Queer leftie anticapitalist sort currently in the netherlands; computers fear it.

I tend to infodump about the stuff I'm working on, which at the minute is mostly a database i'm building.

I really like a language you've probably never heard of called idris that's quite different from most. I'm currently trying to teach it to people and use it to learn type and category theory. I also write a lot of rust

This Noctua Knockoff from AliExpress is Just as Bad as Expected

Yeah but it has the horrible colour scheme on the fans, so that's good?

reminded of that time i interrupted two caribbean-sounding girls on the tube and one was like "girl you better shut up now because i's got a bigger mouth than you"

this is to polyfill PEXT on aarch64 without SVE2 BITPERM, itself an optional addon to SVE2 (again optional!)

RISCV has some of this mess too. so BEXT/BDEP are in Zbe, which didn't make ratification yet. The polynomial bits that i'd need to polyfill like on neon are in Zbc (again unratified).

I do not like computers.

ahahahaha*cry* remember that ARM NEON has an equivalent of AMD64 CLMUL? well it's an optional addon, because of course it is 😬

also interesting is this and the bits just after it https://github.com/riscv-non-isa/riscv-c-api-doc/blob/main/src/c-api.adoc#__attribute__target_clonestarget-clones-attr-string-

this seems like it could be used to build multiple optimised versions of a function and let the linker pick the right one?

_riscv_misaligned{fast,slow,avoid}

These can be used in common library code to compile time segregate code which relies on scalar misaligned access being fast or not. A typical compiler could (but not necessarily) map fast variant to -mno-strict-align and avoid to -mstrict-align, if specified. Perhaps obvious, but these are mutually exclusive, so only one is defined at a time for a compilation unit.

iiiiiiiinteresting

lol, just heard 'carburettor' shortened to 'carby', but it's in a translation and i assume they just made that up to give a feel for the original wording

I don't think that we can allow politicians to use pride as a photo opportunity when in practice they are attacking the rights of LGBT people

First Pride parade since 'politician ban' takes place
