“So what does a game designer do? Are you an artist? Do you design characters and write the story? Or no, wait, you’re a programmer?” Game design is one of those nebulous terms to people outside the game industry that’s about as clear as the “astrophysicist” job title is to me. It’s also my job, so I find myself exp...

Optimisation-dependent IR decisions in Clang

I used to naively assume that Clang always handed off “basically” the same IR to the LLVM optimisation pipeline regardless of optimisation level. I was at least aware of the optnone attribute set on functions when compiling at -O0, but I’ve slowly started to notice there are more divergences than just that. Survey# ...

As the subject goes, I’m curious what photo library software do you use? I’m using Nextcloud to store the photos from my and my partner’s phone, usually photos of our kids. We don’t actually view then on Nextcloud (the interface is too clunky), so NC behaves more as a backup for our iPhone and Android phones. However, these phones have memory limits which we...

Are there languages with first class table support, similar to struct or map? | Lobsters

I’m wondering if there are any statically typed languages out there that natively support tables, like SQL does. Consider this pseudocode for defining a Car struct: type Car struct { manufacturer string model string year int } Now, I’m looking for a table type like this: type Cars table { row Car primary key [row.manufacturer, row.model, row.year] yearIndex index [row.year] } Then I could...

At first glance, especially from the top, the Radxa X4 is your typical Arm SBC: But you'll quickly notice the lack of an SoC—that's on the bottom. Looking more closely, what's a Raspberry Pi chip doing on top?! First, let's flip over the board to investigate. There's the SoC: definitely not Arm inside, this thing's ...

The other day I learned a new place where adding or removing noexcept can change the performance of your program: GNU libstdc++’s hash-based associative containers change the struct layout of their nodes depending on the noexceptness of your hash function. This is laid out fairly clearly in the docs; it’s simply biz...
