Using "personal goals" maybe be helpful feedback for the creator to understand things they had not considered from their own perspective. In this case, it might point to the goal of the project not being as obvious as it might be

Yep, JIT is way more viable (and being done) with Ruby.

Guessing it's a bunch of trial and error right now - these systems are pretty hard to predict in general and I'm not aware of a whole lot of research into closed ecological systems. Which is a shame really. A self-sustaining syste

The issue is: Can I write something in scratch in this language 1) at all and 2) with some amount of daily progress. Writing data-structures is a test case of my ability to thing and program in the context of Rust. The point is that it&#x

You can probably get away with a $1k PC build these days, and the HoloLens itself is pretty expensive now as a devkit ($3k IIRC). The HoloLens is great, but it doesn't really seem to be designed for gaming. Games are cool to demo in AR

What's the methodology? JIT warmup taken into account or no? The memory use does seem excessive though. Perhaps a little too much code bloating due to the polymorphic inline caches?

Where's this ~1ms overhead for an additional asset on a HTTP2 connection coming from? Do you have a reference to a benchmark or something that demonstrates it?

Wow, even HN has been infected! JK, but Rift tracking is great too. For "room-scale" with good tracking you basically need 3 sensors (you can buy additional sensors). For some games that cause heavy occlusion due to needing to lie

The condescension isn't too helpful here unfortunately (is it ever?). You could have made your initial response a bit less condescending by saying something like: The comment mentions "Landauer's principle", which provi

Thanks, I was confusing myself there. Obviously you would really want to use SubstrateVM in development to get that sweet fast startup - I'm just blind to the startup time angle since I use the zeus gem to keep my application always al

Templating can't be the craziest thing in Rails. In fact, I can't remember the last time it gave me any trouble. Are you just talking about how ERB specifically works, or how templates are invoked/rendered? Or is there just s

It's right now, with 1.0. Just don't use libraries that require nightly. Libraries are not the language. The language is stable. If your requirement is stability, then use the stable version of rust with stable libraries. That&#x2

Well you'd only use SubstrateVM when deploying to production, so I don't know why anyone wouldn't want to "worry about that precompilation step". During development it should be irrelevant. Or am I missing something

Also, eye-tracking + foveated rendering will severely reduce the load. Once that works reliably, you just need the cheap, super-high PPI, low-latency screens (which might almost exist today, though at high cost due to lack of a mass-market)

For the casual gamer it may not be interesting, though that depends on the learning curve - eg regular sports can be pretty challenging and physically exhausting, yet people play them casually. But in particular competitive gaming and espor

Ever played instagib with a low gravity mod in a regular FPS? It can be fun, but the gameplay becomes pretty limited, and I imagine the moon physics being similar in a VR FPS. Maybe projectile weapons only would make it work better, or the

Thanks for the article, it makes a lot of sense. Note that in this book, the doomsday scenario is predicted to happen 2 years in the future, so it's not quite the same as a natural disaster that has already happened. So I don't th

Then the problem seems to be the colleagues rather than the creation of frameworks. I'm happily following all this framework turnover while totally ignoring it for actual work. To be fair, I have had colleagues want to switch to some n

Just curious, what issues did you have that were solved by an independent projection application?

I'd really like to use clippy, but for production use I don't want to use anything but the stable Rust channel, whereas clippy apparently needs nightly Rust. Maybe I'm being overly cautious (OneSignal seems to do fine with ju

Nah, they'd ignore that, if they even notice. You have to forcibly make them take notice. Like take over a galaxy and make all the stars in it blink in synchrony in some sort of code and establish a communication channel.

I agree, but I also think a significant fraction would not. I'd expect a lot of markets to crash and burn, as people quit for various reasons, with a lot of knock-on effects. I'm not sure how it would turn out, I just feel like th

Ahh cool. I ask because Seveneves has a much rosier (overly so in my opinion) end game, in terms of world powers cooperating and most of humanity also doing so, despite knowing for certain that almost everyone will die.
