If you're really interested in readability you would probably define those bits, like:

#define HIGHSTUFF (0b001011 << 17)
#define NOTSOHIGHSTUFF (0b010011011 << 8)

and then or them together.

Alternatively you could define a macro for your bit field, like:

#include
#define bitfield(a,b,c,d) 0x##a##b##c##d
int main() {
        printf("%x", bitfield(f,f,f,f));
}

The feature is actually working! I had totally forgotten Bing existed!

Meta-discussions have to happen somewhere... where do you suggest?

For extra nerdiness, 0x853204FA81 is prime.

Uh oh, somebody got his contradictions/hypocrisies rubbed the wrong way. :)

Thanks. Btw, did you try to factor it? :)

Yes, let's just starve everybody to death! That's what Jesus would do! [I hope I don't need to explain why I'm conflating things.]

No, I didn't say that. The example I gave was only to elucidate that a single gene (or even a bunch of them) doesn't define a population. I read my post again and the message still seems clear. But ok, I'll make it fucking transparent: suppose I write a book and copy an entire paragraph of Shakespeare's Hamlet, then proceed to burn every single copy of the aforementioned play. It doesn't matter that a paragraph continues to exist in another book, Hamlet went extinct.

I haven't said Denisovans were a different species... you are aware that the word "extinction" is not limited to species right? If all Caucasians | Africans | Mongolians died, their population would be extinct. Their genes would still survive in other humans, and that doesn't make any difference to the fact they would be extinct.

And how the fuck did you read religious connotations in my post? I'm an atheist.

Yes, the "people with the gene" were called Denisovans, they "disappeared", therefore they did go extinct. It seems you don't follow the logic of your own statements.

And just to make it even more clear: suppose I make dog with the tomato gene for photosynthesis (a solar powered dog, how cool is that), then kill every single tomato plant in the world with some Monsanto shit. It doesn't matter that my glorious green power efficient dog would carry the tomato gene... tomatos would still have gone extinct.

They tried understanding their own sigs after some time.

Yes, that's the obvious reasoning. And that's certainly interesting enough on its own. But the summary said

Somebody has to do the translation, agree?

I agree it is a good thing. IIRC, Altera even made a tool for synthesis from OpenCL (great for me, as I don't know VHDL and Verilog).

I'm in particular interested in that Parallella board (http://www.parallella.org/), but they're out of stock, and I've been the queue for months without a response.

What? This doesn't make sense. Unless Intel invented a way to automatically generate parallel code (in which case it could also be used in GPUs), somebody would have to rewrite the relevant parts of the program in VHDL, Verilog, OpenCL, or whatever.

According to Wikipedia and vocabulary.com:

So I stand by everything I've said, including that you're wrong.
