What do you mean? With dotnet fsi? I just tried it and it reads UTF8 just fine, at least in windows terminal.

The initial state is A, the tape is full of 0 (on both sides).

Infinite tape of zeros.

Based on my quick and dirty benchmarking, it's similar in terms of performance. The vector comparison is consistent, the unpacking comparison is about 1.5x faster if it can exit early, but 4x slower otherwise. Here are the results: https://pastebin.com/QL4sNzhj (the code is straight from the article, the benchmarking done with google benchmark).

Fun fact: the French word engin still retains its original meaning of contrivance, contraption. But we still translate "search engine," which refers to this archaic English meaning, as moteur de recherche ("search motor").

It's funny how little time it takes to go from "cultural" to "ethnic". Say what you think instead of using whistles: you think that Denmark conforms to your racially focused worldview, that it's "pure", or whatever. Am I correct?
Funnily enough, Denmark is a few places below France in "ethnic fractionalization", yet somehow, racists worldwide insist that France has become a shithole because of immigration.

What do you mean by "for reference"? That URL is feature prominently in the linked blog post.

I program MCUs as a hobby. I wish I could use something better than C. Even C++ with RAII would be better. But somehow, even C++ support is spotty, with unsupported features, broken debugging, etc. for seemingly no reason. And all device-specific libraries are written in C, so I'd have to write C++ wrappers for every little thing. Send help...

It's not much of a "runtime", though. How is it better than a plain executable?

I guess I don't understand the point. Could someone summarize why I would use this rather than writing my utilities in something that doesn't compile to a quirky, limited programming language?

As usual, the US plays lone wolf and screws its "allies" over. We have a saying in France: promises only bind those who believe them. I'll belive the US is actually intent on curbing global tax evasion when I see it.

Uh... I have a PhD, I'm a tenured professor, and I even supervise a couple of PhD students. How about you? Given your snarky tone, it sounds like you'd have mentioned something like this. Not sure why you'd try to flex when you don't know much about me ;)
With my font, the letter l looked like a vertical bar |. Hence why this looked like symbol soup. But okay, let's say it's about projective spaces. Then surely, you realize that the equal sign still denotes equality. The point [1:2] is literally equal to [2:4] in P^2, not "proportional". Perhaps you need a refresher: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equivalence_class#quotient_set

... What? That's just symbol soup. What are you trying to write? Do it in latex if it helps.

> "Initiating legislation" for example, is just another way to say "decide what the law is".
It's not.
> It can only acquiesce to or slow down the Commission's decisions.
That's not all it can do.
