This is now solved although quite naively at the cost of
inserting twice the number of instructions for thoose cases.
Then agian we are still much faster then the old interpreter.
And I can still optimize this if it should turn out to be a
bottleneck.
Tomorrow I will fix the regressed string handling.

You could extend it by adding "health tips" (add fruit & veg automatically), a calorie counter (for single items and the whole list) ;) http://rejectedsoftware.com/products/reshop Yeah, diet/health tips are always a hot topic, I think we even talked about something like that at some point ;) Porting it to those platforms was the initial idea. But since both BB10 and WP are more or less dead now, the main feature of providing full cross-platform synchronization of the lists became a moot point (there are plenty of solutions for Android/iOS already). And then it also really was just a little test project anyway.

In the latter case we might use it to make some money for the D Foundation. @Chris you should get in touch with the nice guys from Sociomantic (e.g. Dylan Cromwell (https://github.com/dylan-cromwell-sociomantic) and Leandro Lucarella (https://github.com/leandro-lucarella-sociomantic)). They are working on helping the D Foundation to setup a D Store with swag ;-) Will they sell D-shirts as well (couldn't resist the pun!).

Turns out that this is not actually a LDC/LLVM bug, but an artefact of Ubuntu 16.10 patching GCC to generate position-independent executables by default. Is DMD also affected by this? Does anybody know how other languages are dealing with the change? — David

When is this moving into dmd master?
As soon as it passes the test-suite.
And can execute diet-ng on the fast-path.
Currently I have issues with chained binary expressions.
such as

Yes! There memory usage is the same as run-time execution. plus about 16k for the interpreter state.

From the D Blog: Martin Nowak on the DMD release process
It was time for another Core Team Update on the D Blog. This time around, Martin Nowak shares how he got involved with the DMD release process and where you can learn more about it. The post is at [1] and the reddit thread at [2]. Now that Vladimir and Martin have gotten their updates out of the way, I foresee some prodding, cajoling and arm twisting in my future for the next couple :) [1] https://dlang.org/blog/2016/07/29/core-team-update-martin-nowak/ [2] https://www.reddit.com/r/programming/comments/4v68ty/from_the_d_blog_martin_nowak_on_the_dmd_release/
Re: Battle-plan for CTFE
Hi, I have fresh performance statistics: The test[1] involved running an empty while loop. Machine 1 Linux : DMD release : Interpreted : 3400 ms || Pseudo-Jited 230 || 50ms Native DMD Debug : Interpreted 4560 || Pseudo-Jited 260ms || Native 230 ms LDC release : Interpreted 2400 ms || Pseudo-Jited 0 ms || Native 0 ms LDC debug : Interpreted 8700 ms || Pseudo-Jited 330 ms || Native 250 ms Machine 2 Windows : DMD release : Interpreted : 5500 ms || Pseudo-Jited 180ms || 40ms Native DMD Debug : Interpreted 5500 || Pseudo-Jited 320ms || Native 180 ms Pay attention to the ratio (~4.5) between (pseudo)jit[2] and native. This slowdown inherent in the VM design I choose. please share your thoughts.

Re: The D Language Foundation has filed for non-profit status
On Thursday, 21 July 2016 at 02:16:55 UTC, Andrei Alexandrescu wrote: Hello everyone, Effective today the IRS has received the application of The D Language Foundation for tax-exempt (non-profit) status. An attorney and an accountant have helped me with the application. Going forward, they will work with us on a need basis. Following the next few months we have an odd "limbo" status. After that (most likely before the end of this year) we will get a decision (or more questions) from the IRS. This is an important milestone for the Foundation and for the D language development. The tax-exempt status will allow the Foundation to receive tax-advantageous donations from other organizations, and to fully use funds for the development of the language. By the Foundation bylaws we defined, the officers of the Foundation (Walter, Ali, and myself) are not allowed to receive payment for their work on the Foundation. Many thanks to our wonderful grass-roots and corporate community that has been ever so constructive and supportive in this endeavor.
