I wonder if the guys used a functional programming language.

> However, every time I see "faster than C" almost always a bit of trickery/wordplay is involved. yeah, it's almost like those "$something in only $few lines of $programming_language" posts where you get highly obfuscated code to read.

That's pretty cool. I'm a programmer and have 0 clue about animation and design - but the UI makes it pretty straight format for me to create some primitive animations. (Which I can then include into my Mac app via a Webkit view).

I guess the dynamics for something that is offered for free may differ from products that are actually sold.

you could translate that "za kwote" snippet as: ... for sale for the amount of 17k BTC.

Yeah, my last PC around 2004 came with Norton. Though I consider myself pretty computer savvy (C programmer) I couldn't remove that thing without reinstalling windows. Maybe it's different now?

I guess my paranoia pays out for once ;) I joined G+ with a throwaway google account.

I'm sure they still will be used. What I'm unsure about is if computers will be used.

wow, I'm from europe and 18 years seem to me for what he did just cruel. even 3 years would be hard. that's why I wouldn't want to live in the US. the criminal system is out of control. if you "fuck up" a little bit or they just get the wro

If you can live with all that business bullshit on "hacker" news you certainly can live with some security related data dumps.

wow, you rally need to improve the performance.

with _some_ coding skills and _some_ art skills you won't get far in the gaming industry. the jobs there are highly specialized - you need to be good at either coding or art. though with being somewhat good at both you can go the indie rout

Ah, I love virtual machines/cpus :] Some weeks ago I found out that you can create pointers to goto labels in C (gcc and clang that is - it's a non standard extension afaik). I then implemented a super small subset of the 6502 to test how m

See, I wouldn't trust say my source code to AT&T or Facebook. I already get a fishy feeling with them having some of my pictures. Drop Box on the other hand is a private data storage service (at least I thought they were) - where I expe
