This is something my wife just had to learn to accept. Iโ€™ll find something cool and realize I donโ€™t want to go through life not understanding this topic. Most recently: floating point emulation.

Floating point is dope

Iโ€™m particularly interested in how emulators deal with the mismatch between the FPU of the target hardware versus the host.

Itโ€™s a fascinating and frustrating topic when youโ€™re trying to emulate floating point in a specific way using hardware that doesnโ€™t exactly do what you need. But almost. For example, maybe your host rounds differently or uses different status flags so the challenge is to find as many cases as possible where you can still exploit your host FPU without generating incorrect results.

When I first tried swimming, it took me quite a while to get to the floating point.

When you lie on your back on water you go from floating point to floating plane

Whereas I find the phrase alone so complicated that I canโ€™t even bring myself to find out how even more complicated the concept is.

There is no reason needed in the pursuit of knowledge.

Also the Vectis Prime have a higher critical base chance of 30% (25 for the non prime variation)

Careful Tenno, the warframe rabbit hole is a deep one. You may not see the light of day for a while.

I have autism? Thatโ€™s crazy, let me learn way too much about it, and recite the information to random unsuspecting people

I consider myself pretty neurotypical, but my family also calls the thing I do โ€œdad talksโ€ which basically means โ€œwhoops we asked dad something that should take 3 seconds to answer like but it looks like we stumbled into a 35 minute explanation of roman aqueducts for some reasonโ€ so maybe I am just a bad at judging myself.

It makes me so mad that Iโ€™m like this. I used to be ao sociable and Iโ€™d be able to pace myself. Do a little obsessing, go out and tell people. No info dumps, just including interesting stuff a little bit into each conversation. Itโ€™s not my autism failing me, itโ€™s society thatโ€™s creating this loneliness that lets my desire for new information run rampant.
