There are arguments that the brain is quantum, as in parts of it locally using quantum effects. Which if true, might make a counter-argument, as there will be bigger data centers n…

A 3D transform is built into the BVH, which the ray follows when evaluating the BVH. This adds animation information too. The upside is i think, that the animation is evaluated on …

I am wondering if it would be possible to print a splat similarly as it is shown on the screen, so not voxelized, but like a hologram with overlapping transparent gaussians. It loo…

Hate to be the one saying this, but that rootkit is there to prevent you from molesting/cheating other players. So its not an one-sided issue. It is unfortunate that the developers…

You don't have to tell all this to me, or try to convince me. I was just describing what the general attitude is. Oracle's behaviour is a risk, even if Java is open source.

> So I am not exactly in the group of people you are attacking. I wasnt attacking anyone. Developers are used to the lack of type-safety in JS, and assume that having to code in a …

Once i heard a manager explain "we must get rid of anything Oracle, including Java, because of license reasons". I see this attitude everywhere since. JavaScript people are too afr…

I have this principle of "5% scripting". If the high level scripting on top of C++ consumes about 5% of frame time, then the language of the script does not matter.

A DLC and AI slop is not the same thing. Tho Steam reviews will burry both AI slop and bad DLC accordingly. And players do care about reviews.

Gamers hate AI art as it is, developers hate unreliable AI made code. Lets make something with both.

The problem is the way surface lighting/scattering is calculated, which does not match what traditional offline renders do. My issue with UE is the opposite, the engine went too fa…

Yes. If you get 120M+ in funding, you no longer qualify to be called indie.

I thought only organs of people dying in accidents are donated, and not someone's dying from an illness.

I had a WTF moment last week, i was writing SQL, and there was no autocomplete at all. Then a chunk of autocomplete code appeared, what looked like an SQL injection attack, with so…

I read somewhere, that it might not have been a process, but a unique event. Dogs are not just gradually tamed wolves, but domestication might have been started with a genetic defe…

>strikingly high probabilities to very high prices, along with lower probabilities for a wide range of lower prices Isn't this describing the strategy of keeping ever high prices, …

>see streaming companies increasing prices every few months They can do that because they are practically monopolies.

There are libraries, like fastutil, that provide collections for primitive types.

-10 for modules is fair, only 4 for lambdas is not. My programming style changed after using lambdas in Java, even when using a different programming language later that doesn't ha…

Substitute orangutans for Australopithecus. That is (one of) the branches that did evolve more intelligence, but didn't survive. I suppose there were lots of such branches, that ei…

I am familiar with SAP, all that you say is only true if you don't know how to do it. I see this a lot, people that are familiar with "normal" technology, try to invent ways to do …

The only tool you knew about.

Who does even run Netweaver Java AS today? Apparently some do, but that was a bad idea from the start. It is an optional server component letting Java applications run in the SAP s…

I think the success is completely logical, in hindsight, when you consider that the majority of the crypto traffic is bots (to hide the traceability, money laundering, scams), or l…
