I seem to get unpredictable, if infrequent, hard crashing when playing the PhyX-enabled game Control unless I set the Nvidia control panel option to run the physics on the CPU. System event viewer pointed to a failed assertion in the Nvidia

I think at the end of the day it was about forcing CSP-style concurrency on the majority of Google services. You can make a pretty good argument that CS programs don't do a great job at teaching multithreaded programming (even though i

When you add in the fact that it’s the only Intel desktop chip that supports AVX-512, Rocket Lake is pretty uniquely situated. The overclocking crowd may have turned up their nose (to be fair Comet Lake can have excellent memory latency and

Jetbrains products have started prompting if you'd like to open a new project in "safe" mode that disables the build tooling until you've had time to evaluate the project. So at least some IDEs are more cautious about th

Seems like we will need this sooner rather than later too with 500hz screens on the horizon. Strange since the new frame interpolation in DLSS 3 might bring us much closer to smooth motion on sample-and-hold displays.

If you have a small team of engineers and you need the added productivity of a more ergonomic language, then go ahead with Kotlin. In particular it's good for "lite-functional" style with OO mixed in, and your engineers get t

This is the correct answer to tackle power draw. Use Vsync/Adaptive Sync for fixed refresh monitors, or FreeSync/GSync for variable refresh monitors. For variable refresh rate monitors, it's best to use framerate limiters as

"I like Odin" - me too, just discovered Odin last week. The syntax is just about as perfect as a procedural language can get. I don't do C professionally and really only used for standard uni classes for algos, data structure

Wow, that's the exact opposite advice I got doing an internship for an oil company a decade ago. They emphasized shorter (and hidden + animated bullet) points so that audience has to listen and engage with you, the presenter. Otherwise

Everything in the feature-list for Gorm is bog-standard for C# and Java ORMs. Do they support any special query languages comparable to OData, LINQ, or JPA? Not wanting to get in a debate on whether you should use an ORM, but I just don&#x2

"I laugh every time Google's multibillion dollar AI shows me the same ads ..." So much this! I see 10 Google Fiber ads a day on YouTube even though I'm on their service and have an IP address they've assigned, lol.

I wouldn't. Sony has a track record of fostering creative excellence with their studio purchases. Microsoft can barely get their studios to release anything within a reasonable timeframe, and most releases tend to be good-but-not-great

Probably a lost cause at this point since most GUI toolsets are too object-oriented to comfortably wrap and call with Rust. Do a web view with Tauri instead.

Seems like the feedback would need to be reviewable in a "skip level" fashion for that to work.

Yeah between 900 mbps hard wired and 600 mbps over wifi, it actually might be possible to use all of your connection with 2+ machines in use. Good old cat5e can actually do 2.5 gbps these days with newer network cards (Intel Z590 and Z690 m

That's my point, we don't have much more than that. Even a 2-arg function is missing. You can supplement with something like Vavr or just write your own, but even then it's not pleasant to read "Function3<A, B, C, D&g

"Static generic types are lies" yes, and it doesn't matter that much. You got the safety at compile time and if you didn't do an unsafe cast then you preserved it. The issue with primitive types and boxing is certainly n

C# interfaces with methods, properties, and events is just so nice from a readability standpoint. I know we like to pretend that Java now has first-class functions since Java 8, but without easier to use functional signatures they're j

Agreed - I hoped my parenthetical would get that across but it's worth making it clear that Carmack isn't against different programming languages. He rather feels that being forced to use multiple languages on the same project bri

That’s what I was getting at. I hope they get some real feedback from Nvidia, AMD, Intel, Qualcomm, etc before making something that is really only useful at Google.

Not a C++ programmer, but I'd like to ask: Are Carbon's goals for interop here sufficient for most libraries and frameworks, or will bridge code be required in most cases? I see this about exceptions, for instance: "Carbon ma

You hit the out-of-pocket maximum for the year and then no longer pay anything on the bills. Most upper middle class jobs offer different plans with different maximums and monthly payments.

Neat trivia: Intel recently backported a microarchitecture to a bigger node to cope with fab issues at the time. The 11th gen "Rocket Lake" parts are a 14nm backport of the 10nm Ice Lake processors. From what I understand, doing s
