javasux,

Just because the other kids are doing it, that doesn’t make it ok

The text of the LGPL actually imposes some very inconvenient restrictions around static linking:

Convey the Minimal Corresponding Source under the terms of this License, and the Corresponding Application Code in a form suitable for, and under terms that permit, the user to recombine or relink the Application with a modified version of the Linked Version to produce a modified Combined Work, in the manner specified by section 6 of the GNU GPL for conveying Corresponding Source.

www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl-3.0.html#section4

In order to be compliant, you would have to also ship linkable object files of the proprietary application code alongside the executable.

javasux,

I sure hope that’s not American dollars

javasux,

and books in the cupboard

javasux,

dumb is stored in the ears

javasux,

That’s not what a lie detector does lmao

javasux,

Yeah but they just said “lie detector”

ummm no

who sought regime change in England after decades of religious persecution.

In 1604 Fawkes became involved with a small group […] who planned to assassinate the Protestant King James and replace him with his daughter, third in the line of succession, Princess Elizabeth.

javasux,

No I compile my electron apps with -fno-electron

javasux,

But that’s not capitalism, that’s market socialism

javasux,

OshKosh B’gosh lookin ass

javasux,

Horizontal axis is Tumblr/Reddit, vertical axis is Fem/Masc

javasux,

And Air pods, like come on

javasux,

Unfortunately for that, the middle part is gonna have to go negative 😔

javasux,

What a coincidence, so was I

javasux,

That’s not a cowch, that’s a bovench

javasux,

A delayed game is always better than a rushed game, thank you WB Games for letting the developers deliver something they’re happy with

javasux,

blue guy getting stabbed, and his wallet taken

Rule #1 of programming: Write good code first, then measure performance.

Premature optimization is the root of all evil.

javasux,

stop dismissing performance questions

I did not dismiss it, I said measure the performance yourself.

Performance matters, learning about performance matters

Which is why I said you should measure performance. It’s no use waffling about unmeasurable performance gains.

Did they ask if they should optimize, or did they ask which one generates more performant assembly?

To be pedantic, GDScript is an interpreted language, and does not generate bytecode or assembly. This means that the code performance is highly dependent on runtime conditions, and needs to be measured in the place where it’s used.

Maybe they already measured and already knows this is a bottleneck.

If they already measured, then they would know which one is faster, because they measured it.

I swear half the reason every piece of modern software runs like shit is because nobody bothered to learn how to optimize

This is unrelated to what I said, which is “you should measure your performance to see what you need to optimize”.

There’s tons of little “premature” optimizations that you can do that aren’t evil.

And all of these optimizations are just as effective after you measure them to see if they’re needed, and they’re no longer premature.

Estimating time complexity and load size

Accurately estimating the performance impact of a design choice means the optimization is no longer premature. The rule-of-thumb is about using optimizations without taking appropriate time to their overall performance benefit. The particular question asked by the OP is very very unlikely to have any significant performance impact at all, unless it’s in an extremely hot loop running millions of times per frame, at which point you should measure it to see which one is faster in your use case.

javasux,

I am looking respectfully

javasux,

Looks to be a brisket sandwich with cole slaw on it

javasux,

I wonder if they’ve fixed the Radeon 7000 bug where you have to manually set the latency compensation

javasux,

if only there were a good 10-foot interface for Linux that supported the major streaming services

javasux,

The Disney Channel series Wizards of Waverly Place has all the kids competing to keep their magic powers when they enter adulthood

javasux,

oh shit it’s that guy, I didn’t even notice

This is a really good video (and great channel) for anyone who doesn’t know youtu.be/aY985qzn7oI
