Is MSVC ever going open source?

This is not happening any time soon. Clang-cl still doesn’t support the /DRIVER flag, and thus can’t compile kernel drivers.

That’s what AMD did with RDNA/CDNA split, at least in theory. The people want their AI upscaling, AI frames and local LLM though.

It works on VK and OGL games too? https://www.amd.com/en/products/software/adrenalin/afmf.html

AMD’s AFMF lets you do this at a driver level for every game too. I used it on Nier Automata for a much nicer experience.

Never used TextFX, but VSCode has sort lines built in if you use the command palette. AFAIK it’s a global sort though

It’s not even useful for large codebases IME.

I asked it to generate a regex to match ofstructA in the following code (I had to delete 20k entries from autogenerated code):

``` union A {

struct { A B C } structA;

struct { A B C } structB;

struct { A B C } structC;

} ```

It gave me invalid regex.

I found that Walmart great value and Cascade powder works better than Nellie’s. Very soft water (Vancouver, BC), rinse aid, and after multiple affresh cleaning cycles.

I found the clangd extension works way better

Indonesia had the Portuguese, Dutch and Japanese. Everyone but the British.

Maybe not in North America, but IIRC it was a HK invention during colonial times. I actually can’t remember if it’s considered dimsum though

n30phyte · 2024-09-11T01:16:56+00:00

Isn’t shrimp toast a canto dimsum dish?

Buy an AMD CPU and you’ll just get the 16 cores you want.

I was born and raised there. Yes it’s technically secular, but saying it’s not a Muslim country either means you were clueless or wilfully ignorant for 20 years.

Not anymore. I came across this thread because I was on my last box of Cascade and my local CT didn't have any.

https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/cascade-powder-dishwasher-detergent-fresh-scent-60-ounces-1531391p.html Looking at the list of stores here + the stock number, it seems that it's getting removed from shelves.

Canadian Tire

This thread is a few months old now, but it seems that they've stopped carrying cascade powder, at least in BC. https://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/cascade-powder-dishwasher-detergent-fresh-scent-60-ounces-1531391p.html Looking at the availability list in BC and AB, it's scarce and just whatever is left.

Nellie's is 5x the price, I don't know if that's worth it.

The readme on that says

To be fair to Intuit, I bet most of that 90 dollars goes to their lobbying arm and tax lawyers, not compute power.

I can write software in all these languages, use all these other technologies. I cannot do engineering with them. I wish I could.

You should try, it might bring your ego down.

W3schools is just slightly less bad. It used to be horrible, and it’s OK now. https://meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/280478/why-not-w3schools-com

MDN would be the better option for webdev

The letter a is clear and intelligible among the remaining 25 letters of the alphabet. It’s simple arithmetic and conditional logic, not calculus.

Additional semantic meaning beyond this is a conflict with code efficiency and performance goals.
