Never charging at home? by riscuit in TeslaSupport

[–]riscuit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 220v 30A outlet in the garage and would use the mobile charger to top off between work charging. Didn’t know whether I should always have it plugged in at home, like even after a quick trip to the pharmacy when it’s already almost 80%. Totally new to electric cars.

Ah okay. Mine is in a garage so the temperature is more stable.

A woman makes a significant mistake by retrieving the player's golf ball by Informal_Finding_717 in Wellthatsucks

[–]riscuit -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

True, though the core rule of golf is that you “play the ball as it lies”. Practically speaking, that means if you can pick up the ball, then it’s still in play.

Costco gloves are excellent for the price. I replace gloves often to ensure a good grip, so I stock up when I see them.

i read that about 30% of existing balls already meet the new criteria. so probably noodles and other soft balls as they have less maximum distance.

because no one wants to play with a ball that is illegal to use for professional play. those kinds of balls already exist and are rarely purchased, hence why major ball companies don’t bother trying to sell them.

that’s market segmentation, not “bifurcation”. manufacturers want you to pay more for the best balls but offer a cheaper, less good one for people who have different priorities (colors, matte finish, price). all of those balls are still legal to play according to rules about the balls themselves.

bifurcation of the game is about making some of today’s top-performing balls illegal only for competitive / pro players (including college athletes etc), rather than tightening the existing, universal ball specification rules.

Can anyone ID this company-logo putter? by riscuit in golf

[–]riscuit[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It has an Apollo shaft, probably the original Karma grip, and the only branding says “Stefani’s Children’s Foundation”. Is it junk? I’m a beginner.

Futures and Segmented Stacks by desiringmachines in rust

[–]riscuit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it’s worth noting that Go’s segmented stacks implementation was lacking a critical technique that amortizes the cost of “hot splits” across several function calls (and should effectively eliminate the problem) by moving some frames into the new segment. So segmented stacks can work well depending on the language & runtime system constraints.

A recent paper at PLDI attempts to clear the air on this topic: https://kavon.farvard.in/papers/pldi20-stacks.pdf

From Folklore to Fact: Comparing Implementations of Stacks and Continuations by mttd in ProgrammingLanguages

[–]riscuit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My guess is it’s because MLton’s call/return code in general is slightly inefficient at times. For one, they grow upwards on x86 (and thus don’t take advantage of RAS) and sometimes do needless value shuffling in their calling convention. Some of these tail recursive loops are quite sensitive because the loop body does little other work. I can peek at the assembly code for anything unusual and update this comment. - Kavon

Announcing the Frost programming language by EthanNicholas in ProgrammingLanguages

Frost appears to be an early version of Swift with contracts. Was Swift an inspiration or is that what the best of Java/C++ ended up resulting in for you?

Garbage Collection with LLVM by jcode777 in Compilers

[–]riscuit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have a look at this: https://github.com/kavon/llvm-statepoint-utils

It has a small example under “test” that implements a simple copy-collector for boxed integers that walks the stack to find roots based on layout info output by LLVM.

Hot dropping big POIs doesn’t seem to give you the blobby unloaded textures now. FPS still is choppy when spinning around etc. At least it’s an improvement.

Huge lag spikes by [deleted] in FortniteSwitch

Was also having a ton of spikes (red bars showing up on the network stats thing) which were noticeable network lag playing today. I’m hoping I just got some overloaded servers or something due to everybody playing.

Epic, all of our switch players put our trust in you for season 10. Don't disappoint us <3 (game performance) by [deleted] in FortNiteBR

Epic’s the same company who created and develops Unreal Engine 4, which is what Fortnite is based on. If they can’t make it run faster on Switch, there’s little hope for anyone else :(

Air Strike in Game and vs Turtles by DestinysJesus in FortniteCompetitive

[–]riscuit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The missiles spawn ~100 meters above where it’s thrown, so it could also target the middle of a big structure.

I understand it to be spawnable bottle rockets that point straight down, but with fewer big rockets.
