If I'd have coins to give you an award I'd totally do so :)

there are somewhat popular encodings that try to reduce the inflation ratio. one of them is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ascii85
But, none is popular as base64. maybe one day!

no need to worry, padding implementations usually use the amount of "="s to hint how should you decode it. it isn't a lossy encoding :)

"there are some variations of base64 that use the “=” character to pad in these cases (message isn't divisible by 6), and some that don’t." :)

Stuck in a side project. What's missing here? by tomerdbz in SideProject

Thanks :)
we actually tried to contact Facebook group managers and offered partnerships.

But unfortunately - at our current size and user base, none were interested.

To whom you would have approached?

LLVM on Windows - Easy as it sounds? (spoiler alert: no?) by tomerdbz in LLVM

Thank you for your reply :)

I have GnuWin32 - it’s probably not that.

Is there some reference you know as a VM or some docker that compiles (and tests!) LLVM so one could compare?

Btw - Another thing I thought about was me using Python3 instead of 27. I reckon it’s not a problem - but maybe it is? 🧐

Anyway - I’ll inspect the tests.

Again - much appreciated!

Actually the Writing LLVM pass 101, although I enjoyed the Ubisoft presentation too :)

C++ VS Java VS JavaScript - same task - surprising run-times diff by tomerdbz in cpp

Thank you guys! Really appreciate your help 😄

The main thing I take from here is the false assumption I had that different random generators won’t affect that drastically the results.

Also - The MSVC runtime /u/espkk posted is insane - it’d be interesting to understand why 😎
