@DlNGOOOOOO @NikitaCatSpeaks They don't, they get "funny" about the younger lot doing that while also complaining/demanding that they can't have the same things they had.

If the younger lot want to make a QOL tradeoff that is fine they just shouldn't expect it not to have costs.

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@OMeriluoto @Alchemist8565 You can still drop another 4 if you get creative with placement of the "rear stacks" and then take some more out the "side"

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@Alchemist8565 The easy answer is 51, ideally with assumptions stated alongside the answer.

The better answer is that there is a lower bound of 31 and an upper bound of 51.

@lostbutlucky @kerckhove_ts I'd point you at guix and then laugh at you repeatedly.

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@kerckhove_ts Well some of them are completely 100% deterministic as long as you ensure a few things.
In the C++ world at least.

See e.g. guix or gitian.
And if you don't use something like that then they're still mostly deterministic for most of the stuff that matters.

@onehappyfellow How much is a 5 LOC change that results in 2.5x speedup on a system where performance matters worth? How long would be acceptable for one dev to have spent working to find and make this change?

Measuring things in LOC alone is for people who aren't serious.

@geordinhl And everything that goes wrong for the ANC is the "third force"; You're taking yet another page from their book, just two sides of the same socialist coin.

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@0x2A2A2A2A @ujjwalscript These issues are just the tip of the iceberg anyway, fixing the full sloppy mess (it can't even do performance optimization) would take longer than just getting competent experts to start over.

@chrisgpt The original C compiler was written in a year, by one guy, part time, with a very large portion of that one year spent on writing an operating system instead.

Your post is a load of absolute nonsense drivel, AI slop has destroyed your brain.

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@raddevus @ChShersh Depending on data size, yes.

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@BrianCu10700427 @RottiesandPits @HOUSEPORN___ Could attach them in segments

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@DevPoolX @effectfully They're talking about how to efficiently track variable names within a compiler/interpreter implementation not how to pick variable names.

Sit down before you hurt yourself.

@MOSSoftware @Adriksh Not a big deal in this specific trivial case where its just primes, but quite relevant in other real world examples of legacy programs etc.

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@MOSSoftware @Adriksh Yes similar, but you get to still have readable code where its clear what us going on.

Instead of an obscure LUT populated with mystery values that you aren't even sure where they come from.

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@yooyo3d @Adriksh Not true, this sort of thing can actually be quite important in HPC

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@torychisai @rmcentush That you should urgently seek medical attention

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@LycaMobileForUK @LycamobileUK Have done so and have received zero response.

[Malcolm @malcolm7t9d]

@LycaMobileForUK @lycamobileuk

Its been 3 months since I was in the UK and you are still charging me a monthly fee that I never agreed too when I bought a once off bundle.

Its impossible to reach any of your support to get this rectified.
What kind of a scam operation are you?

Cape Republic belongs in the Free World — not in Pretoria’s hostile failed state.@LetsFreeTheCape
@VoteReferendum
It is time for #ExSouthAfrica
South Africa has lost its way.
Pretoria stands with Putin against Ukraine, attacks Israel, rejects Kosovo, and aligns with BRICS autocrats.
That is a hostile choice — against democracy & against the West.
At home:
corruption, state collapse, Eskom failure, crime, brain-drain, ports & logistics chaos.
ANC destroyed the promise of 1994.
The Western Cape is different — good governance, tourism, tech, innovation, open economy.
Cape Town is a global city held hostage by Pretoria.
Time to debate Cape Republic independence — peacefully & democratically.
➡️ A Free-World Cape Republic
Under the Fehlinger Doctrine:
Align w/ NATO, EU, OECD
Recognize Ukraine & Kosovo
Support Israel’s right to peace
Reject Russian aggression
➡️ Fehlinger Economics
Flat tax 10–15%
Euro-peg for stability
EU/US/UK FTAs
Property rights guaranteed
Ports, rail, energy modernization via Global Gateway
Cape → Africa’s Singapore
This is NOT ethnic nationalism — it’s democratic self-determination.
All citizens equal.
Referendum.
Peaceful process.
Pretoria chose BRICS.
Cape must choose the Free World.
The path is clear: Independence → Growth → Western integration.
Let the Cape choose freedom.
🇺🇦🇽🇰🇮🇱

@alanwinde Very few flights compared to most other international airports; and more importantly very little connecting or quick turnaround flights, which is usually where the delays come in.

So while a good achievement, probably not quite as big of a thing as you're making it seem.
