"Getting rid of huge switch statement that isn't optimized well" Can the switches be permuted to get speedup on average inputs? Perhaps a utility that takes as input a URI...

Perhaps a crude BSP metalanguage called thrillspec? thrillspec -lang=cpp -platform=posix my_model.thrill > my_model.hpp thrillspec -lang=rust -platform=aws my_model.thrill > my_model.rs This would emit headers where you have to fill in the...

Best to have a second repository? CI benchmarks the code on each git commit, appends benchmark with the git hash of the commit, timestamp, and identifier for the hardware. Also,...

I'm working on getting the GNU Coreutils scripts to test the Rust binaries. Before fuzzing I would like to formalize the parsers to remove shotgun parse bugs that might be...

This is choice. In addition to routine fuzzing, there are also scores of environment variables to fuzz if we support them all: https://github.com/uutils/coreutils/issues/1582

The blocking issue was a horribly broken ARM build chain that has been fixed in Ubuntu 22. I’ll try to build Alastair’s toolchain again this week.

I wrote/executed it on my aarch64 mac M1 with the latest docker and symcc. It built the sample C++ program and emitted about 8 traces, one of which found the...

Does SymPy use Borwein's factorial algorithm? Calculate the exponent of each prime up to $n$ of $n!$ then multiply them in one go. $O(p(n)log(n)log(p(n)))$ multiplies vs $O(n)$ naive. In large...

I'm getting a Conan python parse error at the end of the build :(. The build also barfed on default -j8 on my 16G RAM laptop under wsl2 when linking....
