Yes, it's generally quite a bit nicer. It's not as nice as I hoped, but it's better. The old APIs are JSONAPI-style.

The main disappointment is that input types are not nearly as expressive as output types.

It makes it easier to get started, and you can often kinda-ish reuse some effort from your webpage at the cost of bad performance and non-native look/feel.

It's a trade-off for me, I use it when the trade-off feels right.

"The Twelve Kingdoms", by Fuyumi Ono. We'll count all the volumes as one.

Maybe I read them at just the right time in just the right place, but if you are in the right mood it tells you a story about leadership, a kernel of intersectionality, and most importantly why it's so hard for leadership figures to change the way they are headed even if they can clearly see that they are heading straight into an iceberg.

There's also an animated TV-series by NHK that I can recommend.

The main thing that's holding me back is the smaller battery, everything else seems pretty good to me.

The SLI bridge is quite slow though, even the updated SLI bridge is just 2GB/s.

Because Cycles is a rendering engine, while FireRays is a ray intersection acceleration library. Cycles could opt to use FireRays for ray intersection if they wanted to, but most uses of FireRays probably could never use Cycles since need a rendering engine with entirely different capabilities (real-time &c.)

Write 'normal' text for example, also if you're including CJK-strings in your app it is kind of nice if they are not rendered as teensy or on top of each other.

Except then you start using floating-point and then the transformations do not work anymore.

> 1 < nan

=> false

> nan > 1

=> false

Considering the physics of EVE: Online, I would be surprised if what you're asking for isn't roughly what EVE: Valkyrie will be.

Due to space-magic in the engines every ship pretty much acts like there is some sort of fluid filling all of space, and EVE is surprisingly non-empty when it comes to obstacles.

While cool, it isn't nearly as cool as the current title (Cxx.jl: C++ interpreter embedded in Julia) implies, since it is not a C++ interpreter. A more reasonable title could be "The Julia C++ Foreign Function Interface" like the subtitle of the project.

Rust is generally awesome.

Yeah, started happening to me last week (roughly?)

Seems like either a shitty business decision, or really terrible QA.
