@dotstdy @mcc @hikari Yes, I would like several hundred ud2 instructions sprinkled randomly throughout my program. I will definitely not regret this.

@steve @mcc @hikari my favorite part is when people work hard to write explicit nan checks and handling, which then immediately get thrown away by the compiler. (this is all only in internal builds, at least, but it's a bit funny)

@dotstdy @mcc @hikari we went to some length to avoid this in Apple's math.h, so you get a fast inline test when __FINITE_MATH_ONLY__ == 0 and a mandatory function call if you turn on fast-math. This still can't catch everything.

@steve @mcc @hikari Another fun case is when you generate nans with fast math, but don't without. Feels very Congrats, You Played Yourself.

@dotstdy @steve @mcc @hikari
people seriously use fast math?!

@Doomed_Daniel @steve @mcc @hikari well probably associative-math would get most of the buck without so much of the bang, but where's the fun in that.

@dotstdy @Doomed_Daniel @mcc @hikari associative-math and no-signed-zeros generally get you most of the benefits
