I once accidentally inherited the fast math flag from a parent project in to builds of LuaJIT. The result was that LuaJIT's tagged unions, which are used pretty much everywhere and rely on normal fp functionality, broke drastically. Type checking for all values in the VM broke.

Is there a name for this kind of thing?

I saw these during a holiday in Spain throughout the last week. I have no idea how to use them and didn't see anybody else use them either. It would probably be a different story if my phone had some kind of built-in support for this stuff (maybe it does?). I recall using the "Google Goggles" app for this kind of thing a _long_ time ago but it should be native - and obvious - by now.

I have a feeling that the industry has stopped depending on this stuff already... it's hard to tell without knowing how it works.

I've been using Zoho for my personal email since 2014 now. They haven't made me pay (yet) but I've definitely gotten them a _small_ amount of money through recommendations.

I'd totally pay, though.

That said, I'm not a big fan of their UI and I only really use the service through forwarding to my gmail address and send mail through gmail -> zoho smtp too.

My go-to for this is "A Tour of C++". It's pretty short and only really covers up to C++17 with a few mentions of C++20.

Could you elaborate on which kind of situations you think you have seen this in? I really don't think I've seen this happen.

This is my experience too. Unless there's some sort of heavy workload going on you can have an "inaudible" computer fairly easily.

Something I've seen people fall for is the idea that water-cooled computers will be more quiet but that's definitely not the case. You'll struggle to find a water pump that is quieter than a decently air cooled PC (when not under heavy load.)

The underscore definitely [feels like it] makes me miss most of the commas.

May I ask why you stopped using Zoho? I'm using them currently, but only to forward my emails to a google account. You mention a lack of features, but of course with a forwarding setup that is not a problem.

Your cube is disappearing for me after about 6 rotations in the same direction with Chrome 61.0.3163.100. Doesn't happen on the non-rational version.

Great book, but not about AI.

What feature of DNS allows this? I'm probably wrong if that's the case.

Perhaps I'll check some other domains too.

My ISP in the UK actually modifies the result of any lookup of google.com/google.co.uk regardless of if I am using their DNS or not.

I don't think this specific example is malicious (it's part of Google's Edge Network I guess? I wouldn't know), but it does show that they're already capable of modifying the DNS lookups ran by their customers.

Pebble also emailed me some links to http://kickstarter.getpebble.com/s/<unique_identifier> which allowed me to pay through Stripe. The HTTP links redirected me to the same URL except HTTPS, so I was happy enough with it.

It was a couple of weeks ago, but it all looked legit to me and I paid ~$30 which was claimed to be 20% VAT.

Edit: And here's part of an email that was sent out on the 30th of June:

  1. Between July 11th and July 24th, we'll send invitations to backers, so you can finalize your pledge.
  2. When you get your invite, you'll provide your shipping address and color preference, and we'll collect VAT.

I was unable to add my PayPal account while using Google Play on my Android the other day. I assumed it was because of this, but there's no useful error message at all unlike the specific issue seen in this post.
