| L1 cache reference 0.5 ns | |
| Branch mispredict 5 ns | |
| L2 cache reference 7 ns 14x L1 cache | |
| Mutex lock/unlock 25 ns | |
| Main memory reference 100 ns 20x L2 cache, 200x L1 cache | |
| Compress 1K bytes with Zippy 3,000 ns 3 us | |
| Send 1K bytes over 1 Gbps network 10,000 ns 10 us | |
| Read 4K randomly from SSD* 150,000 ns 150 us ~1GB/sec SSD |

| Actually, that's a feature | |
| Don't worry, that value is only wrong half of the time | |
| Even though it doesn't work, how does it feel? | |
| Everything looks fine my end | |
| How is that possible? | |
| I broke that deliberately to do some testing | |
| I can have a look but there's a lot of if statements in that code! | |
| I can't make that a priority right now | |
| I can't test everything | |
| I couldn't find any examples of how that can be done anywhere else in the project |
A lot of important government documents are created and saved in Microsoft Word (*.docx). But Microsoft Word is a proprietary format, and it's not really useful for presenting documents on the web. So, I wanted to find a way to convert a .docx file into markdown.
On a mac you can use homebrew by running the command brew install pandoc.
