It's definitely not uncommon. I think it's more of a motivation problem. Not all students are eager to learn. They may not be interested in the subject for whatever reason. It's hard to teach someone who isn't open to it

Is a bare SoC a computer? You can poke the pins to provide power and I/O. The interesting thing about this project is that this computer can function independently within a credit card sized space.

.NET typically loads dozens of DLLs at boot. It needs to resolve references for almost everything before it can run any code. It doesn't take that long to boot so I have my doubts but they have surely optimized it a lot there.

Not sure how it's comparable to Itanium at all? ARM is not a new architecture. It's not even a new architecture for Windows.

It's like transcoding a video into a GIF so that it can render everywhere. It will probably work but it's not really a serious option.

I meant slower vs. WebGL rendering, which requires JS. Each triangle is rendered as a DOM node. There can be thousands of triangles in a single model. The gallery has been updated with more models. Compare the same model in PolyCSS vs. Thre

I'm all for experimentation but getting rid of JS in this case almost certainly results in worse performance. You're trading a bit of load time for significantly slower runtime/rendering.

But why not use WebGL? It's widely available, more efficient, and can render at a much higher quality. https://polycss.com/gallery/?model=2843066616 https://threejs.org/examples/#webgl_animati

Still doesn't make any sense. Visual Studio (not Code) has been available since the 90s. The free Community edition has existed since 2014. Sublime Text, Atom, etc. came during that time and did just fine. > I mean how much would so

SQLite is able to handle tens of thousands of write transactions per second on modern hardware. That is probably similar to or more than your real, multi-user, concurrent RDBMS.

Sounds great for you! What about everyone else? Many people prefer to get new devices so that they can be covered by Apple Care. That completely removes Linux as an option because Asahi Linux never supports any of the recent models.
