ARM’s Scalable Vector Extensions: A Critical Look at SVE2 For Integer Workloads

ARM’s Scalable Vector Extensions: A Critical Look at SVE2 For Integer Workloads

Scalable Vector Extensions (SVE) is ARM’s latest SIMD extension to their instruction set, which was announced back in 2016. A follow-up SVE2 extension was announced in 2019, designed to incorporate all functionality from ARM’s current primary SIMD extension, NEON (aka ASIMD).

Despite being announced 5 years ago, there is currently no generally available CPU which supports any form of SVE (which excludes the [Fugaku supercomputer](https://www.fujitsu.com/global/about/innovation/

A small state-of-the-art study on custom engines

CUSTOM GAME ENGINES: A Small Study

a_plague_tale

A couple of weeks ago I played (and finished) A Plague Tale, a game by Asobo Studio. I was really captivated by the game, not only by the beautiful graphics but also by the story and the locations in the game. I decided to investigate a bit about the game tech and I was surprised to see it was developed with a custom engine by a relatively small studio. I know there are some companies using custom engines but it's very difficult to find a detailed market study with that kind of information curated and updated. So this article.

Nowadays lots of companies choose engines like Unreal or Unity for their games (or that's what lot of people think) because d

fork() is evil; vfork() is goodness; afork() would be better; clone() is stupid

I recently happened upon a very interesting implementation of popen() (different API, same idea) called popen-noshell using clone(2), and so I opened an issue requesting use of vfork(2) or posix_spawn() for portability. It turns out that on Linux there's an important advantage to using clone(2). I think I should capture the things I wrote there in a better place. A gist, a blog, whatever.

This is not a paper. I assume reader familiarity with fork() in particular and Unix in general, though, of course, I link to relevant wiki pages, so if the unfamiliar reader is willing to go down the rabbit hole, they should be able to come ou

Npm inject для кеширования папки node_modules
#!/usr/bin/env bash
# Фейковый npm
# Нужен для кэширования папки node_modules
# Кэш находится в папке ~/.cache/npm-inject/[sha1 хэш файла package.json]/node_modules
#
# В PATH надо добавить путь папки с фейковым npm, таким образом при выполнении команды `npm install`
# bash вызовет фейковый npm c параметром `install`.
# Фейк проверяет наличие папки [sha1 хэш файла package.json] в кэше.
# Если она в кэше, создаем на неё симлинк node_modules

Вводная часть

У CSS есть несколько базовых проблем, которые позволяют очень быстро отстрелить себе ногу при неправильном использовании:

  1. Глобальный неймспейс – в серверном программировании все что написано в файле, в файле и остается. Все же что написано в css и js засирает глобальное пространство имен со всеми вытекающими. В JS эту проблему сейчас побороли всякими модульными системами, а вот с css сложнее. В идеальном мире это должен починить Shadow DOM и настоящие Web Components, но пока их нет единственный способ с этим бороться – следовать какой-то системе именований селекторов, которая по возможности уменьшает и исключает возможные конфликты.

  2. Каскадность – если на один элемент может сработать несколько правил, то они все и сработают последовательно. Если есть элемент h1.title, на него сработают все правила для тегов h1 и все правила для класса .title. Так как весь html состоит из тегов, то правил которые п

What forces layout/reflow. The comprehensive list.

What forces layout / reflow

All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.

Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.

Element APIs
