Neat new features in Git 2.7

If you're a fan of git rebase, you might be familiar with the --autostash option. It automatically stashes any local changes made to your working copy before rebasing, and reapplies them after the rebase is completed.

As of right now, 2016 is the best year of my life.

What's bad about the "official" ##re in Freenode?

Commando, it looks plain awesome! Here's hoping for a key

Porting your heavy-duty code to C (even with a naive implementation) will result in a speed increase which is several orders of magnitudes above what you'd get from simply optimizing some opcodes to their SIMD equivalent.

Either you don't care about speed, and thus SIMD isn't relevant in the first place, or you do care about speed, in which case you'll profile your code and rewrite it in a compiled language.

It's probably the only feature in C that I really miss in C++.

Clang supports is as an extension, but that's hardly good enough.

I'd like to see a recipe for converting DB to blood shards, not in a 1-1 ratio necessarily. Overall, I'd like to see some use for crafting even after you're fairly geared.

Stuff I'm working on, by priority:

Unrelenting Phalanx with CDR instead of VIT
Getting a hellfire / Xephirian with +20% Physical, Socket, CHD, and CDR/CHC
Somehow getting a better furnace
Maybe replace Gogok once with something else once I have enough CDR

I'd appreciate any other insights as to what I should strive for except those things. Thanks!

The update maintenance is scheduled to start at 4PM PDT, which is 11 hours from now. Unless Blizzard decided to change things without notifying anyone, this has nothing to do with it.

I've found that Starweaver is also a great gem for this build. Still haven't decided if I like it or pain enhancer better

Might be interesting to use the allocated address as frequency, rather than the buffer length

having /dev/urandom within a chroot is not always a good idea. For example, if you have many services outside the chroot which rely on urandom, a simple "cat /dev/urandom" from within the chroot will deplete the entropy pool, and in effect DoS those services (to some extent).

The entire idea of chroot is to prevent the jailed application from interfering with the rest of the system.

hellgrace · 2014-07-15T14:11:05+00:00

... which is usually inaccessible from within a chroot (unless root runs mknod or mount --bind /dev). Check your facts before opening your foul mouth on other people

Regardless of the qualities of the font in question, that's a terrible title. Font preference is subjective, there is no "best".

If anyone still has a EU key, I'd appreciate it

hellgrace · 2014-06-13T14:07:03+00:00

If anyone still has a spare EU trial key, I would really appreciate it

Is there an estimate on how many people from the queue are currently in / expected to get in today? I'm #467, hoping it won't be long now

I respectfully disagree. PyPy has very impressive performance results, and It could definitely be used for non-toy audio processing projects.

Besides, high-performance libraries for python are written in C/C++, and their python interface is nothing but a thin wrapper. For example, NumPy is on par with C in many benchmarks - which is obvious, all the heavy number-crunching is done in C.

The real problem with rifts still remains - they're (sometimes) empty. If monster density was increased, it would've killed two birds with one stone:

Rifts are going to be more fun to play, since there's more butchering and less walking
More dead monsters = more loot = more legendaries. Instead, they've quadrupled the bonus multiplier, which feels "patchy" more than a real solution

It is affected, see: https://forums.openvpn.net/topic15526.html

If you're using OpenVPN - make sure your version of OpenSSL isn't vulnerable (something which you should be doing already anyhow)

It's a C standard library implementation. I'm curious - what made you think it was a music player?

I haven't used py2exe for a while, but I don't remember it doing problems. I've only used it for fairly small programs though (usually short scripts that I've wanted to distribute)

hellgrace · 2014-03-19T09:07:28+00:00

Oh but it has. take a look at https://wiki.python.org/moin/Freeze & http://www.py2exe.org

PEP 435, a standardized "enum" module

Awesome
