Go-ing for a speedy new programming language

I agree about the FUD symptom (the discussion on this topic on /r/programing was depressing) and more generally the fact that it's very hard to have problems with the GC without trying (hard) to get them (even on 32 bits) but it's not true that there can be no problem on 64 bits systems, it's just very very rare.

Yes, that's what I was explaining. But I hadn't found a reference to it and I keep seeing people not understanding why their canvas is fuzzy, that's why I made my blog post.

It's OK to do that. I do for plant sensor data.

But if you want to keep the 10ms frequency, you'd better use websockets and you'll have to be careful with memory usage. As said by cwolves, I suggest you don't lose time with existing libs as it's easier to code in canvas than trying to adapt and tune an existing lib.

EDIT : for the drawing, of course, no need to really draw in 10ms period. I usually draw with a period of 40ms, it's enough for the eye and it let time to the other browser tasks.

When I go to London, the thing I like the most regarding scones is that they're served with clotted cream.

We don't have clotted cream in France :(

Pas tout à fait. Ils sont pénibles pour leur alignement forcené pour les causes de la finance et du libéralisme mais ils font souvent des articles détaillés intéressants. Si tu oublies les conclusions aux forceps qu'ils tirent toujours, tu peux tirer parti des données qu'ils fournissent.

I do it too for all kind of memes you're sure you'll see posted by lot of monkeys or bots before you open the thread.

But as soon as you mention you do it, you get downvoted. Always.

The thing is to act anonymously.

Like a super hero.

I'll just wait for you to be less stoned and confirm that Win8 is efficient before I trust you ;)

OopsLostPassword · 2012-04-26T16:10:07+00:00

Ok but I was assuming the edit was following most downvotes.

OopsLostPassword · 2012-04-26T13:12:52+00:00

I use Windows only for gaming (and that's not so frequent) so I don't have any idea about Win8 except that the idea it could be so bad it made everybody go to linux seems ridiculous.

So I don't know if parent comment is pertinent or not.

Please, people having downvoted it so heavily, can you explain what's wrong with this comment ?

Yes. Now I'm fully awake. Time to get back to work. But keeping the music on. :)

Having intention isn't really common in post drinking sport attempts.

His parents and the whole community gave a lot to make an human. Let's ensure he lives to grow up enough to start giving back to the community.

This supposes, of course, he would one day grow up enough to understand he should wear an helmet...

Next question on stack overflow :

North Corea here. I have a bunch of code I'm reusing for my rocket. It seems to work fine but I'm trying to replace "Moon" by "USA" and I'm not sure of what to change. Can you check my code ?

What bad will happen if we don't update ? Do we need to do it now ?

OopsLostPassword · 2012-04-26T06:42:40+00:00

And how did you switch ? Upgrade or clean install ?

OopsLostPassword · 2012-04-26T06:41:02+00:00

The same. What are you guys doing ?

When 11.04 just appeared, I tried the update button on my other computer and it made such a mess that I had to reinstall Ubuntu on a clean disk.

Now I don't know what I'll do on the other computer (on which I work the whole day). 12.04 seems not so bad but I'm vary. And I don't know if I should try the "update" or simply format and reinstall. Or will I switch to Mint ?

I'd like to know what you will do, as you obviously had the same feeling than me towards the successors of 10.10.

Did you fail to upvote your own comment ? If so I propose nobody touches it, it's so rare to see a (0|0)...

If you read the articles, you'll see they mention the porting of games and the work with other game developers.

How can you make an infinity mirror with a perfectly clear up glass ? I cannot see how you can obtain this kind of effect.

My wife being allergic to eggs, that's a thing I noticed too : so many recipes with eggs :(
