Poor choice of words on my part. Let me fix that. What I mean is, if someone knows what a linked list is, or even if I tell them what a linked list is, being able to come up with some way to reverse it is just very basic problem solving skills. Of course no one question should flunk someone, but It's fair to ask someone if they can code something.

I would point out with the y..=z condition, there is no pythagorean triple where either "short side" of the triangle is the same length as the hypotenuse :) So the condition can be <z. In fact all the solutions can be upgraded to this, so really the equivalence of the solution isn't affected, but if Rust is generating some bad code from that condition, it may improve the performance relative to the others.

Honestly, both Linux and Windows getting to the point where they're unable to be updated would probably be the best thing to happen to computing in decades. People would be forced to start over and maybe make some operating systems that aren't actually shit. Both of those operating systems are so flawed and so shitty at doing what people actually use computers for (gaming, multimedia, etc.).

I'll give you the language-lawyer answer. ---------------------- Overflow (of all integer types) is a "program error", but not undefined behavior. Here's the required behavior: An overflow check will panic at runtime. When `debug_assertions` is set, overflow must be checked for. In cases where overflow is not checked for, it must two's compliment overflow. ---------------------- Practically speaking, `debug_assertions` are set for `cargo build`, and not for `cargo build --release`, so when that code is run, in debug, it will panic. In release, it will run forever. > Hoisting the squaring seems like something that should be possible regardless of overflow semantics though, right? Possibly, I'm not 100% sure. I haven't dug into the details a ton, and woke up pretty recently so I'm a bit slow this morning :)

100% of donations go now towards funding "diversity programs". Exactly what I'd expect if Linux had been taken over by (((SJWs))). Seriously, what the fuck did you expect? When 150% of received funds go towards political propaganda, then MAYBE Linux is seized by political activists? Do you know how percentages work?

You're missing my point, though - the C standard requires that those functions exist. If those functions don't exist, it's (technically) not C. And those functions *can't* exist when writing a kernel. Therefore, the language used to write kernels isn't C. This is obviously rules-lawyering the definition of "pure C", but that term doesn't even make sense without rules-lawyering, so I'm gonna rules-lawyer the shit out of this while simultaneously pointing out that any sensible person would consider kernel-C to be, in all practical ways, C.

It's actually more like a collection of blocks, usually 512 bytes each. Unless it's some virtual file, like a pipe or socket, but, I guess, that if you really wanted to count those too, you could have bit-level precision.

Actually, [SelfDistinction](https://www.reddit.com/r/rust/comments/ab7hsi/comparing_pythagorean_triples_in_c_d_and_rust/ecy5pv7) realized that the issue was using inclusive ranges (`..=z` counts from 0 to z included) vs exclusive ranges (`..(z+1)`). There's also, for some reason, an issue of `x*x` and `z*z` not being hoisted outside the inner loop by LLVM; which is rather surprising.

Maybe it's because I'm old, but sometimes when I look at stuff like this all I see is how much dependence there is on the compiler to make it efficient. I did some quick checks with `gcc`, and of course, if you use full optimizations there aren't even any modulus ops, because of compiler tricks. (if you `imul` by a carefully selected constant and bit-shift, you can test the divisibility cases more efficiently). But for languages that don't have that level of optimization built in, there's an uncomfortable inefficiency in the code. If you do this: if(divis(i,3) and divis(i,5)) ... else if(divis(i,3)) ... else if(divis(i,5)) ... else ... Many languages will not rearrange that to ensure that `divis(i,3)` is done only once. You can use two other strategies -- either precalculate the %3 and %5 values, as /u/JoshMcguigan did in his Rust solution, or you can do each in turn and set a flag whether you need to print the number. Depending on the language, one might be faster or prettier than the other. IMO, even if compilers and computers are fast, we shouldn't be satisfied with code that's obviously less efficient when we read it in the source.

When I conduct interviews, I relish getting to the point of transition between reciting details from memory (boring AF) to not being entirely sure how things work but having a vague idea. That's when the interview really begins and I can ask you how you would design the system or solve the problem. I can throw obstacles in your way and see how you adapt your solution or if you can spot serious flaws in your solution. Having memorized a bunch of (fairly vague) implementation details about an obscure part of the Linux system just gives me fodder to find an edge of knowledge at which to explore design and problem solving.

I decided to check something... The inner loop is executed 227,112,444 times for 1000 triples. Or, 227,112 executions per line printed. I/O may not matter that much, there, so locking/buffering behavior may not have too much impact. Still, if you are interested, one simple change would be to have the function return only the last triple instead of printing it, then print only those from `main`, drastically reducing I/O behavior, or even returning their sum as the result of the executable. There's a risk that the compiler may pre-compute everything with the latter, though this should be easily detectable.

