They measured a bigger gravitational effect on the particle, because the superpositional pair of the particle flew closer to a mass than the actually measured particle. Regarding the "never touch", gravity decreases with distance

The article does not mention it, but mothers with small children have to nurse babies every couple of hours, even at night. So given that in middle ages, families had "copious numbers of children" (quote from the article), it is f

That is the difference of specialised software in comparison to duct-taped solution like Teams. The first one has code to decide what is meaningful for the user in a given context, the second "just renders" the whole thing and sho

In retrospect, this gives me validation of why i always disliked to scan documents to PDF instead of to just JPEG. But large document archives are traditionally done with TIFF, and should still be done like that.

Some game engines (C++) do allocations in multiple memory areas. If some allocated memory is known to be needed only for the current frame, then it is allocated from that memory area. Then at the end of the frame the whole region is freed.

If particles behaved like software we could have a guess. It could be that time dilation is caused by some underlying physical system having a bottleneck, thus causing the slowdown. The underlying physical system has to evaluate all possibl

It is a standard practice to have a "login server" and a separate "game server". The login server generates the token, and notifies the game server to accept it. The login server handles a queue, and can throttle login a

I was like that too. Kids with C64 had plenty of games, and having better sound and graphics they just played games. I always advanced in coding when playing games became unrewarding/boring.

Splitting up objects attributes into separate arrays is required if you plan to work with those data on the GPU. I did it when working with Java and OpenCL, and wanted to efficiently access the same data trough Java objects and also in Open

Custom asset import is also much better than for Unreal, even making an asset exporter is easy. If for example the target is to re-make an old game in a modern engine, Unity is the better choice.

A viable solution for DX9 is using DXVK to emulate the old DX API under Vulkan, then add your own hooks into DXVK and transition to Vulkan in a more relaxed manner. Now DXVK does not support DX7, but a quick search found dgVoodoo2, which do

The quantum world constantly needs to agree on what the state of the macroscopic world is, there is a limit to the speed of that agreement happening, hence the speed limit on the spread of information (speed of light). There are contradicti

Windows is my offline desktop OS. I keep it around specifically because i want it to be that way. I'm fine with a locked down Android phone, as that is a different use-case. Microsoft already failed with its locked-down ARM Windows ver

You can do that with Substance. Store images in a library and procedurally generate textures at runtime.

I hold the view that programming patterns were invented as solutions to technical problems. It was then later that some theoretical "usefulness" or "elegance" was attached to them. One should know the technical benefits

Putting together an MMO requires knowledge how to make your software systems scale. Putting together a demo in Unreal is the exact opposite of that. That is why you see so many bad MMO-s, they can make a demo, but they could not make that s

Is it possible to control when and which variables are copied to the GPU? With solutions like this, the automatic copy of big arrays to the GPU can take more time than the kernel execution itself. I would want to use GPU programs this way,

The reason why the Spanish flu hit so hard in 1918 is that countries were not willing to quarantine people in fear that it would hurt their wartime economies.

At some clients you have to sign their development guidelines, and you have no choice but to use that notation. The rule at big enterprises is that new rules get added, but old, even archaic rules seldom get removed.

It is legal to do that. Its the question how tight your app was doing it? If you just send user actions and answers over HTTP back and forth using a technical user, that's like sharing the user. But if you have your own billing softwar

I think the logic is that the Web API's are for apps doing things you would otherwise do in SAP's own GUI. But i agree, SAP is not for those who are sensitive to license prices. Most commonly the solution is a third-party custom b

Just tried the extension, and it seems Pinyin is not supported. There is no "Transliteration" option, like there is for Japanese.

Seems like that they in a typical Microsoft style tried to link one product to another. I can imagine that the boss of the Edge browser argued to make their bookstore Edge-only, to promote the browser that way. And that move effectively doo
