For instance, the 32-bit desktop-oriented PowerPC processors in little-endian mode act as little-endian from the point of view of the executing programs, but they require the motherboard to perform a 64-bit swap across all 8 byte lanes to ensure that the little-endian view of things will apply to I/O devices. In the absence of this unusual ...
A little would be äs bitzli (literally a little bite) as to "ein bisschen" in Standard German. The diminutive form of bitzli is birebitzli. Vowels of proper names often turn into an umlaut in Highest Alemannic, whereas in High Alemannic it remains the same.
In this era, bit groupings in the instruction stream were often referred to as syllables [a] or slab, before the term byte became common. The modern de facto standard of eight bits, as documented in ISO/IEC 2382-1:1993, is a convenient power of two permitting the binary-encoded values 0 through 255 for one byte, as 2 to the power of 8 is 256.

The z/Architecture, which is the 64-bit member of that architecture family, continues to refer to 16-bit halfwords, 32-bit words, and 64-bit doublewords, and additionally features 128-bit quadwords. In general, new processors must use the same data word lengths and virtual address widths as an older processor to have binary compatibility with ...
A locally testable code is a type of error-correcting code for which it can be determined if a string is a word in that code by looking at a small (frequently constant) number of bits of the string. In some situations, it is useful to know if the data is corrupted without decoding all of it so that appropriate action can be taken in response.
a little bit joyful: Slightly less joyful than allegro (so slightly slower tempo) Andante: walking: At a walking pace; flowing; moderately slow tempo Andantino: a little bit walking: Less of a walking pace than andante (so slightly quicker) A tempo: to time: Return to previous tempo Fermata: held, stopped, orig. Latin firmo "make firm, fortify"
At first, a brown recluse spider bite may look like a bug bite or bee sting. It can be a small, raised red or purplish bump. You may see a tiny pinprick or two fang marks at the area of the bite.
Glacé ("glazed"), iced or decorated tiny cakes covered in fondant or icing, such as small éclairs, and tartlets; Salé ("salted"), savory bite-sized appetizers usually served at cocktail parties or buffets; Sec ("dry"), dainty biscuits, baked meringues, macarons, and puff pastries
