Anyone here with some assembly knowledge? I just need to do a bit of assembly in this linux kernel and then I can work in C again, but I think I'm destroying the stack.

\o/ factor of 4 improvement!

That's consistent across benchmarks, too ^.^

The N-Queens test shows a more modest improvement of about 50%

I should have written a proper Rscript for this originally rather than just using the repl ;.;

Today I learned that W7 made file sharing stupidly complicated.
22:02
<&ToxicFrog>
That implies that it wasn't stupidly complicated before.
22:02
<&ToxicFrog>
To this day I have yet to get two windows computers to share files with each other.
22:03
<@rms>
Heh
22:03
<@rms>
They made it so the older NT system for sharing only appears for folders if you approach them with the correct context
22:03
<@rms>
Otherwise you're forced into using this "homegroup" thing
22:04
<@rms>
Which I'm pretty sure doesn't support XP

There's going to be another round of minor edits concurrent with (or deferred until after) defence scheduling, and then the defence itself
22:34
<&ToxicFrog>
But at this point, that's a formality; the edit queue is empty

Obviously this means that after three more rewrites you will be over twice as fast
22:43
<@Azash>
:P
22:43
<&ToxicFrog>
This wasn't a rewrite, it was a configuration change in the benchmarking infrastructure
22:44
<@Azash>
Oh
22:44
<&ToxicFrog>
A rewrite could probably cut it by a lot more

A Valley Without Wind 2 seems more promising than the first one so far. Less repetitive monsterkilling, at least.

Just because it happens a lot doesn't mean it's a good idea, and you may have noticed that most games are rubbish~
