Stackless Traversal (2018)

news.ycombinator.com Marshall Lochbaum 2025-09-17 08:28:51

Enlist (∊) is twice as fast in Dyalog 16.0 as it was in Dyalog 15.0. Pretty much across the board: ∊⍳100 is not going to be any faster, but whenever the argument is a nested array and the simple arrays it contains are reasonably small, there are huge performance improvements. How did we achieve the huge speedup? Constraints The usual way for a C programmer to write the traversal used in Enlist would be a simple recursive function: If the current array is simple, handle it, and if it is nested,

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-09-22 22:26:00

One of the federal government’s most ambitious broadband targets may soon be abandoned. On August 7, the FCC will vote on a proposal to drop its goal of gig speeds for every American. In March last year, the Democratic-led group voted to raise the definition of minimum broadband speeds from 25Mbps download and 3Mbps upload speed to 100/20Mbps. It also set a more ambitious long-term goal of increasing the benchmark to 1,000Mbps download and 500Mbps upload speed. Trump’s pick for FCC chair, Bren

FCC to eliminate gigabit speed goal and scrap analysis of broadband prices

The Federal Communications Commission is ditching Biden-era standards for measuring progress toward the goal of universal broadband deployment. The changes will make it easier for the FCC to give the broadband industry a passing grade in an annual progress report. FCC Chairman Brendan Carr's proposal would give the industry a thumbs-up even if it falls short of 100 percent deployment, eliminate a long-term goal of gigabit broadband speeds, and abandon a new effort to track the affordability of

Nothing’s Headphone 1 Copied the AirPods Max’s Dumbest Accessory, and Now I Actually Need One

Apple’s AirPods Max are iconic for lots of reasons. Firstly, it’s Apple, so they have just a teensy bit of name-brand recognition. Secondly, there’s the sound—Apple’s over-ear headphones might look a little boring, but they sound consistently great. Good enough to actually make a $550 price tag work. There’s also a third iconic aspect, though this one may be notable for the wrong reasons. If you guessed the “iBra” carrying case, congratulations, you win a free ticket to tech nerd jail. As iconi

Why GM’s CEO is still betting on electric vehicles (and racing)

GM was the first major US automaker to make the promise to go all-electric by 2035, just four years ago. Those promises have since turned into rough estimates under the second Donald Trump presidency, with the company softening language about its electrification goals. But GM is riding high on EV sales, and as CEO Mary Barra puts it, EVs are still the future — just on a delayed (and very flexible) timeline. “We still believe in an all-electric future,” Barra told The Verge in an exclusive inter
