to me. It feels like any sort of vulnerability sensitive to data sanitization just boils down to a failure to properly encode or escape data into a target language that is susceptible

I think cognitive load has a lot more to do with the paradigm that the code is written in than any particular type of author's contribution to the code. For instance, the object-oriented paradigm by design increases cognitive load by e

Not sure, don't have any of those. The response feels very natural from my own playing. Here's a little announcement video I put together a week ago for an earlier version: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xEy34cuOPaY

I've built a VST3 plug-in that simulates a Mesa Boogie Mark IIC+ preamp purely from the circuit. The approach doesn't seem popular for professional plug-ins likely because it wasn't viable for real time until modern CPU enhan

Wouldn't this make it somewhat more challenging for assemblers/compilers to emit branch instructions with target PC offsets? For instance, the offset of an instruction two instructions away would be calculated as `lfsr(lfsr(pc))`

The obvious solution to me is to implement streaming/buffered processing of the content while downloading it instead of downloading the entire content into memory to be processed in a single contiguous byte[]. Buffered IO would have th

I fixed a recent Y38 bug in some classic ASP code. The bug was nothing more than a simple `Date() + 5000` computation (adding 5000 days to the current date) as a sort of expiry date applied to something; I don't recall the exact detail

It feels a bit unfair to lay the blame for all of this on C. All other mainstream compilable languages compile to similar abstract machines in a similar fashion to C.

Just ran into a Y2038 bug in some classic ASP+VBScript code in production the other day. Someone long ago wrote `Date() + 5000` to set an expiry date far in the future (5000 days). As it turns out, 5000 days from now puts us past 1970-01-01

SMB3 is 3 Megabits in size, aka 384 KiB. You're likely thinking of the original Super Mario Bros which is just 40 KiB.

Can you elaborate? I've been coding since the 90s and have never heard the term _A table before.
