Using integers as allocation strategy (as in the referenced use case) will fail when slots are reused.

There are convenient libraries for working with such data structures. Unsafe should be relegated for highly specific us cases.

This is a tricky subject. Rust being a low-level library, adding something means inherently choosing a preferred approach to a problem rather than another, which may be disagreeble. The consequence is that there would be still the sub-sub-d

> The "safe" solution recommended by the rustaceans was to use integers as references to the data in a vec or hashmap This is not correct advice; not sure why you've been given this answer. There are a couple of solutions.

The title can be interpreted in two ways. It could be interpreted as the cost to the end payer (either patient or insurance). In this case, it's clickbait, because it doesn't represent what the patients pay, but still, it causes a

I'd be a big fan if that worked, but I haven't found an open remote desktop solution on Linux that works out of the box and acceptably fast¹, to the point that I have to use proprietary software to perform remote desktop sessions

Post your exact numbers. I've done wall-power measurements with different Ryzen models.

Interesting. My 3950x draws (wall power) approximately 67/68W in idle. I'm on a Bxxx chipset and a 6600 XT, which should both consume little in idle mode, and 3 SSD, which consume little. I haven't read much, but it t seems t

Sarcasm is not actually correct. An ECS is not an RDBMS, because in the latter is based on row-based storage, while the former is column-based. The storage part of ECSs could actually be considered a form of columnar db. For example, lockin

After a feature branch is merged, its content is candidate for any bisect. If the branch was squashed, bisecting will be less effective, compared to the same branch, merged without squashing (at the conditions of the commits being self-stan

How do squash commits maintain bisectability? They do compress history, and granularity is lost, so one can bisect, but on large batches of code (to be specific, as large as merges; if a team adopts small merges, the granularity is retained

TDP is correlated with consumption, so a higher TDP is indicative of how much the CPU will burn in general.

Can you give some details (components and consumption)? I'm interested in the topic, and I've done some wall measurements as well, in the past and present.

It's possible, but the job market is not reflecting this. The popular languages (JS, Java, Golang, Python) are immensely more popular than Rust in terms of job offers.

No, it was the Rusty Jam. Independently of Bevy's progress, a parallel ECS is not a good choice for a prototype-like game project.

by pizza234 4y ago
Jams can be very fad-driven. I'm not familiar with this jam, but Rust's latest game jam was dominated by Bevy, which is a very bad choice for quickly writing a game.

Following semantic versioning, libraries are essentially allowed to change very liberally on 0.x, so it makes sense to reach 1.0 only once the crate/API is stable.

Plugging a DOS game to an SDL(2) library won't "just work". Some concepts are inherent to the hardware and the O/S. Hardware example: EGA (not the case of doom, but of other, slightly older games) uses bitplanes, it&#x27

The top sibling parent has the correct explanation, however, I'll expand a bit. Games prior to Quake were bound to specific O/Ss and/or hardware components. DOOM was still bound to DOS AFAIK, so it's not portable without
