There is a nice video by Kaze Emanuar demonstrating N64 easily pushing 300k shaded triangles per second without special optimizations in a game engine:

It might be because he is not using nintendo's sdk anymore, particularly the "microcode" for RSP "coprocessor". Most N64 emulators usually do not emulate RSP properly, but detect which specific nintendo's microcode is used and then emulate it's behavior.

> TFA claims the GeForce 256 was "the world's first GPU", but why not consider the NVidia Riva TNT a real GPU?

GeForce 256 integrated hardware vertex processing (transform and lighting), which Riva TNT and others did not - the CPU had to do this part.

The RCP of the Nintendo 64 was probably the first modern GPU integrating RSP for vertex processing and RDP for rasterization into a single chip.

Biden said this on February 7th. On the 22nd the German Chancellor suspended it's certification.

There's no reason to sabatoge the pipeline when a year before it was Biden who waived sanctions on it. What changed both country's stance was the invasion. Germany became fully onboard with shutting it down after the Ukraine invasion.

Only Russia has anything to gain from such destruction (if it proves to be sabatoge) at this point by keeping the pressure on Europe's energy situation.


@LeSUTHU:

* if you want to design and play around with your grammar (builtin interpreter is very nice to try things out):

* once you want to actually implement your language:

Probably using something like that: https://github.com/xoreaxeaxeax/sandsifter


yeah, it's cited in the paper:

[4] C. Domas. Breaking the x86 ISA.https://www.blackhat.com/docs/us-17/thursday/us-17-Domas-Bre..., Jul. 2017.


Reminded me his cool setup: https://youtu.be/_eSAF_qT_FY?t=1972


Try F#. It's not exactly ocaml, but close enough if you want to stay on windows.


I’d even argue F# might be better than OCaml thanks to the better library support, availability on Win/Mac/Linux and pre-existing multi core support.


I love F#! I have used it professionally for years!

Unfortunately, it has the same problem, but for Linux instead; dot net core is not the same as dot net.


Which issues did you run into? .NET 5 is the same across all operating systems, modulo access to winforms/wpf if you're on windows only.


Or Scala3

Facts and evidence are the Tools Of The Patriarchy. You supposed to shut up and blindly belive. Do not question the western state ideology of progressivism.

(P.S.: as an unbeliver you won't be able to "see" the "Benefits™")


Indeed it has become a new religion. Gad Saad has some reasonably funny youtube videos about it.
