Since the problem is simple yet illustrative, I am using it as a showcase on how to debug performance issues using llvm-mca.

Stephen Hawking, a British physicist and arguably the most famous man suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), communicated with the world using a sensor installed in his glasses. That sensor used tiny movements of a single muscle in his cheek to select characters on a screen. Once he typed a full sentence at a rate of roughly one word per minute, the text was synthesized into speech by a DECtalk TC01 synthesizer, which gave him his iconic, robotic voice.

‘We are the media now’: why Tesla’s robotaxis were dominated by Elon Musk superfans

The robotaxi launch in Austin, Texas, last week wasn’t one of them. Coverage of the rollout was dominated by a close-knit cohort of Tesla influencers and Elon Musk superfans, many of whom are openly supportive of the CEO’s vision.

When new engineers join Roblox, their first solutions often include, “If we could just tell our creators to tweak this config or slow down their events…”.
