For context to other readers, Negitivefrags is talking about Path of Exile[0] and seems to be downplaying the success GGG has achieved in the last few years. The regular release of compelling content has driven PoE into a great position as

Allow me to shill for Concourse[0]. It's oriented around 'tasks' composed into 'pipelines'. Each task either fails or succeeds with the yaml pipeline definition providing hooks into either state to proc other tasks.

TSX is actually relatively bare for what it offers as transactional memory. IBM's Power8 and Blue Gene are significantly robust in that area. For numbers, here's some for Thread-Level Speculation [0], though simulated and not agai

So, ctrl-f for d3 yielded no results in an article about SVG... If you want to make impressive visualizations in very little code, I suggest you look at d3js. Here's the start of a series of fantastic tutorials done by Mike Bostock, fo

A management game for arpgs. I don't like spending 8+ hours on a build only to have it die to something stupid in hardcore, so I'm trying to condense the experience into 15 to 20 minutes. The core gameplay loop is making choices f

Personally, the appeal of electron is that most of my knowledge for writing web apps is immediately portable to desktop apps as well. Using the same tooling, language, and with more control over the environment, you can build good enough ap

Not to take away from the content, but I do cringe whenever anything is installed by piping curl into bash. Yes, I understand that's exactly the provided way to install GVM and that this is supposed to be on a throwaway VPS, but this i

I read up to Excession and stopped. At the pace I was going, there was going to be a year of Culture, then nothing new from it forever. It's such a shame that Banks died but damn, did he leave a mark. If anyone is in the same position,

The 'optimal' store really depends on the type of data and queries you're targeting. [0] is probably a good place to start for comparisons. I'd also recommend the other reading in my previous post, but that is much longe

The 'store' portion buys you a lot of raw performance because its modern architecture friendly. tl;dr, frame it as the row store being an array of structures while the column store is a structure of arrays. Then, your basic way of

If you're interested in reading more about the general design of column stores, I can recommend [0] as a great place to start. It also compares design decisions made in MonetDB to other column stores. If you want to look at simple code

Given that they address it in their statement, I'm interested to see how their FPGA offerings develop in the next few years. FPGAs have a brutal learning curve but sit in a yet unscaled power efficiency niche. Could we see FPGA VPS in

That's absolutely fantastic! Given the status of all of the social media, I assumed the game was dead and source lost forever. Instead we get the game in active development and completely open!

Sane javascript in Unreal 4 is definitely interesting, however, take a look at the repo's owner. This has a lot more staying power as a portion of the platform given the fact that NCSOFT, producer of Guild Wars and Aion, is the company

Did you try increasing the amount of cubes? There's a dropdown at the top. React drops to ~30fps for me on 1500 cubes, direct update stays at a solid 60fps. The delta increases as cube count increases.