There are two main factors that cause instability in Raspberry Pi's, and they're both relatively easily mitigated. * MicroSD cards don't make for durable long-term storage, but any Raspberry Pi 3 can boot from a USB drive without any MicroSD inserted. * Cheap USB power supplies or cables will provide inconsistent power. A good cable and power supply will make the Pi stable. I've ran many Pis for months and months without any issues as long as I do these two things.

There was a slight issue with the Rust code; it was using inclusive ranges which are slightly slower than exclusive ranges: with inclusive ranges, a flag must be checked on top of checking the bound at each iteration. Once corrected, the Rust version is now faster than the C++ version, with ranges: 168ms vs 294ms. --- At the same time, though, investigation of the bad performance of the Rust version for the "simple" loop also revealed that for some reason LLVM fails to hoist `x*x` and `z*z` out of the inner loop, which is the reason for Rust losing (217ms vs 154ms). Interestingly, with the lambda version hoisting is performed and Rust clocks at 154ms like the others... This means that the fact that C++ ranges version clocks in at 294ms might very well be something equally silly as a missed optimization. *sigh*

The "original blog post" (at least, the thing linked at the top of the page), says this about the range code: > In my opinion, none of the versions are readable. You can write Haskell in any language, but you'll be fighting its idioms the whole way, and the result probably won't be pretty. You can also write [C in Haskell](https://benchmarksgame-team.pages.debian.net/benchmarksgame/faster/haskell.html), but why do that?

(I personally agree with the motivation, I think that writing the code the modern way feels better for several reasons, but it is also way more verbose for unrelated reasons, so I can see things both ways.)

That's the thing - I get a lot of incompetent candidates coming through the system, so I find those sorts of problems useful for filtering. I'd estimate that for every candidate with strong CS skills, I see 20 resumes for people who claim lots of skills but can't actually solve simple problems (even in pseudo-code). Sure, I catch most in the resume, but plenty of recruiters will help candidates massage (if not outright lie on) their resume to make them look more competent than they are, so I find it useful to baseline an interview by asking a simple problem and making sure they can come up with some approach that's at least closer to on the right track.

By being racist and assuming that black and brown people should be helped into these particular fields at the expense of white and Asian people? Or that females should be helped into these fields at the expense of males? The reality is that neither race nor gender should be a factor here. Nobody should be looking at a field and seeing a PROBLEM because there are not equal numbers of specific social justice designated groups... women, black or brown people, etc. I don't see strong pushes to force more women into being garbage collectors, for example. But I see all kinds of tantrums being thrown about women not getting paid enough money for desk jobs that are being done by more qualified men who actually went to school and worked for and earned the relevant degrees, and worked in the field and got the relevant experience, etc. Again, look at what the actual degrees are that women get in college vs men. And don't pretend that women don't have a choice. They are free to choose whatever they want, and outnumber males at every single level in higher education now. Males are the minority in higher education. http://www.randalolson.com/2014/06/14/percentage-of-bachelors-degrees-conferred-to-women-by-major-1970-2012/ http://www.randalolson.com/2014/06/15/the-double-edged-sword-of-gender-equality/ Seriously. Compare those charts. And maybe you'll understand why you do not and should not see a natural 50/50 split in all fields, especially not computer and engineering related fields. You very much are trying to claim that MY LIFE RIGHT NOW should somehow be dictated by someone I've never met, who is generations removed from me, etc. If it weren't for the fact that I'm a genetic genealogist and have done the research, I wouldn't even know who anyone in my family is that far back in time, and their lives certainly have had almost ZERO impact on mine outside of the fact that I exist because they had sex and at least some of their children lived long enough to do the same. Or the idea that women NEED HELP to get into fields today where men don't... it's not only ridiculous, but it's actually sexist and infantilizes women. It says that women are too weak or stupid to do what men seem to just do naturally. And again, as we see from the Nordic states, when given the most freedom possible to choose, more women choose to go into stereotypically feminine fields, because that's what MOST WOMEN WANT. Men and women aren't equal! They don't want the same things, and we shouldn't expect them to. This idea that we have to WORK ON DIVERSITY and try reducing whites and males, and increasing non-whites and women in various fields is inherently wrong-headed, sexist, racist, etc. It punishes those who are actually most interested and put in the most work merely for the reality that they did so. Sorry, but the idea that women are systematically held down in this country today would be laughable if it weren't being used to justify the kinds of attacks on men that it is. (For example the myth of the "gender wage gap", which is presented as some proof of patriarchal discrimination, when in reality it is almost entirely due to women simply choosing different careers, working less hours, preferring benefits over pay, and so on. Personal choices, not external oppression.) Or the idea that blacks today cannot be held to the same standards as anyone else, as though they can never be expected to have personal agency, to be held to the same standards as any other race, to get an education, to work hard, etc... and can continue clinging to some excuse about slavery more than a century and a half later... or that people can justify punishing white people solely for being white... and somehow believe they're NOT being racist for race based discrimination based on demonstrably misguided and even outright false stereotypes about racial groups, and thus treating every INDIVIDUAL from a group identically, rather than dealing with human beings on an individual basis, based on individual character, merit, need, etc... No. The distant past is not some significant deciding force in our lives, and definitely not things that happened many generations before we were born in this country. If you want an education, get it. If you want a good paying job, get it. Earn it. It's that simple. If you're not willing to do that, it's not our fault. I am not to blame for your failure to put in the effort. I spent most of my life below the poverty line. I've lived in the ghetto, etc. I got the jobs I did because I put in the work. I taught myself computers, learned how to build computers and run a BBS back in the early 90s, got into Linux in the mid-90s. Worked in silicon valley in the dot-com boom because friends I'd made while working on those Linux projects before Linux went big brought me in to continue doing that work. I built on that work and experience to get other good jobs, and after taking a break for a few years to work at an old folks home (very emotionally fulfilling, but not well paying) I now work as an x-ray technician in the aerospace industry. I come from eating literal government cheese, wearing GoodWill clothes and hand-me-downs, living on foodstamps, etc... being practically homeless for awhile, living under someone's table for awhile... crashing on couches, etc... but I continued learning, and worked for the opportunities I got, which were based on my work. I got to where I am today based on that. Not on my skin color. Not on some benefit conferred to me by my farmer ancestors who didn't go to school past the 6th grade, etc. And the idea that one would assume that a non-white person needs more help than me just because of the difference of our skin color would show the person who holds that belief to be the bigger racist. The idea that all members of a racial group have the same level of oppression or privilege and shouldn't instead be treated as individual human beings with their own desires, challenges, merits, etc. I've gone on long enough.

