In simplistic terms, at supersonic speeds the air particles do not have sufficient time to "get out of the way" of the body moving in the air. This causes the air particles to be c…

While I've always appreciated some music due to some amazing specific technical aspect, such as Jacob Collier's harmonies or Steve Vai's guitar skills, the records I'd take with me…

After years of waiting, it's hard to believe it's finally fixed. Will try this out immediately.

Due to his heart transplant, he was sometimes dubbed as the only man in Wall Street with a heart. Rest in peace.

In my case, CPU usage goes to the roof if I use a scaled resolution instead of the default one. If that is the case with all macOS users with non-default resolution, I wouldn't cal…

It certainly does seem to work better with default resolution.

Me too, and as it happens, I'm running on retina with "more space" enabled. Firefox is unusably slow, to the point where I'm probably abandoning it after a few weeks of really tryi…

This is spot on, because often we prepare by wearing a mouth guard, while in reality their protection against getting knocked out basically zero.

I wonder what he thinks of computer science.

Quality debugger integration and easy navigation in code.

Well, of course you don't _need_ it. You can always go and parse the extension string yourself, then call LoadLibrary() and GetProcAddress() to manually setup pointers to the exten…

Portability etc notwithstanding and purely from an API point of view, there's no question that DirectX is superior to OpenGL. There are lots of examples, but the mere fact that you…

It's a good idea to always name your matrices in a manner that explicitly states the source and destination coordinate systems. So rather than 'projection', 'view' and 'model' you'…

A couple of comments/elaborations on the "core differences" mentioned in the article: The first difference mentioned is that whereas the first SSE2 implementations were often imple…

However, different binaries may generally yield slightly different results due to compilers ordering floating-point operations differently, for example.

The juxtaposition between hardware being the loss-leader over software, and vice versa, is interesting. The article states that "clearly one model is working and one isn't". I'm no…
