You are conflating multiple things here. Marching through volumes for volumetric effects are not going to be made faster by SDFs generally because you need to march through the videos from an eye ray and march back to the light sources whi

I've never seen this actually be a problem other than people complaining about buttons looking different. If you are worried about the shading on your buttons then you must have had all your problems solved already.

Why do I keep seeing people say this? People have been doing this for 30 years. Fltk will let you do it in 700KB with no dependencies. (100KB if you're crafty). Juce, Qt, pyQt, opengl+imgui, opengl+nanogui all work well. There is als

I'm not sure I would call 'using your entire CPU to do trivially small heap allocations' a pattern unless you mean that it's a pattern you see when people wonder why their software is so slow.
161.
by BubRoss 6y ago
Their software seems to be mostly just allocating lots of memory. It seems like they are comparing language speed if you don't know the first thing about optimizing ( which is to not allocate memory nonstop)
162.
by BubRoss 6y ago
If either of those affects performance there are WAY too many memory allocations happening.

You are going to have to link a source for that. The A55 is claimed to be 15% more power efficient than the A53 while the A72 is 3-4 times as fast.

I don't know what that person is doing with a pi 3, but my experience is that retro pi works well but modern video or web browsing is not going to hold up.

by BubRoss 6y ago
This has an A55, which I don't think is competitive with the raspberry pi 4 A72. The pi 4 was a huge breakthrough because it has a multi core out of order cpu and starts at $35. Something that people would buy over the pi 4 will have

Viable form of money is not what is being talked about. Crypto currencies can have strong properties of ideal money. My comment said store of value which isn't the same thing. > Long-term, Bitcoin is a Store of Value. Repeating an

You have a lot of misconceptions going on here. First, bitcoin is not a good store of value, that was just a propaganda line that was fed to people when it was obvious the transaction throughout was being artificially constrained. Crypto c

200 million per year is a lot of money for anyone. Also if the global ad market doubles, wouldn't facebook capture a lot of that? Also how much more is vietnam growing than other countries?

Qt and widget based programs are absolutely not difficult to make. I don't know where this comes from. They are fast and responsive by default instead of laggy and sluggish on a many core xeon loaded with ram. Even using PyQt and em

Why would people put their money in a crippled medium of exchange like bitcoin or somewhere that their money is guaranteed to inflate away when neither is necessary? It isn't even a difficult problem to make a crytocurrency that doesn&

by BubRoss 6y ago
This is already a well worn mistake. Inflation is good for the entity that controls a currency. Why would someone want to convert their money into a currency that is meant to inflate?

There was a language called clay that was basically C with templates, operators, destructors and move semantics (with better syntax). It produced C ABI compatible compilation units and could pretty much slide into a C project. It used llvm

The bizarre part is that if you mention to the people making visual studio that every version is slower and has more latency and lag in the interactivity, they seem to have no idea what you are talking about and ask what specific situation
