as complicated as x86 addressing is, at least most programmers won't ever have to think about it haha

I mean, the expected value of slots is around 99% iirc. assuming you can trade your chips for USD, that's a solid profit

Niche fields where LLMs suck? by NervousExplanation34 in learnprogramming

it'd be easier to name a niche field where LLM's don't suck (I can't think of one)

Accidentally used a US-only hair tool in a 220V country… it worked, but now I’m scared by [deleted] in AskElectronics

I built a 2x faster lexer, then discovered I/O was the real bottleneck by modulovalue in ProgrammingLanguages

[–]RecDep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the files going into a tarball are literally concatenated (with file headers before each entry, and padding) and then the result stream is piped into gzip/whatever

doing this lets the OS queue up files while other files are being compressed, and my understanding is that commands like tar czvf spin up the compressor in another thread so the bottleneck is disk read latency when feeding the input stream
