    I tend to use a single compilation unit, and use plain C. For a 50k line project I have build times of 1-1.2sec. On top of that I'm also linking to opengl, windows.h and a couple o…

    Despite what the code may look like, they all have a very easy to use API. Take stb_image.h for example. Most people need just two functions, stbi_load(), which loads any supported…

    Disabling the box shadow on .content-root fixes the performance bug (FF46.0).

    This seems pretty draconic. To compare with a recent law passed here, in Belgium: - A fee of 4.000 Euro to bring a product to market. - Juice bottles of maximum 10ml - No remote se…

    The most surprising detail to me was how much water they have to drain out of the metro each day: "As a result, he said, they “discharge approximately 2-million gallons of water a …

    Loading the table and chair scene caused a huge memory leak, quickly consuming 14GB of memory and then crashing Firefox. It's still a cool demo though!

    If it behaves like RAM, from the POV of the OS, I'd imagine the advantage to be the large size. There's also the fact that it won't lose its data on power loss. Of course, if it be…
