samcv if anyone is around. proof the changelog if you have ti me 07:26
*time
nwc10 "provide text exception text" *seems* like a tautology, but when I read it twice I think I see why "text" is in their twice. 07:51
but is there a way to phrase it without "text" twice?
I assume the "text" used to be just a number
samcv heh 07:55
thanks nwc10. my brain skipped right over that :)

jnthn Finally, snow! \o/ 09:42
nwc10 I think we're on Snow 3.0 already this year 09:51
jnthn It's snowed a tiny bit here earlier on, but this is the first time it seems to be settling. 09:59
lizmat we've one night of snow that was gone by the time we woke up 10:05

nwc10 good *, * 13:48
brrt I'm facing having to fix the 'type checker' in the expression template compiler 13:50
jnthn What's broken about it? 13:58
brrt it isn't able to handle num operands 14:21
I wonder if there are any architectures out there that have floating point support in general purpose registers 14:22
nwc10 brrt: not *sure* if this is what you mean by "in general purpose registers", but see "soft" and specifically "softfp" in "float-abi" in embeddedartistry.com/blog/2017/10/...f0dnskphtc 14:35
(or anything else about the ARM ABI)
this is more about marshalling FP values into pairs of integer registers to pass around 14:36
if I understand it correctly
but my undestanding somewhat fails at anything newer than the "old" ABI 14:38
(ie more than a decade ago)
brrt huh, that's interesting
nwc10 needs to go to catch a train
timotimo IMO "soft float" is not quite enough to say "floating point support" :D
nwc10 (or at least, watch the ETA randomly jump around whilst getting cold) 14:39
brrt anyway, the hardware FP support wants specific floating point registers, so doesn't count 14:40
I presume that makes a bunch of sense on a hardware level, but I wouldn't know
dogbert17 hmm, a SEGV 22:49
