You say "we need to protect minorities and women from the white male oppressors" is not an accurate representation of their viewpoint. Then you proceed to say that minorities and women are discriminated against, and we need to do

You do realize that is exactly why alt-righters believe there is bias against white people? "We need to protect minorities and women from the white male oppressors" is basically the slogan of the identity politics wing of the left

Then people will just make novelty websites to point out that 1/7 + 2/7 ≠ 3/7.

16 Psyche is far to big to move anywhere. 16 Psyche's mass is 2.27·10^19 kg and its orbital speed is 17.34 km/s. Earth's orbital speed is 29.78 km/s. So a perfect orbital transfer (not even possible) to get 16 Psyche int

The title is somewhat misleading. The suburbs are not dying; in fact they are growing [1][2][3][4] and this article makes no claim to the contrary. The article is saying that suburbs are becoming more like urban areas. I like the author&#x2

Though for the purposes of comparisons, -0 and +0 are the same in IEEE 754. So the expression "x >= 0.0f && x <= 1.0f" is true for x = -0.

SSE1 is single-precision only. SSE2 added double precision. So the bug will still appear for 'double' using just SSE1.

by kr7 10y ago
The solution is to compile with SSE2 on x86. (flags: -mfpmath=sse -msse -msse2) On x86-64, the compiler should default to SSE2. SSE2 is ~16 years old so compatibility shouldn't be an issue.

It works for 32-bit unsigned integers and double precision floats. For n < 19, "(double)n * (1.0 / 19.0)" evaluates to a double between 0.0 and 1.0, then it is truncated to 0 when it is implicitly converted to unsigned int

It does work, though not as well as using an integer multiply. The approximate latencies for Skylake are: div --> 26 cycles cvtsi2sd + mulsd + cvttsd2siq --> 6 + 4 + 6 = 16 cycles I did a quick (and imperfect) microbenchm

Is there a good-faith way to ask that question? I'm legitimately curious if KirinDave has evidence that r/t_d buys upvotes.

I'm not seeing that? In ARRAY_PUSH_BACK, it just inserts the element directly into the buffer, provided there is enough capacity. There is no separate allocation for an element. You don't need to redefine the struct for each eleme

kzrdude is referring to the allocation of the Array struct on the heap. It should be something like this instead: Array array_create(size_t size, size_t sizeof_data) { Array result; result.size = size; result.c

If GM loses $9,000 on a $30,000 sale, that puts production costs at $39,000. The battery costs $9,000, so the car without the battery costs $30,000 to make. The Sonic starts at $15,000, which seems to be the ICE equivalent of the Bolt. Are

Another limited duration trial (two years). What's the point? It's not going to measure the real effect. People will know it is going to run out and behave differently than if it was permanent.
