Not really. MMIO mapped at 0x0 for example.


Yikes! I would love sipping coffee watching the chief architect chew up whoever suggested that. That sounds awful even on a microcontroller.


On s390 the memory at address 0 (low core) has all sorts of important stuff. Of course s390 has paging enabled pretty much always but still...


AVR’s registers are mapped to address 0. So reading and writing NULL is actually modifying r0.


AVR’s r0 is also a totally normal register, unlike most other RISC which typically have r0 == 0.


Thanks for saving me a search, because I was expecting r0 to be hardcoded to zero.

Sometimes hardware is designed with insufficient input from software folks and the result is something asinine like that. That, or some people like watching the world burn.


> The ping backed memory storage

It's worth noting that this is a network reincarnation of the old tried-and-true delay-line memory.

All fun and games until Enderman starts shitting bad sectors all over the place


Manual error correction in Minecraft the equivalent of going at one's hard drive with a magnetized needle.


Or steal the block that has your bash profile....


Wouldn't be too hard to add some hamming encoding


You're going to need redundancy of some sort. The Enderman can just steal your read (head)block.


That's where low-profile memory comes in. If the space is only two blocks tall, then corruption is prevented.


IIRC some carriers explicitly recognize "STOP" (exact phase) as a special directive to block the sender for marketing messages.


"This statement is false." ;)


That’s a statement unprovable in math and reality. You're likely thinking of Gödel.


Not much, but you immediately know it's a function (abstraction).

Besides, the standard notation for the "arrow function" is maplet (x ↦ x + 1) in mathematics. I assume λ notation sees frequent uses in logic and computation theory.


The characters in OP's arrow function have the benefit of being available on a standard keyboard layout. This has proven to be an important syntactic feature, imo.


Haskell uses a single backslash \ in place of λ


Last time I checked the Discord bot API, it had explicit provisions for sharding.


I assume the top reply was referring to "OEM unlocked bootloader/fastboot"


It would be fun if it was "half Prolog, half Common Lisp"
