There is plenty of demand for so called "secure code", where such coder arrogance will not be tolerated. Trust me on that, I know it.

If your code may be compiled, to use the Intel x87 numerical coprocessor, an important issue is the so called "excess precision": Different values on chip can collapse after being rounded and stored to their memory locations, invalidating previous comparisons. Spilling can happen unexpectedly. Note that Intel calls the x87 "legacy"

In order to demonstrate something exceptional, you have to establish a baseline. This baseline is called the "null hypothesis" in classical testing.

Statistical clueless amateurs found something they did not like, but of course were unable to convert their suspicions into something sound. They do not even think about it. Nevertheless a big sensation was anounced. I am tired of this.

Just HI slop. Ask any decent model, it can explain what's wrong this this description.

They must love dogs really deeply to go to such length to rediscover them.

>However when “few enough” pieces remain on the board (in the endgame), the number of possible game states is small enough that it’s possible to brute force solve the game from each state by enumerating all possible moves and resulting states so as to find the absolute optimal move for any given board position

You can basically never do that, even in the endgame, since you get always exponential blow up! Furthermore with less pieces on the board, they hamper each others movement less, therefore the branching factor really goes down only slightly. If you want to compute all mate-in-n positions, you discover the theoretical values in tiers, by unmoving each tier twice: If you know all mate-in-0,...,mate-in-n positions, unmove the mate-in-n set for the defender and filter out results, where he can avoid moving into the union of the known tiers. Then unmove for the attacker, to find mate-in-(n+1). Repeat until convergence. Repeat the whole process for the left over positions, to find more theoretical values.

They are giving their stuff away for free, hence they can do whatever they want. It goes without saying, that spiritual teachings are not there to create quarrel and division.

Beautiful cheat sheet for the modal editor helix

It is terrible to lose a relative in young age. But at least 80% percent of all heart diseases are known to be fully avoidable. The risk factors are known for ages and as matter of fact every adult is fully responsible to care for his own health. The right thing to do, is to watch out for a healthy diet.

>... I sadly found the explanation of coroutines utterly incomprehensible. Same for almost every other explanation I found on the web.

Nice to see a mirror of my experience.

For the records: I'm taking it very seriously and had this book in mind: Elizondo, L. (2024). Imminent: Inside the Pentagon's hunt for UFOs. William Morrow. The tone is very dark though.
