Yes. https://github.com/Co-dfns/Co-dfns can target GPU.

Modern APL incarnations (kdb, dyalog apl) are quite damn parallel.

<details> are quite handy for github comments. (Yes, they work!)

4. On GNU/Linux you can add your own %-conversions (e. g. %Y) with register_printf_function.

Yes. NHS.uk, Bet365, TI Tokyo. Bet365 bought all the assets (and open sourced them).

Last release was several months ago.

Welcome to the world of functional programming!

This is how much memory the garbage collector has freed during the computation. It does not mean REPL actually used that much at any given moment.

> I imagine bc is using some sort of power series

There is also a cool Haskell package, numbers, that has all arithmetics defined via power series:

  $ cabal v2-repl -b numbers
    ⡇
  λ> import Data.Number.CReal

  λ> cos pi + 1 :: CReal
  0.0

  λ> :set +s
  λ> showCReal 10000 pi

They are buying (a lot of) data and a list of customers. They don’t care about the app code.

The problem:

Let S be a finite set of at least two points in the plane. Assume that no three points of S are collinear. By a windmill we mean a process as follows. Start with a line l going through a point P ∈ S. Rotate l clockwise around the pivot P until the line contains another point Q of S. The point Q now takes over as the new pivot. This process continues indefinitely, with the pivot always being a point from S.

Show that for a suitable P ∈ S and a suitable starting line l containing P, the resulting windmill will visit each point of S as a pivot infinitely often.

What this has to do with the country?!

I believe the author is exaggerating it a little bit. Local time machine snapshots are not arcane secret knowledge (man 8 tmutil).

Edit: what are downvotes for? That is the standard way to decipher C++ mangling, using built-in (binutils) tools.

Not after 2-4 cores. And R13A is 2009, that was 10 years ago. (Java 8 is 2014.)

Today’s Erlang (R22) MP support is practically the best, bar none.

Considering that it’s state of the art, you must have been doing it terribly wrong.

That confirms it.

Unfortunately this is not a myth. rDNS/DKIM/SPF/not in any greylists, but mail from you goes to Junk folder on GMail®, experienced that myself.

BPF, BSD — notice the first letter is the same ;-)

Also, many systems (some BSDs, SmartOS, macOS, Windows10, …) have an in-kernel VM for running dtrace bytecode.

It is.

I’m somehow not sure Perl6 has anything to do with that.

But…for what exactly? It’s already stable enough for use.

(2008–2010).

No. That is just test data for “cryptographic strength testing”.

> xargs is usually installed by default

xargs is part of POSIX, so it should be everywhere.

(-P/-n are not, but both GNU and BSD versions do support it.)

Interestingly it’s “the 13th Century” there (and in the url).

Probably atlasobscura silently changed(/fixed?) it: https://web.archive.org/web/20160830171522/https://www.atlas... vs https://web.archive.org/web/20160901120029/https://www.atlas...

It is

  exiftool -IPTC:SpecialInstructions

(it will be a string starting with FBMD.)

And while it’s obviously (can be used for) for tracking, it’s just a exif tag, “Special instructions” is a text for humans, not machine instructions.

So s/Structural abnormality IPTC special instruction/a standard exif tag/ for less click-bait.
