Two commissioners of the Federal Communications Commission are resigning at the end of this week. For at least a little while, the FCC will have just two members: Chairman Brendan Carr, a Republican chosen by Trump to lead the agency, and Anna Gomez, a Democratic commissioner. Democrat Geoffrey Starks announced in March that he would leave in the near future, and today he said that Friday will be his final day. Starks' departure could have given Carr a 2-1 Republican majority, but it turns out

One of my more frequent rants, both online and in person, is the danger posed by the "fast-math" compiler flag. While these rants may elicit resigned acknowledgment from those who already understand the dangers involved, they do little to help those who don't. So given the remarkable paucity of writing on the topic (including the documentation of the compilers themselves), I decided it would make a good inaugural topic for this blog. It's a compiler flag or option that exists in many languages

Ray Tracing in J 2020-04-18 I've been reading up on J and decided another small project was in order, this time I've written a minimal ray tracer. Brevity J is, perhaps infamously, a terse language. I think it may sometimes get unfairly discounted for this brevity because of the flavor of the syntax (namely, ASCII). It can be a little hard to describe, but the syntax isn't the hard part of learning J, the jarring parts are a result of the paradigm differences in array programming. By the tim

The radix 2^51 trick Faster addition and subtraction on modern CPUs Do you remember how to do long addition on paper? ¹¹ ¹ 6876 + 3406 ------ 10282 Starting from the “ones” position, we add 6 + 6 = 12, write down a 2 and carry a 1. We proceed to the left, one position at a time, until there are no more digits to add. When implementing addition for large integers (e.g. 264 and above), it’s common to write code that looks quite similar to this algorithm. Interestingly, there’s a straightforwa

As the chief merchandising officer for one of the largest sellers on Amazon, Owen Carr knew that the deck chairs he ordered from a Chinese factory in early April would cost him more than ever before. That’s because the chairs, which normally go for $79 on Amazon, were among the first Chinese imports subject to minimum tariffs of 145 percent—a sky-high rate imposed by President Donald Trump—when they arrived at a port in Seattle in late April. “I was paying more to customs than to the factory for

Vikings were formidable Scandinavian warriors and sailors who, from around 800 to 1050 CE, raided, traded, and settled throughout northern Europe, Iceland, Greenland, and even as far as North America. Most of what scholars know about Viking maritime networks, however, has to do with their start and end points. After all, they could have taken any number of routes in between. To shed light on this gap, an archaeologist decided to follow in the Vikings’ footsteps—or, more accurately, their wake.
