Of course that doesn't apply to games anymore but to high performance computing. Systems for gaming vary too much for that to be of any importance. Maybe if you are doing it for the consoles, but then you have to optimize each individu

I was curious about this as I have never done any such testing, so I wrote a simple c program. The object was a struct with a size of a typical game object( 100B ), then I trashed the memory by doing a lot of malloc/free using the size

Frames per seconds is better in almost every way. When you use it to watch movies it is better since a normal human understands seconds but not what a frame is. In gaming, frame times usually vary quite a lot, and the average, which is fps,

As an obfuscated c example I was expecting portable code. Anyone hoping that as many people as possible try their code should aim for that.

HN got really trigger happy in the last few weeks. That part of the comment only is partially correct, and not was even the main point of my comment; what I really meant was that it doesn't belong in windows, and the main point was tha

Doesn't run correctly under windows. The code relies on the system call "stty cbreak", which is linux specific. 'stty' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. I would

This is why I don't like April F. Everything has to be rechecked/researched x times. The 60 minutes article is definitely not AF and I doubt my link is also.

The strangest outcome of all of this is that Bill O'Reilly's actually made some sense for the first time in history. http://youtu.be/Pt0ot1LgXZQ?t=1m3s

Seriously, what are they waiting for. I'm not a teenager anymore, but If this was a serious app I would totally go catch a few, granted as a joke. And kids would go crazy over this, every single one already has the pokedex( smartphone

Comment on the blog that got deleted: I did a similar test in C and have gotten very similar results. When N is around 4000 the trashing version starts to differ substantially. A 3x difference can already be seen when N is 1000. This mean

Note the phrase might as well . The example was a stab at how you can't make such assumptions.

You don't know that, they might as well changed their opinion and are now too embarrassed to speak about it. I think a lot of people were acting with pure emotion. Once the surprise subsides the logical reasoning kicks in and you get t

I appreciate the response. I'm still skeptical about the actual energy usage. If the % more kinetic energy applies equally to battery energy usage.

This is exactly the reason they responded. By changing the code quietly, they would implicate themselves. An official PR statement like this is obligatory. What is more probable, that they a lying, or that the random generator generated not

Look at the code as the author suggests; you will notice that a part of the code( ~40 lines ) is identical, including the comments.

I think for Carmack the situation is the same as when Id was acquired by Zenimax. So for anyone curious just look what happened then. He doesn't care, as long he can work on the stuff he wants to and he left Id because he couldn't

How will assert help if the failure happens in production code? Wouldn't it be better if the error was logged to a file.

It is very easy to win. You shouldn't be able to select 2 or 4. The decision should be random and that would be fair like the original. The easiest solution is to have just one 2 on the table, then spam 4 in corners. Best( lowest ) sco
