The old media is the content until the new medium discovers it's own content, not possible in previous mediums. The global action 3D MMO that is built and modified by the user is the USP of the final medium: programming the internet!

A72 is susceptible to Spectre because it has speculative execution I think. That article was written before the release of Pi 4: 5th Jan 2018 https://forums.raspberrypi.com/viewtopic.php?t=243416 You don't get to 2 Gfl

I always reply to these comments because well they are simply wrong for regular Raspberry clusters (this one is stupid though, but still fun to watch): 1) The Raspberry Pi 4 is THE cheapest 2Gflops/W computer ever made and probably tha

Renewables are bogus, they require too much energy to be manufactured, maintained and their lifespan is too short. Also as you might have noticed by now they don't produce anything when you need them the most! Energy has peaked permane

I know some of those words, but still I'm curious as to why OpenGL has not explored fixed for 3D graphics?

But the stdfix does not take advantage of SIMD style acceleration right?

Energy inflation has to happen, but it won't behave like the salary inflation of the 70s and 80s. Interest rates also behave differently when 99% of "money" is debt. Debt is GDP which is unrealized monetary inflation because

I think in retrospect we will see that covid, just like an inverted spanish flu, is more the result of the end of exponential growth (the end of WW1 being the beginning) than anything else. Energy is becoming very dirty and the spread in qu

I don't think async can make things faster but it can make them more energy efficient and the incentives for that is still close to none as our economic models reward waste until all EROEI is depleted. But you need to add the ability t

This needs to be seen in the broader context of peak everything and peak Moore's law in particular. Windows 11 can't run on Skylake from 2016, Windows 7 can't run on Kabylake from 2017. The model is broken because it is based

But wouldn't it be sweet to have SIMD acceleration for fixed point? Or is that something you can do with integers and SIMD today? Say 4x4 matrix multiplication?

True but it's also simpler and if you are building something to replace your car (replacing your bike is not interesting since you should use that instead) those are not disadvantages, see: http://elhjul.se

You should get an ebike that has regenerative breaking, not because it's safer/better but because it does not wear anything (except the tyres, hard to avoid that) down when breaking since it's magnetic.

This is a common misconception that originated from the inflation in the 70s and 80s where wages increased with the inflation. Actually the inflation WAS salary inflation (caused by rising interest rate when most money was not debt) much di

When I think about it, the memory security is probably the weakest point of WASM and probably also the reason nothing of value has come out of that initiative yet. How does WASM protect memory? Or maybe there is something valuable made in W

What a perfect example, have you even tried Java? I'm guessing you are coding for the client? C++ arrogance is the problem here. About the pipe dream of WASM there are 3 problems: 1) Compile times (both WASM and the browser) 2) If you
