I can't quite get over how good this looks....on a C64! This is one hell of an accomplishment. Honestly I expected to barely recognize the game, but instead it looks and feels exactly like the original VGA version I played as a kid - j

You can replace them. I forget the details on how I did it, but I recall doing this for a popular first person star wars game at the time. I replaced the DPMI runtime with a different one and the level load times skyrocketed in speed. My su

I loved TSRs - I wrote two of special note: stop_clock: All it did was stop the real time clock of the system from counting up when you pressed the alt key and started it again on a 2nd press. However, this was enough to stop the timer of a

The purpose is to enter the if block if and only if the pattern is matched. In your example, if "need_explicit_dep_argument_path" matches enum "DepArgumentRequirePath::NotNeeded" the if block will be entered (else it wil

I suspect the style and library code used matters greatly. Said differently, the constructs that Rust has make it _possible_ IMO to write code that is easier to read than equivalent C. Obviously even this depends, as the simplest use case w

Tbh it was like a year ago and I forget the specifics. You are welcome to look at the code, however: https://github.com/nu11ptr/flexstr/blob/master/flexstr/src/b... UPDATE: As I'm thinking

I noticed in one of my crates that Rust often cannot optimize "moves" away. I was in the unusual situation where I had to move around a very large stack buffer(typically in Rust they live on the heap). Instead of passing it back a

I think this is fine. The author has the right to do whatever they want with their own product. Bummer for me as I like this linker, but probably wouldn't use it if this change is made, as my small one person company wouldn't be a

FTX's UI was way faster and better. I will miss that. Coinbase UI is very laggy, slow, and even more of a memory hog.

As I understand it, their primary "trade" was to buy and hold FTT. Suddenly FTT's value went "poof" and the rest is is history.

Separation of money and state is definitely a worthwhile goal in my opinion. Everything else is more questionable.

Elon isn't red or blue. He has leaned to voting dem in the past and now leans to voting gop for various reasons. It could change tomorrow. In the end, he thinks what he thinks and doesn't care how it aligns to a "party".

FTX was #2 globally. Binance is #1. I'm not sure exactly what ranking mechanism is used to determine that, but that seems to be consensus from a variety of sources.

Agreed, if you have a finite amount of resources and "positively" favor one group over another, this automatically disfavors another group. When skin color is used for this "positive" favor, we have a term for the impact

I personally think Rust should be included in this group. It isn't technically a functional language, but it has a "functional flair" with many of the same benefits as functional programming provides, and with some of the fea

I love GraphViz. Many are saying the layout isn't that great and there are better options, etc. etc. and I have no doubt that for some use cases, that might be true. However, GraphViz "just works" for me. Every time I build a

Made with electron? or what tech stack?

by nu11ptr 4y ago
Interesting - it runs rather nice for an electron app IMO. Also, the memory utilization isn't terrible (so far that I have noticed).

by nu11ptr 4y ago
Looks nice and based on my initial quick tests seems rather lean, and yet it is cross platform. Can I ask what the tech stack looks like? development language(s)? Cross platform UI library?
