Thanks for the interesting article on the atlantic, I had to go through google to read it, the usual sites to unlock it didn't work. There may be trouble ahead: https://www.statista.com/statistics/591435/house

The point is the comparison shows that previous generations were wealthier at a given age, not how much Gen X (<=24 years) or Gen Z(<=24 years) held at that point in time.

What formed your understanding? My understanding is that the opposite is true, I've read numerous articles to that effect, here's but one example: https://www.visualcapitalist.com/charting-the-growing-genera... On

There's a rather long article here, from Sun, now owned by Oracle - probably easier to start from the conclusion and work back! https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E77782_01/html/E77791/z4002282485...

Please don't use amp links. The m1 gpu is broadly equivalent to a gtx 1650 in a host of benchmarks. This is getting less than half the fps a gtx 1650 does at these settings, and I am being charitable. I don't know why you are look

Rosetta is a known quantity of approximately 20% of a drop. DXVK can do about a 20% performance drop in certain situations, and perform better than that in others. This is at about 50% performance drop translating DX12 to Metal, on top of t

don't confuse Rosetta with this game porting toolkit.

by eliasmacpherson 3y ago
I was referring to the performance of DXVK not its feature support. Expecting DXVK to do Rosetta itself is beyond ridiculous.

by eliasmacpherson 3y ago
If you want to set the bar that low for fantastic, be my guest. Fps per dollar, any metric I can think of is lousy. You've not convinced me. Was impressed by Rosetta, but not this game porting toolkit, for the record.

by eliasmacpherson 3y ago
Well if there are no changes made to the game whatsoever, then it has to be using Rosetta. Fantastic would be DXVK approximate levels of performance hit. This is far short of that.

Fantastic would be 25fps, this isn't there yet.

That too, I had no idea, am so impressed. I use your music-synthesizer-for-android code nearly as much as FM7. :-)

So say I wanted to try out a workload on various sql databases, mariadb, sqllite, postgres - is there a database that will act as a front end to them? I find this 'support for pluggable database engines' intriguing. Not least beca

Counter anecdote. I've met at least one hyper productive pessimist. I haven't grilled all the hyper productives I know for positivity or pessimism.

if this means BRender is open source too, and I get to play the first Carmageddon with 3DFX Glide on conveniently, happy days. I can hear the CD spin up Fear Factory already.
