I downgraded my GPUs to passively cooled 1030 with DDR5 memory. There is ZERO point to playing games that need more power.

The management ecochamber will push rust until their faces turn blue. Until they rewrite mrustc in rust everyone using rust is one dependency up. The truth is we don't need rust, either you are making a server and then Java is the lang

What engine are you using. Did you go for tick based and/or deterministic physics?

I took responsability and over 10 years I fixed the bugs. It hosts a MMO with 350.000 customers at 10x perf./watt than all AAA studios.

It's not culture, it's the fact that Java enables huge structures to run that has become it's problem. Listen to James in the last chapters of this interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IT__Nrr3PNI Just

So cache invalidation? If core 1 writes to something core 2 has in L123? But who is responsible for that "correction", core 1 or core 2 or a combination?

When would cores talk to cores like this is measuring? Would two cores reading and writing to the same memory have this contention?

I downgraded my GPUs to passively cooled 1030 with DDR5 memory. My bet is all mainstream games will work on those at 60 FPS for eternity, because of peak performance per watt and energy costs rising.

Fitting username, when you pay the debt to the past, with debt from the future and completely ignore the present, things inevitably look great; until they don't for eternity.

I made my own monitor in 500 lines of code. It uses a HTTP client to poll all instances every minute which return /proc/stat so that I can see how much CPU they use: http://monitor.rupy.se

I host my own videos, 206 is the HTTP code I implemented in my own web server to get that to work, an example: http://talk.binarytask.com/task?id=4064110776042269443

I built my multiplayer web client with vanilla: http://fuse.rupy.se There is nothing like being on the lowest common denominator, but you can understand why browsers are not evolving past this point.

Everyone that can should host their own HTTP/1.1, DNS and SMTP at home on a battery backed Raspberry 1, 2 or Zero if they have an external IP. Preferably with their own implementations, I have implemented all 3. To host anything beyond

We already have Server Sent Events over HTTP/1.1 so yes this was completely unneccessary. The TCP head-of-line problem makes HTTP/2 a solution ONLY for people that abuse the bandwidth in the first place (read big centralized coorp

Is there no way to avoid kernel copying all network data? I understand the frustration of having the network driver crash but could it not be run in a way that it doesn't bring down the OS? It seems to me Java would have a no-brainer a

Is anything like this for networking done or in the works?

Ok, yes you are right... rotational inertia is the challenge in Rocket Drone for sure.

by bullen 4y ago
There is something very frustrating with the spin inertia, almost impossible to regain control when things start rotating... Here is a tip for a recent C64 game that uses one rocket like lunar lander: https://csdb.dk/release

Wind, solar, nuclear and hydro can not be built with electricity at scale, you need coal, oil and gas to mine and melt steel (1500C) and burn lime stone (1500C for 3 hours) for concrete. Also you cannot make food with electricity at scale;

Dead trees (coal, oil and gas) are the master resource, and we have peaked globally. Electricity is the only energy that removes quality from the equation (electrons are all the same). https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series&#x2F

Well many-to-many IS the point of the internet. Think MMO here, which is the "metaverse" thing they keep talking about. Simulating 3D reality over the network IS the ONLY thing humans can do now that doesn't HAVE to burn all

This was true until 2017 when I became a C programmer. They are fine until they need to scale and iterate quickly without downtime.

No Erlang can't share memory between cores atomically. Erlang can only scale 1-to-1 things like phone calls. Java is the ONLY language that scales many-to-many with stable non-blocking IO and concurrent parallelism that shares memory a

The only problem Java has is experienced C programmers don't build servers from scratch with it yet. Once they take that responsibility, the debate will be over because: "While I'm on the topic of concurrency I should mention

I came to the same conclusion last year: C (client) and Java (server) are the final languages. To fragment the industry with more languages is a hidden cost that wont end well for anyone. KWh is approaching $1, prepare by choosing the prope

My trick is to 1) bend them outwards to lessen the pressure and 2) reuse the pads that soften over time.
