candy for breakfast posted:you get 10 free "sites" with azure hosting. oh neat free microsoft so what you're saying is microsoft will host my dinky asp.net site for free (with CPU usage over a certain amount charged at a reasonable rate per hour) with 5gb of outgoing traffic and give me a 2gb database for 8 cents a day and I can do it all from visual studio??? that's cheaper than feeding a third world childe!

suffix posted:i like ſ because it reads like all the learned people of old had a bad lisp Mark but this flea, and mark in this, How little that which thou deniest me is; It sucked me first, and now sucks thee, And in this flea our two bloods mingled be; Thou know’st that this cannot be said A sin, nor shame, nor loss of maidenhead, Yet this enjoys before it woo, And pampered swells with one blood made of two, And this, alas, is more than we would do. Oh stay, three lives in one flea spare, Where we almost, nay more than married are. This flea is you and I, and this Our mariage bed, and marriage temple is; Though parents grudge, and you, w'are met, And cloistered in these living walls of jet. Though use make you apt to kill me, Let not to that, self-murder added be, And sacrilege, three sins in killing three. Cruel and sudden, hast thou since Purpled thy nail, in blood of innocence? Wherein could this flea guilty be, Except in that drop which it sucked from thee? Yet thou triumph’st, and say'st that thou Find’st not thy self, nor me the weaker now; ’Tis true; then learn how false, fears be: Just so much honor, when thou yield’st to me, Will waste, as this flea’s death took life from thee.

today on slashdot: http://riscv.org/download.html#tab_isaspec an open-source isa that's actually looking like it will ship useful silicon sometime soon the arch itself looks really elegant too (there's 128-bit variant though, what? even as a wanking exercise it seems a bit pointless, like, this isn't 4x32-bit SIMD or whatever, the architecture variant in question describes an arch that has 128-bit words and GPRs). still, i imagine if they ship then ARM's lawyers will hold them down while Intel's lawyers beat the poo poo out of them. e: that jump-immediate instruction layout Sapozhnik fucked around with this message at 14:24 on Aug 16, 2014 |

it's not the end of the world to index arrays from 1. there are a lot of far worse things a p-lang could do. overall, it's not really that much effort to deal with. what it is is that it's objectively and irrefutably the wrong choice in every way. it's not a trade-off. there is no advantage. why would I want to use a language designed by someone who couldn't even get this right. even python gets this right.

for the record, integer division rounding towards zero rather than negative infinity is similarly wrong and disgusting this is a trade-off, though, since at least you can do the wrong way faster as that's how the hardware works (which is itself a great shame) seiken fucked around with this message at 19:01 on Aug 16, 2014 |

Shinku ABOOKEN posted:i am not a math guy so please explain why you think -3/2 == -1 == -(3/2) is wrong and why is -3/2 == -2 != -(3/2) is better because round-towards-zero does not satisfy the euclidean division theorem. but for a practical argument consider that for non-negative integers, the division operation f(x) = x/n is exactly the operation of partitioning the integer line into equally-sized buckets (of size n) and telling you which bucket x falls in. (similarly, f(x) = x%n tells you the offset of x within that bucket) if you extend / and % to the negative integers under round-to-zero, this is no longer the case. if you extend under round-to-negative-infinity, it holds. the first example you point out seems nice and intuitive, but isn't actually terribly useful in practice. sensible integer-line-partitioning is a far more fundamental and useful discrete operation; many basic algorithms extend in useful ways to negative numbers with round-to-negative-infinity but break entirely with round-to-zero (e.g. defining a grid on an integer plane). if you want numbers to behave like numbers you should probably be using floating-point anyway edit: see also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo_operation (the top graph is what most languages use, the bottom graph is obviously the best) seiken fucked around with this message at 19:58 on Aug 16, 2014 |
