PPC was great with the G4, it was much better than the P3. Intel with P3 based-Core Duos won against the G5.

One of the best perf tests for C# it's to run the Switch emulator against some legal Switch demo game dump.

With Lisp you can use iterative algos and get that under a second too. SBCL can be ridiculously fast; and if you optimize the compilation for integers... the speed gets really close to your solution.

I did factorials even under KLISP 23 with cons cells as fake integers: https://t3x.org/klisp/22/index.html Dog slow but the old n270 netbook (32 bit) handles big factorials >20 fine, and OFC it's instant u

Ori B. it's a great programmer, he fixed a small bug on the earlier GeFS on 9front versions in no time. It worked fine in my n270 based Atom netbook under 9front, so it will run perfectly well under OpenBSD in a near future. It isn&#x2

Rust wasn't made to replace C, C is to be there at low level and as a glue code for everything. Rust was made to replace C++ because the language it's a behemoth, it tries to do everything and the syntax it's a Lovecraftan ni

Eh, wait. I remember the NeoGeo having a m68k CPU's AND some kind of VPU/PPU a la NES but for 16 bit machines, a 24 bit one. Far more powerful than an Amiga or a Sega Megadrive (Genesis in the US).

C64: https://github.com/jkotlinski/durexforth It's impressive what you can do in the C64 with just Forth instead of C64 Basic. For Speccy/ZX80/ZX81, I'm pretty sure they ported the Jupyter ACE one,

BSOD's on Win95 and Win98 tell me otherwise. And with DOS... heh.

TBH I don't have many problems on that and even changing clothes on public beaches in Spain neither. I've gotten far more aroused with a nerdy/metalhead woman talking about geeky stuff (and her outfit) than just average nake

Hehe, kinda like Canal+ in Europe scrambled with Nagravision where the whole image was a fuzzy outline of snow and b/w shifting striples. Back in the day tons of people decoded it under PC's and a TV tuner with Wilma/MoreTV u

I love both Forth and Lisp but SectorLisp it's far better. Also, for a small demo, check Eforth under Subleq/Muxleq: https://github.com/howerj/subleq edit subleq.fth/muxleq.fth and set these options to 1

I barely am an amateur in Go, (and my C skills are among TCPL 2nd ed.) because C it's everywhere and it's almost "mandatory" to know, I'm far more proficient in Scheme and Common Lisp. Porting Nomadnet is not easy t

Having Nomadnet in Go would be a great thing to have (and no more Rust dependency because of Python-Cryptography).

Hybrid system, actually. No 100% pure system survived, ever. Be capitalist, communist, or technology philosophy bound. The GNU project tried to expand Unix with ITS editors (Emacs), utilities, ITS'like freedom and Lisp (Emacs and Schem

Audio tracks and WAV/AU files weren't actually decoded, but straightly send to the sound card as bits. That's it, a command like cat file.wav > /dev/dsp Would just work under Unix (/dev/au
