what's the total running time? ms/sec/minutes/hours? is it heavy IO bound?

The 3x speed increase is interesting. Do you have any further details?

If you already know the language, try the standard library. it's very good to read.

agree with this. the whole situation is just bonkers.

facebook's credibility is 0.

thank you

what are the stressors? mechanical failure, too much kinetic energy in the waves?

what about vertical turbines in the water & bolted to the sea floor?

back of an envelope would be fine also

it would also make sense to build new command line tools to complement coreutils...

Dude it’s really good

CRUD yes, algorithms no

Windows Odyssey

what about some optimism?

i think that was 1732

Your original point was that Doom was some huge watershed moment for gaming where PCs and the Internet gained prominence.

No, someone mentioned that mortal kombat and doom were examples of counter culture, and as someone living in rural Australia in the early 90s, I agreed.

While id was certainly an Internet aware company in 1993 most consumers were not.

Right, so you agree? This thread is about counter culture, and your talking about generic internet usage facts and % of playstation sales when it went mainstream. I played Wolf and Doom as shareware in Australia when they were released, including Kali.

Fair. But there is also some assumed knowledge of what futures and puts are, no?

Shareware and distribution of the game through the internet was a watershed moment that helped sell a lot of Wolfenstein and doom in 1992 and 1993. It is doubtful that a company like Nintendo would distribute a game like doom. PS was a few years after that. Are these statements correct, or hyperbole?

DOOM

Now we’re talking. Doom was a massive deal because of the violence (as you mentioned), but also because it moved entertainment revenue away from MSM and onto PC’s and the internet.

Yeah because WSB uses another language that many do not know, or care to know.

Agree - and People should also be aware who funds these sites. Especially reddit.

Yep, or self hosted sites

pour one out for AIM

what year though?

another vector here is the WSL

Well that sounds like dependency nightmare.

circle back

Perfect example.

And now we have SIMD/AVX-512, as well as the M1 ... the compilers/runtimes need to be able to output the optimized instructions to make applications really fly.

Also, OP photoshop might be slow because it's dialing into the cloud?

With the hardware being multiple times faster, why doesn't software follow suit?

Because software has to be written in a way that leverages the new hardware. The optimization is not automatic. If you haven't read this[1] then it may provide some insight.