if it works for you it works for you. I'd laugh my way out the door if someone acted like he does in his emails in real life at me. Being forthright and willing to embrace conflicts are one thing, but the way he amplifies things just comes off as childish to me and there'd be no way I could respect that person enough to work for them, inventor of Linux or not.

I mean I am obviously missing all the context here about how it was announced, what the actual proposed interview methodology was, etc, but if whatever they proposed still yielded hires who can do the job, then what's the problem? Moving teams should always be on a case-by-case basis, based on the person's actual suitability for the team they want to move to, right? What was it about the proposal that made everyone feel that there was an implication that mobile is "easier"?

I don't disagree with you in essence. I'm just pointing out that by failing to engage with the interview question, you effectively demonstrated that you either don't understand the purpose, or you're actually difficult to work with. Either of those are pretty big red flags to an employer.

It's also very relatable and something you can easily imagine actually happening. People die all the time, and most people will have some experience with death and the sudden finality of it. The grim aspect of it also hammers home "this is a serious thing to consider and there's no mitigating factors". As others have said, if we call it the "lottery factor" it's almost whimsical and there's the chance for some kind of handover.

Let me put that more simply. The problem isn't helping people who want to get into the field. The problem is looking at a field that is primarily white or male and calling that a PROBLEM that needs to be SOLVED by making it LESS white or LESS male, and then UNequally benefiting non-whites or non-males to shift the proportions to suit your desired outcome, rather than just enabling equal opportunity. The very word "DIVERSITY" is itself a problem, as it indicates that there should ideally be such equal representation of races or genders. That there should be some equal balance between groups etc. That's the problem. This push for "equality of outcome" based on misconceptions about human biology, society, etc... rather than equality of opportunity. "Diversity" is the idea that any imbalance is inherently bad, or indicative of oppression rather than a healthy natural outcome of different interests and different abilities in different people. There is nothing inherently unfair, wrong, harmful, or bad about tech being predominantly male, or even predominantly white, any more than than there is anything wrong with having a country that might be predominantly white. Another thing under attack by the diversity crowd that is actively working from the government on down to "break up" and diminish white communities, white countries, etc... to "increase diversity" as though there's anything inherently good about systematically reducing one particular group to a singularly oppressed minority that is not allowed to hold its own interests or preservation as valuable... to have pride in one's own group or wish to see it preserved. And I can almost guarantee that you feel the desire to call me a white supremacist or something merely for saying that, correct? Which should illustrate my point. One cannot even say "it's OK to be white" without being attacked as a veritable Nazi today. And yet in the same breath these people will insist that whites aren't being kept from having the same self interest or pride or desire for self preservation that essentially every single other non-white group on Earth enjoys today. And when you stop and try to explain how you justify that disparity, you start to see just how much whites really are hated, and how all these moves to push "diversity" and equality of outcome etc... are all just aimed at "punishing" whites, who are seen as singularly and irredeemably evil, a source of misery, singularly responsible for historical evils (genocide, slavery, etc)... correct? Food for thought. And do think carefully.
