| | One of the more subtle aspects of Rust is how traits can be used as types. In this blog post I will attempt a bit of a deep dive into how to use traits as types and how to choose between the different forms. Preliminary: traits are not typesA type

| | SIMD is a powerful performance technique, and is especially valuable in signal and image processing applications. I will be using it very extensively in my synthesizer, and also it's increasingly used in xi-editor to optimize string comparisons and similar primitives.

| | [AI summary] The text provides an in-depth exploration of SIMD (Single Instruction, Multiple Data) programming, focusing on its application in optimizing algorithms like base64 decoding. It outlines the challenges of writing portable SIMD code across different architectures, the role of compilers and instruction sets, and the importance of avoiding branches in performance-critical code. The article transitions into a practical example of implementing a SIMD version of the base64 decoding algorithm, emphasizing the use of shuffles and data reordering to efficiently process data in parallel. It also touches on the trade-offs between using intrinsics, portable SIMD libraries, and compiler optimizations, while highlighting the complexities of cross-platform deve...

| We introduce a new C++ function tracing profiler, and discuss how to use such a profiler, how to make one for native code, and how a simple CPU hardware feature can make tracing very cheap for compiled, interpreted and JITted languages
