Interesting.... But am I the only one who recalls seeing multiple articles stating that they suspect type A to be the most susceptible? It's curious because due to this study's findings it would appear that while type O fairs the the best, type A has slightly better chances compared to type B and type AB. So in other words type A is the second most resistant? Am I interpreting that right?
I haven't read this properly, and I'm not sure I totally understand the stuff being parsed, but here's my initial thought. Parsing a 4-digit span can be done with PEXT-sub-multiply, and range checking requires a extra few instructions.
initial: 0 0 0 0 3 4 1 2 (characters)
pext: 0 3 0 4 0 1 0 2 (characters)
sub: 0 3 0 4 0 1 0 2
multiply: 3412 412 12 2
Values below '0' will set high bits in the "sub" phase. Do another "sub" to check for values above '9', and branch.
Use of PEXT means potentially very fast handling of separators. Everything can be branchless.
Might not be as fast as SIMD but it should be better than a typical scalar approach.
Sooner or later this is bound to happen and I think the problem is that are too used to things working smoothly and not considering an interruption. Also, time and time again we seem to find it easier to recover from a crisis than to prevent it. It's really strange...
Really interesting. I saw it mentions about distorting distances in the tube. I always wondered why is important to know the distance while being in a metro. I know where I'm supposed to go and as long as it's not my first time travelling I also know how much time it will take. In my opinion the distance (in km) between stops it's irrelevant. Time is of the essence
This shows financial education is needed, but more important it shows that the basic income is too low for the temptations available. In my opinion there are way too many temptations and people aren't thought how to resist them. When I say temptations I'm referring to gadgets, travelling, fashion. Everybody wants to be part of the newest trends and that's the main issue. Also, nobody wants to live in a studio or with a roommate up until 35, but I feel like a house isn't a priority anymore.
