When text is (clearly) non native English I think most native readers don’t even register grammar errors.

To be honest most native readers wouldn’t register grammar errors full stop.

I guess I have more awe of people who speak a foreign language at all compared to piping it through some agent malarkey.

As the other posters have shown it’s not that hard.

Most graphics specs will explicitly say how tie break rules work.

The key is to work in fixed point (16.8 or even 16.4 if you’re feeling spicy). It’s not “trivial” but in general you write it and it’s done. It’s not something you have to go back to over and over for weird bugs.

Wide lines are a more fun case…

Hung by a thread 6 months ago

If you’re working in robotics and don’t have fully deterministic event based replay you need to find a new middleware.

Dynamic is still nice when you’re dealing with unknown data imo. More hygienic to read than dictionary access through string keys for example.

I use it when deserializing unknown message types.

You explain well so what I never understood is how the Jacobians aren't the first derivatives themselves?

Also if you have happen to have any suggestions for linear algebra for someone who uses it without really understanding it (I can write a measurement function for an EKF from scratch OK, but I don't really understand why the maths does what it does) I would really appreciate it.

LLVM: The bad parts 6 months ago

You can track debug symbol through c. It’s just one of many layers debug info gets tracked through.

Parsing Advances 7 months ago

Are you?

The majority of production compilers use hand rolled parsers, ostensibly for better error reporting and panic synch.

Write combined on cpu will batch a few bytes here and there but you’ll never hit full 4k transactions without dma. I brought up a few new gpus on pcie cards and spent many moons staring at interposer dumps.

It’s ok for small things but even once you get into the command buffer range it’s slow slow slow without dma.

Why we need SIMD 10 months ago

They are sim-t. It’s slightly different. I made them for a living for quite some time.
