It reckons the speedy charging battery technology could be on the market within three years. According to this chart it really works: https://xkcd.com/678/

Of course that doesn't apply to games anymore but to high performance computing. Systems for gaming vary too much for that to be of any importance. Maybe if you are doing it for th…

I was curious about this as I have never done any such testing, so I wrote a simple c program. The object was a struct with a size of a typical game object( 100B ), then I trashed …

Frames per seconds is better in almost every way. When you use it to watch movies it is better since a normal human understands seconds but not what a frame is. In gaming, frame ti…

As an obfuscated c example I was expecting portable code. Anyone hoping that as many people as possible try their code should aim for that.

HN got really trigger happy in the last few weeks. That part of the comment only is partially correct, and not was even the main point of my comment; what I really meant was that i…

Doesn't run correctly under windows. The code relies on the system call "stty cbreak", which is linux specific. 'stty' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operabl…

right click >> Properties >> Disable metro I hope there is an obscure setting somewhere that would disable metro completely. As a programmer I see no benefit to it.

This is why I don't like April F. Everything has to be rechecked/researched x times. The 60 minutes article is definitely not AF and I doubt my link is also.

The strangest outcome of all of this is that Bill O'Reilly's actually made some sense for the first time in history. http://youtu.be/Pt0ot1LgXZQ?t=1m3s

Seriously, what are they waiting for. I'm not a teenager anymore, but If this was a serious app I would totally go catch a few, granted as a joke. And kids would go crazy over this…

Comment on the blog that got deleted: I did a similar test in C and have gotten very similar results. When N is around 4000 the trashing version starts to differ substantially. A 3…

Note the phrase might as well . The example was a stab at how you can't make such assumptions.

You don't know that, they might as well changed their opinion and are now too embarrassed to speak about it. I think a lot of people were acting with pure emotion. Once the surpris…

I appreciate the response. I'm still skeptical about the actual energy usage. If the % more kinetic energy applies equally to battery energy usage.

Can we see your calculation and reasoning or did you make the numbers up?

This is exactly the reason they responded. By changing the code quietly, they would implicate themselves. An official PR statement like this is obligatory. What is more probable, t…

Look at the code as the author suggests; you will notice that a part of the code( ~40 lines ) is identical, including the comments.

I suppose I will get a FB account now, so that may lead to some writing a little longer than tweet length If only there existed such a thing before facebook, a platform to enable o…

Sound like an announcement to the shareholders via a large conference call, not an internal discussion.

His ultimate goal is to make the holodeck.

I think for Carmack the situation is the same as when Id was acquired by Zenimax. So for anyone curious just look what happened then. He doesn't care, as long he can work on the st…

I can't comprehend that John Carmack is now working for facebook.
