Any ideas on what the "right way" would be in this case? To me the solution seems the most straightforward.

When I was a kid, that still used to be the norm on farms. There were farm cats and house cats. The farm cats were there to kill rodents and otherwise minded their own buisness. You could not just take them up, they would have bitten you. I

I think it was meant as a joke, so for anyone else reading it, no it is not actually double-buffering.

"I still don't know why he tried to stand in my way all the time" Maybe he did not try to stand in your way, but was simply worried: "saying I was a zombie who wasn't part of the family anymore."

"Are you sure about this?" No. And I hope to be wrong. I will give it another try then, but I was using SharedArrayBuffer and I was getting explicit errors about this limitation.

I find the new trend interesting, to sell the game on Steam, but have a link to Github with the actual source. So free for developers and people who care to find out. Thats fair, I think, but I would prefer if the direct donation model woul

"Look at how quora tried and failed hard" They made lots of bad choices, leading to users (including me) leaving the plattform. And in general I don't think that you need that many wikipedias, my point was, that donation fund

Chromebooks with original chromeOS work awesome under the hood, fast startup, no standby/resume glitching, very long battery life - but the user facing side of the OS is just horrible. And with using stock software, you are very limite

Wikipedia is not funded by ads for example. Lots of other sites neither. So I would say, not the whole internet would go away without ads, but probably the worst parts and what remains is worth visiting.

"Also sometime a single line painted on the road is enough for a start." I have seldom seen this solution get respected by cars. It is better than nothing, but it is a weak start, when the goal is save cycling.

I only used it for experimentation so far, but I abondoned it, after I learned, that only one worker can be the active user of a SharedArrayBuffer. So they cannot be shared at the same time? Sharing seems to mean, now A uses it, than gives

Yes I know, but 6 times slower is pretty bad, so when someone presents the modern way, he should probably include a warning, that modern not necesarily means better. Because those who used the old way before, know the limits and worked arou

"What's it for?" Apparently not for you, but people who want to build such a specific game. Not every engine is general purpose.

One use case I have, which I do not like, but there is literally no other way: Communicating with workerthreads. I so much would like to pass references of big readonly objects towards them - but no, full copy it is, for every thread.

"Theres a small custom function I use for this which has much better performance." Can you enlighten us? JSON.parse and stringify, or customly copying what is needed? (the fastest solution to my knowledge)

Ok, yes I do, but I think mega Tsunamies do pile up a bit more? And the scenario in my head was many impacts in a close area - and the resulting waves then interacting with each other with turbulence.

Sadly I can confirm, structuredClone is still not performant. At least on my various devices. I just did a test again with 40000 times cloning a simple object and JSON.parse/stringify was 6 times faster than structured cloning. Since I

You can also have that cheaper already. But having it stable and reliable - will take some time and possibly more money, depending on your definition of reliable.

Ordinary waves travelling through the ocean, mostly yes. But when 2 Tsunamis crash into each other, you can bet, that there is lots of turbulence and energy lost and they wont have the same height afterwards.

Well, but the basic assumption is, the more surface of the asteroid is exposed, the more will burn up in the sky. And that is pretty solid physic and should be valid. Also most of the surface on earth is water. And one big impact would crea

Hungary was also way more liberal, than east germany for example, which practiced Stalinism till the very end (but still we have people nostalgic for that).
