By the way, I only threw that picture because I liked the background color. I didn't read the text itself.
You sound like some guy screaming everyone should own a horse after the car became popular.
I think that analogy oversimplifies according to the assumption that one is inherently better than the other. OP's point here is that it isn't all better at all.
I think a more accurate analogy would be that the OP is screaming that horse trails, ranches, and farms are being shut down because they don't accommodate cars.
No, what I'm screaming about is that every car owner should visit an airport at least once in their life.
That doesn't make sense, your advocating the opposite, you want people to work on 25 year old tech. For "reasons".
On the contrary, I am in favor of banning computers altogether.
This is the way. Most of the games today run as shit because people doesn't know or care about computer resources management.
Stop using JS/Node for even brewing your coffee and see this problem resolves itself.
Spring 5 has WebFlux, which runs on top of Netty. This is usually how I heat my home.
Hey I know that guy he's me
No, it wasn't me.
I make sure my own web game can run smoothly on crappy hardware. It runs well on my gaming laptop downclocked to 400MHz with a 4x slowdown set by Chrome. It also loads in a couple seconds with a typical crappy Internet connection of 200kbps and >10% packet loss. However, it doesn't run smoothly on my Snapdragon 425 phone or my old Core 2 Duo laptop. Is this my game or just browser overhead?
that's why I've been doing most of my gamedev stuff on an old craptop from 2016.
performance issues become apparent immediately
Yeah, screw CEF, Electron, and webdevs who can't live without those.
I'm training to work in hardware currently. Its my hope that there at least, people still care about min-maxing power vs performance.
My understanding is that hardware companies usually alternate generations: one for performance, one for power. It seems like this is the balance that makes the market happy.
It's really hard.
Wasn't expecting it to be easy. Think it will be much more rewarding though. Already has been thus far.
Edit: wait, that was a pun, wasn't it?
No, it was a palindrome.
Any recommendations for a beginner or hobbiest? I'm going to assume it goes beyond writing more performant code
I started with raspberry pi zero projects. Specifically projects that make use of various GPIO hats like cameras, displays, speakers, etc. At that level, things are still very abstract compared to bare-metal firmware, but you learn some of the basic principles of I/O. Next plan is to read up on circuit design, and start doing more projects with arduino-controlled breadboards.
A lot of it is in the design stage tbf. If features/UI can be cut or simplified then it can make a big difference. Performant code is good and the tech stack you choose also matters.
