Exactly this. Linker is threading given blocks together with fixups for position-independent code - this can be called rule application. Assembler is pattern matching.

This explanation confused me too:

  Each individual iteration: around 4x slower (register spilling)
  Cache pressure: around 2-3x additional penalty (instructions do not fit in L1/L2 cache)
  Combined over a billion iterations: 158,000x total slowdown
If each iteration is X percent slower, then a billion iterations will also be X percent slower. I wonder what is actually going on.

There is a fork with that available.

For anyone that wants a physical version, SwissMicros makes a calculator based off of Free42: https://www.swissmicros.com/product/dm42

That website mentions that they use decimal floating point. Since free42 is licensed under gpl3, they have released the source.

https://github.com/swissmicros/free42/tree/master/inteldecim...

They use Intel's library for decimal floating point: https://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intel-decimal-floa...

It's still not the real HP-42S with its quirks, but it's nice to have decimal floating point operations.

According to Gödel, it's probable that there are true mathematical formulas that cannot be proven.

So from our point of view, we cannot know given a statement whether it can be proven or not.

So all true statements in pure mathematics that we know are a posteriori true, since before we had the experience of proving it, we could not know if it's a statement that could be proven or disproven.

natmaka, are you aware that those websites preach racism?

linked from 'about' page: https://www.counter-currents.com/2012/05/new-right-vs-old-ri... quote: "Second, because of the leading role of the organized Jewish community in engineering the destruction of European peoples, and because the United States is the citadel of Jewish power in the world today, the North American New Right must deal straightforwardly with the Jewish Question."

Holy shit.
