I think we're all missing the forest because all the cores are in the way: The contention on that memory means that only segregated non-cooporative as in not "joint parallel on the same memory atomic" will scale on this hardw

Cooling has to be tied to the mass, and without pictures of that you cannot sell this thing. Here is the best way I found to solve passive cooling with mechanical protection for civilian use: http://move.rupy.se/file/pi

The life cycle is related to the solutions quality. Code that is well executed never dies. Specially when hardware has peaked. I'm biased, but C (client) and Java (server) will never have substitutes. The reason I can be absolute is th

Because it's passively cooled, completely silent. And you can repair it with standard parts quickly. And you can run open software on it...

While I agree that Java is much better than most people think, it's not an alternative on low power systems for clientside work. Try running Java Minecraft on a Raspberry 4 and you understand how. The why is complicated but the solutio

Many things you don't know are Java are and they are VERY widely used. Java simply wont go away because it works. For serverside it's a nobrainer, but also for client if you have a niche consumer base. Average joes don't unde

Problem with pico-8 is lua needs like 2MB RAM and it's too slow for a microcontroller. Keep in mind this thing is the graphics card... the framebuffer takes up alot of those 264K... But the original Celeste was ported to the Picosystem

Because it would be the best choice and it's old. You cannot sell C/Java. Computers are now reaching the maturity lightbulbs had when they artificially limited the burn time to 1000 hours. Personally I going back to C and JavaSE&#

Where is the "servlet" implementation on this? Can "servlets" access the same memory directly/atomically at the same time across many cores without locking?

I think the first step is to explain to people that C++ is just C with more stuff, the original is way simpler and the ONLY real reason to use a C++ compiler is that most dependencies that you need (OpenGL, OpenAL etc.) uses C++ by default.

I call this base-32 and it uses 5-bit. I'm considering using it for my distriuted DNS 2.0... 6-bit would only give you 5 character names but with 0-9 and A-Z if you wished (although that is really confusing for names...)

I look up collisions every time I generate an ID and it's also sychronized when the node is broadcasted on the global cluster. UUIDs use time and origin to make things unique something that is both an advantage and also a problem, say

I use secure random base-58 16-digit keys as primary keys in my distributed database, as long as you keep collisions rare with enough entropy (58^16 = 16400152899115243850138976256) you don't need to worry too much, generating a new ID

I discovered that if you limit yourself to a-z and 1-6 you can put 6 letter usernames into an 32-bit integer with 2 bits to spare. And that gives you 1 billion combinations, sure most of them are garbage but still. http://fuse.ru
