It's amazing to me that #compilers don't (or can't) #optimize for #duplicate #strings https://lemire.me/blog/2022/09/23/optimi.. There is some interesting work in this space on #superstrings that do #compress . There's an interesting #comment here about how this might be turned on in #gcc using #lld https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=329..
Interesting, #gcc and generally #cfamily #programming can be quite messy! https://people.eecs.berkeley.edu/~necula..
Really excited to work on this #database #concept when I get a spare minute: https://coffeespace.org.uk/projects/data.. Lots of nice ideas that could really open up the door to some cool #projects ! Worth checking out the #gcc 128 bit #support for #hashes too: https://stackoverflow.com/a/54815033/284.. In #theory there will soon be enough to #replace #deadsocial with a #memory #bound #binary version.
Ouch, #gcc 's #fastmath could be considered quite #dangerous to have switched on during #compile time, especially if you don't understand the consequences of the #flag https://simonbyrne.github.io/notes/fastm..
Nice #discussion about the #implementation of #spinlocks in #gcc and #linux https://blog.regehr.org/archives/2173 I would suggest that the 32 #bit #arm #limit of 65k #cores might *actually* come to bite somebody pretty soon. I could see a stripped down version of Linux running on a GPU in the near future for example.
Hehe, looks like the #llvm #gcc #compiler gets a little carried away in the #optimization process: https://twitter.com/jckarter/status/1428.. The #collatz #conjecture is an interesting problem for sure! I wrote a "better" #implementation quite some years ago: https://github.com/danielbarry/callatz-c..
