Can you think of a function where the input is valid, the output is NaN and nothing has gone wrong in the process? I can't think of any, haven't experienced any, not heard of any e…

Generally if you're seeing a NaN/Inf something has gone wrong, It's very difficult to gracefully recover from and if you tried I think you would lose both sanity and performance! R…

If you know what a compiler will optimise, might optimise and can't optimise, you can get an intuition for what the generated code will be executing, but even ASM is not "full cont…

I guess that's true. Calling an expensive function effectively in the body of a loop like in this example is going to be an issue in every language. It is difficult to optimise bec…

In my limited experience I find CSS examples always make things look simple, but then in reality I'm forced to do something stupid like this for a 400px canvas: left: 50%; margin-l…

There is more to latency than just the ping to the server. The raw controller input latency / controller polling rate. The time it takes for your packet to get to the server. The n…

That's not correct. In compiled languages, if for example denominator can be computed at compile time, it will almost certainly be optimized to use tricks, the easiest one is to ju…

If you could sandbox part of the screen to say this thing is standalone and cannot perform any networking abilities and is cut off from everything else on the page that would be gr…

Faster per watt I agree. Per clock, they could be somewhat similar with caveats. Per Core, the clock speeds that can be achieved with intel are much higher (even if it throttles). …
