I would say it reversed. Technology is _just one_ form of culture.

I think that most people that are "scientific" are unable (because of our education) to _try_ to think about the validity of this way of _understanding_. I like to think that socie…

Yes, just that server and client are very much tied, and we have a release cadence of one new version per week. So, you would need to track the release of each week and compile it,…

The project started, as you stated, as a clone of Cube World (the name CloneWorld was thrown a few times, did not stick). But it was rapidly decided that the direction we wanted wa…

The launcher was there to make it easier to pull the latest build without needing to check if a new version was available. A couple of years back the updates were irregular (someti…

Don't you think this is too short an argument to dismiss an as complex topic as this is? What, aside from this argument (which I'd like to found an study providing evidence of what…

Which is a lot, at least in terms or how much you can buy. Mexico is really cheap, compared to USA.

In Mexico you cannot have that, as the constitution says that no right that you had can be taken from you retroactively. The problem is the Mexico is the most strict country (by la…

It doesn't work on Windows either... at least by a comment in the issue. I don't have Windows.

It can explain it. Better training and better equipment are (at least) two variables that improve people timings. Maybe a century ago there was an Usain Bolt, just didn't had neith…

I've never used it, but (from what I've seen) is a great tool for modeling Voxels. Shameless plug: The format (and the tool) has been used with great success in Veloren, an Open So…

Thus is a great tool, although not FOSS. But I've seen great things made with this, as it is used for Veloren (www.veloren.net), an Open Source (and open assets) voxel MMORPG writt…

And exactly that is one of the things Julia was designed for, you don't need two languages to get the performance. This allows to have even more flexibility, you can write allocati…

Thanks for the link! Then I guess there is not a lot more that can be said currently, except that maybe Mojo still needs more compiler work. Still, I prefer how readable is the Jul…

About the show startup times, they have been worked massively in the latest version of Julia. Mainly in version 1.9, which is the first version of Julia that saves native compiled …

While the second part is true, it is a fundamental restriction because Julia compiles a method until it is actually hit and types are defined for the call stack. In equivalent mann…

I cannot edit my comment, but you're completely right about it being optimised. I will say that I'm not familiar with what idioms might the Mojo compiler be able to optimise better…

All the other answers are true. But there is one thing I didn't see people saying. Thanks to the existence of macros, you can create->compile code in runtime. This allows for faste…

There is a package for Julia that does this, it's called InteractiveViz.jl [1]. It is rally neat and used GPU rendering underneath with (GL)Make.jl [2]. [1] https://github.com/org-…

Edit: I see your point now. Still, I don't know if there is some specific idiom that the current version of the compiler may optimise better. :)
