Abstract interpretation in the Toy Optimizer

CF Bolz-Tereick wrote some excellent posts in which they introduce a small IR and optimizer and extend it with allocation removal. We also did a live stream together in which we did some more heap optimizations.

瑞士强制要求所有政府软件开源

瑞士 通过了名为《联邦电子政务法》（EMBAG）的立法，强制要求所有公共部门使用 开源 软件 (OSS)。 该法律规定，除非涉及第三方权利或安全问题，否则所有公共机构必须公开其开发或为其开发的软件的源代码。这一举措旨在提高政府运营的透明度、安全性，和效率。

Is performance reduced when executing loops whose uop count is not a multiple of processor width?

I'm wondering how loops of various sizes perform on recent x86 processors, as a function of number of uops.

Here's a quote from Peter Cordes who raised the issue of non-multiple-of-4 counts in ano...

How we securely generate sensitive secrets

We regularly have to create and manage secrets that grant very sensitive privileges, and so we’ve created a new process that makes it fast and easy for us to securely and verifiably perform all kinds of sensitive operations.

How conditional breakpoints work 🐢

Conditional breakpoints are extremely useful, but everyone knows [citation needed] that they’re super slow, to the point where people stop using them. Visual Studio recently did some good improvements and @ryanjfleury still dunked on it for being too slow.…

美国总统拜登21日宣布退出2024年美国总统大选，并支持提名副总统哈里斯为民主党总统候选人。
拜登在X上说，“为了我的政党和国家的最大利益，我应放弃（寻求连任），并全力以赴完成我作为总统在剩余任期内的职责”。拜登宣布将支持哈里斯寻求民主党2024年总统提名，并呼吁民主党人团结起来击败共和党总统候选人特朗普。
哈里斯赞扬拜登“无私和爱国的行为”并计划“谋求并赢得”党内提名。她表示自己将竭尽所能，团结民主党和美国，击败特朗普及其极端的名为“2025项目”的总统过渡计划。
在与特朗普进行电视辩论后，拜登的表现促使越来越多的民主党人呼吁他退选。许多民主党议员担心拜登继续参选可能会使民主党失去白宫以及国会。
知情人士称，拜登在20日晚还计划继续参选，但在21日下午改变了主意。民调显示，哈里斯的支持率比拜登稍高，但在误差范围内。目前还不清楚其他人是否会挑战哈里斯的提名。
部分民主党人已开始团结在哈里斯的周围，但也有部分人赞扬拜登的决定却未表态支持哈里斯。一些共和党人进一步呼吁拜登立即辞去总统职务，认为拜登在没有能力竞选总统的情况下，也没有能力继续执政。
