It will be interesting if any major game engines pop up using Rust as the core language, or even Go. C++ has been the king of highly optimised game engines for so long, I can't help but feel it has become so entrenched in the industry

Out of interest, how are you getting your data changes at the NodeJS level to automatically propagate to the Meteor clients? Or by "NodeJS" do you mean you're using the full Meteor stack?

You've got to wonder, does matrix multiplication happen so often and is it so inconvenient to call as a function that it's worth complicating the syntax? I'm really not sure about this one.

My introduction to programming was before I was 10, my dad showed me some simple stuff in Basic and bought me some Basic picture books which contained source code for entire games which you could type in yourself and run. Those books were e

Usually calling something the best is entirely subjective, but I believe due to the closed ecosystem surrounding Visual Studio, competitors don't stand a chance regardless of how bloated and cumbersome it is. It's also interesting

Was it not an option to make a public statement to back down on the stance? I can't help but feel this is entirely unpragmatic.

I'd call that the static compiling approach, not just the Go approach. It's possible to statically compile in a wide range of languages.

It's incredibly relevant to the half of us here who care more about technology than acquisitions.

Somehow I don't thing a battle of attrition between Google and Amazon would end any time soon.

I'm patiently waiting to see if Rust can solve two of the three points in the "when to use it" section without sacrificing significant performance.

Nearly all thought processes deal in abstract concepts directly without being wrapped in language. Language is a transport mechanism for sharing these abstract concepts from one one brain to another, not for processing in the mind. The ide

Mojombo[0] commented[1] that it won't be either closed or open source, but "somewhere inbetween" to make it easy for them to charge for it. [0] https://github.com/mojombo [1] http://discuss.atom.io

My hope is that the core of Atom isn't so bloated with GitHub integration and that integration is optionally available through the plugin management system. I'm of the type who prefers to use the text editor just for code and oth

As was speculated in the other thread the beta looks like it will be closed, there's a "request and invite" form on the page. Others noted that the source mentioned "free during beta", I certainly hope that's n

This is already possible using gitgutter in both Vim and ST, and I've never noticed an impact on performance.

Only in theme. The layout looks very similar to ST, particularly the menu.

The ST builds mysteriously stopped recently (ST3 beta and dev), which is a bit ominous.

When will big companies value personal information enough to encrypt it along with credit card information and hashing passwords? We encrypt all personal information at Miniand, and I do realise it makes it very difficult to query data, bu

OOP doesn't necessarily imply inheritance, I use composition quite a lot in JS because it tends to make code much more readable for others. Complex object hierarchies in prototype-based languages can become very confusing very quickly

You could just as easily argue against using salutations at all; the stance taken in the article could arbitrarily be taken from a number of different stances each with arguably similar weights. I don't think it's right to force y

Which is a clone of an old Palm Pilot game called SFCave: http://www2.sunflat.net/en/games/palmcave.html There is nearly nothing original in this game, not only was the core game play stolen, but most of the asset

I regularly donate to the EFF, their cause is the most important to me at the moment.
